Our First Find!

After reading about Geocaching on several of the blogs I hop across months ago the other day I finally got around to looking up some local caches. I was really pleased to find for urban areas you know well you don't need a GPS device to pinpoint a cache. So off we went yesterday afternoon with details of several caches in our local area armed with some small trinkets to swop. After failing to find the first 2 and with all of us feeling just a little bit silly poking around in the undergrowth we carried on to the 3rd none too confident of finding anything. But yay! after only a few minutes Erin found it. The kids loved looking inside and deciding what to swop. Unfortunately that was the only success of the day but we will be off later today for another treasure hunting session. This is definately going to turn into a whole family hobby....looks like we will be investing in some Geocaching kit!

Our first find.

(Rubbish photo but the light was pants in all the dense undergrowth!)
