Current Goal

Share Good Luck with lots of geocachers and our hope for few "Did Not Find" attempts in your caching outings.

Sep 2011 - This one was lost very early in its travels.  We started a proxy in its place. Hopefully this one will travel farther this time!

About This Item

Hamburger Bean

We found this "Sea-bean" in a cache and decided to see just how much farther it could travel on land! This note was with it when we retrieved it from a cache: "This Sea-bean came from vines that grow in the Amazon fain forests. It fell from it's parent plant into the Amazon River, then it drifted through inlets to reach the ocean. It traveled with ocean currents until it washed up on my Cayman beach, thousands of miles from it's origin. Sea-beans are quite hard and buoyant, which helps them survive their long-distance voyage. They are said to be Good Luck for whoever finds them and for the person you give it to. Please keep this Sea-Bean moving along and passing on the luck to everyone it touches. For more Info Lookup: Seabean.com." (From Geocacher "Nirvanadiver" 2009) This particular Sea-bean (or drift seed, main Wikipedia article) is either a brown hamburger bean (mucuna sloanei) or a red hamburger bean (mucuna urens). There are some great pictures of the brown hamburger flower and seeds here. Good luck in your caching - and keep this Sea-bean moving to share the luck with others!
