Thats it. Totally got the bug. Just back from the Outwoods where I found my first Geocache: Out of the Woods 4: A New Hope.
Its days are numbered, so Mini Moby can get a mention as part of this leg of the world tour...
Tried to be intelligent about it, and not just follow the arrow, so I looked at the map (not terribly brilliant on the iPhone app, but better than nothing) and worked out the paths I wanted to follow. Got all excited as I got closer. Found a likely looking spot that matched the clues in the description..
Moved a bit of wood and there it was!!
Ever so slightly pleased with myself (and my iPhone)
One of the traditions of Geocaching is swapping. You take something that someone has left in the cache and replace it with something of similar value. I left a tube of blue glitter (random, I know, but I haven't yet been thing shopping, and couldn't bear to part with any Lego) and took a butterfly eraser for my collection..
Was disappointed to find that the Travel Bug (Mrs Lionel Ritchie) that the website said was there, was, in fact, not. Oh well, Ms Ritchie won't be going to Norfolk then. Hopefully I can collect one there to bring back. Time for hot chocolate and a nap now.
