How Long Does Bladder Cancer Grow

Last Terra caches this year

Michako have today and I made the last Terra caches this year, namely "rampart Oldenburg" (TCA2). Unfortunately, I had forgotten my camera and so are the photos of Michako, which he has kindly provided. The round (approximately 4.3 km) was in Ense, when I get there by public transport rather bad :-)

The round was quite interesting - they led in part cross-country and forest trails uA little use to a very beautiful chapel, all stations were easy to find and we both had found the cache first :-)

addition, we also had luck with the weather - it remained dry until we were on the way home, only then it rained.

Then we have the very beautiful Geocache-riding "( GC205RF ) sought and found - we both had no luck alone, but together we were successful and were able to get rid of traveling guests (one and a Geocoin Travelbug) finally :-)

Terra Cache (Multi) was had, moreover, the first cache, the waypoints I created with QLandkarteGT TRANSFERS and on the Oregon, that later in a separate post about Linux, QLandkarteGT and Oregon.

pleasant side effect: I have now in the European Terracaching price on the 9th Course done :-)

Where do not hide a cache

Schwerin On my tour (see the previous Entry) I have also tried to raise the geocache "The Chest" ( GC1Z0FQ ) - I have found the can in principle, but I have recovered not aware - it was now in about 50 cm deep water ( probably melt water) and therefore was not disguised and practically (see) photo. According to the log, the problem seems resolved now.

Can You Take An Epilator On A Plane?

stockpile should Schwerin Castrop-Rauxel

Today (2nd Day) was the weather - quite contrary to the predictions - nice and I decided the Terra Caches "cultural landscape in Schwerin (Castrop-Rauxel)" (TCDXR) and "Silvio 4x4 (Moving Terra Cache ) "(TC9BA) to finally make. The latter Cache a movable cache, ie it should from the Finder to another place to hide (the new coordinates of the location to be adjusted accordingly).

The weather was good in principle (the sun was shining ), however, were the paths to some very muddy, wet or there was even some snow or ice, which has become a very slippery affair.

The area was nice and varied with different views and interesting buildings (see photos). Incidentally I have also made one more geocache ("The Hills", GC1Z0FG ) with me here a failure Cleverly happened is that I'm crossing a stream in the mud slipped and fallen backwards into the creek - the pants and jacket looked after well:-O Here, the Oregon b roven - it's waterproof :-)

another geocache I have indeed seen, but not logged, to see the next entry.

total - according to Track Record - I've run 10.3 km, not bad :-)

Weeing Alot, Pain In Tummy

Zollern

Today I finally made the Terra Cache Zollern II / IV "(TC9CI) - was standing a long time on my to-do list. The cache was a virtual cache, but it was the end, a to look kind of container :-)

The site is located at the site of a former colliery (mine said ") and shows the various stages of mine life - and it is a support tower on the site, you can climb. From the tower I had a really nice view in freezing cold but clear weather - see photos :-)

about the Zollern find uA here r .

Unfortunately, I had no luck adjacent to the geocache (I had a station at the coordinates read well not quite correct) and I was a travel bug, I had it, not pass - but postponed is not abandoned :-)

general, a really beautiful and interesting location with good but cold weather :-)

This was also one of the few caches that I have (only) made with my em iQue 3600 - the iQue is basically very good for caching suitable (The program cache Mate is really excellent and I hardly know anything better), but in principle - in addition to the (compared to modern GPS receivers) rather poor reception - two disadvantages:
  • Battery life is longer routes not suited too well , especially since the battery is not easily (eg with normal AA battery used) is replaceable. Compounding the problem of cold - then drops the battery life dramatically from.
  • The iQue is not waterproof, which in precipitation (rain, snow), a massive disadvantage.
So he goes - geocachingtechnisch - in honor of retired and has now been replaced by an Oregon 400t

:-) I use the iQue still addition caching - to make notes on multi caches, for example, there are not the problems really relevant, and as a navigation system of the iQue is good Soch always very good :-)

Where To Buy Matcha Winnipeg

London Tour, Part 3 (Saturday / Sunday, 5.9.2009/6.9.2009)

By bus we drove from Abbey Road in central London (Piccadilly Circus, Leicester Square, etc.). There we have a little (I even knew which all already) made conventional sightseeing - it has not changed great number of new musicals, otherwise the same as always bustling Piccadilly Circus on :-) We have also seen a special Rolls-Royce, see photo.

was some time later, then the next Terra Cache: "Fig Tree Court" (TC4M2). The terrain was very interesting: a quasi-closed large block called Temple - was once the region, the headquarters of the Knights Templar, an ancient church (it he photo) still bears witness of the past. The very large area in the middle of Westminster is entered through an entrance, but it is certainly permitted to visit it.

Then we had a small break on a boat on the banks of the Thames - the prices were moderate due to the low pound price, even for London very cheap :-)

We then wanted to go to Greenwich, unfortunately, had the Dockland Light Railway Construction, so we aim then painted. We took the ship a few stations on the Thames down to the last cache Terra: "Westminster Walk" (TC4SG). The area was full of tourists who all wanted the Clock Tower (where you will find Big Ben) wanted to take pictures or go to the London Eye (the ferris wheel). Similarly, we have seen on the cache line street theater :-)

For Terra the last cache we were exhausted and went to Soho to still buy and eat at a Malay evening. The food was good and interesting, but not 100% my taste, but let's try a new kitchen :-)

took the last secure connection, we then returned to the ship, checked in and then reached Sunday morning, Hoek van Holland. The crossing was very calm this time. Well after a great British breakfast, we went back to Dortmund.

Conclusion: Very nice, but demanding Terracaching tour. The Terra caches were in places that I did not even show and - as usual - interesting locations. All in all it was a thoroughly successful short trip, the weather has also played well.

Gay Crusining In Calcutta

London Tour, Part 2 (Saturday, 5.9.2009)

went after very little sleep and an excellent and comprehensive British breakfast on board, then by train to London. The last time I was about 9 years ago in London, but I have found her way directly back without any problems :-)

All London caches were purely virtual cache (which is understandable, a real box would probably stolen very quickly or Police are removed).

went to only have to "X" (TCCTA). The task: To find the X and take a picture of himself and the GPS receiver (see picture). No Problem. Then it went to ' Along the Trail of Peace "(TC4SF) - a small farm in the southern city of London, the peace is given to: uA is there a statue of Mahatma Gandhi (see photo), trees are Peace activists dedicated (see photo) and the park is generally very nice. Again, there was no problem to log the cache.

Then we went to Abbey Road to the two webcam cache (a cache Terra, a geocache) to do - the webcam pointing directly at the pedestrian crossing, which is visible on the Beatles album "Abbey Road". In principle, no problem, unfortunately, I'm exactly 5 minutes (!) To later come back home from the frog Webcam image taken was 5 minutes (!) Previously deleted automatically. : - /

Part 3 in the next posting :-)

Brown Smelly Discharge And Brown Urine

London Tour, Part 1 (Friday, 09/04/2009)

From 09/04/2009 to 09/06/2009 I have with a friend of mine a trip (my mother had won a competition, it) made in London. The travel information:
  • evening from Hoek van Holland to Harwich on a ferry with cabin and British breakfast in the morning (arrival around 6:30).
  • the train to London (arrival 8:30)
  • back evening (about 20:20) with the train to Harwich
  • English Breakfast in the morning and then from Hoek van Holland on Sunday morning had
All I combined with a terra caching tour :-)

After we got our rental car we went to the first cache: "Waypoint West" (TC9ZI), a nic particularly interesting ht Terra Cache: it was to establish in a GPS-business, to bring to the web camera to save the file and to log the cache with the image. Was not a major problem (see photo). Unfortunately, this was the only cache on the day in which we were successful :-(

Next it went to Delft to "Toorenhoog Delft" (TCWZ). Here was the task of the church tower in the fact very nice small town to climb up there and then to take a picture. The church, we have quickly found, unfortunately I was not allowed up the tower because of the strong wind. I have an alternative, a photo made before the church and wrote to the owner of the cache and reports on the problems and asked if would be OK, but unfortunately I have still no answer :-(

get Regardless, Delft was so very nice :-)

Then it went to "Doelpaad (TC4GB). Here we were not able to find, although there was a real box hidden. The path to the cache led past a Dutch farm, the path was partially used for the cattle drive, which led to a funny story: a farmer's herd led by the pasture to the said court (see photo). One of the cows came up to me and sniffed curiously at my arm :-) Then we gave a little talk with the farmer and told him what we do here (geocaching). He was interested, and there had heard of :-)

The last cache was "Vuurtoren Maasvlakte. (Second Edition) "(TC4KT), a lighthouse next to the sea. There were two tasks here:
  • a quick photo of themselves in front of the lighthouse. No problem (see photo).
  • related to the cache itself.
Also this cache, we could not find, unfortunately. I suspect that the cache was stolen, because around the lighthouse took place works, lying around everywhere pipes . Again, I have written to the owner of the cache and described him our problems and asked if the photo is sufficient per se. Sorry, there was also no answer yet :-(

then finally to the ship :-) We arrived on time, checked in and went through a long, long gangway to the ship. There was a minor problem: both our key card and the card did not work a flight attendant. Then we got a new car, which had a very positive side effect: the other cabin was a 4-person cabin and thus significantly larger than the original :-)

The wind, which has resulted in the promise of a problem has not really abated, on the contrary, on the sun deck of the ship, the wind was so strong, that I almost flew the spectacles from the nose! The captain also told something about a stormy sea, but we've finally stabilizers.

That was an understatement not really - the swell was noticed much, but really different than I thought: it felt in bed as if I was in an old train on rough rail line traveling from and slowed the ship to really (probably as it in a Shaft is driven). I was seasick, despite a headache but no, I have imagined far worse.

In the next post then more :-)

Synchronize! Pro X, Blog

Terra Caching in Münsterland

Finally another blog entry :-) After a series of sometimes more, sometimes less successful Terra had caches of which I made no pictures, here again a couple of photos of a tour in Münsterland.

First, I have "surge Westerwinkel (TC9OM) controlled - he was in many respects quite unusual and beautiful multi-cache. The cache led by a kind of enchanted forest to partially very adventurous ways (the photo of one of the ways is the only bad again - this way was one of the better, almost a highway compared to other paths). Sometimes I had the feeling that is passed on the site for ages no longer a man - stood at a position about 100 yards away a deer on the road and looked at me astonished. In other places I would have quite a desired machete, the ferns, nettles and other undergrowth I went partly to the chest!

The road had ere an interesting routing: a part of the path led over a golf course at the castle (see photo), the circuit boards was with nature imaged (see photo), and the castle itself was also quite interesting. stung

From nettles and thorns, bitten by a brake, I finally found the final without any problems :-)

Then it went to Terra Cache Westruper Heather "(TCDPQ) in brackets. I do not know when I was the last time in the Heath - I can hardly remember it. Also, this round was nice and interesting (I think I've seen the funnel of an ant lion), at one stage had been set up hives in which there was also bustling with activity (see photo). The box itself, I'm right sch discovered nell as The camouflage was hardly present (I have re-established).

Conclusion: Two very nice caches, some very wild, romantic and tough (in my calves today I have huge muscles).

Zipper On The Wrong Side

night on Channel ...

Today my next cache hiders Terra went online, "Summer Cache (TCDIL). a multi-cache: it is through his Fredenbaumpark in Dortmund for the channel in which the final is hidden :-)

In principle, the cache already last Saturday was done, but there was a problem with the Hide: Nearby, a group young people built a bonfire, and even the second attempt (as it has even been raining) they were still there. That was me then too risky to sink the vessel in the channel, especially as it is currently rather strange if you swim the channel.

So I went to the Terracaching meeting in Bochum to the canal and was about to hide it so undisturbed at 22:30. Originally I wanted the tank is not secured to the site, but on the opposite page, but I've got right discovered a problem: in the dark, the opposing manager could not find (even in daylight it can be discerned rather difficult), and currently is it less conspicuous when the cache at night / late evening looks.

Two other problems that I did not expect: the conductor to which the container was attached, did not go to the bottom of the channel (initially this should be a small dip cache) and the container is for all the abundance still floats! Well, now it's not a dive more cache, but rather a Bade-/Schwimmcache, but does this have an advantage: he is much easier to bear alone (as ses no longer so important that someone take care of the things when the Finder into the channel goes).

Interestingly, the water was not nearly as cold as feared - but I have a little frozen when I return rausstiegt from the water. And to pass through the night Fredenpaumpark also seems a bit weird :-)

Nadine Jansen Milena Pool

Ruhr Talk lips and my first Terracoin

Today I had left the weather indirectly down: it was announced for the whole day of rain and bad weather, it was the morning sunshine. So I wake up spontaneously after a determined search for Terra cache - for a little back and forth was my choice to "Watch Talk lips" (TCCUH), a cache in Dortmund-Syburg.

The path to the first station from the bus stop "Syburg" was not entirely trivial: I am going wrong, which, however, emerged partly as a stroke of luck: the wrong way led to former time tunnels of a mine under the Hohensyburg over (see photo), and the detour route compensated for almost 2 kilometers :-) Then I crossed a road, gritted my teeth and on the other side of the mountain gorge hochgekraxelt across country. After 1000 meters in altitude chill, out of breath and with aching calves I've finally reached the starting point.

Then the way was very nice - on small forest tract (see photos) to a very spectacular vantage point (see photo, but unfortunately it was a bit foggy, so the photo of the view was not fair), past Nobel Villas ( see photo) - no wonder the beautiful location!

The stations were all very easy to find the cache and then finally I had rather quickly in his hands.
there waiting for me another surprise: in the cache itself pocketed w extra bonus, almost the equivalent of a travel bug ("Travelling Terracoin" TC7XN, see photo of Coins)! Unfortunately, I had forgotten my pen at home and in the cache, nothing was found - fortunately I after a few minutes reminded that my pocket knife includes a kind Notkugelschreiber and so I was able to log in yet (although with very spidery script).

When I was back then, it has been raining properly - the day I used good Terra found two caches and after the rather disappointing Dutch caches again made a really good :-)

A Shake Like The Isalean Shake

Terracaching Tour Netherlands, the last part

After the disappointing "NHW reeks 17: batteria onder Poederoijen" it was already afternoon and we had just time for a cache, we decided as a conclusion of the tour for "Sub Rosa" (TC74L), a relatively well-rated puzzle cache.

The (very original) puzzle I had solved the day before, so just store the coordinates of the final in the iQue, which can be expected route and off we went.

the way to the cache had a tangible Surprise ready for us: I've been wondering why we were guided by a cross there until suddenly the voice was heard from the iQue: "Driving in 350-meter vessel". And indeed, the fastest way to the cache led to the ferry "Brakel - Herwijnen" (see here ). The ferry was ready, we could go directly to the car on board (such as the iQue demanded of us). Somehow it is a very strange feeling to sit in the car while turning the ferry - it's hard to describe it is as if you are in a drive-in theater and the surrounding area would be a movie. After all, the ferry is the correct way, according iQue down:-D

On land us the iQue piloted on a dirt road, this was again the completeness of the map a little problem: we are at the grove then drove around were until we find a suitable parking place.

The cache was in principle in a very beautiful wood (see photo), but unfortunately we have become, despite a long search proved unsuccessful - the cache is probably stolen, which confirms the Owner upon request, unfortunately.

then went home.

Conclusion: Although we have found four caches Terra, we were a little unsatisfied - the quality was sometimes left to be desired, the only highlights of the tour was the sand cache and the ferry. Well, at least there was good points for it, but we prefer rather nice caches as cache statistics. For caches, the caches had been on average, for Terra caches (with the exception of the sand cache) rather the opposite.

Sizzler Hot Wheels Value

Terracaching Tour Netherlands, Part 4

Next we went to ' NHW reeks 17: batteria onder Poederoijen (TC2AE) where a further oddity was waiting for us: the starting point was the starting point of another cache in the series, namely "NHW reeks 19 ". This led to the strange conclusion that I have on my iQue data from 19 had loaded, and Michako Aljha but the expression of had 17 it. Both were multi-caches (the launch station was virtually identical ) also largely identical routing, so we have tried to simply make both parallel.

I do not know what to make of it, hiding almost two multi-caches in the same place with an almost identical line - this looks to me like it, as would whether someone as possible to hide many Terra cache, which really is not the intention - Terra caches are supposed to be special quality caches and no assembly line work.

The first stations were found quite good, the road led to a typical small farm in Holland with pot-bellied pigs, miniature ponies and sheep over (see photo). After that, the quality of the trail went downhill: the direct path led through the private grounds of a nursery, we have relatively quickly aborted this way (which was also good - this way would have led to nothing).

Therefore, it was a road long. Although this was not a main road, it was neat to have traffic and no sidewalk - we had to run partly on the road. Later, the two quasi forked ways parallels the cache: the station of "my" Cache (19) showed on a dyke (which I have found no way to enter it legal) while the other cache (17) showed the direction of progress.

This time we could look at the fort itself from the nearby (see photo), including old toilet (see photo). At the fort were some horses around (see photo). The job there was a bit strange, but we have yet solved properly.

Back it went back on the same road all the way to the last station that was no great difficulty.

The Final itself was hidden pretty original, and here again the same trouble as before was: Cache container glass .

Another cache statistics: although the fort itself was not without interest, was the way there and back my opinions g after a disaster, and deductions and the container made of glass.

Finally we went to the last cache, plus more to come.

Canned Chicken Broth Experation Date

Terracaching Tour Netherlands, part 3

have very sandy cache after we made our way to ' NHW reeks 1, continuous casting (TC7W4). As the name suggests, this is part of a cache Terracaching series.

If I understand the translation correctly, it is this is an old line of defense up to 85km long and up to 3km wide was. At this line, among other things forts were built, the addition could be secured by flooding through a system of irrigation canals and locks. In itself, that is quite interesting places, unfortunately, the two caches, which not really fair.

We arrived at the starting point of this multi-caches, where it showed the first offense: (!) We had a small metal plate that was attached under a pedestrian bridge to find the final coordinates to be calculated. The bridge itself was on top of all on a busy street, so it was impossible to actually drive to the unobserved find - that culminated in us an old Dutchman (who lived there) has given hints, where the part is found, he later came across the street and talked to us. Unfortunately, he seemed neither German nor English speaking.

After we finally found the plate (and have calculated the correct coordinates, I had exchanged the original two numbers), we went to the final. The final was on his way even more of a disappointment: the actual fort was not accessible, so that the road to the ditch (almost a lake), which was enclosed the fort.

the cache itself, we have then found quickly, he was hidden was relatively open and the container on top from glass ! Actually, everyone should be clear Cacher why glass containers are taboo: it's not really funny, when in hiding herumgrabbelt and possibly packaged in tatters.

Very well, again a statistics cache. Was a bit more interesting, the next cache in the series, more on that later.

How To Heartrate Precision Xt

Terracaching Tour Netherlands, Part 2

After - more moderate - Webcam Cache we went to "Water Brabantse water" (TCCLV). The area seems to be a popular picnic spot, where it had a pretty big picnic area and many walkers.

led the way to the cache by a nice area of forest (See photo) to the real surprise: a green oßem sandy area in the forest! The area had a bit of desert, sort of bizarre (see photos).

After crossing the desert, we then get to the location of the cache, here waiting for a real challenge to us, bury the container was in the sand in about half a meter deep (see photo), fortunately had in wise anticipation Aljha and Michakos Sun well as Nordic Walking poles also Handschippchen there - since I do not have such exotic equipment, the two poked in the sand and then dug up the cache.

Although I'm generally not a fan of buried Containers am (strictly speaking, the various rules is contrary to the geocaching), so I make an exception:
  • The cache was and sand buried, so that was not a natural destroyed when digging
  • The place itself was quite obvious, so that Michako and Aljha short Z had to poke ince.
Because of the beautiful, original place I had evaluated the Terra cache so very good - unfortunately it was the last (and only) good Terra cache remain on the tour.

Stay tuned to other caches.
