They say “The grass is always greener on the other side”
In this case the cache is up a flight of stairs on the other side of the road just south of the Seawall. It’s a quick five-minute pit-stop on your way to or from Granville Island. There’s room for tiny swag and a pencil is provided. This little cache is hidden in plain sight… happy caching!
