Geocache Description:

NOTE: THERE IS NOW AN OFFSET FOR THIS CACHE. I WILL TRY TO REWORK THE PUZZLE IN THE FUTURE, BUT FOR NOW, PLEASE APPLY: N +.019, W: +.034

CACHE IS NOT AT LISTED COORDINATES. SOLVE THE PUZZLE BELOW TO GET THE LOCATION.


NOTE: There is now a number written in the lid in the format LLMB: x with x being the number you need. A bonus cache for this series will be published soon, so please start collecting and saving them if you are interested. I will also respond to email requests for the number if you lose it or forget to write it down as long as you have logged the cache.

This is the seventh in my Lisa Loves Musicals caches. Each one holds a special place in my heart. They will all be movies or plays somebody in my family has performed in or performed a number from. I actually learned quite a bit about this one myself from researching it! It turns out the stage play is QUITE different from the movie - I was surprised my how much they changed the plot! I was only familiar with the movie, and now I would like to see it on the stage! When I showed it to my daughter, she loved the song
So Lovely to be a Woman, just like I thought she would, and it became one of her performance pieces when she was of a similar age.

So the questions are based mostly on the movie, but there is at least one that has to do with the play. They shouldn't be too hard. You will breeze right through it if you are familiar with it or a little work on Google should yield you the rest.

When you get around to finding the cache, you will find a distinctive rectangular brown container. Not sure how durable it will be, but couldn't resist trying. BYOP. Please keep it well covered as mini muggles might come through here from time to time. Also, this is an area best visited in daylight hours.
