  • I have two travellers that meet the extremes ….

    A. Chateau Minns travel bug {TB3MDZ6} … this bug came to a screeching halt about four years ago … Mileage 0 .. that’s right ZERO miles …

    B. the Innkeeper’s Coin {TB4VPXZ} …. it has travelled apprx 28,500 miles in it’s 2yrs9mons journey … it has been west to Calgary, Alberta, east to Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, north of the Arctic Circle in Norway, south to the equator in the Canary Islands and all the way down the planet to Cape Town, South Africa …

    AND …I can’t wait to see how my latest makes out in the M3 Mega Race later next month …

  • First of, we LOVE trackables. We own 36 (or owned I guess, as many got lost or stolen). Only two are still with us: trackable patch on our hiking backpacks. All the rest were sent into the wild, including all our coins. We are no collectioneurs, and trackables to us are meant to travel.

    The one that made the most km is still very active. TB2A2ZF (65,800+km). We launched it in a TB hotel on PEI in October 2008. Next thing we know it was roaming around in Europe, then went to Indonesia! It went back to Europe then made it’s way to the USA where it is still haning out to this day!

    My F-15, TB3G87Z also passed the 60,000km mark and like most of my TB is now somewhere in Germany. Not because someone decided to grab all my TBs for Germany, but for some reason, most have either visited or are still somewhere in that country! Go figure.

    My favorite one TB-Shadow of a Dodo Bird, TB2A30V, had gone missing for quite sometime then all of sudden thankfully reappeared. This little bugger did North America, Europe, Indonesia and Africa. Of course today it is in Germany πŸ™‚

    Our Irishtown geocoin seems to be doing quite well too, and is now in Australia.

    Although I have been out from geocaching for eons as it seems, I always kept an eye on my trackables to see where on the planet they have been, and mostly to look at the pictures of their adventures around the world.

    Fun to travel vicariously via those bugs (yes Rev, I googled that word beforehand)

  • “Seen today on the web , thanks for the show”
    This is the translation for yesterday’s post for TB2BQ0A, one of our first geocoin that has been missing since apptox 2009. 2nd post for an “internet discovery”.
    What the heck is an internet discovery? Lol
