Geocache Description:


The streets in this neighborhood are named for Italian villages.  You will drive through this neighborhood to gather number clues to determine the coordinates of the final cache.  There are 6 stages leading to the final.  Getting all of the number clues will only take you a few minutes. At the final coords, you will have to get out of your car and make a short walk to the final container. 

While you should be able to see all number clues from your car, please pull over to the right curb to do so.  Do not impede traffic or cause a dangerous situation by slowing down or stopping in the middle of the street.  Remember that you are in an active neighborhood.  Do not be so focused on your GPS or the number clues that you do not see cars, bikes, and kids. 

All of the waypoints are listed on the cache page.  You may gather the number clues in any order.  I suggest going in alphabetical order so you can drive on a somewhat circular route.  You are also more likely to put the numbers in the right places if you go in order.
