In the container, several centimeters water was contained.
I drained water and exchanged the bag of the log.
Since it shut strongly, the next caller needs to do his best and open!

Well the world didn't end after all.What better way to start the new Mayan calendar and my next 1000 caches,than with a puzzle.Needed help from the CO,but it was worth it.Nice container,although I can't figure out how the log could be damp in that thing.TFTC.pattayadave
Back in Guam for just a day and decided to go for a few geocaches. I solved this one in my hotel before heading out. I would love to have been a fly on wall watching blygoat set this cache container without drawing suspicion. Another great cache.
Out on a 100 Cache Dash with DDRAMS and Oki-dude today. Started at 7:45 am and hit cache number 102 at 6:15 pm. Cache was completely water logged. Oki-dude dried it out while I fixed the cover. Hopefully, it won't leak as much. Replaced log. Number 97 of 102.
This one had us going in Le Circe'les for a while, then Oki-dude put his finger on it!

Found with DDRAMS and the very, very generous support of Blygoat.
We did all the work ourselves, but Blygoat did the driving and knew which caches to grab and which caches to pass. DDRAMS and I took him up on his amazing offer to assist any cachers who wished it to set the record of finding 100 caches in one day on Guam. Both DDRAMS and I had the same record, previously, of 42 caches in one day.
We certainly beat that record today!
Thanks for the Cache.

Fun cache to find after solving the puzzle.

Decided to do some caching in Tumon today and this was my first find of the day. Thanks for the cache
The friend who got me started or should I say addicted to geocaching told me about this one, and said it was a must do. Quick easy find once we figured out the coords,got this with the group on our last night on Guam. Great idea for a hide. SL L: PT TFTC
GOTYA! found this one again with WIHarleyouple, Kawehi, Kden-Laterz, and another friend. AWESOME! TFTC-TN-SL
Solved this sometime ago. Glad this is still active. Really nice container. Had a little water inside, but log is dry. TFTC
Had solved this one a couple of nights ago, but didn't get down to this area until today. Nice hide. TFTC!
Was able to get the cache out today but ended up damaging it. Had a replacement cache with me but it wouldn't fit properly so I've got to come back with another one. Oh well.
Will fish this one back out. Gotta rethink the container as water seems to be a problem.
coordinats were spot on. drained water, log too wet to sign. needs maintenance. thought putting the container in upside down might relieve water intake. bad idea. next one bring a or two long thin objects to get it out.
The coordinates were luckily not hard to find neither was the cache, however there was about 1 inch of water in the black container and in the box inside the cointainer as well, entire content was thoroughly wet...definitively needs maintenance and a drainhole! thanks for it !
As a fan of this kind of "magic", I was able to get the coordinates pretty easy. We managed to find the cache easily and made the grab without much trouble. Although the cache seemed to be sealed well, the log book was wet. TN,LN,SL. Thanks for the fun!
Found it but wasn't able to sign the log. There were SOOOO many muggles...

This one has been on my "to do" list, but have not had the time to come out and grab it. Its a little after midnight (Merry Christmas!!) and I'd volunTOLD sherbear to come with me to grab another cache with a code I'd cracked....and since we were doing THAT, we decided to make it a twofer. We had a little trouble with parking AND with muggles out celebrating the holiday. We get near the GZ and sher stops me because there is a muggle *whispering* OVER THERE! I walk towards him anyways and kinda distract him (and catch him off-guard) greeting MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I get withing 10 feet of GZ and sherbear starts walking off...."why does my thing say I'm about 200 and something feet off..." and she starts walking in the direction her arrow is pointing. It takes me a few seconds to realize that I didn't tell her this was one of the puzzles that I'd decoded and take chase because I know she's going to the POSTED coords using her cacheberry phone (Boldie). Whoopsie...skipped an important step when we cache in our group: the debriefing of the description! (oh you know...who hid it, what size it is, when was the last person who found it, any hints, etc) *lucky thing I changed out of my dress and heels* I catch up with her I give her the new coords to plug in and she gets to where I was a few minutes ago. In no time at all she breaks out her flashlight and yells BINGO! I start cracking up because she's done it again! I call sher "clean up committee" because she and samfel ALWAYS find a cache in a spot that I had just left! In this case, I left to chase her down, but same concept....I was in the area and even touched the darn thing, but didn't realize it was it! The other cache we'd found had already made my night, so getting this one was just the cherry on top to a start of a perfect Christmas day!
Thanks for the midnight Christmas cache run! Now we have to go home to open our presents...I hope Santa got me my darn tri-pod I've been crying for!

Merry Christmas! Found this one early Christmas morning. Our GPS was off a bit...but we looked for the obvious and found it in no time. TFTC!

Took a little stroll through Tumon to get this one. Lots of muggles walking by though.
I came here alone during others are sleeping. I get easier at 4th day in guam. TFTC
The cache does not disappear, but neither do the muggles! I have been by this cache so many times and every time there is someone keeping me from getting this. A guy waiting in his car, a groundskeeper cleaning, a tourist smoking next to it, it goes on. Finally, I had a chance and took it. This cache needs to learn a new trick, make all of the water inside disappear! Very waterlogged.
Left a Sweet Home Chicago bug behind while I was there.

Veganmimi and I decided to try to find this one before it vanished again. It seems when I have been in the area that it has vanished from my find list. hmmmmm. But not today. We stopped and headed quickly to where the cache 'should' be... and sure enough there it was. We grabbed it quickly and emptied some water out. The log was a little damp but we had no problem signing it. Hopefully the rest of the water will disappear. TFTC TNLN SL
Good spot for a hide. I think the tourist muggles thought we were a little crazy. TFTH
We didn't know if we would be able to find this cache out in the field, however when Segn looked at his new gps that displayed the description, the cache location jumped out at us. We quickly went to our final destination.

Our last night in Guam (for this visit). We're sad to leave. Solved the puzzle with a wave of the wand and drove to the location, and I mean right to the location. Thanks for an interesting cache to round off the day.
Found today during another fantastic day of caching with Wandahfoh and Blygoat!
Very good use of writing without writing! To find the answer here forget about color, but instead think of the full spectrum blended into one. Don't get it? Then wave your magic wand like the hint says!

Went out on a short Geocaching trip with my Bro, Isla 671 and the family today. Finally back on the grid! But not too sure how long it will last. Anyways, it took us a while to find it. Twice i was so close yet so far away. Finally, i used one of my geocaching techniques, i closed my eyes, took a breather, looked around and BAM!!! There it was! It finally appeared! I was starting to get a tan out there! Great cache! TFTC
