This one could be a real challenge. Small Altoids tin. Log only. Bring your own pen. Huge concentration of muggles. Please use lots of stealth or visit during muggle free hours.

Fountains are cool. This cache series is not meant to be challenging or difficult. This series is designed to take you to different locations around town that have fun and interesting fountains. Take a few minutes to locate the cache but don't hurry away to the next cache. Take just a moment to enjoy the fountain. Feel free to take some pictures of the fountain with you or your family and post the pictures in the logs.

Good one. Need that better hint that BT & SM used ...too much ambiguity w/ the GPSr @ GZ.

TFTH!

We blatantly tipped over a few to get a thorough check, but many of them had hoards of students standing next to them...shouldn't they be studying or something? Maybe there is a better way to hide this one.

Co FTF with Smoochersmom, A cup of Chai, a Cool fountain, and a cache, light muggle crowd tonight, and it was all good!
Glad this one came back quickly, and really glad to have it off the list! The most challenging fountain find yet.
Keep em coming.

Thanks for the fun!

*Co-FTF* with Bajatym! Tuesday evening turned out to be a great time to search, very few muggles and I never saw one Security Officer. Probably a quicker find than normal since we came armed with a great hint Wink

A very cool fountain and a relaxing place to sit and enjoy the yummy cups of tea we picked up. This is high praise coming from an avid coffee drinker!

THX 4 the fountain fun!!

This one is definitely gone already, went tonight with Pacholik and we gave it a major search after a long wait for muggles to clear out, and armed with a huge hint from the owner.
It would be a challenge for sure even knowing where it was, hope a redo will appear for this one, it is a Cool fountain.

Thanks for all these hides!

Wow... are there a LOT of people going in and out od that Tea/Coffee place... We spent near an hour there trying to grab a time slot where people were not where we wanted to be. After a while all the other shops closed but this one.
Eventually the rent-a-cop arrived and pulled a a seat to stay a while. That was our key to leave... We'll gave to try again some day.... Surely is a Level 3 hide.
