Current Goal

This TB was released in honour of nephew Thom,
born on the 30th of June 2005, who will hopefully love travelling as much as we do when he grows up. This TB's first mission is to visit all continents in 5 years' time. Photos accompanying its travels will be greatly appreciated as we want to show Thom all kinds of exciting places in the world to go to when he grows up. A new mission will be picked on Thom's birthday in 2010, when this TB will hopefully have reached Europe, the continent where Thom was born.
We are starting this TB off in Canada, the country we have come to love and would like our nephew to visit first on his World Wide Tour somewhen.

Greetings from Far North Queensland. Picked up this TB while on a maintenance run to our cache - will move him around locally to see some of the sights.

From Brisbane we went north to Cairns to dive at the Great Barrier Reef. We took TB Tom with us, where he successfully completed his SCUBA course. Attached find two photos of TB Tom at the reef. Photo_01 shows Tom on the edge of a coral reef and Photo_02 shows Tom and me at a depth of approximately 25m.

Lovely TB. Decided not to take it because it needs to move overseas, and it's already close to the airport. Bon voyage, cute little cat!
