Geocaching outing in Wales
We had the first outing of aber-cachers yesterday. Me Anna and Morgan (forcesofnature) and Dave and Sarah (IdleRocks) headed off from Ynyslas, filled up with diesel in Aberystwyth then headed south to Aberaeron where we met up with Tinkerbell, Lesley (Red Kite) and Dan and Vanya (The Dancing Samurai’s).
The first cache of the day was a new one hidden by aber-cacher member Jennie.m. It involved a nice walk along a flat track next to the River Aeron. A really nice, family friendly cache with lots to see.. A nice river, plenty of birdlife and some spring flowers just beginning to bloom. Morgan set the pace but the cache was found easily.
next up we intended to do a cache called ‘Of Gorse you can see the sea’, but a couple of the crew were a little hesistant about part of the path so we knocked that one on the head (Well, Dan did quite literally!) and headed off instead to a cache called Craig Ddu on the coast path aboce Cei Bach. Morgan fell asleep as we arrived at the car park for this one, so Anna stayed in the car with him and the rest of us headed up the muddy path to the cache which provided some lovely views of Cardigan Bay and the beach below.
After finding the cache we headed back down, found Anna and Morgan and then had a little play on the beach. A good day out and good to finally put some faces to the names of the aber-cachers.
