The Second Year
A caching diary for 2011, my second year. The first didn’t involve a huge amount of caching. In 2011 the game stepped up a bit. Not a lot, but a bit.
It was the first year I started taking days out, as in, going off somewhere for a whole day just to go geocaching. This was kind of welcome, because on a personal level it was a year when we weren’t flush with cash, and as a result we didn’t really take any holidays. Certainly none overseas. Just a few that were “staycations” with family, as I remember.
Having said that, my job at the time involved a couple of business trips to India, and hence it became a fairly unlikely fourth country to have made a find, in addition to Morocco, UK and France.
Back at the plot, 2011 yielded 731 finds in total.
Monthly Statistics
- January – 57 finds

Summary
So there we have it, my 2011 Caching Diary. So what did I actually achieve:
- A total of 731 finds
- 100 days ticked off the “days found” list
- No days ticked off my Shifty Fifty Challenge, yet
- 1 new country – India
That’s a good continuation from last year’s start. I was still finding my feet as a geocacher. The world of statistics and challenges had yet to arrive on my doorstep. I was starting to get into the swing of it, and starting to gain the confidence to go out on bigger days.
