Another warmish wake-up call this morning, a little overcast initially but showing room for improvement. After breakfast Lyn finished yet another project, a custom made bag to take all the geocaching stuff in.
We headed out to Brunswick, me to try and persuade the local bank to part with one of their credit cards and Lyn to look at some of the stores in the old part of Brunswick. Lyn came out of the trip more successful than I did. I guess one thing that Canada and the US don’t share is credit history, I have none! I was offered a credit card, in fact one with high limits. The catch was if I wanted a $5000 limit, there would be no problem as long as I lodged $5000 with the bank. I guess that would be a self funded credit card. I think I’ll put up with not being able to use my credit card on the gas pump machines down here.
After Brunswick we headed over to Jekyll Island for a walk and geocaching. We decided to walk along the beach, and yet again we were pretty much the only people on it.
We racked up 2 miles walking on the beach, then had our picnic sitting at one of the many tables on the grass above the beach.
Time to go geocaching. We went to find a cache that we had not found on a previous visit. On that visit we were using the phone as a GPS and it was nowhere near as accurate as our new GPS. This time we found what we were looking for.

One of the caches was the smallest we have found to date. It was hidden on the cross piece of the sign shown below.
Below shows the size.
We managed to find 3 out of 4 caches today.
The weather continued to improve throughout the day, changing to clear blue skies and 22°C
