Conveniently, the newly published "Sharjah's Jungle" was really close to one of the other remaining to be discovered caches, "Animal Instincts". So we decided to bundle these two together, and scratch a few more off the list!
Both were extremely fun, and very educational. Ok, so "Animal Instincts" wins the educational award, hands down, but SJ was very rewarding in its own right. It never ceases to amaze me at how things can grow in one of the worlds most inhospitable environments! Even in the UAE several people die every year in these deserts, usually tourists, totally underestimating the devastating effects of the extreme desert heat!
So we found the two caches, within about 10 km of each other, and yet taking about 6 hours to complete... man, time just gets away from me these days!
We also went venturing for a new cache location, and we came across UAE's version of Area 51. It was weird, and oddly out of place. It would make a nice UFO landing spot :)
We ended up hiding my fairer half's "UAE Cache" around this location. Check it out, and tell me it isn't strange.
I will sort through some photos and add em to the blog in the next day or so.
