This is a traditional cache at the

You will find the Stone of Friendship
inside the entrance of the exhibition hall
behind the escalator.
This is maybe 400ft south of the cache.
Don't go upstairs, stay on first floor.
I tried to get the COs of the Stone of Friendship,
it is at N 42° 03.660 W 088° 02.418

The Stone of Friendship
was carried in a historic way
from Schaumburg, Germany to Schaumburg, Illinois.
They put the heavy sandstone
on a horse-drawn carriage
to Rinteln, where in earlier times,
sandstones were put on a boat
and transported on the river Weser to Bremen.

Happy hunting.
