24-Sep-18
I was in Krakow this weekend to compete in a sport stacking competition together with one other dane. There was also a cubing competition at the same time and place, so just for the fun of it we participated in that too.
To get cheap flight tickets we flew to Krakow friday morning and home to Denmark monday evening.
During the weekend I found some geocaches and Rune played some Pokemon Go.
This was one of the finds this weekend.

Found at: 16.45
Search time: A few minutes
Looked at the hint before or during the search: Yes
Cache status: Ok
Logbook status: Almost full
Find number: 6524
About today:
When I landed in the airport in the night before this day I was South of equator for the first time in my life, and before leaving the airport I signed up for the club described below
I had today in Bali and used that to find some caches.
Generally about my vacation:
In the last 2 years I've been on a lot of geocaching vacations alone, and I've been geocaching in a lot of countries.
This summer I decided to do it a bit different. I decided to book a group vacation with adventuredk, who makes group vacations for young danes. We were 13 danes and 2 norwegians travelling for 4 weeks in Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos and Thailand.
It wasn't an easy decision to go on this vacation, because not being a geocaching vacation I had to stop my streak, which ended at 1112 days. But I'm very happy I made the decision. I had a wonderful time with the group in those countries, and it was definately the right choise.
I like collecting countries, and I still had some vacation time after the time with the group, so I had decided to only fly with the group from Denmark to Thailand and not from Thailand to Denmark, and then get some more countries on my own afterwards.
In Denmark we have a club for people, who travels a lot (which has nothing to do with geocaching). To count a country or territory as visited you have to be in the country/territory for 24 hours in a row, so I always try to fulfill this when going to a new country.
There are 4 requirements to become a member of the club. You have to:
1. Have been in at least as many countries as you're years old and at least 30 countries (I'm less than 30 years old, so for me the requirement is 30 countries, which I already had before this vacation).
2. Have been in at least 2 new countries during the last 2 years (I got a LOT here, so this requirement is no problem for me).
3. Have been in at least 4 continents (I had already been in Europe, Africa and North America, so Asia became my 4th).
4. Been on both sides of equator (I was missing this one).
My plan for which countries to visit after the group vacation was mainly based on the 4th requirement about crossing equator. Because of this I made the goal of visiting Indonesia and Timor-Leste. The rest of the countries visited was based on where it was possible to make stopovers from Bangkok (Thailand) to Dili (Timor-Leste) and from Dili to Copenhagen (Denmark). Therefore my plan became Malaysia, Indonesia, Timor-Leste, Singapore, India and Ukraine.
The group vacation was not a geocaching vacation, but I did what I could to find the geocaches we went by, and we had some days with nothing planned that I used on geocaching. So even though it wasn't a geocaching vacation I found a good amount of geocaches anyway
A lot of my time alone afterwards was used on geocaching. I always try to focus on the unlogged challenge caches closest to my home, and for this vacation it meant that I was mainly going for earth caches most of the time.
Thanks a lot to OOH YEH for this cache

When going to Belgium this cache is a must.
I'm in Belgium to visit the mega event in Brugge on saturday. But I started going in the opposite direction from the airport to get this cache and to get Luxembourg on the geocaching map too.
Met 2 geocachers from Germany at the cache.

Found at: 16.14
Search time: Less than a minute
Looked at the hint before or during the search: No
Cache status: Ok
Logbook status: Ok
Streak day number: 653
Find number: 3519 (I started the trip on 3513)
I'm on a 6 days trip to Belgium and Luxembourg because of the mega event in Brugge saturday.
I flew to Charleroi wednesday morning, and from there my plan is/was:
Train to GC40
Train to Luxembourg
Event in Luxembourg wednesday evening
2 nights in Luxembourg
Friday train to Brugge and attend the two evening events
2 nights in Brugge
Saturday mega event in Brugge
Sunday morning CITO event and go to Bruxelles (either by train or get a lift from someone at the CITO event)
1 night in Bruxelles
Monday go to Charleroi airport (either by train or bus) and fly home to Denmark
And of course find a lot of caches wherever I'm going.
The only two non-event caches I'm specifically planning to find are GC40 and the cache in Brugge with over 1000 favorite points.
Belgium and Luxembourg are both new countries for me and (will be / are) my geocaching countries number 33 and 34. All the countries I've found caches in are in Europe and far most of them has been found during the last year.
I have a goal of finding at least one cache in each country in Europe, so this trip will bring me 2 steps closer to that goal. According to geocaching.com there is 51 countries in Europe, so after this trip I'll be missing 17.
I'm also hoping it may be possible to get at least one FTF in Belgium and/or Luxembourg, but it's not something I'm counting on.
The cache may help me with the following challenge caches I'm working on right now:
The cache will help me with GC423AC Challenge - 10.000 fund i Europa (3519 out of 10.000)
Thanks a lot to Pierre Cao, Speerpunt, adopted by Grokky for this cache

Fundet klokken: 16.42
Søgetid: Under et minut
Kiggede på hintet under søgningen: Ja
Cachens status: Ok
Logbogens status: Ok
Fund nummer: 3154
Streakdag nummer: 563
Grunden til, at jeg fandt netop denne cache i dag: I dag er planen, at få den sidste dag i Oz9els snes challenge cache. Jeg mangler kun dag 16. Jeg har valgt at tage den på Amager, så jeg samtidig kan arbejde på Amagers Kong Cache, og jeg valgte at gøre det i Dragør, da det er så langt væk fra mit hjem som man kan komme på Amager.
Cachen hjælper mig med følgende challenge cacher:
GC423AC Challenge - 10.000 fund i Europa (3154 ud af 10000)
Hvis det er en mystery cache hjælper den med GC5879R Club 1000 - Challenge cache
Hvis cachen er mikro, lille, regulær eller not chosen hjælper den med GC5MN73 Challenge - Størrelsen betyder alt!
Tak for cachen
