On the way to Malaga we stopped for this cache, first went to the info centre and then out for the flamingo’s! Unfortunately they are far away in the laguna but with the use of binoculars we hat a good view of them. The first and second WP’s were no problem, arriving at WP3 we could not find any information about the number of flamingo’s Angry, but after reading the log from Omortson we could continue. At the final coördinates after a short search the box was found.

Thanks for showing us the flamigo’s

In this second attempt, finally, I have been able to find it. Hardly it is discriminable of the rest of sweepings that exists in those ruins. By the way, the Geocoin doesn't exist.

No trade. Signed Log.

Really, really, really it needs maintenance. Wink

Entretenido cache que en su recorrido nos muestra unas buenas vistas de la laguna y de los flamencos.
Merece la pena la visita al lugar.
Unas bonitas carreteras para recorrer en bici o motocicleta.
Lo he encontrado gracias a la pista del anterior geocacher que especifica el numero de flamencos en su log. (20000 parejas=40000 animales)
Como pista decir que no hay que adentrarse practicamente nada (medio metro) en las ruinas, asi que NO es peligroso.

Out: ¿caramelos?
In: Tazo

Un saludo.
