That was fun......

Headed out and up and enjoyed the GZ area. Grabbed the required photo's as well as a few more and then took the return trip to terra firma. E-mail sent and all clear received.

A fun cache with great views....even got the certificate to prove it. Fav point for sure.

Thanks rodz.

Early after opening hour I was able to quickly reach the top and enjoy the beautiful view. I was turning in rounds in order to find the answers, but after a while I spotted them.
Thanks for a very nice cache!

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." />

A really nice view from here

[blue] Greetings from Norway! [/blue]
A Big thanks to the cache Owner for his/her effort to contribute to the Caching community by hiding this cache.

Definitely agree that it required effort to find - and not even good views to reward us! Still we made it with a certain dense of achievement. This was the 3rd of our CCC caches today and sadly we don't have time to finish as we have to meet the other half of EHD in Hendon in 20 minutes - hope they are running late too!

Took some time to find the clue but we enjoyed our little detour in London..... Just got to work out how to add a photo now.....

A "catastrophe" to climb up here and to pay for it - but the view was awesome.
TFTC!

Today we visited in London this cache.

Swirly cache!!!!
Great hide thanks for the cache!

Had no idea you could climb this some work out it was too shame it was so wet but still great views from the top. Many thanks

Woohoo. Managed to do this virtual while visiting London so that marks the August challenge complete! Nice calf work out to get to the top with some great views and found the data. All good fun.

Now for a quick stroll around some caching before the pub.

Found this one on a quiet evening stroll during some quiet hours in the evening on a businesstrip. Thanks for hiding. International geocaching rules !!!

WOW ... I've been wanting to take on this cache for so long and today we headed into London with the intention of visiting the Monument.

With all of the Monkeys with us, Mrs_Fuller and I needed to take half the team at a time to ensure we could all meet the challenge It certainty was a tougher than I expected, but Monkey2_Fuller, Monkey3_Fuller, Monkey5_Fuller and I (Mr_Fuller) made it. We seemed to have missed the required information on the first pass but found it after a couple of attempts. Mrs_Fuller, Monkey1_Fuller and Monkey4_Fuller also made it successfully after us. The children were all thrilled to receive a certificate to acknowledge their stair marathon

Email sent, confirmation received, photos attached. Have a favourite from us TFTC.

I have been wanting to go up the monument for a while and now I finally have.


TFTC

Have tried several times to get to the top but each time my vertigo has kicked in halfway so am hoping that on this occasion the CO will accept a picture on the stairs!

Email sent and received.

Thanks for this cache and brining me here. I love the certificate we got at the bottom after completing the walk. Attached is a photo of me and my partner taken with my iPhone 5 which I currently use for my geocaching.

It's a Long way to the top if you wanna Rock'n Roll, is an old song of a famous Australian rock band, but it's also a long way to the top to log this cache.
TFTC

It's a really long way to the top but there is a wonderful view. After visiting we got the certification for all the steps [^].
TFTC and greetings from Austria

Many Greting from Germany

Felfedeztük a várost jópár láda segítségével.
Nézelődni nem nagyon volt időnk, de legközelebb bepótoljuk.
Köszönjük!

Some caches helped to us to discovered London.
We haven't got enough time to sightseeing. Maybe next time.

Greetings! catching up on logs. Found with Setsujoku

Thanks to the owner for the cache, and the opportunity to see more of another country.

Ok, there are 311 steps! And I thought I would never reach the end! But were subjected to some great views!

Got the certificate for my troubles and a smiley as well!

Will add as a favorite.

Found while on a visit to UK.

Thanks for the cache i found it on the same day as climbing st pauls cathedral so mum and i were quite tired by the time this was taken. I use my iphone as a gps and a camera so i cant take a pic of itself ... sorry

And Done! Finally I have managed to (nearly) complete a Rodz Series I now have all the info needed to grab the final... but wont be able to do it until May I think I am going to have to go on a Rodz-a-thon and try to finish Sherlock, the Rainbow, WTF and if my brain works, The last 4 in the Alphabet.

This was probably my favourite of the CCC series. Got in just before close at 5pm and shot up and up and up and up until I reached the top and the answer. A few quick snaps then back down to continue fixing Munzopoly Munzees

Cheers Mate!

Found with andrewrobbo on a touristy walk around London today. Thanks for the cache and the view.

On holiday from Perth, Western Australia. This was one of the hardest caches I've done for a while, and I dare say I was a little disappointed as the view from Saint Paul's overshadows the one here. Nevertheless, I'm a fan of tower views and this was still fun! TFTC!

Came up to this from the Canary/Swan cache and came smack bang across the correct plaque without having needed to search at all - if only they all came this easily! Thanks found the tour and history lesson - very interesting.

Fantasic View. Thanks for the Cache

In London on business, but with the GPS back in Australia had to rely on clues via SMS from home!! Hope I've got this one right ... it's a long way back to doublecheck. Thanks for giving me a different perspective of this part of town.
