Geocaching!

Geocaching is an international sport where people place "caches" (some kind of container with trinkets and a log book in it) in a certain spot, usually a place with a beautiful view or some other spot of interest. The GPS coordinants are then posted online for anyone to look up and find. We have now found all seven of the active Geocaches on the island of Malta, but there are three on Gozo and two on Comino. In this picture Aaron, Jon, and James (L to R) are looking at the log book where those who find the Geocache record their visit.
One of my favorite things about Geocaching is that during the hike to find the Geocache, we get to hike through parts of the countryside that we wouldn't ordinarily see. Bird hunters hide out in huts like these. Bird hunting is quite popular in Malta, although with threats of the bird flu, it might soon be made illegal.
