As we head from town to town as part of our "Purposeful Meander around Oz" the Rats and the Mini Rats found this cache.

[Teal]As we head from town to town as part of our "Purposeful Meander around Oz" the Rats and the Mini Rats found this cache. Dad did most of the hard work here, the detail of our find can be found in the Rats log. Sorry for the duplicate log but it takes nothing away from the find.

Thanks for being part of our great adventure.

I was expecting to find this cache at a sign as you leave Karratha, not as you leave permanently.
When we arrived in town we saw a couple looking in this area, maybe they left the pathtag that we picked up
Thanks Matthew Supertramp

04-May-13
Picked up TB to take on our travels south next week.
 
02-May-13
Dropped off TB. This one started in Bunbury, Western Australia and has been to a couple of caches in Perth area before returning back to Bunbury.

Have been looking for a bigger cache than micro size to put this in and somewhere where it should be picked up very easily to continue it's journey

The owner has dedicated it to his family and would like it to travel so please take it north and/or interstate and/or overseas and let the owner have fun of seeing the wonderful places this TB ventures to.

Owners quote "We have never travelled outside Western Australia. Perhaps this Travel Bug can find its way to places we can only dream off."

Please help him fulfill his travelling dream

Cheers
