This is no ordinary geocaching trading item!
Duckie Race - RITZ QUACKERS (magenta tag) is a Trek 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:
This little fellah is one of four in a race to get to Tacoma, Washington and then beyond! Help him meet his goal! He loves water. I would love photos of him especially near fountains, lakes, ponds!
It was January of 1992. A cargo ship departing from Hong Kong en Route to Tacoma, Wash. lost 29,000 rubber duckies, froggies, turtles, and other bathtub toys due to some unfortunate accident... or perhaps it was a daring escape! Most of the duckies traveled south and landed on the shores of Australia, Indonesia, and South America. The rest of the rubber duckies decided to make their fortune by going north to the Arctic. It was a long and treacherous journey. They ended up frozen in ice! But their story doesn't end there. They broke free after a few years and headed straight towards Britain in summer of 2007. Their voyage lasted over fifteen years. They were destined to be mere bathtub toys, but instead they traveled the world and taught scientists a lot about how the ocean currents work!
