Description
Hello! I am "The Little Prince" named after my namesake in the book "The Little Prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. (The book is a favourite of The Kat's, Geo-Hero and Xinders.) It was published in 1943, the year before the author disappeared ... missing in action while flying his plane on a mission during the war. There is a link here showing a picture of the author's army tag and chain which strangely enough, was found many years later by a fisherman in 1998! It was only after finding that tag that the wreck of his aircraft was eventually discovered.
I was picked up last week from a store in Singapore by a special someone who was there on holiday, then flown all the way to Perth, chosen especially to participate in the Leap Frog Race which runs from December 2011 till the end of January 2012. The rules for the race can be found here. When the race is over, I become a normal movable geocache on the Geocaching Australia website. Thank you for finding me and for helping me on my travels!! Don't forget to sign my log!!
(There is a FTF coin for the cacher who finds me for the very first time.)
