SL at 3:55 pm. Failed to complete three of the tasks yesterday when both our Smartphone and iPad (...brought our NEW iPad3 with us as backup) failed to fire up at two of the three Zones farthest from the posted coords. Figuring the tall buildings may have had something to do with it, we drove back out today to give it another try. Another three and a half hours of driving in circles down one-way streets waiting for each of the locations to fire up, we finally completed the other two Zones, having discovered where we had gone wrong. Can't believe we forgot to turn on BOTH gps functions on the phone (...android requires activating both phone and app gps functions?!), which of course we only discovered after driving all the way back to the posted coords thinking it would somehow activate the cartridge? Located (after a bit of a search) and turned on the second gps function (...the wherigo app) Zone 1 fired up immediately...then quickly made our way back to Zones 3 and 4 to give them another try. All Zones now completed, completion code and coords punched in, we were off to grab the final. Two days and five simple tasks that should have only taken us a couple of hours, start to finish, since three of the Zones were fairly close together, took us approx. 8 1/2 hours to complete (...driving time included), ended up being one of the most rewarding and CHALLENGING wherigo's we've completed to date. GREAT JOB Khan!
