Found while making my way from Regents Park to Camden, my first physical cache find in London. Fortunately the car park was relatively empty when I swung past so no interruptions during the very short search. TFTC Loony Londo!

We were in London and we have had a good time. The first when I visited London and Camden we didn't geocache. I liked this part of town and so we went to Camden again. It was really fun. Unfortunaly we didn't have lots of time. So we cached only two caches and this was one of them. It was a surprise for us that behind the buildings a parkingplace was. Thanks for the cache and I hope you understand my litle English story.

Being a human, finding and retrieving this cache was straight forward, if I was a Darlek, then the story would had been totally different.
Found with Sawa0001 before joining the masses at Camden Lock Market!

Was up in Camden to see St Paul and the Broken Bones at the Electric Ballroom, who did an excellent show, and was determined to find this cache. It was located in the first place I tried but I missed it and spent another five minutes walking up and down without success before returning back to where I'd started and this time felt the cache move so got there in the end.

Early in June, I spotted that I could do a return Ryanair flight to Gatwick and an overnight stay in Brentford for less than €100. And thus a trip to London was born! I've been to the city quite a few times... I have relatives living there, I've been to gigs there, I've done various specific things there... but never really been on a sightseeing trip. It was time to alleviate that and see some relations I hadn't seen for a while.

Day 1 started at 5am; no big deal anymore with my recent rampages, yet once I'd arrived at Gatwick everything started to go wrong. The queue for train tickets was ridiculous and they'd run out of Visitor Oyster Cards, but I did save a lot of money on a combined ticket. Glad for once I was too apathetic to try and buy stuff online. Once in London, the caching went wrong too. I had many, many DNFs... not just on traditionals but on stuff that shouldn't be DNFed... like Virtuals and Earthcaches. And the weather was cat. However, I made the most of it, hitting Jasmer targets and getting a tour of mainline rail stations and the Underground; which interested me in itself. Blackfriars was the start, for a virtual nearby, followed by a few earthcaches near St Pauls and a trip to Paddington for another virtual. I did a few around Marlyebone and Mayfair around lunchtime before going to St James Park and Buckingham Palace for a look-see. There was a cluster of virtuals, multis and traditionals nearby so I tackled these.. DNFing some but still seeing the history attached to them. I took a wander around to Westminster then, seeing tourist spots but also virtual and earthcaches, before heading up to Piccadilly for dinner (Londons best steak in a casino, thank you Tripadvisor). I tried to do another in the area but muggles, rain and exhaustion took over and I got the train to Brentford via Waterloo.... picking off a Sidetracked near the hotel.

Day 2 wasn't really a caching day but I did go via the Thames Path... trying to pick off two caches in the area... one was a genuine DNF and the other I lacked the climbing skills for. However, the main target of the day was London Zoo and although there were no caches there, 401 photos were taken over seven hours. On the way back to Camden station I picked off one cache in a carpark to put the day on the map. Then it was back to Kings Cross and off to Gatwick for my late night flight home. Got in at about midnight and up again at 630am for work!

So two crazy days and although this log shows it up at a pack of DNFs, I did still get 15 finds and got to visit just about all of Londons mainline train stations and plenty of Underground ones; which interested me more than perhaps I should admit. I got some Jasmers, some rare cache types, but most importantly had good fun. Geocaching, this time, was trumped by London Zoo and relatives, but being the only person in the entire tropical bird aviary and making friends with rare birds who came out with the crowds gone home will be the top memory. And all the squirrel monkeys escaped.

Thanks to all the cache owners for the caches!

Really messy location I'm afraid; there has been rampant dumping at GZ and I wouldn't come anywhere near here at night. Sorry, not the best I've found but it ticked off a day so I'm grateful for that. Final cache of the holiday!!

During the holidays in London with the family, we took the opportunity to put a few smiles on the map. A very interesting building and a good cache, not so easy to find.
Thank's to the owner for showing us this place.
