Description
My grandfather once told me the story about the love-castle Glücksburg.
The comtess of Sonderburg-Rantzau-Mountbatten was up to be married-away. For advertising purposes, a portrait-painter had to paint small pictures which should be sent to the royal houses in whole Europe. But the young lady already had fallen in love with the black-smith. Because of that she showed horror-grimaces to the painter and so no prince adored her "selfies".
She grew elder and stayed single, because it wasn't allowed to marry out of line. The love to the smith outlasted the decades and they met secretly at changing places. For that reason her lover forged a lock on which he scratched the next meeting-points onto.
The legend is that two trees grew out of their loyalty, of different kind but close entwined.
What to do? Find the lock at the starting-coords. It points to the final.
N.B. The smily of the story is in german only. There a "Schloss" is the same word for "lock" and "castle". So a "love-lock" is equal to a "love-castle". Too, the city's name "Glücks-Burg" is the phrase for "Castle of luck".

Um 11:46 Uhr gemeinsam mit Golgafinch gefunden. Der Inhalt der Dose ist nass und dreckig. Ein Logpasswort war nicht (mehr?) zu erkennen, wohl aber, dass sich div. irregeführte GC-Logger eingetragen hatten, die den Cache für GC3EP55 hielten.
Bitte kümmern!

found the geocache
Das "Liebesschloss" hatte ich vor einigen Monaten gefunden, damals war aber keine Zeit, das Final zu suchen. Das stand heute auf dem Plan.
Die "Umschlungenen" konnten dann auch gut gefunden werden, die Dose zunächst nicht. Das dauerte dann ein paar Minuten, bis ich die wirklich nicht schwer versteckte Dose dann doch noch findne konnte.
Grüße aus Nordfriesland an den bekannten CO

Der Cache wäre fast an der Technik gescheitert bzw deren Bedienung - hoffe, bis zum nächsten Mal nicht wieder vergessen.
Danke für's Legen & Pflegen!
