Sea Shells by the (Delaware) Sea Shore Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

ZoomiesDad: We have had this cache repeatedly stolen and I think we are giving it up for a lost cause. As a matter of fact, this summer we had most of our caches stolen and from one of the comments, we think one of the international student resort workers has decided to accumulate some caches to take home. It's discouraging.

Geocache Description:

Custom micro cache in a busy location.  Stealth required.  Lots to see.  Letterbox in Discover Sea Museum also.


Don't wait for a rainy day to visit the Discover Sea Museum which is on the top floor of Sea Shell City.  Admission free but a $3 donation would be nice.  A letterbox is in the logbook area at the entrance to the museum and available limited hours.  This cache, however, is available 24-7 as you will not need to go into the store or museum.  While visiting this cache, be sure to walk into the south west corner of the shop where shells from all over the world are available to view and purchase.  It's a great place to take the children, as both the museum and the shells will fascinate them.  Be warned.   There are lots of neat souvenirs for sale so make sure you have a game plan if the kids see something they can't live without.

Sit a spell to enjoy life in what the locals call "lower slower Delaware", a lifestyle where "next Monday" could be this coming Monday, Monday a week, Monday a month from now or whenever the fish aren't running. Many eyes but most will think you are just "tourists" looking for a lost contact lens.  Be stealthy and look for something that doesn't look quite right.

If you really get stuck, contact the CO by email for additional hints.

CONGRATULATIONS to the relentless MORTARDS for another FTF.
