Current Goal

Hello, I am Francisco, the Batavian Turtle. I am on a journey to sail to all corners of the world. Please take me to a distant geocache far, far away.

About This Item

Francisco Bumbu van Pelsaert

Adventure is in my blood, distant shores are my goal! As you may have guessed, a long time ago, my predecessors were eye witnesses to the events of the Batavia at S 28° 30', E 113° 47'. Please be so kind as to send my folks back home a postcard from your home town. The address is on http://www.telagakura.net/kurakura/teamgangga.

I've found it in the cache named "Around Cseke" (GCY90N). Unfortunately the tour of the TB wasn't documented correctly so I have to log "grab it from current holder" instead of "retrieve it from a cache"...
