+Team Cotati Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 (edited) I am due to visit Mayenne in France to see friends and wanted to find my first Cache abroad. Can any one tell me how to go about finding one. I have used the post code and Mayenne as a search but no results. Thanks Go here: http://www.getty.edu/research/conducting_r...cabularies/tgn/ Put the city/town name into the 'find name' field. In the returned results, find your destination and click on it. Select the 'inhabited place' name from the list and there you will find the coords which you can then use for a search start point. Repeat for the rest of your itinerary. Have a wonderful trip. And as a free bonus, you don't need to know how to speak French. lol P.S. Ain't this here internet thingy wonderful? Edited June 14, 2006 by Team Cotati Quote Link to comment

I have used the post code and Mayenne as a search but no results. Thanks Do you speak french? I found this , although my french is a bit rusty. http://playtofind.free.fr/caches/search.php The Search on "Rechercher par département" when I select Mayenne gave me no selections though.. Désolé ! Aucune réponse de trouvée Go figure ...when I searched Paris, I also found nothing. perhaps there is a problem with the search engine? I'll keep looking. Etombs Quote Link to comment
