β€œA few months ago, I found myself belly-crawling through the dirt under a merry-go-round. Looking up at the underside of this playground staple, I reflected on how I willingly came to be in such a position for the first time in over thirty years. I grunted, contorting my six-foot, four-inch, 42 year-old, slightly-heavier-than-it-should-be frame to better study the merry-go-round’s support structure. As I lay prostrate, hoping I wouldn’t knock my head on something, I spied my goal–a small metal case that had once held cigarettes but now held a tiny slip of paper and a pencil. Victory! I found the Geocache.”

β€œI tried my first find yesterday, after half an hour of scrambling around under an abandoned stair case sweating in 35 degree heat whilst being eaten alive by ants and mosquitoes, I reluctantly gave up. It was only when I went to log it as DNF I realised no one had found it for a while now and had probably been removed. This morning I decided to try my luck again at a different location. I drove my motorbike up through the jungle roads to a beautiful view point, and after a little searching I found a string connected to a small plastic container under a small stair way. The log book was a little worn, but filled with 100’s of entry’s. The cache has been active since 2010! It was a very proud moment jotting my name and date down in the book.”
