Hi all, Female cacher...found out about geocaching after a segment on the travel channel...boyfriend and I became hooked...then I became obssessed....so you can add the following to your totals.... Myself Cousin - Nadiasmirnoff (obssesed with me and my caching partner...yes yes two girls hiking in the woods...) Younger sister (teenager) and working on middle sister...will be caching again with us this weekend... In my caching family them women out number then men 4 to 2 (the two men being my boyfriend and father)...so we are a female dominated caching family...and proud of it!!! Thanks for the fun post...

Laogai, Thanks for the suggestion and the fast response... the hotel he is stays at is the Evergreen Laurel Hotel Paris 8 Place Georges Pompidou Levallois Perret, 92300 France I will look into the cache you suggested...that looks like something he can gett to by taxi.... again, thanks for the response...

Hi all, I am in need of some help. I recently came across a TB called Explorer that wants to go to France...My father who is a cacher himself is heading to Europe on a business trip in two weeks. He will be visiting Paris, Milian, and Lucerne and is willing to make an attempt to get the TB into a cache but we are having trouble finding a cache that is realtively close...parlty due to the fact that neither of us are multi-lingual... While he does not have a lot of time to cache, and does not know the areas to far outside the city (and won't have to much access to transportation to a random forest) he is willing to make an attempt to get this TB to Europe and on with its goals...can anyone help!!!! In Paris he is staying in Point de Levallios...In Italy in Milan not far from the Domo (spelling?? ) and in Lucerne he is staying right on the lake ... Any information at this point would be greatly appreciated... Thanks... Thea101

Hi all, So this will be my first post on the forums after spending time reading them...I have chosen not to post previously because sometimes the boards can get a little heated ....but after reading through the responses to this...I have an overwhelming need to respond...so please bear with my long response... I am realatively new to caching...and have just begun to plan to find some locationless caches......what upsets me about this guy is that he has taken it upon himself to log locations that otherwise could have been logged by a cachers who were there...with the GPS...so in essence they are truly not found... of course it is frustrating to read a locationless ...and know you have been there...but without a gps, before you began caching etc...so you can not count it... I myslef have been to Buckingham Palace and would loved to have it count as a find...but it is my lose of not being prepared (more motivation to return ) All that being said.... (sorry for the ramble)...on to my point... Having looked at this guys pictures...the ones that FSU Noles posted is just the tip of the iceberg....compare the following links and you will see all of these are faked (IMHO)... http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/log/475746_200.jpg http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/log/475702_200.jpg http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/log/475830_200.jpg http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/log/449704_200.jpg (the original in my opinion) http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/log/475526_200.jpg http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/log/475533_200.jpg http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/log/475848_200.jpg http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/log/475720_200.jpg http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/log/475764_200.jpg You will see the pixalation that FSU Noles talks about and the same direction of the sun...and the impossible perception...and I know people will comment with the why do you care...and as stated....it just takes away the fun for someone else...now of course they can find another location...but again as stated...then this place is not truly "found"... My other point/question...I myself had two caches that I thought I logged and didn't...so my dates might be slightly off...and for that I feel bad...but I thought that accurately dating a find is important...if that is the case.... Then how can this guy have 18 locationless finds in one day.... In Alabama, Las Vegas, Maine, North Carolina, Oregon, Tennesse, Iowa, and England...I know people have done some pretty amazing things...but come on... I guess I can believe he might have been able to be in Georgia one day and then Memphis, TN and Alabama the next.... Anyway, all this is just an opinion, hopefully I will not get snapped at for posting it...I just think that for locationless caches...some of his logs ruin it for others to find...since usually only one person can find it... Thanks for listening....
