Where the (Geo) chash at? Where the, where the cash at?

Geocashing was an activity I had never done, but heard great things about. I was always curious to know how a GPS unit worked. Using a GPS unit a skill that I know will come in handy in the future, as a teacher and someone who enjoys traveling. We started off the day by learning how the GPS unit worked and that was followed by getting into groups and hiding a cashes. After we hid ours and found the coordinates, we took a break. When our lunch ended we came back to use our GPS units and find our classmates cashes. It took a while, but we found everyone's, and also came to notice that we gave the rest of our class the wrong coordinates. Geocashing is something I can see myself doing in the future and teaching in the classroom!
