geocaching | Nurture Self 365

“Nothing is impossible, the word itself says ‘I’m possible’!” Audrey Hepburn

We hiked a few more beaches today finding a few more spots that we’d never been to before. Some of the trails are quite steep and slippery as we’ve had more rain the last few days. We did a little geo-caching along the way, dropping a couple of trackables that my son sent over with me. Geo-caching is how we’ve discovered quite a few out-of the way places on the Island that are not traveled by the average tourist.

It’s a fun activity that can be done all over the world. I highly recommend it. It’s a wonderful activity for kids as well. They love the excitement of “the hunt” and it gets them outside in the fresh air, getting exercise and quality time with Mom and Dad. It’s a GREAT family activity any time of the year.

These days all you really need is a cel phone with GPS tracking on it – or for the more serious Geo-Cache’r purchase an actual GPS unit. We haven’t done that yet – but after this trip when we’ve had a few times without 3G access . . . I’m seriously considering purchasing one.
