Nice hide. My hands found it before my eyes did. The cache was in good condition. I signed the log and left three coins from Argentina, Canada, and Great Britain.
Thanks for hiding this cache here.

This is a great hide for anyone visiting from out of town (or even locals, for that matter). It's unusual to find a cache larger than a micro within easy walking distance from several hotels and yet in a comfortably remote location away from prying eyes. The hint was also helpful but just cryptic enough to require some thought.
I removed a nice looking pin in order to make room in the cache for the 5 foreign coins I left. Two log sheets in the cache are full.
Thanks for hiding this cache in this location.

I hiked to this one from my hotel in hopes of finding the geocoin, but the coin wasn't there. Hopefully it was taken by UnclePhool or someone who just hasn't had time to log it yet. I signed the log and left coins (not geo) from S. Korea, EU, and the U.S.
Thanks for hiding this cache here.

This was an easy walk from the hotel, if walking the streets of this city can ever be called "easy". I found the cache easily enough by using the hint. Having read an earlier log, and since the owner appears to live in the CA bay area, I replaced the cache scroll. I'll email him to see what he wants done with the original.
I had to wait about 30 minutes to replace the cache because some gardeners came through the area cleaning things up.
Thanks for hiding this cache here.

I had a few "first" experiences today. It was my first time crawling through a North Vietnamese tunnel system (though I'm old enough that I could have done it long ago under decidedly different circumstances); and I think it may have also been my first long ride with a directionally-challenged taxi driver. I lost count of the times he had to stop to ask directions both on the way there and on the return journey. Fortunately I was also in the company of a long-time friend who once called this country home.
We first went to the North (Ben Duoc) tunnel system and did the complete tour there before going to the South (Ben Dinh) system where the cache lies and doing an abbreviated tour there. My Garmin V was showing an accuracy of only 15-17 meters at GZ, so I'm really glad this wasn't a micro or nano cache! I got the required information, emailed the owner, and received a prompt reply that my answers were correct.
Thanks for creating and maintaining this virtual cache. It's an interesting location that afforded good opportunity to see the countryside and a slice of history.

I spent about two hours exploring the museum, mostly in the aeronautical section, before setting off in an earnest search for the object. I would have stayed longer, but I wanted to ensure I would have enough daylight to look for the cache.
I found the cache well hidden and in good condition. I left a few coins from Canada, Argentina, and South Korea and returned the container as I found it.
Thanks for the clever use of a very appropriate object in the museum and a fun hide outside.

Wind, rain, and sand were blowing horizontally at about 60 mph when I went searching for this one today, so privacy wasn't a problem. The cache was in good condition (thanks to the ammo box container), but I didn't spend any time looking through the contents. Family was waiting in the car, and the weather wasn't conducive to a prolonged visit, so I just signed the log and returned the cache as I found it.
Thanks for hiding it here.

Despite the windy, rainy weather, we decided to drive from Hillsboro to visit the column and town of Astoria today. Only after climbing to the top did it occur to me there may be a cache nearby. I checked my iPhone app and wasn't disappointed.
Thanks for the virtual cache here.

I was in the park watching my daughter and son-in-law play kickball, and I decided to go hunt a cache. My iPhone app told me this one was nearby at the opposite end of the park. I used the hint since it was a micro, and I didn't want to spend an undue amount of time searching for it.
I signed the log and replaced it as I found it.
Thanks for hiding this one here.
