Description   

The SightSeeingVirtualCaches Series

SightSeeingVirtualCaches are virtual caches meant to show you places of interest. The caches in this series are OC-Only and can only be logged with a password, which you will have to find at the cache location. You are very welcome to attach a photo as well, but it is not a requirement. You will find further caches from the SightSeeingVirtuals series.

This site is one of the musthaves when you stay in Rio de Janeiro.
At the listed coordinates you find two plates under two heads. We look for the right one.
To log this cache look for the first word and the first number you find on this plate.
Example: "This statute is of 38 meters hight" -> Password to log: "THIS38" [capital letters]
Have fun and don't hesitate to post a picture.

Spend the early morning at the Christ redeemer statue. Already quite crowded, but magnificent view. Also interesting to learn so much about the geology here. Thanks for the cache.

Die Risikogruppe geht zum Ape-Cache nach Brasilien. Außer dem Intervales-Park haben wir auch Rio und Sao Paulo besucht. Der Christo Redentor auf dem Corcovado ist natürlich ein Must Have beim Riobesuch.

Am Vorabend sehe ich, dass es hier einen virtuellen Cache gibt und dass noch ein FTF zu holen ist. Also habe ich schnell ein Foto geschossen und nun freue ich mich, dass ich in Brasilien, 10.000 km von der Homezone entfernt einen FTF verbuchen kann.

Danke für den Cache und viele Grüße aus Thüringen in Germany
