We were visiting Huntingdon to find several TerraCaches and this OpenCache, but we very nearly didn't get here. We stopped to do a few Church Micros on the way from Monk's Wood, and as we were leaving the last one the heavens opened, the rain teemed down and the wind was lashing across the fields. We almost abandoned caching for the day, but spotted a welcoming pub and stopped for a baguette and a pint. And when we came out, the rain had completely stopped Laughing .
The car park in Needingworth was in very bad shape due to the prolonged wet weather, but as we were the only ones around we were able to leave the car on hard standing near the entrance. A very boggy walk brought us to the cache, which was a quick find.
Thanks for the cache - it was nice to reach here after all, having thought we might not Laughing .

Amberel and I visited Huntingdonshire on a TerraCaching mission but we were not going to pass on the opportunity to find this OpenCache too.....Well, that's not quite true.....We fully intended to look for this cache but the sky fell down and we got caught in a deluge just after getting back into Amberel's car at the previous cache and that could easily have been the end of caching for the day.

However, fortune favoured us: we were tempted into a pub to warm up have a sandwich and nice ale, and by the time we emerged, the rain had stopped.

This cache trail was a very soggy affair but a pleasant walk none the less - the deluge couldn't have made it much soggier than it was already!  The cache was a quick find and we were soon on our way to the last TerraCache of the day,
