    Found GC2WTGE 8~ NUDDSY MEGA RAMBLE

    This checkin to GC2WTGE 8~ NUDDSY MEGA RAMBLE reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. A challenging and courageous scramble by the eldest (who turned 10 yesterday!) and I (who turned 43 today!) up the slippery wet leaves to reach the GZ. I stopped to double check the proximity and meanwhile โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC2WTGN 9~NUDDSY MEGA RAMBLE reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. An extended search by three adults, two children, and a dog failed to find this cache.

    This checkin to GC5TF25 Mystic Abbey reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Out for a walk on my 43rd birthday, left the kids playing with their other parents in the (beautiful) ruins of the abbey or I hacked my way around to the GZ.

    Found GC2HDCZ Tom Burts Cache 4

    This checkin to GC2HDCZ Tom Burts Cache 4 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Found while walking into High Wycombe to work after dropping my canine caching-companion (pictured) off at the nearby veterinary hospital for an operation.

    Found GC54E29 WAG 16 - Elvendon Valley

    This checkin to GC54E29 WAG 16 - Elvendon Valley reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. The poor little geopup's only got tiny legs, and the 8km we've walked so-far has got her pretty tired-out, so this'll be the last cache of the series before we go and find ourselves some โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC54E1W WAG 15 - Action! reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Sometimes the geo-sense "just works". This was one of those moments. I was approaching the area and checking the distance. Then I walked straight to a likely location. Then I picked up the cache. Done and โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC54DR7 WAG 9 - Sausages & Bacon! reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Worra lorra porkers!

    This checkin to GC54DTF WAG 10 - Track-able reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. The geopup and I tried a couple of likely hiding places before we found this one. A nice-sized container and well-suited to its hiding place, here, TFTC!

Between nearby GC7QC7R, which acts as a spur to this series, and OK00F7, which sits on (and predates) this series, I was feeling confident of a find here... but after an extended search the geopup and โ€ฆ

    Found GC7QC7R Lothal

    This checkin to GC7QC7R Lothal reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. As a quick diversion from the nearby WAG series, the geopup and I meandered out this way to find this cache. Once I was in the vicinity of the cache something stood out to me as unusual, so we โ€ฆ
