Current Goal

Hello!
I am Bootstrap’s Bill, the Ghost Pirate of the Flying Dutchman!
Current GOAL: I want to travel to Great Britain and visit some haunted castles, especially I would like to go to Scotland
(and bring some Whisky home to my crew)!
Because my crew would like to watch my journey, it would be great if you can take a picture of me in my new surroundings!
Thank you! And happy caching!

Unfortunately Bill seems to have lost his rather grand hat! He wasn't wearing it when I picked him up, it may still be in the cache box and I didn't notice. I will be taking him to visit a few castles in the next few weeks, wonder if we'll spot any ghosts!

  • BBC Scotland The BBC Scotland building, on the bank of the River Clyde.  Picked Bill up from a cache close to here.
  • Glasgow 21 and 22 August 2010 001 The BBC Scotland building, the Glasgow Science Centre and the Glasgow Tower with Bell's Bridge in the foreground.  Now to get Bill to a castle or two!
