You should probably go in search of other caches around Leiden if you don’t like getting your shoes dirty, especially if you’re a nightclub performer who starts screaming whenever you so much as see a fruit fly. At least there aren’t any snakes around here. At least we don’t think there’s any snakes...
So you may need to be as courageous as the famous globetrotting archaeologist Indiana Jones if you want to successfully track down this cache. It’s located near a rampaging river filled with deadly local flora and fauna. Are you brave enough to tangle with these terrors before you enter a temple filled with man-eating insects?
Okay, we’ll level with you. There’s no cliffs around here or temples either. However, the cache is located near a canal populated by ducks, geese, cats, and dogs who, thankfully, have yet to tear anyone’s hearts out of their chests during a bizarre and rather racist occult ceremony.
Don’t say we didn’t warn you! Getting to the cache will also require a further act of bravery reminiscent of the famous scene in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. You may know the one. It’s the bit where Willie Scott has to reach into a mechanism filled with insects to pull a lever that will prevent Indiana and his friend Short Round from getting squished in a booby trap.
Have you got the guts to grab the cache and put your name in the log book? Are you willing to risk maybe getting bit on the butt by an angry goose and maybe get various types of poop on your shoes? Did we mention the spiders? Okay, maybe we should have mentioned the spiders. Should we have themed this cache after Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade or one of the Marvel movies instead, especially since Temple of Doom has a lot of issues that might make modern moviegoers cringe?
Eh, that’s up to you to figure out. There’s no time for love, Dr. Jones! Just don’t get killed chasing after your fortune and glory! Unfortunately, if you do find the cache, you won’t be able to celebrate with any chilled monkey brains. No cafes in Leiden serve them. However, we do recommend getting some ice cream from Ijs Van Matthijs on the Haarlemmerstraat.
Congrats to berveling for FTF, to fmills for STF, and to AenA78 for TTF.
