In this weeks Cache Walk we head out to find a kiwi in the English countryside. It was carved into the hillside at the end of World War 1. Come with us as we look for the Bulford Kiwi and it's geocaches.

Extremely interesting as always. Must have been a letterbox hide?....often a wee challenge for sure. I felt a lot of empathy for the young fellas who served in a most terrifying conflict, after which they longed to return to their homeland, family, and trade. Many thanks for sharing your adventures.

Thanks glad you liked it. Yes very hard for men so young. I remember visiting my brothers fathers grave in Italy (World War II). I was 28 when I visited and realised I was older than almost every soldier buried there. A very sobering moment I will never forget.

That was quite interesting and we can see why the men were so frustrated. Nice old ammo can. Looks like the one we found in Aruba, the country's oldest. It was rusting away.

Love ammo cans when we find them. They are rare around here. Old ones rust out here to.

Yes glad we found it. Just found out that the local school is called Kiwi and there are street names named after places here in New Zealand.
