This
years GeocachingIreland's "New Years Resolution Event" will
involve a short walk around The Donabate Peninsula in North
County Dublin.
Everyone is
welcome, especially 'new' cachers who would like to meet some of
the 'old legends' of Irish Geocaching.
The idea so
far is:
We'll meet
at the Martello Tower (near the above Cordinates) around 12 o'clock
on Saturday 6 January.
(You'll
recognise each other by the GPSrs dangling from your necks and the
odd behaviour when muggles pass by)
We walk the
route of
The Lambay View cache along the cliff path (This should take 1h
max.)
We walk
back to The
Waterside Hotel for some milk and cookies
More
