Geocache Description:


This cache is part of the official “Discover Mission Viejo GeoTour GT4D8” which will lead visitors to discover trails, parks, and other prominent locations throughout Mission Viejo.  Those who complete the tour will be eligible to receive a GeoCoin for their achievement by completing the GeoTour passport and finding code words.  Passports and instructions can be found here: Geocaching | City of Mission Viejo

 

This is a 2 stage puzzle.  Opening the cache is stage 1 and will give you access to the Travel Bug Hotel.

Stage 1: answer these 3 questions:

* How many painted Bears are in the courtyard of the Potocki Center?

* Find the little free library. How many letters are in the artists first name?

* How many hand painted chairs are in the courtyard of the Potocki Center?

These answers will give you access to the 1st lock and the travel bug hotel!

Stage 2: Now, you must solve the block puzzle to open the second lock to find & sign the log book.  

Please be careful with the cache,  and replace exactly as found.  

The Geo Hubby and I have been excited about creating this Gadget Cache since we visited Mingo and saw one very similar in Colby, Kansas.  GC8Q4TR - Hannah's Butterfly House
