Irvine Beach

I was off work today looking after the kids who are on their November break from school so we decided to head down to Irvine beach for a walk and a spot of geocaching.

First up was Irvine Beach Park - Enter the Dragon but we decided to pay Irvine Beach Park - Amazing a wee visit first. We've logged that cache before but out littlest Super Collector wasn't with us on that day and wanted to see it today. Found the cache right away as we knew where is would be and were pleased to find a GeoCoin.

On to the Dragon next which we've visited before but couldn't find it. Today the cache was easy to locate but the littlest Super Collector was needed to reach into grab the cache out of it's wee hole.

Further up the beach we found Dirty Harry and inside was a Remembrance Poppy trackable. We found this quite fitting seeing as the date is 11/11/11. The attached poem "In Flanders Fields" was quite moving.

Last of the day was to be In The Dunes which is still further down the beach. Met up with some other cachers whilst hunting for this one but we found it first and grabbed a Geocoin. They left a couple of other trackables which we left for the next visitor but after building a sandcastle with the kids (eh it's November!) we headed back and collected those too.
