Printable information sheet to attach to Tommy's Hairy Legs

Laura and I have hoped not to run into any creepy crawlers while on our Spring break 2024 in Australia, but we did. On the occasion of visiting this new continent, we decided to buy and release two TBs, which encapsulate our phobias and the possibly dangerous nature of this country. We hope these two will be traveling for a while around the continent (or region), and document some similar stories of other geocachers.
Laura's nope rope and Tommy's hairy legs are a snake and spider TB released in April 2024. We hope for these two TBs to travel the continent and gather stories and photos of the wildlife encounters (fun or scary) which this country has to offer. Hopefully, none too scary!
We hope to see many photos of the TBs' travels, and hope the two TBs can race against each other to see who travels further. Tommy's Hairy legs was dropped off first on April 14th at the countries' first robotic book retrieval library (with 1195km travled with us), while Laura's Nope Rope stayed with us for 2603.4km until April 16th, when it was left at the old Gippy TB hotel. We added 9 photos to is gallery and hope you can add some too! Safe travels!

I’ll have to power through a few logs here. Today is our last full day in Sydney; from morning till bedtime, before we head out on our road trip tomorrow. We did a lot; we had a very great unplanned walk through the entire town and during this single one day we visited 23 geocaches, all of which were great and easy city finds. As always, this TB was by our side the entire time and visited each of these caches, though I’m not sure there’s that much I can say about each individual visit. The point is — we are happy we could bring this TB to this stash!

Somehow, this is the one and only stash we visited today. In the morning, we rushed to from Mitcham Melbourne towards the airport; an hour long trip. Our flight was relatively uneventful, and after a shorter delay we landed in Sydney. Of course, as I always do, I snapped a photo from the plane with this TB by our side.
We managed to get out of the airport, collect our luggage and get on a train in record time (literally; only 20 minutes), and as we headed into town it was clear that getting a steak was higher on our list than to check into the hotel. And so we ordered steak just 35 minutes after we landed, after which we came to this stash, an easy find on our walk to the hotel. We then had an odd check-in at the hotel, and hit the bunks for the night. Well; there was still a bit of typing and planning, nonetheless this was a short day geocaching-wise.
I bet tomorrow will be a more productive day!

Me and the bugs reunited with Laura and Julia, and as we had our early dinner and a nice drink, we said goodbye for the evening and headed to town. We needed to do some shopping before we flew tomorrow, and while we were walking around I stopped at this one final stash of the day. Glad to have brought this TB here! Now it’s time to head home and rest!
