This cache is in Kensington Market, which is without a doubt my favorite neighborhood in the city of Toronto. It's unique, vibrant and fiercely independent. Many people come here to stroll the streets and to sample the culinary delights from around the world or to shop the independant merchants. In the summer months, Pedestrian Sundays are held, when the streets are closed to vehicle traffic and the market comes out to enjoy themselves with music and performances on the street. In the winter, the winter solstice is celebrated here with nighttime revelry. There is graffiti, public murals and guerilla street art tucked all over the market.
This cache is integrated into one of these 'guerilla' installations. You will need to solve the puzzle below to open the cache and sign the log. Inside, there is room for a few small items and there are two wooden nickels in it to kick it off. You will need to bring your own pen to sign the log. As you can imagine, the market can be quite busy at times so the difficulty rating considers the difficulty of the puzzle, its location, and possible/likely muggle activity. Please return the cache as found, and ensure that the puzzle is set for the next cacher!
