Geocache Description:


ITALY IN CALIFORNIA #1

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDS !!!

It is within a 5 minute walking distance and a good parking lot. You may find a better place to park but that is your choice.

This is my first cache and I am dedicating it to Italy – the homeland of my ancestors and my girlfriend’s favorite country in the world !!!

This is also the first of a series of mostly puzzle caches since I want people to learn more about Italy and I love puzzle caches. This cache has very simple googable answers and is only rated a 2 star since it takes some time to answer the questions and the terrain is a 2 1/2 star (see hints ).

The coords for the cache are N 37° 50.AB9 W 122° 18.DEF .

Answer the questions and you will have your coords. Happy Caching !!!

The oldest University in Europe is located in Italy. The name of the city it is located in has B letters in it.
