The Secret of Limestone

By: road_runner susi Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 3.5 Container: Not chosen

Fantastic earth cache! It was the first time I went out searching for a cache without a physical container, jumping and climbing rocks, sometimes with a bit of danger. These are so much fun, they are my favorites. I was a bit scared by a seagull that was flying and screaming over me for long minutes, while I checked my PDA for the EC questions. There is also a small part where one has to keep the fear of heights away from the mind, thus forcing us to overcome our fears. Great. Thank you for that. I put the reference points coordinates on the GPS and followed them religiously. I am not sure Tomtom would send me somewhere else if I pointed it to the GZ, but I recommend others to follow the instructions on the listing. Thanks again for the cache.

Alchemy 101 - DP/EC32

By: danieloliveira Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 2.5 Container: Not chosen

Cache encontrada e PH medido na companhia de Sicapelo, Hugo.jesus, Al-Garb e Ajsa Golfinha. Estes últimos, como fotógrafos de serviço, farão o upload das fotos comprovativas.

A água teimava em não mudar de cor, mantinha-se num azul escuro, mas como já era de noite, até pode ser que fosse por não termos luz adequada.

Obrigado aos owners por nos proporcionarem esta aventura.

Tendo sido autorizado pelo owner, que nos explicou de viva voz os fen ómenos visíveis e não só, aqui vai o found.

Quantas vezes passamos junto a fenómenos naturais e não os apreciamos devidamente por os não sabermos interpretar.

Obrigado por adicionarem mais algum c onhecimento ao geocaching.

Azure Window

By: Equipo Wacosta Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Not chosen

Found this one with my girlfriend Sicapelo and one other portuguese couple, who will probably turn in to geocaching. This is probably one of the most impressive places I've been. And it has a geocache too, what could be better ? SMILIE The Blue Window (together with the Blue Hole) is a very impressive and lovely natural monument. Watching people scuba diving nearby fill us with envy. We visited Gozo on a guided tour. This was nice, except for the 2 souvenir shops they made us visit :( I hope to come back sometime and dive in the area. Thanks for the cache.
