We had got cold and wet while out and about earlier in the day, and after warming up back at our accommodation, we noticed that the drizzle had cleared up, and the sun had come out, so it was time to head out before dinner to look for a few more caches.StreetWalkerNZ got the fright of his life when he picked up the cache to discover a huge spider on the other side! He reckoned the spider was startled as well and wanted me to look at it where it had hidden itself away. I declined. TFTC.

#24725. I got a bit of a shock when I grabbed the eclipse tin and there was a spider lurking there (it had been hiding between the container and the guard rail). It was big by NZ standards (but probably not by Aussie standards. I persuaded it to hop off the eclipse tin on to the guard rail. TFTC.

Continuing my South Australian adventure. Today, I headed north with a particular cache in mind. I was headed back to my accommodation and stopped off to find a few caches along the way.

#19924. Day 10 of our holiday in SA and the weather forecast was for rain, showers and rain. Robmc and I loaded the geodoggies into the chariot and headed off around the countryside collecting caches where we could. Surprisingly, we managed 26 finds and finished off 2 waypoints of an AdLab we started on our last visit.

It seems there have been two magnetic Eclipse tins here since 2018. One log book is manky but we signed the one that was placed in 2015 and it is in excellent condition.

Thanks SnappyTomCats

Another day in the Barossa with BettyBoo3747 and the geodoggies.
The weather was looking a bit iffy so we traveled by car collecting caches in the rain around the Barossa.
No trains spotted today, but a couple of caches held together.
Thanks, Robmc.

Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children. Where ever possible, we will maintain your cache as we travel.

In the Barossa, staying in Nuri with our good friends Snappy Tom Cats. Today our final trip (hopefully) into Gawler for medicals, then drive back via Tanunda and Anguston.

Quick find in obvious spot. There are two containers and two log books 1 and 2. Thanks Grandeeze and SnappyTomCats.

Following part of the 50 series with gridge98, we targeted some surrounding caches. A few scattered showers around, and a little nippy, but otherwise a nice spring day.

Did the nearby rail crossing, and this cache was on the way through. Managed to find and sign the log. Thanks.

Out caching with my good friend Gral4 today. We decided to come back to the Barossa for the second time in a week and started the day early with breakfast at the Big Grill Razz.

All fueled up we hit the road again to see how many caches we could muster. Everything started off well but then we had water issues. We came across some wet log books and then we hit impassible wet roads so we affectionately dubbed today - "The Wet Ones Tour". It didn't detract from the fun, we had loads of it, it just meant we couldn't get to all the caches we wanted to do Twisted. I guess we'll just have to come back on a drier day!

In the end I found 60 caches Big Grin

A quick find here, phew......

TFTC Grandeeze Big Grin

We had a fun time!

Found 21 July 2017

## 'the wet ones' adventure! ##


Today I was out and about with Ismartis having geocaching fun before having to head back to work on Monday. We found lots, including this one, replaced some caches with CO permission, replaced a lid and some log pages, and had far too many DNF's. Lots of the caches were very wet so we ended up calling it a Wet Ones tour! All up a great day!

Quick find when we got to the right spot, not GPS problems, just a distracted navigator and then the driver! Tftc

**Day 2** of my trip. Staying locally for a couple of days before heading to Ceduna and making my way over to W.A. Naturally I stopped to find a few caches along the way.

A great spot for a cache. A nice quick find too (always good). Big Grin

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment Grandeeze. Big Grin

Stamped log and replaced... Cool
