Geostomp 2010

     Been a long time since my last real caching adventure or trip. In fact I've only got two caches from December till March. So this trip was a nice jump back into geocaching.

Started out by getting picked up near my place by Rhondle and Knightorc and then driving to Kamloops. The event started at 9am, so we drove straight there. Made it just in time and also snagged 2 travel bugs on the vehicles.
The building was packed solid when we got there. We were stuck standing near the door, as you can possibly see in the photo below:

After a quick introduction, we headed out caching. Our first stop, was Tim Horton's which also had a cache beside it. After grabbing some food, we headed across the parking lot to the cache. There was already some people looking, but i managed to grab a FTF. Also got a FTF on the next cache after that.
We then headed to south kamloops and ended up caching there for a while.

Grabbed alot from the Sahali Parks and such.




We grabbed lunch at McDonalds and then went back to caching until ending in North Kamloops at 3:30, in order to go to the wrap up part of the event.
Rhondle and Knightorc both got prizes from the draw, but I didn't, though i got 2 FTF's that morning so everything's OK.

After that we spent the evening on the trip home grabbing some more. In all we got 29 Caches (including the Event)
