Glad to hear you got one Teirae! I have looked at a few around here and this weekend we try some of the quieter places to get the hang of it a little. There is one site I drive past every day but it is way too exposed for a first try; very tempting though.

Wow really? Do you have Loch for a lecturer or something? LOL... that's so cool.

My DH has been wanting to try this for ages...... Maybe you've re-inspired us to get into it

The lecturer is really into it, I'd never actually heard of it until I saw this thread and then noticed it in our unit guide.
According to her it's a really great way to get kids engaged in mathematics.
It has me all intrigued now

By any chance is her name Birgit? The math lecturing world is fairly small, so is the geocaching world.

I found the cutest little ninja figurines to put in the caching boxes and was so disappointed yesterday at my first ninja drop - there was already a ninja in there!!!
I hate it when I think I'm being original and someone beats me to it lol
We ended up only finding one out of four attempts yesterday - mostly due to it being overcast and my phone kept losing reception - grrr!

We found two! One on the weekend with the family and another on Tuesday. The one on Tuesday we tried to find Saturday but there were too many muggles to have a proper look. I came back on Tuesday with DS2 and found it pretty quick.

Join the Aussie one too, as not all are listed on one site.
I can't work out /remember how to find people but I'm there as Teirae if you can find me.
I really need to do a day getting back into it... we went away for the weekend on our 'babymoon'/ anniversery, and I knew there were millions around but didn't get one, I waste alot of oppitunities to get some, and then feel guilty about it. but its hard to do the tourism fun thing, AND geocache in one go (itms). like you need trips away just for geocaching and then another one just to see the sites (or atleast the ones we are interested it =P)

Sooo..DD & I went hunting this afternoon! Our virgin expedition! She thought it was great, although not very discreet because she kept talking about finding treasure
I think it's a great way to get out and about and enjoy our natural environment, especially a good 'family bonding time' thing.
I don't know how I'd feel about driving all the way to one and not being able to look for it though :/
I do think it's quite hilarious non-geocachers are referred to as muggles..LOL. I thought that meant you're just not a wizard
Shall see how long our enthusiasm lasts. At least it's not quite so hard trying to blend in and look like you're
Doing nothing with a toddler!
That's great Storm. If we were doing a long drive one we'd make sure we'd pick an area where there was a few. So it wasn't so bad if we didn't find one or two lol.
