11/13~15 與 Edge兄的 80 年代懷舊兼打寶之旅

Edge 是我的高中同學，我們在高中時作過不少瘋狂的事情。讀研究所的時候，在中山大學曾經有一年的相遇，後來就又失聯多年。沒想到，竟然因為 Geocache 又相遇在一起了。這次 Edge 相邀在中部團獵之後，我們一起開著車，經過我們曾經在高中留下美麗回憶的清境農場，一起回憶當年的歲月。沿途撥著我們耳熟能詳的 80 年代熱門音樂。後來我們就稱我們這次旅行為 80 年代懷舊兼打寶之旅。途中經過 8 號省道的 88 公里處，一時興起，安置了一個 geocache 來紀念這次的旅行。


8-88
Back to 80s.

Edge and I had a journey back to our 80s ages, those good old days of our young. We had 80s songs keep playing in our car, shared old memory between us, and pitied to those times not waiting us and passed.

And in the road, we passed through an 8-88 benchmark and decided to setup a cache to remember this journey.

If you visited this cache, please note your safety, because there is no safe place to park your car. Please log the cache and leave as soon as possible. The cache is put at left side of the photo beside us.

Nice and quiet view of the place, worth to stay longer for deep thinking. However we have a very busy schedule today. What a pity to a hunter like me.

Go to Black Chilai
After waiting up from a storming-like and sleepless night, we went to visit the place. Few hikers are near the place and planed to climb in such bad weathers, good luck to them. Because the it really a day for hiking, especial it is a famous black mountain in Taiwan.

I have been visited Chilai before when I'm a college boy. In my memory, we have a great time on mountain, and I really wanted to stay more days in mountain. The log remind me my good old days.

Thanks BuBu for the cache to my memory.

Wow, this cache is really difficult.

We could not found the cache for the first time. And then we visited two others nearby first. After having lunch, we visited again. Edge is so determined to find the cache, we use all kind of methods, peeking, touching, feeling with fingers, jumping, iPhone video recording, geofriend navigation. And finally, monkey hanging solve our problem.

Thanks BuBu, the cache is just too difficult.
