INTRODUCTION:
Elba and Napoleon: two names who are connected to each other forever.
A special part of Napoleon’s life was his exile to Elba, which lasted about 300 days, from 3rd May 1814 until 26th February 1815.
He exiled voluntarily, because his army suffered many losses in the battles in Russia and at Leipzig. During his stay he realized a immense grow of the prosperity for the citizens of Elba: he took care for a better roadsystem, built a strong harbour-defense of Porto Azurro and developed the wine trade and mining-industry very firmly.
The little man with the large deeds will always be remembered and deserves his own geocache!
Now it’s time to find the big secrets of the little Napoleon!
NAPOLEON’S SECRETS #3: AQUA DI VITA
During his stay Napoleon travelled all over the lovely island. He met the friendly citizens, but discovered also some interesting places. At the westcoast you’ll find “La sedia di Napoleon”. This is a rock, from which he loved to observe his beloved Corsica. Further he discovered the power of the natural mineral water from sources at the Monte Capanne. Here, at this very spot you can taste water that was his most healthy secret. He was convinced that the water from this source was healing. Nowadays this water is commercially distributed.
Drink it at the source and you’ll feel yourself a lot stronger to solve the last geocache in this serie “Napoleon’s secrets: Il Finàle!”
MISSION: FIND HERE THE MICRO WITH THE LOG AND THE CODES “E” AND “L” FOR THE FINAL CACHE “NAPOLEON’S SECRETS: IL FINÀLE”
