Zombies!

Posted by wimseyguy in the Groundspeak Forum.

Two weekends ago medic208 and I drove up to DC to attend an event at the Masonic Lodge and do some cache hunting. After the event on Saturday we set off on foot across the town finding all the virtuals and urban micros in our path, which took us down toward the Federal Triangle area. As I was noting the data for the virtual Q2A I saw a parade/protest march? across the street, which didn't seem too odd to me since we were in DC. But as they drew closer I realized they were all dressed oddly and walking in an uncoordinated manner.

Then I realized they were zombies! ohmy.gif And then I remembered... it was Halloween weekend. laugh.gif

We saw them again up towards Chinatown while seeking another cache after dinner.

When I got back home to log my finds a quick Google search revealed that it was an organized lurch and not just a random gathering of zombies. laughing.gif The ride back to the hotel was even more interesting costume-wise. rolleyes.gif
