'Reindeer Pete' (his name as dubbed by my friends) was the first trackable I ever saw. At the time, we thought he was cute but wondered where we could find a cache big enough to fit him on the next leg of his journey.
And then we read his story. I was truly moved by your mother's tale. There is such beauty in strength and determination. I can only hope to live such a dignified life.
I had intended to take Reindeer Pete to a cache in Canberra, to look out at Canberra's politicians. However, given your mother's interest in oceanography, I thought I would take him somewhere she would really appreciate. Watch this space.
In the meantime, Reindeer Pete has been visiting the sights in Canberra, Australia's capital city. Photos to follow in the next few days. :)
Thank you for sharing your mother's story Ben's Honey, she sounds like she was an amazing woman.
