Geocache Description:


19/4/22 update: GZ moved 20m south to next pole next house

This is the 2nd somewhere in the world (in the long list of somewhere series), but this time the clues are emojis and the way to solution is a little different.

Posted coordinates are at the central train station of Tel Aviv. Cache is naturally elsewhere, within 2 miles.

The puzzle:

Stage 1:

Solve the emoji clues. Coordinates can be anywhere in the world, but there is something common to all places.

A: south A? , east ?A?

B & C: north BC, east ???

D & E: south ED, west ???

F & G: north FG, west ??? (capital)

H: south ??, east ??H

I: north I?, west ???

J: south J?, west ??? (capital)

 

Stage 2:

Put the values you got from the world places here, to discover yet another place somewhere in the world

X = north AB C(D-E).5 , east (F+G)H (I-1)J.5

Stage 3:

final location = X #4 

Pass through geocheck if you want to make sure you got it right (some meters off target are allowed). Remember, geocheck solution can't be more than 2 miles from posted coordinates.
