Cowboy Austin on the move...

Austin started a Travelbug in a nearby cache. A travelbug is part of geocaching that is a trackable dog tag that you attache to an item and give them a mission. Cowboy Austin's mission is to travel anywhere someone wants to take him. The Geocacher picks him up out of a cache and moves him to the next. Well, something happened that is unheard of. A couple picked him up and took him on a trip to Europe. It is so great for Austin to learn geography this way.

Here are a few pictures from his journey:

Wow, look at that the lake in Zurich, Switzerland (a little close to the edge, don't you think?):

Austin is very excited to see where Cowboy Austin ends up next.
