This is no ordinary geocaching trading item!
Ikea the Giraffe traveller is a Travel Bug Dog Tag Travel Bug, traveling from geocache to geocache on a very specific mission.
If you do not intend to log your visit on the Geocaching.com web site, please DO NOT TAKE THIS ITEM. Its travels and its progress requires you to log that it is being taken from this geocache. You will also need to log when you place it in another geocache. It's easy!
If you are willing to log your part of this Trackable's journey and place it in another geocache as soon as possible (after you log your find), grab it from this geocache.
My Current Goal:
Travel in fun places, take fotografs and post them back to my profile! How - please read below.
NB!
-
Taking fotografs and posting them is entirely optional, you can still carry Ikea the Giraffe traveller from place to place as usual. however, Ikea would be extremely happy if you do take some fotografs!
-
PLEASE do not place Ikea the Giraffe traveller in dodgy caches - that is, caches with high risk (or previous record) of being looted, destroyed or simply unsuitable for trackables. Thanks!
Here's what to do with Ikea the Giraffe traveller:
1. take fotografs with Ikea the Giraffe traveller in some fun/picturesque location;
2. upload the fotograf(s) somewhere they can be linked from. eg. your own personal site or blog, a photo site like flickr or picasa or even geocaching.com (you can add photos to logs - here's a video tutorial how to do that);
3. go to Ikea the Giraffe traveller trips map and add a waypoint with the photo(s) and your story to the map. here's detailed explanation how to add a waypoint to the map;
4. (optional) get the link of the map (click on the link icon on right-hand corner of the map and copy from there) and add it to your drop-off log on geocaching.com;
5. thanks! all nice pictures and stories will be automatically featured in Ikea's blog at http://www.ikeathegiraffe.com/blog
