This cache was one of those found around or on the leap day February 29th, 2024 before, during or after the Mega event in Adelaide. Many thanks to all those owners who placed caches that VK7HCH and I found during our trip from Hobart to the Mega and return home again.

Out to collect some more caches a bit closer to home after my trip to the Yorke Peninsula yesterday, trying to clear up some DNFs and find ones I've had my eye on for a while.

Lovely spot for a walk on such a beautiful day.

Interesting history lesson at GZ.

I've learnt so many things I never knew before geocaching.

Favourite point for bringing me here

Put my signature in the log book and returned the cache to its hiding spot.

Thanks to Malco! for this cache.

Spent the morning and early afternoon cycling around the area - a beautiful day for a ride and the headwinds weren't too bad. Found 16 caches and DNFed on 4. Skipped the ones with a sequence of recent DNFs which was lazy but expedient.

Super quick find and fascinating spot to see the boats going up the Port River. Thank you

All the waters were very still today, and no whirlpool was seen. But a nice walk all the same. TFTC.

Had to go to a induction for the sub base for work. Since I was close to this one I drove to the trail head and walked to the cache. quick find.

Gosh that was hard to access with the tide encroaching! We tried to access it from the west along the path but a high incoming tide had the entire track under water! Had to find another route to the cache. Good fun! TFTC

A lovely afternoon to get off work early and take a walk around the area with [@Davidwazza](http://coord.info/PR61VZX) ! TFTC!

Following work, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I planned on heading north towards Outer Harbor and Osborne to do a few caches around the wetlands. We had spied the Excelsior shipwreck from previous visits around here, and so we thought it would be a nice evening to follow some of the paths. Truthfully, I thought there would be a few wrecks to see, not just that one, but it was still a pleasant evening. We managed to check out Falie Reserve just around the corner, before heading back home completing a few* Used 2B a Church* caches needing various cache types for today.

It was a shame that this cache needed to be relocated, as some of the photos of the whirlpool in the gallery looked cool. We made the walk into the scrub, and with only limited places for a cache to be hidden, we made the quick find at GZ. The cache container was ok, but the logbook consisted of tatters of paper, so a CO visit may be timely soon to replace the logbook. Thanks Malco! for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Today I had convinced the Geohusband to come out for a bit of caching. We headed down to Port Adelaide area with Rex the geohound, where we found some new caches, went for a big walk to Pelican Point, had a picnic, found a lab cache did some cache maintenance and hid a new cache.
Fun day out and then home and a 2 hour walk at Shepherd Hill.
Nice walk here just not sure we saw a whirlpool but we found a nicely hidden cache. TFTC Malco!

Thanks Malco for this cache. I visited this one during my travels today, and signed the log, but didn't log it until I got home. I signed and then turned to look at the sky and needed to get back to the car quick smart before the heavens opened up. Great location, path was a little slippery in places.

Thank you!! Glad I had my waterproof shoes on today!

Rare leave pass on a weekend to go caching and so I arranged to meet Anymules at a morning event and do just that. Razz We considered a long walk in a park but the weather didn't appear to be clearing so in the end decided to hit the Port and clear out a few there. Cool

No more whirlpools, the levee has been breached in two places and the tide runs in as intended. This also means you can't do a circuit and this is the last stop on before having return the way you came. But as we walked towards GZ we did see a large ship cruising along with no river in sight. Surprised Guess whose cache's got a land boat! cache found in a an obvious spot. Smile

**Thanks Malco! for this cache. ** Big Grin

The cache name certainly brought back memories of a long past advertising campaign. Accurate coordinates led to a quick find of a good little hide. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Malco! for the cache,

Sadly there were only some remains of this cache. We prepared a new spot and will return with a better container. Beware the Crab Guardian.
