Headed off today to find the other two close geocaches. Score for the day was two for two, so things went well!

First one was at the old ruined kirk near my home.

This geocache included a series of puzzles - answered by wandering around the kirk and graveyard looking for certain things. After the answers were found, they were used to work out the next set of co-ordinates. Just as we were working out the numbers - we had to hide from a short but heavy deluge of hailstones.

It turns out that the co-ordinates were 5 minutes walk BACK the way we had come. So we decided to put it off till we headed back home.

Our next stop was the Braefoot battery, which i’ve visited a number of times over the years. I used to play there as a child, and i’ve visited recently to take photographs.

After a short search i spotted this:



A fairly large cache, which had obviously been visited by some kids in the past, made evident by the giraffe among other things.



I took some kind of Russian fabric patch, and left a little smiley badge - as well as my first travel bug!

On the way back we checked out the co-ordinates from the first cache, and ended up finding a small cache:



Which, as is apparently “usual”, included a golf ball!

I took a small yellow bouncy ball which had an amusing face drawn on it, and left an LED keychain torch.

All in all a constructive day.
