Vanalinna aare

29.02.08 Peitsin aarde Tallinna uhkesse Vanalinna. Aarde leidmiseks tuleb, aga natuke vaeva näha. Osa informatsiooni võib leida internetist, kuid osa infot saab vaid teatud kohtadesse kohale minnes. Kõik infopunktid asuvad Vanalinnas nagu ka lõppaare. Kui oled leidnud lõppaarde, siis palun ära reeda aarde asupaika kõrvalistele isikutele. Olles oma toimingud lõpetanud aseta aare peidikusse tagasi ning ära reeda aarde asukohta veebilogis. Aitäh!

Lõppaarde koordinaadid on DD:MM.MMM kujul.

59:AB.CDE

A - Mis aastast kulub Tallinna Vanalinn UNESCO Maailmapärandi nimekirja? Võta aastaarvu kaks viimast numbrit ja lahuta väiksem suuremast.
B - Mis majas toimus Kuradi pulm? Selle majanumbri viimane number.
C - Mitu puud on Rohelisel turul? Jaga saadud tulemus neljaga.
D - Mitu hauakivi on välja pandud Katariina käigus? Liida numbrid omavahel.
E - "Kolme õe" maja küljes on infotahvel. Leia infotahvlilt kõige alumine arv ning liida need numbrid kokku.

F - Mis aastal mainiti esimest korda ajalooüürikutes Tallinna Raeapteeki. Liida aastaarvu kaks viimast numbrit.
G - Mis aastal sai Tallinn Lüübeki linnaõigused? Jaga aastaarvu viimane number kahega.
H - Mitu lohepeakujulist veesülitit on Tallinna Raekojal.
I - Loe ära Nõelasilma värava astmed ja jaga saadud arv kahega.
J - Loe ära mitu trepiastet on Lühikese jala algusest Pikale jalale. Jaga saadud arv 13-ga.

Head jalutuskäiku meie vanas Vanalinnas ning head leidmist! Aardest alustab teed "Old Thomas" nimeline TB!

On 29th of February, 2008 I hid a cache into Tallinn gorgeous Old-Town. In order to find the cache, some pre-work is requiered. Part of the information is available on the internet, part of it only at specific places in Old-Town. All the infopoints are placed in Old-Town, as is the chase itself. If You've found the cache, then please don't betray the location to outsiders. When You've finished your chase, put it back to the hiding spot and don't reveal the location of the cache in weblog. Thank You!

The coordinates of the chase are in DD:MM.MMM format.

59:AB.CDE

A - When was The Old Town added to the UNESCO World Heritage list? Take the last two numbers and subtract the smaller from the bigger.
B - In what house took place the "Kuradi pulm" (Devils wedding)? The last digit of the house number.
C - How many trees grow on the "Rohelisel turul" (Green market)? Divide the result by four.
D - How many tombstones are in the "Katariina käik" (Passage of Katariina)? Add up the digits.
E - There's an information board on the "Kolme õe" (Three sisters) house. Find the bottommost digits and add them up.

F - When was the "Tallinna Raeapteek" (The Town Council’s Pharmacy) first mentioned in the historical records? Add up the last two digits of the year.
G - In what year did Tallinn recieve the Lübeck law rights? Divide the last number of the year by two.
H - How many dragon-headed gargoyles does The Town Council building have?
I - Count the steps of the "Nõelasilma värava" (The-eye-of-the-neelde gate) and divide the result by two. Count all steps- from beggining to the end.
J - Count the steps from the beggining of the "Lühike Jalg" (Short Leg) to the "Pikk Jalg" (Long Leg). Divide the result by 13.

Have a nice walk in our Old Town and good luck with the chase! Two TB-s called "Old Thomas" and "Old Town Ghost" will start their journey from this cache.
