Current Goal

This travel bug is starting it's journey near Los Angeles, California.  It main goal is to take a trip to Paris and visit the real Eiffel Tower and have it's picture taken there.

First it wants to work it's way across the United States to the East Coast, so please try to move it in that direction.  Once it reaches it main goal of having it's picture taken at the Eiffel Tower, it wants to visit some caches in France.

After spending some time in France, it wants to eventually return to the United States and make it's way back to California.  Once in California it wants to make it to it's final destination Technogeek @ Lake Hodges cache.

About This Item

The New Eiffel Tower Travel Bug

Note:  This travel bug is currently MIA  (Please Read Log Below)

This is a cool little model of the Eiffel Tower.  It has a digital clock at the bottom.  The clock is set to Pacific Standard Time representing the time in California where it started it's journey.  Please don't change the time.

Note:  The original Eiffel Tower T-Bug with clock was stolen from a cache.  My thanks go out to Gecko Dad for retrieving the tag and attaching a new Eiffel Tower.

Thanks - Rocket Man

Restored this travel bug by retrieving a new Eiffel Tower from The River Runs Through It, a disabled multi-cache in San Diego''s Mission Trails Regional Park. The new tower is brass. Picked up the travel bug tag in the Anza Borrego Desert State Park as previously noted. Will post photos for Rocket Man after I return from Virginia in a couple of weeks.

Retrieve It from a Cache 4/15/2003 Team Gecko retrieved it from Imperial Railway California   Visit Log

Picked up the towerless tag at GCF02F. Looked around the Imperial Railway cache area but did not find it. Apparently is a victim of a cache looter as mentioned by the Splashfolks. Will return the tag to Rocket Man or find a suitable replacement tower to attach to the tag.
