Akuanka is ready for new adventures after a long rest in my desk-drawer. Of my six trackables he is the only one not lost. I hope he will be taken to interesting places. The trackable is a plastic figurine of Donald Duck.
This bug used to be Gubben Pettson (Old Man Petterson), a character created by Swedish author/illustrator Sven Nordqvist.
However, after a magic transformation, it turned into Harry. A character from the danish railroad's commercial.
Then, after an unfortunate stay in Helsinki, Harry also went missing leaving only his tag behind in the snow. The TB's mission subsequently changed to return to it's birthplace. But now he is off travelling again!
After travelling Finland for a while, another magic transformation took place. The ghost of Harry turned into Akuanka (Donald Duck in Finnish).
This travel bug vas originally, as Gubben Pettson, linked to Findus the cat, but now the kitten also has gone missing and we must hope they both can have a rebirth. The sages and soothsayers of geocaching see scant evidence in the stars that this will happen.
Incidentally thanks to Sooder I discovered that there exists another pair of Pettson and Findus traveling, created by Gievos. Interestingly enough this Findus was also missing for a while, but reappeared and is now on the road again. Let's hope my Findus also will reappear, and maybe someday meet up with his friend again.
