Description    English  ·  Español

I present in this cache "THE RETURN OF ICARO WITH YOUR TABLE SURF", which is located at Queen's Pier (Port of Alicante).

On a pedestal floating in the water lies the figure of a man with big shoulders and small heads. It takes under his left arm resting on his hip and a windsurfing board. Icarus, son of Daedalus fled from Crete, where he was imprisoned by King Minos using the invention of wings held together by wax. Icarus always be related to the idea that air and will fly his body moving. The transposition of the Greek myth to today through the windsurfer is thus obvious. Building on and enjoy a nice walk along the "Explanada de España" and the Port of Alicante, where you will see a nice view.

To log this virtual cache to do:

1.- A photo with you in person or GPS and will put it in the LOG,

 2.- and find this board where you find the CC

A greeting FalauBabau and good luck to geocahers, I hope you enjoy it.

De visita por Alicante con Noe, y después de comer, nos damos un paseo por el puerto.
Están de obras una vez más y Alicate es un caos de tráfico.
Un día muy caluroso que nos hace sudar de lo lindo.
También disfrutamos de la vista de los yates y del castillo de Santa Barbara en lo alto.
🙂
Y claro, que menos que al pasar por aquí registrar este virtual.
😀
No es la primera vez que paso por esta escultura y se donde hay que mirar para la contraseña.

Gracias falaubabau por por  este virtual.
^-^

I visited the Cache "El Regreso de Icaro (Alicante - España)" together with Cache_Less at 21:06 o'clock.

The statue of Ikaros is gone... But we found the place where it should have been.
Since the cache is not clear what the password is, we had to give it several times until we managed to log...

Thank you falaubabau for this Cache!

Mein Schiff 3 brachte uns von Barcelona aus hierher, gestartet waren wir vor ein paar Tagen in Palma de Mallorca. Weiter geht es nach Lissabon, Cadiz und Malaga samt Fahrt durch die Straße von Gibraltar. Doch erst einmal haben wir einen Tag Zeit, Alicante zu entdecken.

Mit dem Hafen-Shuttle gelangten wir näher ans Zentrum und von dort ging es weiter mit dem Fußbus :)

Wir waren die Einzigen, die sich für den Ikarus interessierten - vorerst. Sobald wir jedoch anfingen, Fotos zu machen, waren wir plötzlich nicht mehr allein vor Ort. Geocaching führt einen wirklich an schöne Orte!

Ganz besonders war, dass sich viele kleine Fische um den Sockel des Ikarus' versammelt hatten, denn der war unter Wasser, aber die Sonne schien so schön auf seine Oberseite.

Glückauf aus dem Erzgebirge und vielen Dank!
¡Muchas Gracias!
