I like specials like this one a lot, however I'm very surprised you're not axed by the crowd on this forum.
Maybe there is no holy guideline that forbids this, however I find it may inspire kids (or even adults) to go pulling other (real) sockets wherever they think there is a geocache.
For that reason I never use electrical stuff for custom containers.
I've even found one where you had to put your hand blindly into an old electrical distribution cabinet.
Apparently this passes every review without a problem.
But if you dare dig a small hole on the contrary, to put a small pipe into the ground... say no more...
Can you spot it?
Up on the wall to the right, next to the stairs. A fake wall socket that I put up with magnets.
Sort of this kind of wall socket. But i drilled a hole into it to get some space for the cache container.

Als je op geocaching.com een map opent, zoals deze
Dan kan je via de zijbalk links filteren op type, zodat je bijvoorbeeld de mysteries uitschakelt, of de caches die je al gevonden hebt.
Dan heb je in diezelfde zijbalk een link Save as pocket query.
Deze pocket query bevat de caches die op je scherm staan.
Die pocket query kan je rechtstreeks op je gps zetten via usb

2 keer dezelfde found gelogd veronderstel ik, want 2 keer een cache plaatsen op dezelfde plaats, is onmogelijk.
Je kan toch je 2de log verwijderen? Er staat een knopje "delete log" (een rood kruisje)...

Wouldn't it be possible to put my preference of maps in a setting?
-
The standard Mapquest is veeery slow here in Europe, but the openstreet maps work fine.
A pity you have to select it every time.
Wouldn't it be possible to store your preference in a cookie?

Het is wel eens aangenaam om een langere log te lezen, maar het stoort me bv. ook niet wanneer er enkel staat: "Vlot gevonden, mooi, TFTC"
Het valt te zien, als je maanden werk in een cache gestoken hebt... ben ik eigenlijk teleurgesteld met een TFTC hoor.

Je gaat meer respons krijgen als je dezelfde vraag stelt op het .BE forum, maar hier alvast een paar tips van mij:
Net over de grens vind je Moria:The return
Op diezelfde locatie (en tegelijk ook op 2 andere plaatsen, waaronder Dinant), vind je het magistrale TNT: Donjons & mountains.Enige nadeel voor deze is dat je best over wat klimmateriaal beschikt...
Als je in de tv-serie Lost geinteresseerd bent , is Dharma Initiative, Waypoint saturation experiment ook een leuke aanrader.

Hallo
Ik heb een vraag. Hoe kan je als je bijvorbeeld op stap gaat verschillende caches op je route plannen. Nu doe ik het elke keer kijken welke op de route zijn opschrijven en nadien gaan zoeken. Is hier geen eenvoudige manier voor?
Alvast bedankt.
Als je een firefox gebruiker bent, probeer eens greasemonkey en gctour te installeren.

As a matter of fact, there is one near Manneke Pis himself, no kiddin':
GC1FBWM
And one you could call his 'sistercache', near Jeanneke Pis:
GC1FBWP
And a couple of others:
GC1KTFA
GC27GBD
These are the caches I've done in the area...
PS: I think these are all micro caches (like most of the caches in our cities are), so I doubt you can leave the coins or TB's there. To find regular size caches you need to go to the suburbs at least...

We're planning to holiday for 10 days near Turnhout and would welcome some recommendations of caches suitable for our family.
We have basic Dutch, German and French and 8km would probably be the maximum walk our 11 & 12 year olds could manage - their favourite caching would be a circuit of traditionals around a national park or something similar.
Any suggestions?
I'm not from that area, but I'll relay your question on the local forum

Om voor de hand liggende redenen start ik enkel met een draadje hier.
Voor de hand liggende redenen ?
Je begint al direkt met een mystery...

Cool !
I always tend to scale down objects, but apparently bigger is sometimes better !
-
Since the update I can't log any caches anymore?
To start with, the text window where I enter the log itself is no longer visible.
When I try to submit anyway, I get an error window ?
Oh, wait a second, in IE it seems to work, not in Firefox?
I get it : it's a greasemonkey script that no longer works... (GCBBCode)

It was a very nice vacation where we found 16 caches.
My favourites were:
GCN4G4 - Crete - Akrotiri - "3 Monasteries Cache"
GC1NG8J - ZAKROS
GC1T4RV - waterfalls
GC1ZG3E - Fossil Bay
That doesn't mean I didn't like the others I found !
Many thanks to the people who placed them, you all showed me some nice places.
Check out my website if you want to see the complete list of visited caches.

GCN4G4 - Akrotiri - "3 Monasteries Cache"
GC1ZG3E - Fossil Bay
These 2 are already on my todo list.

Thanks for the information, but I will be staying at the other side of the island.
I've got 20-30 caches planned & counting the days 'till I leave !
When I come back I'll post my favourites here as well.

Thanks for the tip, this is a nice feature.
I used to have google maps for my TB's (seperately) where you could see the path it followed.
For some reason this doesn't work anymore...
-
just tried with the 2 TBs listed on your account, they open up fine. you're talking about the "view in google earth" link, right?
does it work with other TBs (i.e. not owned by you) for you?
I use this link on my personal website to create a google map with my TB's travel on it.
(www.geocachervuurvos.tk ->Onze TB's)
That used to work fine up until ? a couple of weeks maybe?

I know of one planned event, but it's not in one of these cities...
-
I won't have much time outside of work to do anything other than drink and hang out
Check out the attributes on the caches : in a city like Brussels there are plenty of 24/7 caches

Hi, we actually have a very active geocaching community. But there are not a lot of geocachers visiting this forum.We have our own local forum instead.
Don't be afraid of geocaching in Belgium, we hardly ever see police officers arresting people for that
Unlike some stories I've read on the US forum
We don't have wildlife you should worry about (except maybe ticks)
Some caches are already translated in English, and if you fancy one that isn't available in English, just let us know.
I see you're visiting Bruges : from the ones I've done there I liked GCXKWY the most.
I don't know how mobile you'll be while visiting Belgium, will you be using public transport, rent a car ?
Nice places near GC40
in Belgium

I loved Moria , but to be honest, didn't feel much for GC40. Although it's a historical cache, but other than that, it was a bit disappointing...
In that area I loved GCG9DA - Woudlopers 5:Kleffergek however. It's a multi, but of the adventurous type. It has a description in English as well.
