We love love love Wherigo caches and so we had to do this cache while visiting Google Next in SF. Funnily the Moscone conference center was almost next door to the other famous Trolley Turnaround at the Powell St. Station. The queues were horribly long so we just walked some blocks uphill and got on the tram easily from there. The cartridge was easily played and showed some nice touristy places. Some of the answers were not so easy to find in the Ghirardelli Square though... but with some asking around we found them. The final was also tricky as there were people working next door... but we managed to log .

Every wherigo that does a decent job, deserves an extra favo point from us! Well done! Nice artwork and funny dialogues!

My family and I (that is s'Rechnerli, selschmi, chaschmi and me, Worlddiver) were visiting the U.S. from Switzerland starting July 10th to August 8th and had a really good time!
We started in Las Vegas. After a couple caches in the city and the David Copperfield show in the evening, we soon headed off to our journey.

Via Hoover Dam, we drove towards Williams, AZ. Just to get to the Grand Canyon the next morning. From there, our travel continued to Zion N.P., Bryce Canyon and then to Salt Lake City. After a day or two in this area we went back on the road again, up to Yellowstone N.P. Later on, our route brought us to Seattle, visiting a couple friends at Groundspeak's Headquarter and then south to Portland and its Original Stash as well as some other old caches.
Finally we drove along Highway 101 and 1 along the coast towards San Francisco, followed by Los Angeles, all the way down to San Diego. I really enjoyed to be back in this city where I - back in 2004 - spent two months.
Before heading to Las Vegas for our flight back home, we also visited Death Valley N.P. and experienced 119 degrees there.

*Our main goal was not geocaching but seeing a lot of your beautiful country. But of course, there were some goals to reach in GC as well: at least one cache for each state as well as trying to possibly complete the caches for Jasmer Challenge. We were lucky enough to find all but one. This was the last cache that we would have needed. We kept looking for it for about 2 hours but came up only with a DNF. But the good thing is, we have one of those caches also here in Switzerland. So it's not really a big deal, we just need to get that one. *

----------

**Some notes about this cache:**
We did this WhereIgo this morning. We thought, it might take us about an hour. Well, in the end, it was about two hours. But two interesting hours we really enjoyed.
Unfortunately we didn't find the answer to "sign 19". Not even the staff there could help us. We were about to give up when I tried one last thing: I googled the question and sure enough, I found the correct answer. We were back in the game! Shortly later we were at the coordinates for the cache container and found it after a while. Finally we were able to log our visit.

Thank you, A Team Adventures, for this Cache.

TIME: 11:39h
