Not been feeling very well but that's not going to stop me blogging so here goes... an interesting one this time I hope for you all with some pictures from my travel bug pages from the www.geocaching.com website ... Geocaching is like a treasure hunt but for all ages, finding hidden boxes all around the world all different sizes... but this post is not just about them its about the one thing mostly that us 'Cachers' put in them other then the 'Swag' we leave for others... this one is to move from cache or geocache to another geocache and so on... It's the TRAVEL BUG! This is what the company Groundspeak who started it off in the USA said or rather having just googled it in a search engine we all know and love hehe hmm... here goes...:
Simply put, a Groundspeak Travel Bug is a trackable tag that you attach to an item. This allows you to track your item on Geocaching.com. The item becomes a hitchhiker that is carried from cache to cache (or person to person) in the real world and you can follow its progress online.
How do I log a travel bug?
If the goal is to move the Travel Bug to the west coast, don't put the Travel Bug in a cache farther east.
- Visit the Cache Listing. Visit the cache listing for the cache in which you placed the Travel Bug. ...
- Visit the "log a cache" Page. ...
- Select the Travel Bug to drop off.
- and put it in a cache! tadar! hehe... oh (cant seem to get rid of the no 4 lol! What is the meaning of travel bug?travel bug (idiom)- strong desire to travel. to be bitten by the travel bug (idiom)- kind of a cute way to say when someone begins to want to travel. After the "bug" bites you, you will really want to travel. to wander- to go from one place to another without any definite plans.

Rae loves ladybirds

Travelled over 10086.9 miles!!
Hello my name is Rae. My favourite insect is the Ladybird. Because ever since I was a child, Ladybirds have always seemed to fascinate me or landed on me which I have forever thought to be lucky. Like most sayings! I find them to be my totem animal along with the Blackbird.
First if you wish to try and have a go at logging a travel bug try out with the one thats always on me, I ask people to discover, grab and place me everywhere to clock up miles and then I go and grab it back... so all you need to do is follow this:
Go to www.geocaching.com
If you do not have an account you can easily set one up for free you don't have to geocache all the time or just find one or two... see where your craze takes you hehe!
Press Play at the top and go down to trackables
In the search bit type in WBX9FJ (my trackable) and click log at the right hand side and enter your message say hello to me or something and say where your from and that you found my from my blog!
Press log trackable and poof you've done it! Your first if not many trackables! :D
Now for some pictures from the tb page...
