Please Rescue Wanna B Divin

My travel bug, Wanna B Divin, attended High Country Plains, Peaks & Poetry - HCPPP in April and is floating about somewhere. I have a new ID for it and would dearly like to see it make its way home to Canada.

Please help me find it and send it on its way.

I had considered hosting an event but when you are not familiar with an area it is difficult to choose a venue. And when you are travelling it is impossible to check things out in advance.

Looks like there are no takers for the hospitality exchange. Well, we are visiting Oz mid-Oct to mid-Dec anyway.
