Geocache Description:

A Royal Tour of Las Colinas. Go to each of the coordinates specified, and find the matching image.

This was inspired by a cache in Kansas City, that took you on a tour of the city's fountains.

This quest will eventually lead you to a camo'ed water-tight 3"x9" metal tube (an MK-72 proximity fuze can). Bring small and/or skinny items to trade. Be careful that you don't cross-thread the cap when you screw it back on.

The coordinates you are looking for are:
N 32° AB.CDE W 096° FG.HIJ

For each letter, go to the specified coordinates. Determine which image is best associated with that location. Replace the letter in the coordinates above with that image's number.

A = N32 52.023 W096 56.683
B = N32 53.193 W096 56.381
C = N32 53.370 W096 55.917
D = N32 51.775 W096 56.078
E = N32 51.506 W096 55.908
F = N32 52.232 W096 56.326
G = N32 52.469 W096 55.914
H = N32 53.647 W096 56.402
I = N32 51.879 W096 56.121
J = N32 51.660 W096 55.678

There are 10 letters, and 12 images, so obviously not every image has an associated location, but each location corresponds to only one image. The angle or perspective may not be what you're expecting. Some of these are easy drive-bys. Others may require a little walking. You may be able to figure a few of these out just using your knowledge of the city, and a map. That's fine. Any way you solve it is okay with me.

If you need a better view of any image, just click on it, and a larger version will be displayed. You'll probably need to print off the images above to solve this. I've created a condensed webpage (link below) that just has the 12 images and the coordinate list. It should print on a 8½×11 sheet of paper.

To make life a little easier, you can download a LOC file (link below) containing the 10 coordinates. The waypoints will be labeled A through J. You may want to plot these on a map. Hitting them in order (A to J) will not be the most efficient way to visit these sites.
