Geocache Description:

This is the last in a series of 9 caches named after the Star Wars episodes. THE COORDINATES ABOVE ARE BOGUS

To get your smiley, you must

1) solve the puzzle below and find and sign the logbook at the final stage of this 2-stage mystery cache;

2) log your find on this web page;

3) email me both the real name of the Star Wars episode this cache is named after AND the name of the coffee shop the first stage of this cache is hidden behind.

Please DO NOT post this information on this web site.

To obtain the coordinates for the first stage calculate the following:

Number of letters in the color of Yoda’s skin.
Number of letters in the color of the Royal Guard’s robes times 2.
Number of letters in the color of Princess Leia’s bikini minus 4.

Number of letters in the color of Luke Skywalker’s milk minus 2.
Number of letters in the main color of the Clone Troopers in Phase 1 armor plus 2.
Number of letters in the color of Darth Vader’s mask plus 3.

Wookieepedia might help you find some of the answers.

You can check your answer for this puzzle on Geochecker.com.

The other caches in this series are:
Episode I: Starbucks Wars: The Frappacino Menace
Episode II: Starbucks Wars: Attack of the Scones
Episode III: Starbucks Wars: Revenge of the Sip

Episode IV: Starbucks Wars: A New Joe
Episode V: Starbucks Wars: The Espresso Strikes Back
Episode VI: Starbucks Wars: Return of the Java (archived - to be replaced soon).

Episode VII: Starbucks Wars: The Fallen Croissant
Episode VIII: Starbucks Wars: The Republican Crisis
Episode IX: Victory of the Bean

There is controversy about whether there was supposed to be a third trilogy (Episodes VII, VIII, and IX). If you go to this web page you can find the titles of these episodes: Star Wars Episodes VII, VIII, IX

I hope you have as much fun finding this one as I had placing it. There are lots of fun Star Wars things for FTF to choose from.

May The Force be with you!

FTF: P's Baba...in house slippers Congratulations!!
