Current Goal

The twentyfive Colored Turtle's first mission is to spread out all over the world. I.e. their first aim is that each one gets to a separate continent, or at least to separate countries. To make the mission easier we in this context divide the world in more continents than usual six (Africa, America, Antarctica, Asia, AustralAsia, and Europe). "Our" 10 continents are:

1) Europe, 2) North America, 3) South America, 4) Africa, 5) Australia and New Zealand, 6) AustralAsia (except 5), 7) Middle East (Asia), 8) Far East (Asia), 9) North East (ex USSR, Europe and Asia), 10) Antartica.

The most efficiant way to spread out is to do giant jumps between caches in different parts of the world, but because turtles normally are slow, also small steps are welcome, as long as they move frequently.


Past GOAL:
This particular turtle is participating in a 6-month Trackables Race starting in Rome at the KG - Meet the Bubbles in Rome 2 "Flashmob" event (2016-04-10). The winner will be the TB that has travelled most distance during this following half year period, so the current mission for this Blue Turtle II is to travel fast and far! To clock in as many kilometres and miles as possible the next few months.

The SPARTACUS2016 Race finished 2016-10-10 and our mileage did not bring us near the top of the list. The Blue Turtle did however surprisingly win a price (third price) as being the TB furthest away from the starting point at the conclusion of the race. The prices were announced and awarded at the GIFF - International Film Festival 2016 - Rome event.

About This Item

Blue Turtle II

The twentyfive Colored Turtles are groups of identical (except for the color) objects that have different objectives at different times.

Their planned objectives are:

1) (current) Spread out all over the world.

2) (future) Meet occationally (two or more) in the same geocache.

3) (distant future) All return home to their birth place, Ladispoli, Italy

The members of the Colored Turtle family are:

The Silver Turtles Red Turtle, Dark Red Turtle, Blue Turtle, Blue Turtle II, Turquoise Turtle, Green Turtle, Dark Green Turtle, Black Turtle, White Turtle, Yellow Turtle, the Multicolor Turtle triplets 1, 2 and 3, the Gold Turtles Yellow Golden Turtle, Blue Golden Turtle, White Golden Turtle #1, White Golden Turtle #2, Golden MultiColor Turtle, Golden Brown Marbled Turtle, and the smaller Sea Turtles Yellow Golden Sea Turtle, White Sea Turtle, Golden White Sea Turtle, Red Sea Turtle, Red-White Sea Turtle, Black-White Sea Turtle

Note that the price of the object (the turtle) is only €1 while its tag costs €6. So please do not dispose of the tag even if the turtle has gone missing. The mission of eventual empty tags (without its turtle) is to immediately return to its owners cache (Casa Troll in Ladispoli - Italy, or anywhere in the Rome area), or better, that you attach some kind of new turtle to it and upload a picture of its new identity.
