Current Goal

I want to travel from the oldest geocache in New Zealand (GC46) to Belgium - Ostend (GC6AKDW). Can you give me a lift? 

Wonderful story by TikvaNZ, august '23:
 
Regarding  TB8QGNY: Aetearoa – 
I visited geocaching HQ in Seattle the same day you placed this trackabale there.
I retrieved this trackable knowing I would be passing through Belgium soon.

The mission nearly failed. On 14 August, I was on the way to the San Francisco airport, when I stopped at a tourist attraction. While there my rental car was broken into, and my carry on luggage stolen, with my passport and all the trackables I was moving on, including this one.
Miraculously, within a few hours, and before my flight out, a kind gentleman happened to find most of the stuff on the roadside an hour away, including my passport and some of the trackables. He drove to the airport to reunite us with what he had found. I lost my NZ phone, my work laptop, and a few other electronic things. Unfortunately a couple of trackables are probably still in the grass where they were dumped. The good news is, this one survived to continue its journey.

Regards
TikvaNZ
