Geocache Description:

A challenge cache situated at the junction of the Ballygowan Road and the Knock Dual Carriageway.  The cache IS at the posted co-ordinates. The first in the Travelling Cacher Challenge series.


The Travelling Cacher Challenge series

A series of caches placed in and around the greater Belfast area to celebrate the global aspect of geocaching and the fact that one of the joys of a global game is that you can always take it with you.

The cache is located at an 'international' crossroads in East Belfast. Why is it international? Well, on offer are foodstuffs from India, China, Thailand, Italian/American and good old fish and chips, there's also a bank with Ireland in it's name, where else could be as inspiring for an avid traveller?

3 in 3 Challenge

As mentioned above, the cache IS at the posted co-ordinates but can ONLY be logged as found if the rules listed below are followed!

Both travelling and geocaching are great fun, so it only makes sense to see and cache as far and wide as possible in the time you have available. In order to log this cache you must have successfully found a cache in each of three different countries on three consecutive days.

We completed this in June 2013 by finding the following caches:

20/6/2013 GC33KZ2 Herceg Novi Square - Montenegro
21/6/2013 GC3PC6F Orebić Underground - Croatia
22/6/2013 GC29Z6N Sinking River Trebižat - Bosnia and Herzegovina

The cache is a magnetic nano, not very exciting we know, but appropriate for the hiding spot and challenge caches are not generally good hunting grounds for swaps and trackables. The difficulty is set to reflect the challenge difficulty, the difficulty of the physical cache is difficulty 1.


Rules to log this cache:
 
1. You must have finds on three caches in three different countries on three consecutive days.
2. This cache cannot count as one of your three caches above.
3. Please demonstrate this logging requirement any way you see fit: text in the log (with details as above), create a Bookmark list, etc.
4. Dates will be confirmed and logs not following the rules will be deleted.
5. For the purpose of what constitutes a country I will be using the list of sovereign nations found here. You've 195 to choose from (at the time of placing) and just to be absolutely clear, there's only two countries on that list that are located in the British Isles.
 
Please replace the cache EXACTLY as found after logging.

At the time of posting 18 of our 206 finds (8.7%) were found outside of our home country (UK)

CONGRATULATIONS TO STEP_7 FOR THE FIRST TO FIND!
