Glebe Hill

Monday , 10 July 2017 We had the task of looking after our grandson today and decided a walk on Glebe Hill to search for the geocaches would be one of the things we would do. It was a cool day but by good luck  it came out sunny for the duration of the walk. Glebe Hill Walk 1 We lent a GPS to our grandson and he found it after suggestion. Glebe Hill Walk 2 Not hard to find and grandson was a bit quicker working out the likely spot. Glebe Hill Walk 3 Went round in a circle before honing to the right spot Glebe Hill Walk 4 Looked about to no avail.

Tranmere Walk

A bad start ended with a bad finish but in between we managed to get a decent score along the Tranmere tracks. We are residents of the western shore and whilst standing in sunshine we could look back to our home front near the mountain to see showers falling. Wise Men 2 We had two tries at this, the first search for the day but without success and lots of dog owning muggles about. On the return walk we looked from near the path, then read a few logs to discover it was a bit further away than an arms length. Bus Stop Nano Found as described, but could not extract log, even with tweezers. Concreate Took a bit of searching made harder by all the activity about, including a swimming race. A great container. Left a TB. Post Cap Saw a spot that matched the hint and also read the August 2013 log entry mentioning that a tool was needed to get at the cache. We couldn't budge anything so...

The Eastern Shoreline

Wednesday  5 September 2012 We decided to do a few caches on the eastern shore between Bellerive and Howrah. The pleasant sun and temperatures were predicted to deteriorate about midday, so a morning start was made with the finish to be a fish meal at the café at Bellerive Beach.   Victoria Esplanade The first on the list and when we got the hint in our minds correctly, it did not take Sue long to grab it.   The Russians are Coming! Up the steps and along the bank soon brought us to the cache, where it was spotted by Sue. Quite a bit of water in the moat.   The Bluff A woman busy in the garden fronting the street caused us to be a bit cautious. Sue followed the hint and a small laugh meant she had the cache. We liked the hiding method.   Lets Get Physical 2 We walked past this thinking that we may well check it on the way back. On the return trip, someone was at the GZ and left quickly and hopped in a car, so we walked on to the café. After lunch went bac...
