As some of you may know we have been out and about lately Geocaching. Out we go into the mid-day heat and climb mountains, scramble through forests and along rocky tracks just to find a Tupperware box with a few odds and ends inside and sign the visitors book. Why? Because it’s fun and you get to see some great scenery into the bargain. What is Geocaching? It’s like a global game of hide & seek. All over the world there are people hiding caches at this very moment and then they will release the coordinates onto the internet so that people with GPS devices can go out and search for them. Where do you look for the coordinates? Try http://www.geocaching.com and then do a search for places near you, there are bound to be some close by. We started off on a couple close to us to get the idea and then continued to go looking for caches close to places we like to go so we could do a search en-route. So far we have found eleven and seen some great places we would otherwise have missed, and pretty soon we will also start to place caches for others to find.
I will create a page on our website all about Geocaching soon where you can go and see what it’s all about and then hopefully we can set caches of our own for guests to go searching for. First timers can borrow all the equipment from us and we will give guidance and even BIG clues to a test cache nearby so you can try something easy for starters not too far away from Molino Charrara. Then when you finally go out on your own into the valley to do one on your own we’ll send you off with a map and a packed lunch and if you have a successful day there will be a bottle of wine waiting for you when you get back.
If you are interested talk to us, we can do you a good package to get you started.
