Lake Alexandra

 

Lake Alexandra is a postcard-perfect oasis in the middle of Southern Highlands suburbia. There is a playground for the kiddies, jogging path and exercise equipment for health enthusiasts, birds aplenty for bird watchers, picnic tables and BBQs for travellers on a quick break, a large shelter for ad hoc events on any occasion, and the whole park is only steps away from denser bush land where you can observe the local flora and fauna. As pretty a place as anybody could want, and it's all here in our own backyard.

To find this cache

The posted coordinates will take you to a plaque commemorating the life and accomplishments of early explorer Francis Luis Barrallier. Use this information to calculate the final location:

S 34° 26.(A)(B)(C) E 150° 26.(D)(E)(F)

A = The second number in the year of Barrallier's birth.

B = The third number in the year of Barrallier's birth.

C = The fourth number in the year of Barrallier's birth.

D = The second number (not a 9) in the year of the French Bicentennial.

E = The number of letters in Barrallier's military rank.

F = The first number in the year Barrallier set forth as Ambassador.

Checksum S=32, E=28
