This is the 1st Cache made. Since this is a family event we placed it on family property.

Container is a small spray painted black Tupperware. Bring Pen or Pencil.
Bring a fishing pole too. After you find the cache, look at the bridge over the canal. You can fish directly from the bridge, or follow the canal to the open sea. At the mouth of the the canal, is a great spot to fish as well. There is even a "mom and pop" bait store ready to sell you what you need for a quick fishing trip. Bring YEN no dollars.
During the growing season, the entire area is covered with sugar cane along the canal, bring a knife and have a few pieces. The place is scattered with cow farms. Please respect the property of others. Do not enter any buildings.
Enjoy the Cache, and happy fishing.

We looked all around the monument and found nothing but a dead bird. With construction going on and a muggle walking up and down the street,
it kinda ruined the moment, so we decided that it might have been muggled considering
2 people before us did not find it either.

No love today. Saw a couple of good hiding spots, but found nothing but an old snake skin.
