Just shy of 5 years since I DNF'd this one, but no mistakes today and the confirmation e-mail tells me so.
Arrived on the tube and took the walk up the street, past the markets, where I made a few more purchases (like 5 years ago) and then onto the required area. Sort of worked out the error or my ways last visit, and soon arrived at GZ. Stood and looked for a few minutes wondering why I didn't find it last time, but then just grabbed the required info and photo, and headed back from whence I came, detouring in for a spot of a lunch, which for Sunday, took some time.....
Thanks rodz for the cache....always good to correct a previous DNF. An enjoyable area, even with the crowds. Fav point of course.

#6887 - The day started with a walk from the airbnb to Camden Market, to try to find this tricky (in my opinion ) cache. Third time around here, and after wandering around inside and outside, upstairs and downstairs, I suddenly came upon something that seemed to be a possible answer. E-mail sent, but no reply. A bit more wandering, and something else caught my eye... Bingo! Now only the violet one remains to be found, before I can set off for the final...
TFTC and greetings from Sweden!

In London for a couple of days together with muggle daughter, combining geocaching (me), work (muggle daughter) and sightseeing (both of us). Mostly sunny and dry today, and a nice temperature for city geocaching.

After visiting this area we must say that we prefer other parts of London much more ... but it was quite interesting to see, of course. Unfortunately we missed the canal boat for just a blink of an eye as they started the tour as we arrived.
Thank you and best regards, schnurpenturp

War ich mit der Familie auf diesem schönen Markt diese Gegend gefällt mir sehr gut sowas kennen wir von uns in Bremen nur so aus dem Steintor danke für den Kelch und liebe Grüße aus Bremen Porschers virtuelle blaue Schleife in und meine virtuelle für kurze Zeit
Während unserer Zeit am vergangenen Wochenende in London bewegten wir uns auch auf den Spuren der Rainbow-Serie. Diese konnten wir alle gut lösen und die Antworten sind verschickt.
Wir sagen Danke fürs Zeigen der verschiedenen Orte. Es hat uns viel Freude bereitet, daher hinterlassen wir gerne einen Favoritenpunkt.

Eine tolle Location, an der ich neben einigen Einkäufen, noch diesen virtuellen Cache lösen konnte. Danke fürs Herführen und Erstellen dieser tollen Reihe !
During our trip to London, Camden was one of the places where we stayed longer.
We lost ourselves in their streets and discovered countless corners. Once in the stable, we spent some time looking for the necessary data to solve this virtual one and then we made a well-deserved rest to the stables.
We log after sending the answers to the owner and receive the confirmation via e-mail.
Thanks rodz for the virtual we put on our list of favorites.

Congratulations that is the correct answer. You are now welcome to log the London Rainbow Cache 3 - Yellow.
Happy caching, rodz
Back in London for a flying visit, so I jumped on the Northern Line a couple of stops to this vibrant area. Battling my way through the crowds, I found the answers after time. TBs dipped for mileage. Tftc. brunettebird 5 August 2019 15:05 cache find #1788

During our (Super519 and flora95) vacation we could explore many beautiful corners of London. Since we used the mobile phone for navigation, we also looked again and again, what the cacher heart desires So we also visited your cache. The mail with the answers is sent and accepted.

Wie heißt es so schön: "A cache a day keeps the doctor away". Daher heute auch raus aus dem Haus und ein paar neue Geocaches eingesammelt.
Kleiner Cache-Ausflug und dabei heute auch bei diesem Geocache vorbeigekommen. In Vorbereitung natürlich auch noch das ein oder andere Rätsel lösen können. Nach kurzer Suche die perfekt getarnte Dose gefunden
Vielen Dank an rodz für den nett gemachten Geocache und liebe Grüße

Found this afternoon, during a look-sharp weekend in London. We found over 70 caches in total, including 26 virtuals, a webcam and lots of challenge caches, along with a few others along the way, ending up with 7 icons on the Saturday.
This cache was our furthest north excursion today so we took the tube most of the way from Goodge Street. The walk to find the required information took us even further but we found it in the end. Thanks for another of these Rainbow Caches - only one to go now.

Greetings from St Louis, USA! After 9 or 10 trips to London I'm finally getting this series accomplished! Got this one before work this morning. Now I've logged all the virtuals and it's time to figure out the final. Maybe tonight!

Monday and Tuesday was planed our company meeting to London, so I visited this beautiful city again after 15 years.
I fly to London Sunday afternoon, and used this time for walking through the city.
I started at Kensington, continue around Hyde Park to Buckingham Palace, then to Westminster, Trafalgar square, and tried to continue to Tower. This plan was to challenging and after 20 km I was not able to fulfill my dream . Around my way I tried to found all caches around, however I was not fully successful.
Monday and Tuesday - despite the all days meetings, I found the time for finding some caches also.
When I prepared for this trip, I, of course, checked the caches situation .
It was unbelievable - to see so many unusual caches types .
All together I found during this 3 days 33 caches - 1-multi, 2-webcams, 3-Earth, 10-virtual, 17-tradi.
Thanks to all owners for their caches and for nice experience with geo-London .
This cache as part of "Rainbow" I visited as last of all series, but I have a big problem with it.
I "run" for it in the meeting pause, and forget take with my mobile phone which I use as camera .
On the place I found all answers (paper with questions I didnt forget). "Answer E-mail" was confirmed as correct, but I am not able to add my photo from the street.
I am sorry for it, and I would leave on the owner decision about my log accepting or non-accepting.
In each case I would like to thanks for very very interesting series with multi final .

Another trip to London and another chance to grab a few more of the rainbow series. Unfortunately though this one was missed. Thought I followed instructions...and I did find a place where a plaque would go, but it was missing. Looking at other cachers photo's though, maybe I was just in the wrong place. Not sure...
Thanks anyway rodz....

We spent ages wandering around here, trying to find what we needed to find. The directions didn't take us anywhere promising, and so I looked back at logs and photos and then asked a stall holder where I would find the sculptures. It turns out I needed to be even further from the water and into the next market.
The whole area was heaving, being nearly lunchtime on a sunny Saturday but we eventually found the right spot. I was unsure of the answer, but the email soon confirmed we were right. TFTC

My GPS was 185 meters out with this one!!! Worryingly its a new phone and I was using the andriod app for the very first time. Still I know the area well and found it dispute my phone
The walk through this part of the market in Camden Town was very interesting.

Our flight home was very late in the evening and we had time for some sight seeing and a bit of caching on our last day in London. Among other things we went to Camden Town. And what an interesting spot it is. We were never here before, but will definitely be back next time we are in London.
We had a great time here. Picked up a few few presents and had a bite to eat before heading back to our hotel for our cases.
Thanks very much for bringing us here.

In retrospect a sunny Sunday afternoon probably wasn't the best time to attempt this one, the whole area was heaving! It took a while to figure out the right location, but once there all became clear. An interesting place, which I probably wouldn't have ended up visiting otherwise - TFTC.
dog’s little tracks were filled in within ten minutes of his morning stroll.
The snow is light and fluffy, and puffs away from my boot if I stamp my
foot. I’ll bet the alpine skiing today will be outstanding, especially if it keeps
on snowing. Nordic trekking will be great as well, whether on skis or snowshoes;
this last storm of the year should make outdoor enthusiasts very happy indeed. The
wind is going to pick up speed as the day wears on, so be extremely careful on your
way to and from festive events later tonight. Drive defensively, and if you plan on
celebrating with alcohol, use a designated driver or have your own party at home.
When I let the dog out at midnight, snow was gently falling and
there were three inches of soft fluff decorating the yard. Later the
wind came up into gale force gusts, and now the yard is bald as an
egg, with no trace of last night’s magical carpet. Fresh new snow adds
more bulk to wind-driven sheets of blown powder; when I stepped out-
side earlier I was too occupied with merely breathing in and out to pay much
attention to the view. The wind is straight out of the northwest, frigid and literally
breathtaking. A broad band of lake effect snow is just to the south of us; if it drifts
north only a couple of miles, we will be in the thick of it. I imagine that the snow
is sticking to the forest floor, and when the wind dies down the skiing should
be pretty good in sheltered spots. As it is now, there is too much debris
falling along with the snow to be safe in the woods. I wonder how
many wild critters get bonked on the head by branches and such
as they go about their business on a windy morn such as this?
Little dense snowballs falling from the sky are so small that they are
nearly invisible, but boy, howdy, I could feel their sandblasting sting when
I was outside earlier. Free dermabrasion, courtesy of Mother Nature. They
sit on the bare ground in the yard like a truckload of styrofoam beads has
been scattered, perfectly round and white against the frozen crushed shale." />
[size=2] A Nice Place [/size]
Here we used so much time searching for one of the answer, that we had to pay 80 pounds extra for parking
Nice place, and a lot of different things to buy.

A Big thanks to the cache Owner for his/her effort to contribute to the Caching community by hiding this cache.
Enjoyed a great day trip to London for Mr unowho's Birthday. The main purpose of our trip today was to let Mr unowho find munzees in Regents park, some of which we notice belong to you We also decided to do this series of virtual's along with the 2 webcams, 1 wherigo cache, 1 multi and a few traditional's.
We have never been to Camden before and once we stepped off the tube and turned the corner into the hustle and bustle this was quite an experience. We were amazed at all the buildings with giant objects attached to them and all the tattoo and piecing shops. It was a very slow walk to the final location as there were so many people here today, after following the instructions we soon had the answers. email has been sent and confirmed our answers are correct .
After a fun packed day we found 5 out of 7 of the rainbow series, but we plan a return trip soon as Mr unowho now wants to go to Hyde park...

I used to come down this way a lot but hadn't been here in ages. It's certainly changed a fair bit. I'd also never appreciated the hospital bit. Geocaching is certainly proving educational. Answer emailed and confirmed. TFTC!
First of the day. I had forgotten my GPS so had to make do with the phone. Not a great signal but managed to navigate past the stalls to the spot and find the info. Thanks!

One of the questions was easy, the other not. I had already given up when my better half spotted the answer. TFTC!
With my 8000th cache approaching I had decided to visit the Capital today to claim a web cam cache for the milestone and collect a few more special rare (and old) caches in to the bargain. The London Rainbow series was a high priority on my list and this was the second of the 7 colours for me today. I was particularly struck by the amazing 3D objects attached to the various shops along here - what an amazing way of advertising! Mind you, at this time on a Sunday morning (still well before 9 a.m.) everything was very quiet and none of the shops were open for business. A great time to visit to do a bit of caching . I've collected the info I needed and sent an e-mail to the CO - and had the response too, so I'm very pleased to be able to log this one with a photo of Geo Teddy who acts as my photographic stand in for occasions such as this. TFTVC.
A trip Camden on a comic hunt also brought us to try the chin chin labs nitrogen ice cream bar...as we we're close I managed to persuade little J to indulge me in a quick virtual hunt, photo is a little dodgy but at least has my finger and mr Garmin! TFTC
Lovely walk through Camden ! Took some time before finding the answers. It was an expensive cache lol with everything I bought tftc
Another Rainbow Cache off the list. Seems like I cant go a day without logging a Rodz cache... even when I leave my native WTF stomping grounds and head over to Islington to visit my sister I spotted this virtual nearby and had to come claim it. Only a few left in the series to do now. Followed the wrong wall at first but then a foggy memory kicked in and a slightly longer walk and I found the needed info to get an email feedback A nice afternoon to be walking around Camden. Even if I couldnt find a decent pair of sun glasses Cheers from Australia!
Five days in London with Hullu_Jussi, 110 caches . Greetings from Finland
Later in the evening we took a tube to Camden to look around and for few caches. Once again, virtuals are very pleasant in heavily crowded places, TFTC

Thanks for taking us to Camden Town and its rare hospital. Most of the patients seemed not very ill. TFTC.
found this crowded place on a nice winter morning with my friends from australia. Thank you for this cache and greetings from Berlin
Dropped into Cambden Mkt today and visited this cache. Instant verification received. A very interresting place to visit.

We enjoyed walking around in this area. Thanks for the extra help from Master Mariner. Thanks for the cache
Was in the area with a little time to spare, and found this one fairly easily. When I'll get to the others, I don't know...
