Geocache Description:

Congrats to Flowerman for the FTF!


Nano Cache in DC along the Potomac River, near the Kennedy Center and Watergate Hotel/Offices. It is a great place to sit and watch the planes head east along the Potomac River and then bank south with the River as they head in to Ronald Reagan Nat'l Airport.

It also offers a great view of Theodore Roosevelt Island (directly across) and the Francis Scott Key Bridge that connects Rosslyn, VA to Georgetown. The Georgetown University skyline is easily recognizable.

Some stealth required. There are plenty of muggles driving by, and there may be several on foot or bike across the road on the south end of the Rock Creek Park.

Again, it's a nano so bring a writing utensil. Please be sure to put the container back exactly as you found it.

Bonus points if you can name the song and artist that the name of this cache comes from (it is spoken at the beginning of the song), without looking it up!
