Geocache Description:

This cache has been replaced with a micro after pruning by the city claimed my previous container.

This is the seventh in a series of caches located in Meadowvale on streets named after cities around the world. This cache is hidden on Tripoli. Tripoli is the capital and largest city in Libya. It is also known as Western Tripoli to distinguish it from Tripoli (Lebanon). It is affectionately called The Mermaid of the Mediterranean, describing it’s tourquoise waters and its whitewashed buildings. Tripoli is a Greek name that means "Three Cities", introduced in Western European languages through Italian Tripoli. As of 2011, the Tripoli metropolitan area (district area) had a population of 1.8 million. The city is located in the northwest part of the country on the edge of the desert, on a point of rocky land projecting into the Mediterranean and forming a bay. The city includes the Port of Tripoli and the country's largest commercial and manufacturing centre. It is also the site of the University of Tripoli. The vast Bab al-Azizia barracks, which includes the former family compound of Muammar Gaddafi, is also located in the city; Gaddafi largely ruled the country from his residence in this barracks. FTF prize is a twoonie. As well as the FTF, the cache originally contains a Fred Flintstone, Barney Rubble and Dino figurine. I know of one cacher who'll be hoping to get Fred. Congratulations to Flintstone, who picked up his twoonie and the Fred Flintstone figurine.
