Yay!!!! I have finally managed to complete my first book all about mini adventures, and it was available from late October. This blog post is well overdue to tell you about it, but life has been revolving around adopting a retired sled dog from Norway (see my instagram highlights and photos), which happened just after the book became available. So I …
Geocaching – A Useful Way Of Keeping Little Ones Hiking
Geocaching is something we have had a lot of fun with. It has an ulterior motive though for me, and that is it’s a way to keep my three little people going on a hike. Although you can find geocaches in urban areas as well. The distraction of a “treasure hunt” is enough to make them forget their grumbles out …
Beautiful Puzzle Box Geocaches.
Today we returned to the beautiful Tromtö Nature Reserve to do 2 more of the puzzle geocache series. The first 2 we did a few weeks ago, we had managed to figure out (just), but with the activity log saying that the puzzle boxes got harder, I made sure I was returning with Dadda to help me get into them …
Tromtö Nature Reserve and Puzzle Geocaches
Going along with the resolution of exploring Sweden more, we headed off for our week’s hike through Tromtö Nature Reserve. I had a peek on the map last night and there were quite a few geocaches round this route, so we took our loot and headed off. This is a large nature reserve and it will take a few visits …
Bikes, Hikes, and a Surprise Geocache

So, first thing this morning, before their gymnastics, we headed off to an open space for them to have a …
Our First Geocaching Adventure in Sweden.
Last night I suddenly remembered about my geocaching app, and I wondered if there were any surrounding our stuga here. When I got our location up, and the geocaches in the surrounding woods formed this pattern, I knew we just had to give some of them a try!! Someone has worked really hard at this configuration, and it may even …
Hiking and a Geocache Haul.
Another day and another removal man for a visit, and a surveyor for a nosy!!! So, after that we headed out into the undergrowth heading back to Manor Farm where our little lady and I got such a great haul a month or so ago. We had promised the mini men we would return there with them, and today seemed …
Exploring, Geocaching, and Bringing our Dog Home.
The first job for today was to head over to the vet to pick up our lovely collie dog after his cremation 🙁 When I grew up, we must have left one of our homes with about three dogs and two rabbits buried in the garden by my father. This was fine, and as a child I remember liking having them …
