    Joyeux Noël mission

    in Trackables

    Posted

    We have 84 missions already. It's a record :o

     

    I think we may reach 100 by Friday, what do you think?

     

    I'm curious to know where all the newcomers learned about this mission. I just announced it on FB today so before that, I have no idea.

     

    Please tell me :lostsignal:

    Cruising out of Miami April 21, 2012

    in General geocaching topics

    Posted

    When I cruised out of Miami, there were five ships all leaving around the same time. It takes a while to get all of those big boys to sea, so the life boat drills are done before you start moving.

     

    Probably the best way to find other cachers is to just wear the Groundspeak shirt or hat, or just walk around with a GPS. We all recognize each other that way. :)

     

    Yeah, we kind of stick out like sore thumbs...Might wear a Geowoodstock shirt or something. I do know I have to find a cache that day, as April 21 is one of the only days left in the year that I haven't found a cache on. Hoping to be able to grab one close to our hotel that morning, and maybe the Miami Freedom Tower en route to the port :)

     

    Thanks everyone, for your suggestions :) Would be really cool to do an event on boardmind you....

    Been caching for 6 years and I think this is my first post here... We are crusing out of Miami on April 21, and are looking to see if anyone out there is going to be on our ship. I have several caches in the ports watchlisted, and it appears an awful lot of folks are cahing, but don't know they are on the ships together.

     

    Hoping to hear from some fellow caching cruisers, maybe even plan a Bon Voyage flash mob or something.

     

    Cheers.

     

    You could create an event and have everyone meet top-side after the life boat drill..

     

     

    :) I was thinking about that, but not sure exactly what coords to use...? I haven't cruised out of Miami before...I know what terminal we are at....but not sure what to do about the coords of the ship.

     

    When do they normally do the life boat drills? Cruise departs at 4pm....

     

    Thanks!!

    (Just found this post when googling "geocaching cruising.")

    We are sailing out of San Juan a week later and have found several cachers on the roll call at Cruise Critic. Go to cruisecritic.com, set up a login, and then find the roll call for your sailing: Search something like "Golden Princess roll call" and then look for your specific date. Once there, there's an option to "Search this thread," and if you put in "geocach" you may find that some have already identified themselves as cachers. If not, just chime in with the question. (In three cruises, this is the first time any other cachers have turned up on the roll call, but this time I found three other couples plus several who are interested in meeting us to learn about it. We'll be meeting onboard the day we board.)

     

    Good luck!

     

    Thanks Pocahontas- I did join cruise critic back in Jamuary :) I have found cachers for my Alaskan cruise in September, but no one yet for the April trip. Will have a ball regardless!! :) Thanks!
