My first cache!

My very first cache was the great turnaround nearby KSU football stadium!

It was not difficult to find, but I had to go twice because I wrote down a coordinate from a wrong system (NAD27). Well, at least now I know that WGS 84 and NAD27 are indeed different.

It was a cloudy day and the campus was quite due to the spring break. To be honest with you, I didn't know what to expect, so I went unprepared. But when I find and opened the box, I understand why so many people are participating geocaching. It was very exciting to find something extraordinary from somewhat ordinary place. And the contents of the box tells you that people really enjoy this event. There are many goodies in it. (I thought some people would leave junks in it.) I wasn't prepared to leave anything, so, I just enjoyed to examine what they left.

Well, I guess I'm getting into this game!
