Geocache Description:

A crowded area in the central parts of Upplands Väsby. Be careful when you search and find. The cache is a film canister.

Once a year in the beginning of may this particular place in the old central parts of U-V turns to be the most beautiful and wonderful one. It's nothing special about it the remaining 358 days a year, but now *aaah*. If you want to see it yourself, you must hurry up. Go there, take a picture of the nice colors and tell me what you think.

The cache is one in a serie of everyday spots you just pass by normally. If you log the cache in an other time of the year (than described) the challenge and experience would only be to log the cache discreet. Of course the place has a history too this was the old centre of Väsby since long lost times.

From the beginning the small cache contained a logbook (the most extensive you have probably seen in such a small cache :-) ) and a even smaller pen. Two magnets I manage to put in as well.

*** Latest part (counting stones) of this desription is new from sep 2009 as the benches that you earlier were supposeed to count has been removed. ***

For every cache in this serie of beautiful planted trees you will get a clue for a final cache later on. For this first cache you have to find out the name of the small market (torg in swedish) close to the cache. It's on your left if you stand in front of the cache and your nose pointing to it. There is a sign on the wall, count the numbers of letters in the name, on the sign. Add the number of big stones in the quarter circle close by subtract this with 12. The number you get will be your "AA".

Happy hunting!

Take notice of which market I have in mind. The market where the benches are is the correct one. It's at the left acoording to the cafe. I hope you get it rigth. Nedstat Basic - Gratisräknaren hemsida statistik Kostnadsfria räknaren för privata webbplatser
