This and last year there was big meeting of people from LN.org and other Avatar fans; next year maybe it will be too. I can't go there, it's too far away. But I found a way how to be there. I send my ikran!
I created this small friend, which now flies across the world. Maybe he will land at that meeting, maybe he will fly to different place. I don't know; nobody knows. If he reach the correct place, meeting participants will be able to read message carried by ikran. It's my "hello" to all.
How ikran moves? By help of other people. You can track him at geocaching.com. Use tracking code TB3YKY4 (you do not need account).
If you meet him, please help him. I want him to come to the meeting and bring my message. I believe it is possible.
Good fly, BlueGreen Flyer and be well!

Geohunt madness

On last Saturday I was on trip. My wife with daughters was at the sea, so why to sit at home. I had plan to go by car to Vsetín, than continue by train or bus to Bystřička, go to dam (here is recreation area) and by walk back to Vsetín. I went through this path already, is takes about 20 kilometres. But I'm also geocacher, so let's look what we can do in this area. Whoa, I found about 40 caches here - it is real madness! Of course not all are on my path, but in surrounding places. How to optimize my traveling to find as many caches as possible? Solution was to go directly to dam by bus, go circle trace here and continue to Vsetín.


Easy to say and go there, but... time planing  is the hardest part. Due to bus delay I arrived at 10:30 and went to the start of 10 caches serie, which should take about an hour. But it took more than hour to get there, although I've also found one cache out of this serie. And complete serie took about two and half hours. Well, searching requires some time, especially when you misinterpret hint...
So I ended at the time when I should be on the way back to Vsetín. Ok, I'll try some other cache and return by bus. As I was hungry, I've selected the shortest possible path - the direct line. No problem, GPS lead me correctly, but another hour left. I found next cache and another one had to give up and as quickly as possible went to restaurant. It was some more than hour to bus departure, so I eat some food and tried my last multi-cache, but I found that I have coordinates just for first stage, other two were missing. Damn!
Okay, I'll be back again in the future and find them all. Finally I have 13 caches collected, that's fair good number too. Day was spent in correct way.

Undercity cave

Last Friday I was on another geo-hunt. I found that in our city is cache, located in some forgotten old cave, with lake. Entrance is at the shore of river, near big shopping centre. So, I prepared some equipment, like rubber boots and torch. According the listing I though there's a big cave with stalactites, but....
After a few meters after entrance I entered the sewer, quite big so I was able to stand without problems (I'm 190 centimeters tall...). I went more than 200 meters (it was distance needed to reach the cache), but found nothing. Just something like small "bath-tub" (30 x70 cm).
However I was not disappointed - it was exciting to walk under the city. At home I read records of previous visitors of the cave and.... well, I became victim of geo-joke, I think.
Cave in fact was eartch-cache, so nothing to find. And lake in the cave - was that bath-tub I found :)
So it was big joke and simply I caught myself. It is nice if there are people what can create such funny actions.

Things exchange

Yesterday while driving from my mother to home, I went to hunt for cache and took my daughters with me to show them something new. To find the cache was quite easy, but there was problem on exchange. As cachers should do fair trade, one should exchange thing by another thing. And I had just one thing, but two daughters :) I changed small plastic piggy for corals and have given then to the younger Barbora. But Magdalena get angry as she wanted something too (not saying that inside was also travel bug. I didn't dare to take it as it would lead to endless complaints (dad, why you didn't want to give it to me?)). Ngaytxoa, ma 'ite - haya alo... Next time we must prepare better.

New amusement

Oel rolun mipa tì'o'ti - I have found a new amusement :) It is geocaching - searching for hidden things named caches using GPS coordinates. How it occurred?
A week ago we had meeting of class friends from the high school (25th anniversary of completion of the school). Two of them mentioned they are geocachers and I remembered last year I was on geo-hunt (see first post of this blog). So, why to not try myself too? One just must register on www.geocaching.com and that's all. I was surprised how many caches are directly in my city and near surrounding. So I spent some time to discover rules, found that my mobile (Nokia 2710) with appropriate software can be used as GPS, downloaded the software and learnt how to use it. And here's result - today I found my first cache (GC2H3G2)! It is very near to my flat, but I visited that place three times:
1/ to collect information needed for getting final coordinates
2/ to find the final position. This time I wasn't successful yet as I did just quick find
3/ to do deep search and finish action!
It was micro (or even nano) size cache - small cylinder of diameter 1 cm and length 1.5 cm, kept by magnet under metal surface. My joy was really big. Even if I will not be cacher with hundreds of found caches, I'm sure it is great amusement. You must often solve quiz to get coordinates and go to the place you won't visit otherwise. That's both good - you train your brain and see new places. Both actions counts.
