Emma's Geocaching Adventure!

One sunny Greenville, North Carolina morning, I wake up at my usual Saturday morning time, twelve noon! I think to myself, //I think I may go geocaching today, I have never Geocached in Greenville and today I am going to look for some nearby caches//. I pull out my phone with the trusty Geocaching app and find that there are some caches near me! I ask my boyfriend Andrew if he would like to go find these caches with me and of course since he is trying to be sweet he says, //I'd love to go!//





Upon arriving to our destination, I quickly realized that the cache is somewhere in Food Lion's parking lot. I searched and searched for this cache, in the gutter, in the tree, on the light pole, in the dirt, etc. But this cache was no where to be found. Andrew wanted to keep looking around but I just stated //we will just have to find the next one!//



Looking at my trusty app on my smart phone, I saw that our next cache is 0.5 miles away. This cache is called //I'll Be Watching// which seemed creepy although it was a Saturday. The GPS lead us to a tree in the parking lot, I could not find this cache anywhere. I looked in the tree, in the bushes, in the gutter, in the dirt, and still could not find it anywhere. The hint on the app stated that it the container the cache was in is camo, so it just made it harder for me to find. After searching for several minutes I felt like it was time for me to move on to the next cache, I was determined not to stop searching until I found a cache or maybe two.



This cache was just about a block up the road from the previous cache, I'll Be Watching, so we did not have far to go. This cache was apart of a series of caches called Christmas Lights. I finally found this one and was super excited about finding it!



We then moved on to try to find one more cache before calling it a day. The next cache is just 0.6 miles away.

My last stop on my geocaching adventure is number fifteen in the Christmas Lights series. Upon arriving to the site of the cache I see that it is outside an eye care place. I automatically went to the same place on the light pole and sure enough the cache was there. I was still excited about finding this one as well as the previous cache.



After going to four different geocaching locations, it was time to make a pit stop at Bojangles on the way home. This was Andrew's reward for going geocaching with me and of course I was hungry since I did not eat before heading out on my adventure.
