Dan Q found GC6BN1T Mount View 1 – Penzance Sailing Club

This checkin to GC6BN1T Mount View 1 - Penzance Sailing Club reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.

After a bit of a hunt and put off by the recent DNFs I was about to give up on this one when a passer by hinted that I should be looking “bayl sbhe fgrcf njnl”. TFTC!

Dan Q posted a note for GC7Q96B Oxford’s Long-Lost Zoo

This checkin to GC7Q96B Oxford's Long-Lost Zoo reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.

I’ve exchanged messages with Taradoherty and it sounds like their previous log (suggesting that the cache is missing) was posted in error. I’ve no reason to believe that there’s anything wrong with the cache.

Note #11690

#challengerobin is coming close to completion as Robin looks to be under a mile away and heading the right direction! https://danq.me/2018/11/09/challenge-robin-2/#waypoint-relubbus

Robin approaches Relubbus.
It might not be clear to him yet that there’s a river in the way, but I’m sure he’ll find a bridge. Or swim.

Note #11686

Robin’s found the fourth clue (and a devious puzzle box) in #challengerobin 2. Now can he make it to the accomodation or must I drink all the beer by myself? https://danq.me/2018/11/09/challenge-robin-2/#waypoint-cudden

Note #11679

#challengerobin Robin’s making slower progress up-hill now as he tries to find a mystery box identified only by its distance, like #geocaching with one eye tied behind your back, I guess. https://danq.me/2018/11/09/challenge-robin-2/#waypoint-turnpike

Note #11674

Sprinting along the coast, Robin threw himself into #challengerobin and made it to St. Michael’s Mount and back before the causeway was consumed by the waves. His next challenge? Find a secret location knowing only its real-time distance from him: https://danq.me/2018/11/09/challenge-robin-2/#waypoint-longrock

Note #11669

Robin made it to Penzance and #challengerobin can continue! Receiving his first, well second, clue, he’s racing the tide to St. Michael’s Mount and across the causeway. Can he make it? https://danq.me/2018/11/09/challenge-robin-2/#waypoint-station

Note #11661

After a series of setbacks, I’m determined to enable #challengerobin to continue. I’m off to meet Robin off his train and get him on-track, skipping the first clue. And his brother Owen’s joining in, too… https://danq.me/2018/11/09/challenge-robin-2/#waypoint-plan

Note #11652

#challengerobin After the sleeper train was cancelled Robin ended up on a series of regular trains and now isn’t expected in Penzance until several hours after originally planned. Some modifications may be needed… https://danq.me/2018/11/09/challenge-robin-2/#waypoint-curveball

Note #11645

#challengerobin hit a disaster early on: Robin was to find sleeper train tickets in a puzzle box, but a growing storm (see pic) has caused the train to be cancelled. What now? https://danq.me/2018/11/09/challenge-robin-2/#waypoint-disaster

Note #11640

#challengerobin pushed-off in earnest with a blue-plaque-treasure trail around London and then back to Paddington station… but it looks like things are about to go very wrong… https://danq.me/2018/11/09/challenge-robin-2/#waypoint-gardens

Note #11636

#challengerobin Robin finally made it to his contact and has been given a clue – a map to a Kensington street and instructions on what to do when he gets there: https://danq.me/2018/11/09/challenge-robin-2/#waypoint-gbk
