About This Item

Baseballsmurf

UPDATE (ENG) may2015

A lot has happend since january of 2012. Our son is no longer playing baseball and even the complete organisatie (ADO, The Haque, Netherlands) no longer exists. We didn't go on our journey in 2013. The TB and the cache that it was in completly disappeared. Becasue we our now planning our journey for 2016 we want to bring the TB (actually its brother) back into the game. We hope to collect it in a cache in New York in 2016.   

UPDATE (NL) mei 2015

Er is veel gebeurd sinds januari 2012. Onze zoon speelt geen honkbal meer en ook de vereniging (ADO, Den Haag) is inmiddels failliet. Onze reis in 2013 is niet doorgegaan. En de TB was in 2014 met cache en al verdwenen. Omdat we onze reis toch door willen laten gaan maar dan in 2016 gaat ook deze TB weer op pad, althans zijn broer. We hopen deze in 2016 in de buurt van New York op te gaan halen.  

 

ORIGINAL (ENG) - january 2012

The namegiver of our geocache nickname is playing baseball. The first photo of this TB is taken in front of his homestadium (ADO, The Haque, Netherlands). In 2011 the Netherlands became worldchampions baseball for the first time which made a big impression on us. As we are planning a trip to New York for 2013 we decided to combine these things and set this baseballsmurf on his way. We hope to collect it in a cache in New York in 2013.

ORIGINEEL (NL) - januari 2012
De naamgever van onze geocachenaam speelt zelf honkbal. De eerste foto van deze TB is genomen voor zijn thuisstadion (ADO, Den Haag). In 2011 is Nederland voor het eerst in de geschiedenis wereldkampioen honkbal geworden en dat heeft grote indruk op ons gemaakt. Omdat we van plan zijn in 2013 zelf naar New York te gaan, hebben we besloten om al deze zaken te combineren en deze baseballsmurf op reis te sturen. We hopen dat we 'm in 2013 in de buurt van New York weer op kunnen halen uit een cache.

Had baseballsmurf for a while...took him to the somerset baseball stadium and Trenton Thunder baseball stadium...couldn't find a large cache to leave him so this is the closest to Trenton Thunder! I hope he makes his way to NYC!! Good luck!!

This is our first Trackable find! We were extremely excited to find him and he's cute too. Love his goal! We plan on taking him more North and dropping him in a cache in Bridge Water, NJ near another baseball stadium! Maybe he will be able to see a game before he continues his journey to NY. Best wishes to Baseballsmurf!! :)

I enjoyed my time with Baseball Smurf. He visited the spot where George Washington crossed the Delaware River and turned the tide on the Revolutionary War. Hope you have fun in the USA!

I was very excited to pick up this Travel Bug today! I had to work hard to solve the puzzles in the Newtown Revolutionary War cache to get him but it was worth it. I am a teacher and I plan to share Baseball Smurf with my students tomorrow during our Geocaching Afterschool Club. Photos to follow.
