Vi tager på ferie mange steder, men hvor godt kender vi vores feriemål ?
Denne kryds og tværs fandt jeg i en gammel cache i Bangkok, som desværre er nedlagt, men i arbejdet med at finde løsningen på opgaven, fik jeg mange, nye informationer omkring Thailand, som enhver turist bør kigge lidt nærmere på.
Opgaven skal løses på engelsk – og måske får jeg udlagt en cache i Thailand, hvor løsningen også kan bruges. .

We travel to many places, but how well do we know our holiday destination? This cross was found in an old cache in Bangkok, which unfortunately has been closed, but in finding the solution to the task, I got a lot of new information about Thailand, which any tourist should know.
The assignment has to be solved in English - and maybe I will place a cache in Thailand where the solution can also be used.

Solve the crossword puzzle and then count the amount of letters in the solution to get the coordinates. Replace the letters in the formula with the amount counted.
N (A+D+R)° (T+U).JL (I-H) E (C+W)° (G+M).(F+V) (P+Z) (X+Y)
So if S=1 and H=2 and I=3 and R=4 and Y=5 and L=6 and Z = 7
N S (H+I+R).YLZ would come out N 1° 9.567
