\n<\/a>Geocaching events tend to attract a pretty diverse audience, so you never know who you\u2019re going to have an awesome interaction with. You could meet a newbie, a Geocaching HQ employee, or maybe even a famous celebrity! And no, we\u2019re not talking about our very own Signal the frog\u2026<\/p>\n
Geocacher Casseill<\/a> \u201cspied out\u201d a very special someone at a geocaching event in Ireland<\/a>, leaving us feeling very envious. Here is her wonderful story.<\/p>\n \u201cI had only recently started going to events (this was to be my fifth) but as soon as I saw this one, I knew it was one I definitely wanted to do. One – because I grew up around the area. Two – I’m starting to like these events – great people and great craic (as we say here). The weather looked a bit iffy the night before and it was dubious whether the ferryman would be sailing the next day. But, the day dawned bright and sunny and Sarah sent out word that it was “go, go, go”.<\/em><\/p>\n Dalkey Island is a small uninhabited Island – with a couple of ruins and the Martello Tower. It is normally a very quiet and peaceful place with stunning views. Once on the island we set off in groups to find the final of a Multi-Cache and a Traditional. Around this time, we heard a rumor that Pierce Brosnan was on the island and soon after – there he was in the flesh. A couple of the cachers got a photo with him – I hesitantly went over to him but was bid a good day very politely but quite firmly letting me know that he didn’t want to pose again. Which is absolutely fair enough. I’m sure he escaped to the island for a couple of hours looking for peace – not a horde of mad cachers. A while later, geo-chat and picnics finished so we started heading back for the return journey. Who followed us and waited in line behind us for the return\u00a0journey? Only our celebratory of the day! This time he was very chatty and invited my children and self for a photo. We had a chat – he loves the area and I am from the area -so we had plenty to chat about.<\/em><\/p>\n His presence on the island added a lot of buzz to the event – which was already a huge success thanks to Sarah’s planning. Sarah has said she will make this an annual event – so we are all dying to see who she will organize to be on the island next year!!”<\/em><\/p>\n We can\u2019t always promise there will be a celebrity in attendance, but geocaching events<\/a> are a great way to meet new people and learn about the game. From July 3 \u2013 September 2, you can also earn a souvenir<\/a> by attending any Geocaching Event (excluding CITO events).<\/p>\n Mr. Bond, we hope to see you at many more geocaching events to come. We\u2019d also love to send you out on a geocaching mission to recover all the muggled caches out there.<\/p>\n Which celebrity would you love to see at a geocaching event?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Geocaching events tend to attract a pretty diverse audience, so you never know who you\u2019re going to have an awesome interaction with.
