Current Goal


As a child summer holidays in the 90’s were always spent in Cornwall.  In the many fun filled years of visiting the county, we, as a family visited many different towns, cities and places. My favourite place to visit was St. Michael’s Mount (I loved to find the giant’s heart on the way to the top!).

For a few years of holidaying we stayed at the ‘Dove Meadows’ caravan site in Marazion, from which we could see St. Michael’s Mount.  Once, whilst at this caravan site I got a photo key ring (attached to this travel bug) which I recently found amongst some old things.

This travel bug’s ultimate mission is to travel back to Cornwall and revisit the caravan site and a number of places listed below having its photograph taken at each.  Once these are all crossed off it is to return to the cache it originally set out from so I can retrieve it and put it together with a collection of photos from it’s travels.

THE CACHE THIS TB SET OUT FROM IS '
