Throughout the month of July, my husband and I took part in the Hidden Creatures challenge set by Geocaching. The idea was to find 100 caches within a set time. The weather was glorious, perfect for long walks in the countryside, discovering old byways and amazing vistas.
We found this field of beautiful poppies,
We found this field of beautiful poppies,
stretching as far as the eye could see!
Common poppies were to be seen, growing amongst the crops too.
Much of this area is chalk downland, which supports a beautiful array of wild flowers.
The corn fields were a gorgeous, golden colour.
We passed by streams
and old mills.
We found some interesting caches!
The byways were leafy and green, providing shade from the sun
and the evenings were delightfully warm.
An ingenious cache!
We love that caching takes us to interesting places, such as the Peace Garden at Greenham Common.
My husband was also away for a short time on a business trip in UAE and picked up a few points there too. As a result we found 100 caches in time and earnt our World Turtle souvenir.
Being a fan of Terry Pratchett I wanted to complete this challenge!
