The location is special to her and not just some random faraway island in the North Sea.
    Congrats

    Can you override the geocache box ?

    Yes and no. We have talked about marraige etc. in the way of "when we're married..." but I think the actual asking would be a surprise (in a good way).

    In short, christmas day she gets a walnut box that is locked and has a button and lcd screen on the top. Press the button and it tells you the distance to where the box can be opened and the number of attempts (increasing by 1 each time the button is pressed) to 50.

    "This is attempt 1 of 50"
    Distance 451km
    *Access Denied*
    Powering Off"

    press it again you get "Attempt 2 of 50" etc.
