Rainy day today so it was easy to get the answers without being disturbed. In the area doing the lab caches. Thanks so much!

In the area today while visiting London for week. Spent a bit of time looking and reading and hope I've sorted all the required answers. Have sent them to CO so now logging my find.

A wet afternoon, so only stayed out for a couple in the area before need to retreat back to my nearby motel

Thanks Sveinivar…..another earthcache were I learnt something.

Another interesting stone. Like your work.

Easter 2020 sees South Australia hosting the next Easter big MEGA event, GeoVenture 2020 at Millicent. GC82DAN. Check it out. We would love to see you there.

For a short trip we travelled spontaneous to London. We had a full weekend to explore this great city with parks, buildings and hotspots of tourims, of course. The weather was fine, against all odds it was sunny and warm, only at the last day we felt some raindrops. Best conditions to do some sightseeing combined with geocaching.[^] So we discovered nice and hidden places next to areas with lot of muggles, sorry, tourists, of course. After all we walkes a lot of kilometers and our feet are killing us. We took the public transport as often as possible, but the support of the tube and busses did not help either. At the end it was worth it and we collected a lot of impressions and fun.[^] And this geocache did it's best, too.[^]

A interesting base of a statue and we could learn something about this material.[^]

Thanks for hiding and maintenance.

My son and I visited London for a couple of days and we visited a lot of caches and historical and interesting places on our 75km walk during 4 days!


On this place it was a lot of statues and earthcaches!
We tried to study as many as possible to collect the answers, but as always with earthcaches it can be rather tricky.

I will send our answer to CO right away!

Great time to be out here at GZ today with the London bike race and the great ambiance of people and music performances.
Thanks for the instruction and showing the location, answers send to CO.
TFTC!

Answers sent to CO. An interesting earthcache in this very busy place. TFTC

Found this when it was very busy and lots of police were about due to the demonstration in the bridge. It's great that Lloyd George has his Welsh slate. It's a lovely colour. Thanks

On our first but short visit in London we spent some time studying the statues and looking at people enjoying the warm sunny afternoon. The most difficult was to find a place to sit down. So many people around. Of course, also we oldies could sit on lawn, but how to get up, that might be the problem .

Again we learned something new. And although the task was quite easy, studying and writing in a foreing language is always a bit challenging.

Message sent to the CO.

Found on a massive day out in London, I found a good train deal down to Euston so decided to have a day out caching in the big smoke. Throughout the day I managed to walk over 30km and collect a lot of caches. I mostly targeted the west side of central London leaving the East side for another trip. I found a lot of brilliant caches including some excellent puzzles, thankyou to all the cache owners that have made London such a caching hotspot.

Final one of the parliament square trio and a quick collection of the information, I have done quite a few slate earthcaches before. TFTC

Was here together with my husband today. He has sent our answers to the CO as email, and has published a photo of us two at GZ along his online log.

Today my wife and I went out for a long walk around London, and eventually we passed by this square and its abundance of earthcaches... we started with this one, and it was a nice experience seeing both the statue as well as the fundament below.
We took notes and pictures, and our answers have been submitted to the CO.
Thank you for the short lesson and thank you for the earthcache.

My final earthcache of the day - number twenty in total.
We spent something like five hours wandering and making notes of the answers.
We've seen some nice parts of London.
We came here from Westminster Cathedral and took a rest whilst we looked at the slate.
Favourite point awarded here - answers sent and photo attached...many thanks...onwards!

Last day on my adventure in UK. Going here for work for a symposium in organic chemistry in Cambridge, it would have been a shame to not collecting some nice caches in a wonderful city! Dozens of multiple type of caches (trad, mysteries, virtual, multi, earth) will be found along some long walks through the magnificent college and under a nice weather (weird no? ).
End of the week is in one of the best cities, London!
1 day in this beautiful capital (and also quite big! I did 10 hours walking in it and it was still just half of it -_-)
Numerous virtuals, mysteries and multis which are crazy! Also some nice works along the stories of Albion

* A beautiful park with nice statues! Each of them having different style and the perfect playground for nice earthcaches

We spotted this cache whilst on a tour of Westminster with a guide. I stopped listening to him and came over to examine the slate! Studied the rock and answered the questions as best I could. Photo posted too as proof of my visit. TFTC
