Geocaching in Central Park
One of the later clues involved this worn, gothic iron bridge.
Yesterday, Bobby and I went geocaching in Central Park. It was a great excuse to enjoy the weather, get some exercise and solve some (light) puzzles. We started off in the furthest reaches of the park, near Morningside Heights and Columbia University, and made our way down until reaching our stopping point (Trader Joe's).
Our stopping point was somewhere around this building, where someone heckled me for taking a picture because apparently enjoying things is verboten.
The clues showcased the park's beautiful bridges and sloping pathways, which have served its visitors for decades.
After the fifth or sixth clue (out of 30) I begged Bobby to sit down somewhere, so we rested near a playground with giant hippos made of marble. As utterly repulsive and Trump-like as that sounds, it was nice, I promise!
The Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir is where I'd run if I were cool enough, and ran.
I didn't capture the tacky playground in all its vainglory, so here's a picture of the nearby reservoir instead, which isn't horrible and actually serves a purpose.
Yeager out.
