Geocaching


For the first time ever our friend Molly took Erin and I 'Geocaching', where people have stashed little trinkets and things around the globe and posted their coordinates on a website, and you can use a GPS to find it-like a global scavenger hunt!  Molly actually set one in American Samoa (on Tutuila, the island we were on) and went with Erin and I to check on it, but of course she made us find it first! It was a blast! Most people take what is there and leave something new for the next person, but since this was Molly's we just left it alone. Someone had left a cool coin. Since it was the only one on Tutuila, we are talking of stashing a new one next inport. Here we are starting our search, after a hilarious bus ride out to the N edge of the island. The buses blast their local renditions of american music-so very funny. They are open and painted all crazy, and you just knock on the roof when you want to get off, and they pull over. We still have no idea how much it costs to ride-we just gave the guy a dollar each when we got off.
