Description
Small red stegosaurus seeks new travel experiences on behalf of adventure addicted bear.
Stegosaurus from Greek stegos which means roof and sauros which means lizard.
Teddy Bear from the Old English Edwardii and the English Bear which means furry friend. In particular relating to one particular furry friend; the one and only Samboo Bear - adventurer, coffee lover, chocolate connoisseur.
So what is in common between the two?
Well, nothing except a certain bear would like to particpate in the Spring Caching Carnival and a certain stegosaurus would like to escape from his life as just another plaything in a toybox for when "parents come for meetings". Combine the two, and you have a Steggy ready to volunteer as a moveable cache for a Teddy.
Don't worry, there are plenty of other toys for bored toddlers.
So what do you do?
Steggy is pretty bright in colour and so would appreciate a cover of naturally occuring camo when you rehide him.

Out and about caching in and around Coffs Harbour with Tassie Trekkers and we stopped to find steggy. Boy he was hiding well, about 20 m from GZ. TFTM
Caching in the area with whitewebbs and this was one of the moveables we found. Had to widen our search to find this one and his mate as 20m from GZ. Now in need of some TLC as a bit grubby. Thanks to the specific hint we were able to find him.
Many thanks SambooBear for publishing this cache and adding to our geocaching experience.

The work was quickly done, so we called into the supermarket to buy a drink, and what did we see but these massive blocks of chocolate - and only $3.50 - so we just had to buy one. Steggy seemed to love the stuff as much as his friend Samboo. His eyes lit up and he was in heaven.
We called in by the river to open the block and have a few pieces before returning to Lismore. Steggy and George loved the spot so much that they asked if they could stay for a bit longer. Secretly though, I'm pretty sure they just ate too much chocolate to climb back into the truck!
So Steggy waits at a lovely little spot to stop and nibble some sweets at - Ferry Park - right by the Pacific Highway. Hopefully someone calls into visit him soon!
So all four of us will need to go on a weekend adventure and see where destiny leads us. It'll probably be some where with Ice Cream. And Chocolate.
A quick walk thorugh the park, and Steggy was found, grazing on a fig tree.
"Eat up", I said to the little dino "You'll need to grow big and strong - you've got some travelling to do."
He decided to hitch a ride with us - insisting we find him some Northern Rivers plants to munch on.
