+Hawkins2.5 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Lol, I avoided this one and many others in Rome because they have hundreds of people including police around everywhere and I don't like feeling conspicuous by looking for caches in highly populated places. Looks like this probably wouldn't have been too bad to find though. Quote Link to comment

+Brian~! Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I did the Colloseum cache when I was in Rome earlier in the year. There's no way that it caused a security alert, as it's a small container about the size of a tictac box hidden in a stone wall. Yes it was a pain in the a** due to muggles, but frankly I think that a tourist leaving a lunchbox around is far more likely. Quote Link to comment

What I meant was, I saw the article on the news about a suspect object, and the first thing I did was look for any cache in the area. Quote Link to comment

You're quite right to - however hopefully the police have realized they should check the same thing. Something else I can say about Rome is that there are no central caches bigger than their equivalent of a 35mm canister. Although scarily most of them are in dry stone walls. Also, finding a cache whilst standing on the spanish steps with four thousand muggles is rather exhilarating. Quote Link to comment
+Hawkins2.5 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Lol, yes, avoided the Spanish Steps one too although we walked right past it. I just didn't have the courage for the actual search and retrieval! Quote Link to comment
