Calabash Traditional Cache
Didy Man: Too much work involved to keep these caches nice, they are robbed or not put back the way they were found way too often, it was fun while it lasted. Cheers, Didy Man

Cache is located along side a beautiful hiking trail in Curacao in the Netherland Antilles.
This cache called the Calabash is named after the unique trees that are found in this area bearing fruit that are dried and made into bowls, cups etc.. It is almost 3/4th of a mile from the cache named Slave Wall. Cache is located on a spectacular hiking/mountain biking trail about a meter wide that overlooks the salt lake, easy to walk, but is for advanced mountain bikers only. There is a tree along the trail that has a very unique limb sticking out from near the base (it's about a foot off the ground), two people can actually sit on it, it's like a natural bench! From the tree the cache is 21 paces or steps to the North/West (staying on the trail) it's behind a big square boulder. Contents of cache are inside a clear rubbermaid container with a green lid. PLEASE folks when you find these cache's put the stones/wood back just how you found them, will help to keep them hidden. Keep your eyes open for wild flamingos out on the water. Good luck!
