Adventure
What have the Romans ever done for us? Given us the Latin ‘adventurus’; meaning ‘about to happen’, from advenire ‘arrive’. That’s what.
The ‘Adventure’ part of the ‘DragonDrop Adventures’ moniker, was spawned from “Watchcam Adventures”. Now defunct, but once the world’s leading forum on all things watch camera. Now-a-days, the ‘Adventure’ category is the flag bearer for new, unusual, exciting or daring experiences.

I'm in America. At the Wyndham hotel near Miami airport to be specific (which I have to say is very nice, especially as I blagged a huge staff discount). First time I've been to the States. It feels so familiar yet…
Hunters stonesWe went hunting for this geocache this afternoon. This is on of 'the originals' in the area. As you can see by the arial photograph, it's in the middle of nowhere. In the midst of Norwood Forest to be exact. It was…
