The schedule for today is taking a walk in Tampa. First we stopped at the Tampa University. The site is beautiful. The main building takes me back to St-Petersburg Russia. We set our next goal on the Riverwalk. Another great area to walk. Before returning to our Jeep, we needed to stop at the Amalie Arena. We are Canadians, so hockey is a part of our DNA. A superb day in Tampa.

Merry Christmas Smile ...since ours was yesterday, was the perfect day to go geocaching....stores/businesses closed so not much traffic, not many muggles and places to park all over! Never been to this park before so took a stroll around. Very clean. Enjoyed the time we spent here. This artwork does look like lightning if you stand on your head. Thanx.
 
What a wonderful location for a virtual! Today was THE day to grab this, minimal traffic, minimal muggles and parking. Thank you for brining us to this wonderful location but especially thanks for keeping this oldie alive! I chose the virtual specifically for the placed by date and that the find was a virtual.

Happy Thanksgiving. We're visiting from Mississauga Canada and are really happy to be able to celebrate our second Thanksgiving of the year. We took advantage of the lightly travelled roadways today to venture down from Palm Harbour where we're staying with my brother and sister in law, The four of us ventured out to find seven virtuals. This was our fourth stop. The university grounds were quiet as we found a super close empty parking lot. We walked around and explored the grounds and the lightning bolts. I'm adding to your favourite totals and will add a picture too. TFTC

Neat location. Would love to see a lightning strike.

Over Thanksgiving week, Nosirrah52 and I are setting out to find caches in about 100 counties with the goal of passing 1000 total U.S. Counties with a cache find (out of 3142). Plus finishing off our 14th state - Florida. If everything goes according to plan we will find more than 10,000 favorite points, fill some Jasmer and Fizzy spots and if we are lucky get some FTFs. thanks to all the hiders and maintainers of caches so we can have this great fun.

Davidlee G and I decided to take a short Vacation/Birthday Geotrip close to home. We aimed to do a little loop up the Florida West Coast, across the center part, and then head south on our way back to home base in Broward County.

We had a great time!!! We had several unscheduled stops... You know, the ones when someone says: "There is a cache to the right of us.... or There is a cache to the left.... or In about 1/2 mile away...." We also had a couple of: "Do you want to get one more cache before we find a hotel to stay at?.... There is a cache at "that" restaurant... Do you wanna find the cache and the have lunch/dinner there?' All in all we had a BLAST!!!!

We mainly targeted EarthCaches (20 planned, got to do 18 and aborted searching for 2 because of time constraint) and Virtuals (31 planned, got to do 24, we DNF's one, and aborted searching for 6 because of time constraints again). Logging requirements have been sent for all when required. As always, every cache took us to places we would have never seen if it was not for geocaching. We thank every CO for their efforts finding the locations and keeping up with the hides.

Every EarthCache took us to amazing places and taught us the interesting peculiarities of each location. We are thankful to each CO for raising awareness to each unique geological feature... may it be for: how it affects us, how is being restored, how it is being preserved, or if it a place in need of attention. Again, we Thank you!!!

Every Virtual took us to awesome places we would have never visited or learned about them if it was not for your effort. Excellent sights, much learned, and appreciated.

The multi we decided to search for, was GREAT... ( Yeah... one of those: There is a cache to your left... Lets go get it!!!!...) I invite you to Go Find It!!! GC4AA3T-Library cache - Bibliophilia. It is GREAT !!!!!

The Traditional and Letterbox Hybrids caches we searched for were excellent... some easy... and some had us going in circles... but we FOUND THEM!!!! Thanks for keeping our geostreak alive in case we failed on any logging requirement of alternate finds.... I'm at about a 910 day streak of finds Smile

Very Interesting Virtual... I was and still a little confused... but much was learned... Both structures are AMAZING

Thanks for the hides, the journey and the Smile

Thanks to an helpful taxi driver we managed to visit a couple of Virtuals around the Tampa area during our short stay. This was a nice interesting area to have a quick look around. Pity we couldn't be here at night. Thanks for bringing us here !

Thanks KB !! Fav Point !
