Guest rediguana Posted September 28, 2001 Share Posted September 28, 2001 Travel Bugs are here http://www.geocaching.com/track/ I wouldn't mind getting a couple, but the cheapest way is to get a few. Would anyone else be interested in getting some to start travellers? Not cheap, but they appear well integrated into the site which is a good thing. Let me know. Cheers Gav Quote Link to comment
Guest embi Posted September 28, 2001 Share Posted September 28, 2001 I'd be interested.....I'm in Australia though ------------------ It's out there...let's go get it! Quote Link to comment
Guest HunterGatherer Posted September 28, 2001 Share Posted September 28, 2001 Great idea... i actually started compiling things for a travel bug last week... have chosen my bug and am waiting for a dog-tag to be delivered (with an email address on it). once that's here, i'll put a collar on my bug and get him in a cache. had planned to have his own site etc... but i'll check out the travel bug site and look for suggestions. seems everytime i think i've got a good idea someone's already done it and better look for Mr Moose or one of his mates soon.

Guest peejay Posted September 28, 2001 Share Posted September 28, 2001 Sounds interesting. Lets get a few, should be good advancing the interest in Geocaching. Even if we only start off a couple, North Island and South Island. I'll put up $10 worth. Quote Link to comment

Guest dave351 Posted November 6, 2001 Share Posted November 6, 2001 Hey guys.. I just sent a BUNCH of travel bugs to Ideology in OZ about a week ago . They might not get there for another week or so, but maybe you can pry some away from them if you have some reason to travel to OZ, or get some out of their caches.

We don't want to be cache terrorists! LOL I've emailed geocaching.com again today to try and sort something out with them so we can arrange product getting to NZ, through an intermediary if necessary. Cheers Gav Quote Link to comment
