About This Item

dmp

This travel bug belongs to the 1st grade geography class at Day-McKellar Preparatory School in Alpine California.  
As part of our studies we launched this bug on a virtual field trip to go places our class can’t.  
We are following its every move and are learning about the areas where the bug has visited, we would like to “see” where it is.
If you could take a picture of our bug at its destination or in the area where you cache it, or a picture of something interesting in the surrounding area and post it on the geocache log, we would surely appreciate it!

Please hide our bug in easy to get to or popular caches, we’d like to keep it moving!
 
If this bug has already reached Disneyworld, please help it travel around the South Eastern United States to visit as many places as possible!

Enjoying the views of Rochester, NY and Lake Ontario!

  • DMP - Disney World visits Rochester, NY On November 8, 1803, a 100 acre tract in Western New York along the Genesee River was purchased by Col. Nathaniel Rochester, Maj. Charles Carroll, and Col. William Fitzhugh, Jr. (1761-1839), all of Hagerstown, Maryland. The site was chosen because of three cataracts on the Genesee, offering great potential for water power.
  • DMP- Disney World over the Genesee River Valley Rochester was known as the "Flour City" in 1838, because it was the largest flour-producing city in the United States.

Today it is home to the Eastman-Kodak Company, Rochester Institute of Technology, and Eastman School of Music.

Flying over the mighty Niagara Falls.

  • DMP - Disney World at Niagara Falls As we approached the falls from the east, flying into the late afternoon sun, we could see the cloud of mist rising over the falls long before we could see the falls themselves.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (February 27, 1807 – March 24, 1882) was an American educator and poet whose works include "Paul Revere's Ride", The Song of Hiawatha, and "Evangeline"

Longfellow predominantly wrote lyric poems which are known for their musicality and which often presented stories of mythology and legend. He became the most popular American poet of his day and also had success overseas.

  • Atlantic Coast of Maine This picture was taken north of Portland along Maine's Atlantic coast near Acadia National Park.
  • Portland Lobster Company Native Americans called the Portland area Machigonne. The first European settler was Capt. Christopher Levett, an English naval captain in 1623.

The city seal depicts a phoenix rising out of ashes, which aligns with its motto, Resurgam, Latin for "I will rise again", in reference to Portland's recoveries from four devastating fires. 

The city of Portland, Oregon, was named for Portland, Maine.

In June of 1604, Samuel de Champlain and Sieur Des MontÕs landed on St. Croix Island near the mouth of the St. Croix River within the present day city limits of Calais. With their companions they spent the winter there, creating the first European settlement on the North American continent north of Florida, and founding the French colony of Acadia.

The international significance of this event cannot be understated.

The island is the English equivalent of Plymouth Rock to those of French descent.
