Before placing the The Two Seasons of December - Gold Geocoin, I took some better pictures for my records.
Town: Bempton
This was a multipart cache through the nature reserve at Bempton, which we did whilst staying in Bridlington. Some of Becca's old uni mates helped us.
A truly great cache where we saw many birds nesting of the cliffs including Puffins.
Before we could find the cache we had to find information from 3 points first. This is one of the best caches we had done.
We left The Two Seasons of December - Gold Geocoin, and picked up a nice Geocoin.
Date found: 25/07/09

This was the third and final cache tonight, and a niche cache to end with on a country road.
The cache was quite well hidden but if you use the clue it's easy to find.

The cache was a small magnetic cache hidden is a great place.
We were able to park right next to the Cache.

Town: Nr Scunthorpe.
The first cache of 3 on a lovely night of Geocaching with a large group of geocaches friends.
Not a lot of walking tonight as all of the caches were easily reachable by car.
This was good as it meant that we finished earlier then expected and we were able to go out for dinner together.
We found the Two Seasons of December - Gold GeoCoin here.

I popped along to check out our cache today, just to make sure that it's still there (it is), and I got a great view, Brigg's family of Swans were taking shelter under the Bridge.
There are 9 babies in this batch but unfortunatly it looks like a single parent family.
A nice suprise for sure.
Here's a couple of pictures that
Today we went out to see the cliffs at Bempton whilst on the way to find a cache and we had a very enjoyable couple of hours there bird watching in fantastic sunshine.
Bempton Cliffs are famous for it's bird colonies and wildlife and it's easy to see way - there were literally thousands of birds flying and there are 5 really good vantage points from where to see the birds or to take nice photo's.
We even managed to see a puffin or 2.
After the birdwatching we went to find a cache is nearby Buckton, unfortunatly depsite the cache being found the day before we came back empty handed.

What a great Cache and what a great evening.
We parked at the recommended parking position and had a great 1.5 k walk to the cache.
The walk took us along the banks of the River Humber and I never knew how pretty the location was. The walk took us along right next to the river and along a white stoned beach. The weather and the views made this cache one of the nicest we have done.

This find started a great evening on Geocaching in beautiful Weather.
We were able to drive almost right the way up to the cache and the gang was quick to find the cache.
There are great views of the River Humber from this high vantage point.
