a special date, and lots of events happening. we chose to go to a geo-caching event in Auckland domain. our first social event, and we had a great time. met lots of fellow geo cachers, and able to put faces to the names we have seen signed in logbooks and on the website
.
It was a fun day, and the couple that organised it, had gone to great lengths, and put in place a type of scavenger hunt around the park, using GPS to find way points and solve clues to gain points. it was a beaut day, and quite busy in the park, the locals must have wondered what was happening, seeing lots of adults (and kids) racing thru the park, rooting in the bushes, groping statues, and generally looking dodgy! we teamed up with this Dutch guy and his 8 year old son, and we were amazed to find that we actually won it! go team Howick!
