| Let's blow some bubbles!
Greetings from Canada. Beginsters and cavecats have taken many Mom/Daughter vacations together. This year we're on the cruise ship NCL EPIC and we will be docked in Palma de Mallorca on the day that the rest of the geocaching world is celebrating with Flash Mobs. We want to be part of this craziness, so, please accept this invitation to join us and hopefully others in blowing some bubbles and acting silly in Parc de la Mar for all of 15 minutes.
This is one of the World Wide Geocaching **Flash Mob** events.

- Wander around the park blowing bubbles, laughing and acting silly until 15h05.

- At 15h05 I will raise my hand, this is your signal
- As fast as you can, and as loud as you can, rush back to GZ.

- Got a geocoin or Travel Bug to share? Now is the time, you have 1 minute to get it done, so hurry!
|
| 15h11 - Prize Draw |

|
| 15h15 - Cheer and departure |
- I will start the chant "We are geocachers and we couldn't be prouder, if you can't hear us now then we'll shout a little louder"
- You will repeat the chant with me as loud as you can.
- As soon as this cheer is over, the container will be picked up and we will all leave GZ immediately.
- Don't look back...go...and have a wonderful day!

**So what is a Flash Mob you ask?
Well it is a bunch of people, whom on command, form a mob at a designated location, to do something a bit silly or out of the ordinary at a designated time, for a specific amount of time. Then, just as they arrived out of nowhere, they depart just the same way.
Search the term "Flash Mob" on a video site to see one in action . |
