I add my name to the DNF List.

Seeing this one hasn't been located since Nov13, I reckon it's MIA. Perhaps a bit of maintenance could be done on this or have it archived.

On the way to tackle the Aussie Convict Series with Mogni and Mrs M from Aussie M & M. Cool Early start meant we could stop for a few on the way. How many time have I passed by this cache and thought, I must stop and get....oops missed the only park. Today..planned way back that stop we must. And with the car safely parked it was a little walk and a surprisingly quick find amongst the cachers nightmare.....ivy. Smile Could be worse..could be USA and it would be poison ivy. Thanks monkeysandus. Big Grin

Todays trip covered Gawler-Tanundra-Freeling & Return.
The countryside was mostly grapevines & fields of wheat & canola. We passed fantastic looking wineries, which we didn't stop to taste test any.

Had to be quick. Lots of passing muggles on the path.
 
04-May-13
Found on a huge day of caching which we are calling our Barossa Blitz. Mrs M just had to attend 'May the Fourth be with you' so our Barossa journey started with a trip into the city and ended on the back roads around Anguston a few minutes before midnight. At the end of an exciting but tiring day we had completed 77 caches.

This has been one of those caches that you always think about as you pass by. I think it was the only one in Tanunda that we had left to do. We stopped and Mr M made a lucky find. TFTC monkeysandus.

Heute fuhren wir durch das Barossa Valley und landeten wenige 100 Meter von diesem Cache entfernt auf einem Campground. Da konnte ich nicht widerstehen und machte mich nach dem Abendessen nochmals auf die Suche. Die Dose war schnell gefunden und ich trennte mich von einem der zahlreichen TB's, die wir mit nach Australien genommen haben. Tftc

Spring is sprung, the grass is ris: I wonder where the caches is?
Out with firesafe and honeysucker on a lovely spring day for a day's adventure while we searched for caches Big Grin
They found some, I found some and I lost track of how many times we managed to locus cache SurprisedBig Grin
This one took ages to find: so long that honeysucker felt compelled to come and put firesafe and myself out of our misery by retrieving the cache and then handing it to us!
SL. TFTC monkeysandus Smile
