In this installment of our Creative caches<\/em> series<\/a>, we\u2019re exploring the cozy world of Travel Bug\u00ae hotels. Commonly called TB hotels, these caches are larger sized creations with plenty of space for a trackable or Travel Bug\u00ae to take a quick rest before another geocacher picks it up to continue its journey.
