Geocache Description:

Here's a fun puzzle cache hidden in Henricus Park. The listed co-ords are the parking area - solve the puzzle to find the actual location. Park hours change with the seasons, so read and HEED them - this park will lock you in if you are not in sight at closing time! Original cache holds lots of goodies for the kids, and a sentry guarding it all.

The first of a brand new year left me with an empty cache container from a prior multi, and the task of filling out my calender for 2011. Hmm... i might as well combine the two and come up with a puzzle, right? To find the actual location of this cache, fill in the blanks!

N 37 A . B C W 77 D. [zero] E

Now for the clues: The following numbers are taken from a list of international holidays for 2011. Don't worry about the month, just use the date.

A = Argentina's Good Friday

B = Mexico's Revolution Day

C= China's Tomb-Sweeping Day (!)

D = Japan's Emperor's Birthday

E = South Korea's First Day of their Harvest
Moon Festival

Cache is an ammo can in Henricus Park, not far off a trail. Enjoy, and if you find out when Beaver's Day is, let me know!!
