Geocache Description:


Travelling up June Springs road, I was intrigued by the caches named after Italian cities. We have loved visiting Italy so I added a couple more caches.  Each container is a different color of  il Tricolore, the flag of Italy.  The color of the container is reflected in the title.  Godetevi trovare la cache!
