Another travel day with the folkses, this time to Drumheller which is not too far from home! We went to enjoy the drive and to visit the Royal Tyrrell Museum, but before the museum we did a lovely walk through the town to get some geocaching in!
One of our first stops was Riverside Park, which is along the beautiful Red Deer River that runs through the town:
We found an obvious but not too obvious to muggles geocache under one of the park benches:
Here we have the world’s largest dinosaur, and it just may be the site of a virtual geocache:
There were dinosaurs all over the town:
This little guy is super cute, had to get a picture with him!
The Drumheller water tower, in the middle of town:
…I shall call him Blue!!
The pergola-looking structure in the background of the picture below contained a nano cache! It was a good thing some other geocachers beat us to it and we saw where they found it, otherwise we may have been looking for awhile:
A couple nano caches that we found, these things are TINY:
Which is the cache, the rock or…? The first of it’s kind for me, a favourite for sure:
This sea cadet hall sure brings back memories, good ones of course! R.C.S.C.C Furious, what a cool name, haha! No I don’t know the background of the name, but it’d be awesome to say I was from R.C.S.C.C (Royal Canadian Sea Cadet Corps) Furious 😛
Couldn’t walk through the town and not stop at Valley Brewing, the local brewery. It only just opened at the beginning of August! We didn’t stay long but did buy some beer to take home along with a bunch of SWAG.
Found another geocache at the top of one of the hills. I took a trackable and left a couple more behind:
Another cutie, this skeletal dinosaur:
And the final stop before heading home, the museum:
It was a wonderful summer day for this trip!
