Hello lovely makers, creators and
all round lovely people!
Well, the weather is slowly
improving. The days are getting longer
and the spring bulbs are poking their pretty little heads up to see if its safe
to come out and bloom. So what better
time to think about taking up a new hobby – a hobby that gets you outside as a
family and best of all, is FREE!
Many of you may not have heard of
geocaching but it’s sweeping the nation.
All you need is a car to get you there and a SmartPhone to show you
where the “caches” are – think of it as a high-tech treasure hunt.
Large public open spaces, parks, and
town centres have hidden geocache sites.
The National Trust and English Heritage are also on board with some of their
properties and estates having several caches hidden around the grounds.
Lily The Lamb is a recent convert to
geocaching and enjoyed a spring day out at Attingham Park in Shropshire, wandering
the beautiful woodland, looking for GPS co-ordinates and finding caches.
To find out more about geocaching,
go to http://www.geocaching.com/ - you
can download the app and even research places before you leave the house to
make sure there are plenty of caches to find once you arrive at your destination!
