An easy find But such an elaborate and carefully crafted cache.Unfortunately, its showing a little bit of where I may need maintenance in the near future. Thanks so much for the time put into this one and it deserves an FP! TFTC
Love the planning that went into this one! A nice easy morning walk, a coffee & croissant nearby, and now off to my transportation home. Thank you!
Magically a second dry log book appeared in the cache Today out and about on 234 of 274 days to get my daily cacher Emerald Using my Garmin Etrex 22X and MacBook Air!Thanks for the cacheTFTC
After visiting the big blue maze nearby, we swung by here for this cache.Log was very wet. I dried it enough with my jeans to sign. Clever camo.Seascout78, I found Amongst the Flashing Lights (Sth) today. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.
Late flight in to Adelaide and thought I'd grab a quick cache ... but not to be ... far too dark to see without some artificial light. Will be back!

Adelaide day four: Teamed up with RoamingHowie, Papi4506 & Geoturtle37 to find some caches of interest. We found parking directly opposite gz. Then it was a quick stroll over to quickly find and sign the log. Bang on coords.Thanks for bringing us here by placing this cache, Seascout78 ~~
After a great Leap Day Mega event a couple of days ago and a nice road trip to Victor Harbor and catch up in Glenelg yesterday, today I was mostly by myself on my last day here apart from when I attended a couple of events. I drove around doing whereigos, a few multis and a few puzzles I had solved. As I got slowly closer to the airport I did some ad labs and a fair few trads until I had to head off to catch my flight. It was the end of an enjoyable few days.That is an exposed location but I was onto it quickly thanks to the accurate coords. Thanks Seascout78 for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.
Signed as CGV with bellahappychappy en route to the CITO this morning.Thanks for placing it here, a favourite point from me.
Fav point given , I understand why it has so many. It deserves it Signed BHC and im with CGVSigned as part of QANVT, super stoked to on this mission with this great groupWe are targeting another geo art series, Barossa, Anna Tommy and now Unicorn series today, signing as Unicorns which represents cachers from Queensland and ACT northern territory, Victoria and TasmaniaI want to say thanks to the CO fit the placement of this cache.It was a big drive from Corryong, in the North East of Victoria.I collected a couple of geo caches along the way to fill in some new LGAs. I have collected the south Australia souviner plus the leap year souviner too YAY!! It has been a big few days enjoying Adelaide and the surrounding areas. .So glad to be here
I had never geocached in South Australia before, and with a Mega event on offer, I thought I would pop in to my neighbours for the day. Took the first flight in from Melbourne and the last flight out. Got back to Melbourne just before midnight of this leap day 2024.My plan was to walk Adelaide collection as many types of possible, oldies, Virtuals, Earthcaches, and most importantly, my first Webcam. From the airport to the event, collecting caches on the way. Then, he chatted with friends at the Mega before walking to the heart of Adelaide. The city was busy, and I bumped into a number of geocachers, my locals, interstate cachers, and at the webcam, a Polish group of geocachers. Cheated on the way back to the event and took public transport, but did walk the 5 kilometres back to the airport for my return flight home.I was pleased that I got at least 1 of every type, most of the oldies I wanted, and walked over 20 kilometres. Maybe I should have had a sports watch on recording the steps. Thanks to everyone for a great adventure. I'm heading back to the airport, and my route took me past this one. Nice hide in this busy place.Thanks for the cache, Sea Scout 78.Hunter
Today I met up with some old and some new friends who were visiting for the Leap Day Mega. We had no set plans for the day, just to cache and try to stay out the sun - well we achieved one of these things at least.Thank you Seascout78 for placing and maintaining this cache for us to find today.
Reperio 12:24After arriving in Adelaide this morning, and checking into my motel, I headed off on foot in search of a few caches. Wandered on to GZ, and with great coordinates, soon spotted the nicely camouflaged cache. Gratias Seascout78As a well spent day brings happy sleep, a well spent life brings happy death - LDV

On a pre Leap Forward hunting expidition with HansAndLinda & DiMorgan. Grabbed this one on route to tonights event. Another great day for caching. TFTC Seascout78
That is such a cute cache. We've been driving past this one for donkeys and finally stopped to get it but hard to make it look not suspicious which was really quite tricky. Thanks for the cool hide
We decided to get out early today and go find some geocaches, before spending the afternoon with family watching the grand final. Brilliant cache hide. TFTC Team IMP666
I found it quite quickly! Hopefully I didnt look too suspicious to the people passing by there was a small amount of water in the bottom but the logbook was dry. TFTC
Had a lovely afternoon with family. Went to the airport to see the daughter off back to Sydney. She drove in the hire car, so we needed to make or way home to Gawler. Using our foot leather, we grabbed a cache first. Cache log, replaced and stamped. We then sort google help to get back to Gawler. Thanks for helping us keep healthy and achieving our goals.
On my way to the airport to pick up some friends and, as I’m running a little early I decided to make a stop and find a cache
Log was very wet and slimy but my magic pen was able to leave my name on the log.

We are staying in Adelaide for a week and have a couple of days before my neice joins and and we start the catch ups with family over here We targeted high FP caches as well as others nearby. After going back to the HH for lunch we set off again in a different direction and this was next and last for the day. It was getting really cold by now so we were glad when GMelb spotted the cache pretty quickly. Unfortunately the log was very very damp. We managed to scribble a GJM on it. Needs replacing.

Thanks for the explicit rules about the green box. The actual cache is very well done & worth a favourite. Thanks!
Clocking up cache finds for the May Wheel of Challenges, on my way home after an evening out!
Once my coordinates caught up, GZ was found within mere seconds. Very creative cache, this is apart of what Geocaching is about

I read the description properly, so l knew the box was NOT the place to look. Just as well, because it stands out. I was looking for other features, and spotted the hide before long. Thanks Team IMP666 for this piece of devilry.
Found it parked up, looked right, spotted cache without leaving the car. Retrieved and stamped fresh log book. Stamped as The Brown Family aka “the coloured mint tin by the sea people”

Cool camo, log wet, signed ag and photo as proof of logsheet. Found TFTC SL with mackay_geocaching. On Holidays from Mackay Qld and travelling the Great Ocean Road from Melbourne to Adelaide and making stops along the way. Thanks for placing this cache for our enjoyment.
I had a 5 hour stopover in Adelaide on my way from Melbourne to Whyalla so I decided to go a-wandering. A quick find at the GZ however there was a fair bit of water in the cache (which I emptied) and the log was wet. With a get pen I managed to get my name on the log (could do with replacing...sorry I didn't have one). TFTC.
Found it, Yeah

As it’s a nice albeit overcast day, thought I’d get out on the bike and see if I could pick up a few caches here & there
Unfortunately the log was absolute mush, and double drat) I don’t have paper or a spare log on me

Decided to clear up a few more caches while in the area since the weather has improved.
As it was a spur of the moment decision I didn't have my stamp so it's back to good old pen and pencil.
I did a lap around before eventually spotting the well camouflaged cache.
However, the log book is soaked and is unsignable and the cache is full of water.
Probably worth a CO check.
Funny that I found this cache today... as I've seen 6 fire appliances, 7 ambulances and 1 police car. One of the fire appliances leaving from the nearby fire station while writing this sentence... so I've definitely been amongst the flashing lights today.
Tweezers, torches and other useful tools of the trade are always on hand for necessary cache retrieval.
As well as a first aid kit and gloves for when things get messy.

Thanks Seascout78 for this cache.

Headed out for a wander tonight after work and ended up very close to this cache. The coordinates were spot on and it was a straightforward find. The log is very wet though and I couldn't sign it. Emptied the water out from the cache but this may need some attention. TFTC
Adelaide and South Australia Trip Christmas 2021/2022. Day 18. With the side trip to Loxton over, I was spending another week in Adelaide. I had a half day spare, so decided to go back to Glenelg to finish the LABs I did not get to before Christmas and fit in as many other caches I could. I ended up the day with the Planespotting LABs and then the real challenge, working out GZ.
The log was wet here today.
Thanks for the cache Seascout78

Easier than North!! Nice to have a few easy finds scattered around the airport waiting spots. Thanks!
Good hide looks same as others Shari and I have a bigger cache like this with us in our caching boxes tftc cheers wheres Wolly and sharon
After finding the the sibling of this, we were wrongly looking for the same clues... bad move. we soon (well... Plus One did...) found it! We believed we were being watched, so in fine form, we repeated our fake observation, discussion and nodding in agreement charades for quite longer, lingering for a while at subsequent locations, to remove suspicion!

A new dry cache in the same spot. Please ensure you screw both ends reasonably tight - but of course not TOO tight that it is impossible for the next cacher.
Staying nearby and needed a walk, was still a little damp inside from rain this morning, perhaps a little hole drilled in bottom to let the water out , will reduce the maintenance. nice Camo TFTC.
This took a bit of looking around and then BINGO! got it! Very well done thanks
Thanks for the cache seascout! The log book is unfortunately drenched and needs to be replaced. Found at 1607 with conardel
