I seem to be doing an awful lot of caching these days, but
seriously, I don’t mind. ;-)
Today I was in Albany Creek and had the day to myself, so
after finishing a book that I was reading for the book club I decided to go out
and find a few caches in the area.
There was a series of 8 caches that I could walk, one
opposite the grounds and one on the way, so that’s where I stopped first.
Community Church
For the Community
Church I wanted to find a
parking spot off the road, but could not get to the cache from the parking lot,
so parked on the roadside, hoping I would find the cache quickly, which I
did. Signed the log, took a picture and
that was that.
The next 8 caches were all in a park and not too far from
each other. I generally took 10 minutes
from finding one to the next, and, including the walking time to and from the
car I think I managed it in just over an hour-and-a-half.

And this is what I found in every container:
Scrabble letters |
There’s also a Scrabble Scramble Finale, but to find the
last one I had to find Scrabble letters in each cache plus the question of
which the answer could be formed by sorting the letters. Suffices to say that I took note of all the
letters, but didn’t notice the questions!
In the end I didn’t have to go back for them, because after having had a
good look at all the letters (and being an avid scrabble player) I did find all
the words anyway. The numbers of the
words formed the coordinates, after I’d done some calculations, and at the
first check discovered that they were correct.
So, next time when I will be in the area I can go back in search of the final
one.
Opposite the spot where my car was parked another cache was
hidden.
Not Chinaman’s Creek
This also was a reasonably easy one, for tall people that
is, and I could sign the log, take pictures and next I was on my way home.
In the meantime I am filling some spare hours writing this
blog update and solving some geocaching puzzles. Another addiction!
Till next time.
