Plymouth geocaching

We did some more local geocaching during the week. I've lived here for years and not taken any photos of either the Tamar Bridge (which coincidentally I used to work on) or the Royal Albert Bridge until this walk:

Bellever

A few photos to share from a couple of weeks ago when we went geocaching in Bellever:

Stylish!

White foxglove - we've never seen one of these before!



Three tors

Geocaching last weekend was over three tors ; Lowery Tor, Sharpitor and Leather Tor. There was some pretty rough terrain and lots of clambering over rocks but it was great fun and we covered 5 miles.

I found a couple of sticks en route that the kids used as trekking poles but then ended up buying them proper ones a day later in the outdoors shop.

Anyway here's a few pics from the walk:

Laughter Tor

More geocaching on Sunday which ended up as a 4.5 mile walk!! This time we were up and around Laughter Tor:



After a long and difficult slog uphill LOL!!



Guess who fell over?!



Looking unimpressed!



Matt told Jess this was where the Seven Dwarves live!!



Me and stepping stones do not mix and I had to go over these twice!!!!

Cadover

We went out later than normal today but still walked about 3.5 miles and found 4 geocaches. The walk back to the car was a bit of an adventure scrabbling over rocks and barbed wire fences, bogs and tree trunks!!

Burrator

Ok - so we seem to have become fans of geocaching recently which has, in turn, led to me taking tons of photos. Here are some from when we went to Burrator:

I seem to be a bit late with my blogging recently....blame it on Wimbledon and the school summer fayre!!!

Last week's walk

Just a few photos to share from last weekend's walk with the kids:

My 3 "angels" LOL!

We're hoping to try geocaching for the first time this weekend (weather permitting) so may be back with more photos soon.
