This is an
international multicache and it has logging requirements. Nobody
forces you to log this cache, but if You want to do so, read the
listing carefully and proceed as required. If you receive the
coordinates from someone else but me, it is the wrong way.
All logs not complying with this cache's rules, will not be
accepted.
This cache is just one cache
of a set of 24 caches named IMC No. 2 … (IMC = International
Multi-Cache). These caches are hidden in 12 Countries
worldwide:
AU = Australia CA = Canada, DK = Denmark, FR = France, DE =
Deutschland, JP = Japan, LU = Luxemburg, MX = Mexico, NL =
Netherlands, PT = Portugal, ZA = South Africa, ES = Spain,
.
In each country there is a "primary cache" and a "secondary
cache".
The 16 primary caches are named "IMC No. 2 P-x - yyy" and the 16
secondary caches "IMC No. 2 S-x - zzz" where x is the country code
given above and yyy and zzz can be any additional name.
The primary caches are almost like traditional caches. The only
difference is, that they contain beside the "normal" content
(stash-note, logbook, pencil, give-aways) a "lists of hints" for
the secondary caches.
To be able to search and find a secondary cache you need all hints
from all 12 primary caches!
As the primary caches are scattered all over the world it will
either require a lot of traveling or - and that is the intention of
the IMC No. 2 - international cooperation:
If you want to find this
secondary cache, you should:
1. Find a primary IMC No. 2 cache.
2. Contact finders of other primary IMC No. 2 caches and exchange
the hints.
3. Puzzle the hints together and …
4. … go and seek the secondary cache.
The IMC No. 2 team wish
you good luck!

enhanced. ;-)
Singing
WindMills
“Portuguese
windmills in the southwest coast of the country have a
particularity which is unique in the worlds' windmills: They are
equipped with earthenware vessels at the surrounding tow of their
wind-wheel. When the wheel is standing still, the visitor doesn't
get any idea of the purpose of those dozens of vessels in different
sizes, obviously being nothing but ballast decreasing the
performance of the mill.
When a windmill begins to move, only the wind's
noise and the creaking of the wooden mechanics normally can be
heard. Not so the
very special Portuguese windmills.
The visitor is impressed by a loud chord of flutelike sounds, which
varies according to different wind-speeds and weather conditions.
