Geocache Description:

Searching for suitable hides around The King Power Stadium (home to the now Premiership football team, Leicester City) to place our first Football related trackable Nathan ‘Burgo’ drew a blank … the idea for a Travel Bug Hotel was born.

Although this is a cache with a footballing theme it isn’t exclusively for football fans and is on a nice stretch of The Grand Union Canal on which you can take a nice walk with friends and family, it does offer nice views of the King Power however and provides a stopover for other trackables especially those with similar sporting missions.

Team Burgo welcome all Home and Away fans alike, this is after all a geocache and transcends all sporting colours and all are welcome. When the players cross the line and take to the pitch there will be some banter but may the best team win, enjoy the game and safe journey home.

Filbert's Travel Bug Hotel is a small structure and sports black out blinds. It includes a log and is suitable for small swapables and Travel Bugs etc.

When hidden it included:

  • Bonobo the Monkey Travel Bug
  • Flag of Costa Rica #1 Travel Bug
  • It Started in Minnesota! Cache Movers Travel Bug
  • Stretchy man
  • Troll Keyring
  • Spinning Top
  • Colouring Pencils

Due to the busy nature of this stretch of the Canal on a matchday extreme stealth is required.

A list of other football related caches can be found at http://www.geocaching.com/bookmarks/view.aspx?guid=905d74c6-a630-4869-ba1e-adb33473ab72 (not all will hold trackables though)

Please consider others when taking trackables and unless you are dropping some off please only take one :)

Congratulations to The_Liveleys for first to find

Happy Geocaching

Team Burgo
