Out for a late morning / afternoon dander with mrs_sgtzara and Tigra, our German Shepherd Dog with the aspiration being to find 11 caches. Why 11 you may ask? We'd our eyes on 4 caches in Bog Meadows and 7 caches in Falls Park which we'd yet to find which would result in those areas being awash of smiley faces.
By the time we'd finished though, we'd only found 7 out the 11 we'd targeted having DNF'd 4, 2 in Bog Meadows and 2 in Falls Park. No big dramas though, we enjoyed exploring these parts of Belfast and it just means we'll have an excuse to return sometime.
It was a lovely morning for a walk, reasonably mild for this time of year with the sun making a welcome appearance too .... bliss! A fair number of other folk where out and about taking advantage of the good weather too.
Once we'd finished caching, we stopped past Spoon Street in Ballyhackamore to enjoy a 'fro-yo', a welcome refreshment after a lovely walk.
Anyhow, as for this cache, we made our way out to this one after finding Falls Park http://coord.info/GC32P4N
Turned off the path too soon and spent a few minutes searching the wrong location. Once I'd realised the error of my ways, I returned to the path, carried on a short bit then dropped down again to search elsewhere and that's where I found the cache!
SL & TFTC.

A lot of nettles in this area and very nearly stung a few times. Very well hidden and nice wee cache TFTC
Falls Park was the target for this afternoon's geocaching expedition. Beautiful day for a walk! We managed to find 6 out of 9 targeted caches.
This one had me driven mad!! Not least of all because the boyfriend kept warning me about muggles and it was making me nervous. I was walking away and went back for the 'one more look' and spotted it. Success!! As I put it back, he warned me about muggles again and I dropped it! Damn, I thought, how am I going to retrieve it?? Luckily it fell just within my reach but it was a stretch!! All is ok now, cache is where it should be, thanks for the hide
