Changes

It's been a long time since I last posted here (over a year) and a lot has happened during that time. Some changes for us (jobs, schools, outlooks) but we have still been very busy Gecaching here in France. We've gone from 2000 finds to 3000 and beyond. It's not about the numbers for us but we really do like to get out there and look for quality caches so, little by little, we naturally "rack them up". Our latest find as I write this is "La Pierre des Sages" by Terra-aventura. Not an official Geocache on the site but a cache by the local tourist board which has been much fun for the scouts (and scoutette) all the same.

We've been working our way around France from our base in the Haute-Vienne and trying to visit as many departments as possible. We took a trip to Euro-Disney last summer and went on to find the oldest cache in Europe, in Belgium for a milestone. We also went back to England earlier this year to do a few virtuals and we got out furthest west find at Land's End. We've been to three Mega events to date and a host of other great events this year. A huge thanks to the organisers of those.

Geoscouts 3000 - Le Tresor de Santiago (Limoges)

So what now? Well next year we hope to return to Italy which we (John and I) visited in 2004 and do some exciting caches there. We'd also like to put Portugal on the map and maybe a few other countries. In the mean time we hope to find a few more near here in order to get our annual New Year's Day Milestone at around the 4000 mark. Let's see what happens.
