Geocache Description:

R.I.P. Mojo's.

Rock the Kasbah!


This cache will bring you to the building that I have probably spent more time in the past 4 years than anywhere else. All of you old Austinites will probably remember the now-defunct Mojo's Daily Grind. Mojo's was my home away from home, and the epitome of what was cool about Austin; It was like cheers (but with coffee), where you always knew someone and someone always knew you, no matter what the time of day. Mojo's was a staple part of The Drag, and it was sad to see this part of Austin history go.

2714 Guadalupe has gone through a reincarnation into a Moroccan tea house: Kasbah, moroccan lounge. The place is pretty damn cool, and has regained much of the old Mojo's regulars. It is in honor of the reincarnation of one of the coolest places in Austin that I am placing this cache.

You are looking for a disquised micro. Please do not mess with the pottery or plants, these are not the containers you are looking for. move along.. Those familiar with the caches of Team GeoDillo will probably be familiar with this kind of container. If you're having trouble with coordinates, you might try letting your GPSr settle a bit at the east end of the lot. I didn't get consistent coordinates until I did this. If you're still having trouble, check the clues. I have rated this a 3 because of the extreme proximity and number of muggles during just about any time of the day. Please practice extreme stealth when retreiving this cache.

Parking is available in the rear of the building, accessible from the front drive on the north side of the lot, or the alley between 27th and 28th. The hours have changed recently to 7am-3am. The cache is still accessible during closing hours (short as they are), so if you have the need to get this *very* early in the morning, you should still be able to. This makes a great night cache, especially with the added challenge/difficulty of muggles in very close proximity even (and especially) during late hours.

This cache was placed with the permission of the management and business owner.
