Geocache Description:

Read the description carefully.

Here is a small puzzle to help you learn some of the mian streets in Pattaya.It's also my tribute to Lou Reed,who wrote the song "Walk on the Wild Side" from the 1972 album "Transformer".The song reached #16 on the charts.Lou passed away Oct 27 2013.If any place could fit the title of this song...it would be Pattaya.


Many people who come to Pattaya come by bus.This will get you started.Go to WP1(Q1).Look for the dolphins along the center of the road and count the ones on top,and include the roundabout.You can walk or take a slow motorbike taxi.Let this number be ABC.

Go to WP 2(Q2) and count the white letters at the top of the entrance.This will be DE.The walk along the beach is great,however I recommend a blue baht truck for transport,if you don't like walking.It's over a mile.Only 10 baht for the ride.

Go to WP 3(Q3).You will see a large white sporting item.How many of these do you see on the bottom of the glass entrance to the store.Let this be FG.Again you might want to use the local transportation.

Final:N 12 5(A+B+D).B(E-B)F    E 100 5D.GG(Dx2)

You can walk to the final.

 

After you log the find,you can go back to WP 2 and maybe take your own "Walk on the Wild Side".Or you could just watch the people.Either way,it will be interesting.
