Geocache Description:

Ammobox with lots of travel bugs

This is the very first ever Lebanon Travel Bug Hotel. Does your travel bug need some rest and relaxation before going on another exciting journey? Would your travel bug like to socialize with others of its kind? Come visit the Lebanon TB Hotel and have it enjoy the amenities like 24 hours vending machines.

The LTB Hotel is located on a rest stop in between exit 19 and 18 off the I-89 S. It's a muggle rich area, so please re-hide carefully. I had a hard time getting good reception, so I averaged a series of coordinates, hope they are close enough to get you to the cache.

The rest stop has rest rooms, but I don't know what time they are open. On the way back from the Vermont Halloween Monster Cache Bash, we discovered that the rest rooms were only open to 9pm at one rest stop, and till 11pm at the other. Do people not need to pee after that time? We sure did!

There are normal trading items too, because I thought it would be kind of boring to just have a travel bug hotel. So you can either trade travel bugs, swag, or both. I put in a first finder prize 'Witches Abroad' from Terry Pratchett, since it fits in nicely with the hotel theme. Another bonus for the first finder is to just take out a travel bug without having to trade for another one. The swag includes duct tape, tiny barbie, hand sanitizer, frogs, cow, glow-in-the-dark moon, lego person, and more.

Hotel rules are to try to put in as many travel bugs as you take out. But if you are able to help a particular travel bug on its journey, then feel free to take it anyway, even without trading. I would like to keep a minimum of three travel bugs in the hotel. But again, if for example you are going on vacation to Hawaii, and two of those three TBs want to go there, just take them anyway, even if you don't have replacements.
