Current Goal

It's time to go home.

Little Kiwi Pingu has been to lots of places in Austrailia over the last 8 years  and even Argentina.

He is getting travel weary and he would really like to come home to Auckland North Shore New Zealand.

Can you help him on his way back?

This trackable, along with many others, was enjoyed on the Discovery table at the Capital GeoBash mega in Canberra over Easter 2024. So many trackables came together and enjoyed the collective limelight before heading off on the next chapter of their journey. Thanks to everyone who contributed. 🌟🙏🌟

Picking this one from the Canberra Mega and going to take it back down to Melbourne to near the Airport to hopefully get someone to take it back to New Zealand. We love penguins so out of all the caches here today this was our pick :)

Dropped Off 3/29/2024 Wombatwandering placed it in Capital GeoBash Australian Capital Territory, Australia - 2.44 miles  Visit Log

Goodbye Little Kiwi Pingu, this is as close to New Zealand as I can get you. I’ve dropped you at the Capital GeoBash Mega. It’s a week long event over Easter with lots of optional side trips to things like the Tidbinbilla Deep Space Station and Parliament House. There are trivia nights, the most fantastic puzzle labs I’ve ever seen, car rallies, flag ceremonies, and even a wedding! It really puts our one day Megas in Europe to shame. They do a crazy thing though of putting all the trackables on a table and no one can take any until the 31 March. You can only discover until then. I suspect that many will end up in a bag to be dumped at the next Mega. I hope that’s not you. Good luck! 🐸

Edit - I can’t believe you’ve been put back in the same cache as I rescued you from. How annoying!!!!

Visited 3/28/2024 Wombatwandering took it to Gubur Dhaura - Red Ochre Ground Australian Capital Territory, Australia - 52.41 miles  Visit Log

Finally made it to Canberra, the capital city of Australia, and home to the GeoBash Mega. We registered at the Mega site and then hit the caches of northern Canberra. Great views from Gubur Dhaura, a fascinating, ancient area of Aboriginal habitation and a significant heritage site. Gubur Dhaura means ‘ochre ground’ in the Ngunnawal language. In the past, the Ngunnawal people invited other tribal groups here to acquire ochre for ceremonies, trade and other purposes. 🪃
