Current Goal

The Bug The Bug

Well, I want to go to Copenhagen, Denmark, to a bar near the Train Station, get spent, have another 2 Kroner coin attached, then come home.

Please roll the bug and tag up, so that the 'I WANT TO GO TO COPENHAGEN' is the only GOAL that shows. Hold with the Velcro Rip-Tie I provided, or a rubberband, if the Velcro is gone.

About This Item

In March of 1996 (tag says May, it's wrong), I went to Copenhagen, Denmark to work on an SAS 767 for the Boeing Company (the forward cargo heat wasn't working). I had some free time, while I was there, so one day, around noon, I took a walk SW (more W) of the Train Station, with a co-worker. He wanted to stop in a bar we were walking by, for a beer. We walked in, and there was a guy playing an acoustic guitar. I asked if I could play, he said sure.

After a song or two, he went in the back and came back with another guitar (a copy of a Stratocaster), and an amplifier (like a Fender twin). We jammed for an hour or so. While he was playing, and I took a break, his girlfriend told me, he was not very happy today, until you showed up, and that I made his day. I told her, he made my day too.

I got this 2 Kroner coin, as change in that bar, and it has been on my key-ring ever since then, until I made this bug. It wants to go back to COPENHAGEN.

If somebody recognizes the (local) guy playing guitar, or the bar we are playing in, then Give him the 2 Kroner coin, and have him attach something to the bug, Then help it get back to SEATTLE, WA USA.

If this makes it to Copenhagen, but you don't recognize the guy or the bar, spend the 2 Kroner coin in any bar, attach another 2 Kroner coin with a different year on it (other than 1992), then help it get back to SEATTLE, WA USA, and I'll get it.

In the picture of the bar, above, I am on the left.

WHEN IT IS READY TO COME BACK TO SEATTLE, CUT THE LARGE PART OF THE TAG OFF. (Please cut in the middle of the clear area).

Well I'm here in Copenhagen, I looked around the area the bar was in for hours and hours, on a couple of different days, and I can not find it.

I was going to travel to Aarhus (where the bug is currently), but it is a very long trip, and I have run out of time, and am going home.

I did have to spend 2 extra days working, that I hadn't planned on, and that ate up a lot of time.

So I am going to let the bug stick to it's original goal (1 of 2, looking more like the second) uninterupted.

To Martmann - the owner :-)

Bus 14 or 17 from the railway-station to 'Skejby Sygehus' would get you to the area. And get off at 'The Skating hall'.

Good luck :-)

Well, I am taking a buisness/vacation trip to Copenhagen early June this year, since I should have a little time after the repair, I'm hoping I can hop on a train and go caching for my own travel bug, how cool would that be?

Anyway, if you can help that happen, great.

I found this TB on my first found cache ever - on a clear, frosty winters night.
And since I'm going back to Denmark (not Copenhagen though) in a few days I really felt obliged to accommodate the Bug on it's way.
And once in Denmark - I'm obliged to continue my search for caches there - to get this fine bug further on its search.
I hope it finds its target. I'll try to hurry.

Unfortunately, I could not find a cache in Copenhagen and my time was short. Now, I left the travel bug in Reykjavik, Iceland, from where plenty of flights depart to Kopenhagen.

This Travelbug is very lucky! I am traveling via Copenhagen in October. I probably won't have time to search for the bar, but I hope I will have enough time to place the bug in a cache somewhere near the train station or the airport, so local geocachers can help the travel bug with its goal.
