1 year ago - Anniversary

Today, one year ago Johannes and Frederikke did send the LEGO minifigs Jo-Jo and Frikke out to travel the world. They have been around a big part of the world - France, Japan, Canada, Bolivia, Peru, Greece ...

It did not happen as fast as we initially hoped and then they disappeared!

When we realized, that they had disappeared for real, we decided to send a search and rescue team out to find them. t3T as the new team is called, is well on its way. They have been in Australia and Panama and are now on their way to Holland.

Our hope is that t3T will be travelling faster around the world and that they will not get lost.

The goal is to cover even more countries and continents in the next 365 days.

Rescue team has arrived in Panama – March 2009

The Lego rescue team has arrived in Panama and they have been so busy looking after Frikke and Jo-Jo that they haven’t had the time to send a message home.

The first place they searched was in the international school of Panama (ISP). Here they met some 3rd graders, who promised to help with the search in Panama.

Later that day they meet some local Lego men from Holland. They were also interested in helping.

Another day they went to the oldest city on the Pacific Coast – Panama Viejo. This city was founded in 1519 and was the first European settlement along the Pacific. Unfortunately the city was burned by pirates in 1671 and today there are only ruins left and no signs of Frikke and Jojo.

After looking around for some days in Panama without result the rescue team decided to search at the Caribbean Coast of Panama in the old city called Portobelo (beautiful port). The name of the city was given by Christopher Columbus in 1502 on account of the beauty of its natural harbor.

But but but... Even though the rescue team asked a lot of people, local and tourists if they have seen Frikke and Jojo the answer was still : No signs of Frikke and Jojo in Panama!

Therefore the rescue team has now decided to continue their search in Holland as there are some rumors that they have been seen over there.

Good bye for now and we cross our fingers here in Panama that you will find our friends in Holland.

West Australia

We arrived in Perth, Western Australia - and after recovering from a bit of jetlag we went out searching for our friends.
The first thing we discovered in Western Australia was the long, long distances between everything, and it was quite difficult to cover the whole lot - but we did our best.
First of all, there was this nice Aussie bloke who told us that he had seen them at
Murdoch University and this was our first place to look. We looked in every room, the café, the library and the food court but unfortunately there was no signs of them,
Next, we went to the beach because a sheila told us that this was the place to look for people in the hot summer. Ohh… yes, there was a lot of people at the beach, but not many of them went out in the water. There has been a lot of
white sharks in this area. We got a bit worried that our friends had been attacked by a shark, but then a little boy told us that he had spotted two small guys at the local café DOME.
At this café we meet Mr. Wiceguy, and he had talked to our friends the day before. It was a scary story he told us about how our friends had walked for days in the bush without water, and almost got caught up in a
bushfire, but the last thing he had heard about our friends was that they had left the country with some strange guys. He couldn’t tell us whether they were bad or good guys, but the main thing is our friends are still alive!

We have received a letter from the headquarter that our friends have been spotted in Panama City, so we are off with the first flight to Panama.

Cheers The Trio Team (t3T)

Where are they now?

Where are Jo-Jo and Frikke now? Usually no news is good news but we are very worried!

Are they in transit? Have they been kidnapped by freedom fighters and will we recieve a note one of these days?

Please 'call'!

If, we do not hear from Jo-Jo and Frikke before Christmas we will send a Search & Rescue party out in the world to find them.

Or, maybe we should call on The Action Monk?


Do not worry Jo-Jo and Frikke. We will not abandon you!


Love Johannes & Frederikke
