Geocache Description:

You may know the history of Valentine ’s Day (St-Valentin en français), but what do you know about places named that way? Not much ? This cache will give you a chance to fill that void.


The posted coordinates are for a point about halfway between my Airports cache and this one.

To get the coordinates of this cache, you’ll have to answer a few questions …
