2010-09-28 14:15 Amberel (611) - Found it
By now I was soaked to the bone by the wind driven rain, and had this not been an OpenCache I would have headed back to the motor-bike long ago! I can't see very well without my glasses on, but today the visibility was even worse when I was wearing them!
As I walked along the footpath looking for an opening on my left I hoped this would be an atypical Gribben placement and would not involve scrambling over difficult terrain to reach the cache.
But my worst fears were realised . I made my way over what were by now treacherously slippery rocks and never was more grateful to see a cache box . Despite the dreadful weather, this was another TOP CACHE, see http://www.amberel.com/topcache.htm .
This was my final find of the holiday, and it was a shame it ended in such poor weather. It was still some way back to the motor-bike, and in retrospect I didn't choose the best route.
Once back to the car park I found my bike to be the only vehicle present. I carted my overnight bag into the public conveniences and dug yesterday's clothes out of the dirty washing bag - they were in a lot better condition than the ones I was wearing .
Feeling a lot better in dry clothes, and with the rain by now beginning to abate, I headed back to London with lots of mostly pleasant memories of my holiday, and 10 more TOP CACHE coins to make!!!
Thanks for the cache,
Rgds, Andy
