Geocache Description:

de ja vu?

There is already a great array of family friendly caches in Canberra. I hope that particularly families with young children will also enjoy this new easy cache.

Of course it is open to us all because as geocachers, we are often re-discovering the curiousity and child-like nature that still lurks beneath adulthood.

The cache is not at the coordinates above - however at this location and nearby you will find the answers to the clues below. The GZ should be less than 100 metres away.

The cache itself is actually located at S35 12.ABC E 149 01.DEF

There are two small plastic containers - one for the log and one for very small swaps. Although not really fitting in with the name of the cache, I have initially filled the swap container with "precious" shells (precious at least for little kids).

Clues:

A: How many platypus? Multiply by 3.

B. Number of pawprints, plus number of toes on a single paw, plus 1

C: Number of letters in recipe name at initial location, divide by two

D: Number value of the obviously biggest letter in the jumbled letters - add the two digits together

E: Welcome to ? - number of letters minus 1

F: Below the jumbled letters, there are two rows listing the full alphabet. Take the number value of the third letter of the second row and add its two digits together.

Note: Letter values "A" to "Z" have number values 1 to 26.

PS Thanks to Captain Tomato for helping with checking the clues and coords.
