Geocache Description:

A cache placed in the middle of one of the busiest places in all of Okinawa.  Right in the middle of Shintoshin.

Sometimes, caches at busy muggle areas, on busy streets, in front of shops etc, annoy me.   Waiting for muggles to go away,  and feeling very uncomfortable and looking out of place are at times unpleasent feelings. So this cache is revenge for all those who have made me feel uncomfortable, and annoyed.  Because at this cache, there will be muggles,  you will feel out of place and you will look very suspicious making the pull.  But if your skillful at stealth and enjoy the cache then by all means,  go and get it.

The cache is located on, or should I say over, the main street of Shintoshin, near Shintoshin Post Office, Yamada Denki, Naha Museum and Toys r us. The cache is a small magnetic case and easy to see if you look in the right spot. Once you find it, it is a matter of good timing, and super stealth for you to climb up and get it.  Be careful not to get caught,  You must look, left, right and down for muggles overwise you may appear to be ready to commit suicide.  I would say, at night, very early in the morning, or in the middle of a hot sunny day is your best chance for minimal muggles. I put it there during the rain which is also a good time. There is no danger of falling but just in case I wouldn't recommend young ones to climb up for the grab.  Young ones held overhead by adults or standing on mum or dad's shoulders may be perfect if your both tall enough,

The rating is for the high muggle concentration and the awkwardness of reaching up there.  There is a 220 yen FTF prize,   Good luck!
BTW, the funny man, singing with flowers on his hat, frequents underneath this area, say hello,  he is actually a nice guy and he speaks good English.


Congrats to Hexman1999 for FTF and thanks for saving me the trouble to do a post typhoon check.
