Geocache Description:

This is the sixth of 8 caches in this series

We have put together a series of seven complete caches, where each of the caches represents a colour. Each of the seven caches will also contain a bonus word which will be used to solve the eighth and last puzzle to get to the final cache.

Colour is an integral part of our lives! The clothes we wear, the colour of our houses and cars. It is even represented in the elements of nature that surround us. How happy are we when we peek out the curtains and find a beautiful blue sky shining back at us, but how about if its grey and overcast?? It automatically puts a damper on our mood causing us to act in a different way.

A shiny red sports car oozes speed and excitement or danger and irresponsibility, depending on how we as individuals view the colour. Had it been a white sports car, it would surely be viewed in a different light.

Just as a bright yellow sunflower is indicative of Spring, so too are the beautiful brown colours of the Autumn leaves falling to the ground.

We have placed the various caches near places where you can enjoy the influence of colour. You will not have to participate in the various activities, but you will be able to see them and appreciate the colour factor. Enjoy!

Here's hoping you enjoy these caches as much as we did putting them together. Please try to place an item of the colour represented in the name of the cache back into the cache.

INDIGO

It helps build a positive outlook and bring inner strength. A sense of royalty and sophistication. It allows for a clearer path for the conscious to the spiritual self. It could increase telepathic ability.

This cache is located just outside the MAROPENG center. There is a R10 entrance fee for parking which you will need to pay to get to the cache, but you do not need to visit the center if you do not want to. If you wish to the costs are R65 per adult and R35 per child and there is a lot to be seen, including an underground boat ride and many hands on exhibits. You can easily spend an hour or two inside the exhibition center and afterwards you can visit their lovely restaurant with a stunning view of the Magaliesberg, for a bite to eat before going home.

We suggest you tell the guards if asked that you are going to take a photo of the place from a different angle. Please be aware that there MAY be snakes around, even though we didn't encounter any of them.

Have fun
