I dont remember my first cache. I joined the hobby with my brother.
However, I got a gps for christmas, and got really into the hobby. Just after christmas we knew we had to break it in, so we did one down by my home town on louis head beach.
My boyfriend and I travelled about a mile down the beach in december with the wind blowing and it was so cold. We found it without much trouble and decided to take a much more sheltered walk back.
