Demise of Errant AirTag

After months of sailing the seas without me, my AirTag landed in Venice on May 8th and has never moved again. Maybe tossed into the Venetian Canals? Maybe hidden in a crevice of an unused suitcase? I will probably never know for sure. I keep checking. Just wanted to update you on the current immobile status.

I want to be in Venice, too!

We are getting ready to take a journey to a whole new set of petroglyphs, so I have activated a new AirTag. I love these things. I am taking a checked bag this time, for a stop in Denver where I will initiate my niece’s twins into the art of quilting. Just basic stuff, rotary cutting and beginning piecing, and the idea of a quilt. I’ve had a lot of fun planning this, and I have a suitcase full of resources for their exploration.

The set-up is so easy that a technologically impaired elder can do it in under a minute. How cool is that?

So as I set up, I also checked on independent AirTag, the one that disappeared in Barcelona, traveled the Med, crossed the Atlantic, went up the Amazon and crossed back the Atlantic to Barcelona and is now in Venice. Venice! I love Venice. AdventureMan loves Venice. We find Venice endlessly interesting.

And the Villa del Geologia. Wow. I don’t think I even knew it existed. I love that this little AirTag has this fascinating life of its own.

We are taking our son and his family on a trip next year, and I think I will gift them AirTags, for their luggage, for their backpacks, maybe even for their kids. How handy it would be to be able to keep track of all the individuals traveling together as they scattered out in an airport! Of course, you have to get their consent, otherwise, as the instructions tell you, it would be stalking, and against the law.

For A, Because You Asked ðŸ˜˜

“So where’s your AirTag these days?” asked my friend, A, who knows who she is, so I won’t put her name here and embarrass her.

I don’t know. Guess today would be a good day to check.

And there it is, still in motion, now back for Spring in the Gulf of Valencia, close to where the big adventure started. I’m still not sure what ship it is on, or whether it is with someone who switches ships.
