The posted coords will not take you
to the cache. Go to the parking coords and start your
journey. Here are the coords to the final:

This cache will take you on a walk through
one of our most historic areas in Central Brevard County, Cocoa
Village. Cocoa Village is known for its specialty shops, Playhouse
and restaurants. While on this journey take your time and enjoy all
the sights you can see. There really is a lot of history in this
area. This cache should take you on about a one mile walk through
the village. We walked it and it took us about 1/2 an hour to
complete. Give yourself a little extra time if you want to enjoy
the walk. There are white lights in the trees, so we would
recommend doing this at night.
Now for your caching pleasure here is what
you will need to do. We will take you to several historical sites
throughout the village. Each location you will need to find some
information to obtain the final coords for your smiley.
1. Starting at your parking coords
go to:

could be high in muggles. You are looking for a sign with a phone
number on it for rental of the Gazebo. What is the 8th number of
that phone number? This number = E.

is just amazing. Take time to look at the entire thing.
Once you are done admiring it find how many dolphins are
pictured. Take this number and multiply by 2. Your
answer = C.
5. Continuing South head
to:

6. Turn around and head back North
on Brevard Ave. It is your choice how to arrive

Now you should have the coords to find the
final which is a plastic peanut butter jar camoed. You will
pass by Taylor Park or Riverfront Park on your way to the
final. Take time to check out this park, it is a wonderful
park with a lot of interesting things in it. We hope you
enjoy your journey through Cocoa Village. Please use stealth
when retrieving the final as there are almost always muggles in
this area.
