This cache is placed in a park near DSTY (Deutsche Schule Tokyo
Yokohama = German School Toyko Yokohama)
The strong and important German - Japanese friend- and business relationship was especially demonstrated 1904 with the foundation of a German School in Yokohama. May 1905 the school was opened for the first classes.
Since 1991 the school is at it´s current place. As the school
itself is private property and often crowded with many many smaller
muggles, I rather hid the cache in the park nearby. If you want to
have a quick look while visiting the cache, no problem. The school
place is always open and nobody will complain for people having an
interested look outside the buildings.
This is a 5 stage multicache leading you counter clockwise through the park.
NOTE: The park is known for snakes. If they are dangerous snakes... I don´t know. Therefore it is not required to leave the path except for the final cache. Be carefull when leaving the path. I assume no responsibility for snake or any other animal bites like moscitos!
Start at the given coordinates and... Look at the large inscription
near the coordinates.
Count the letters on row one = A
Count the letters on row two = B
STAGE 2:
Visit N 35 32.339 E 139 34.877
There is a strange metal object. Near the coordinates and the object is a light red plate with a year XXXX. Write down the year = D
STAGE 3:
Visit N 35 32.395 E 139 35.003
Coordinates might be a bit off as I had very bad reception. But the point is easy to find. There is a sign with two maps. What is the name of the smaller one? = E
Blue = 5
Green = 3
Street = 2
Suburb = 2,5
STAGE 4:
Visit N 35 32.404 E 139 34.796
look down and you´ll see a relatively long but small bridge. It has
turns.
Count the numbers of turns = F
STAGE 5: Final stage.
Calculate... :-D (I added one difficulty star for the calculation)
N 35 (B*E-7).(A*10*E)-(E*E+44)-70
E 139 (44-10).(D/E)+(44*F*F)-(B-1)-230
Cache is a regular box.
As it was very difficult to find a good hiding place in this often visited and very clean park, make sure you cover the cache well and do not leave it a bit exposed to others for an easier find.
Have fun!!
