International Geocaching Day nearly slipped by without me making a find as it wasn’t all that well advertised. If it wasn’t for me reading a reference to it on Facebook, I would have missed it all together.
There was a multi cache down at Frank Smith Park that I hadn’t done yet so off I went. The cache was Thanks Frank and involved finding 5 points while walking 1.2 km around the Park.
Geocaching initiated Challenges yesterday and although there has been a lot of discussion over their introduction, I carried out a couple of the Worldwide Challenges while on the walk – 10000 Fewer Pieces of Litter and Ecosystems Around the World.
I also checked up on one of my Geocaches here – 10 Years of Geocaching – Coromandel Valley as the council is doing some work putting in a cycleway right next to the cache. At this time the cache is still safe.
The last thing on the agenda was to deploy a Munzee called Frank Smith Park. What is a munzee you ask?
Munzee is a real world scavenger hunt game where items are found in the real world and captured using your smartphone and makes use of QR codes.
