Reintroduction to Geocaching

It's been a couple of months now since my last find!

So, it seemed fitting to attend the 'CacheWalker Introduction to Geocaching' event with tarmacjohn, who kindly offered me a lift, to reintroduce myself to caching!

We, along with Wrighty and Walk Tall, turned the event (aimed to introduce newbies to caching) in to a proper CacheWalker as we set out to find some of the local caches, forming a nice circular walk. We found several caches, as well as picking up the new ones by Gackt, some sound hides. However, our route was disrupted by a footpath which was closed off due to an angry hornet nest said to be in a tree further down the path. As a consequence, we continued to the road instead, and found another cache there - so I'm not complaining!

The event was located at the Cotswold Water Park, and what a nice place it is: the lakes were very picturesque under the sun, once again making an appearance at a CacheWalker event.

Overall, it was a thoroughly enjoyable day, spent in excellent company, finding some good caches in nice spots, all before returning to the event for plenty more geochat and trackable spotting.
Well done Gackt for a great event! Here's to the next one... Twixmas, anyone??

Again, no photos here! I PROMISE to have my camera at the ready for the next post!
