Geocache Description:


A courier just delivered a handwritten message to your door. It reads:

My dear friend and intrepid traveler,

After much planning, I have prepared a new and exciting challenge for you. Called Around the World in 80 Caches!, it requires patience, ingenuity, and the ability to handle the unexpected. In this journey, you will be venturing into several countries, 80 in all, in search of concealed artifacts. The countries will lead you to continents, and the continents will lead you to the ultimate prize, hereafter known as "The World." Based on your experience and past adventures, I am confident you will succeed. As always, travel safe and be sure to document your findings. I look forward to hearing all about your grand expedition.

Your great admirer,

Jules Verne



IMPORTANT NOTE: Information in this cache will help you solve North America: ATW80 (GC1MGC6), a puzzle cache tied to the related countries.



Welcome to the Dominican Republic. A Tropical Paradise. It was discovered in 1492 by Christopher Columbus. The Dominican Republic is known as Cigar Country, because it is the World's largest producer of cigars. Have fun finding this cache. You might not get the feel of this Tropical Island because of the cars zooming by, but as you descend into the trees, you may feel just a bit of paradise.

Please after replacing cache, step back and look to make sure this cache is hidden as you found it or better.

Happy Travels!
