After a tasty pie and sauce for breakfast I headed to a known location to pick up some rubbish, enjoyed a colourful sunrise and poked a bear . It was then that I decided to make the most of this early start.I headed home, hopped on my bike , rode a couple of trains and followed a trail of caches into the vines .A most enjoyable day/night down south finding treasures.TFTC LBKeep smiling
Travelling with richlink on our Annual Caravan Geocaching road trip, using geocaching as our guide. We're staying in in the area for a few days, hunting down some nearby caches in this lovely part of SA. We walked the track enjoying all around us. This is the best of the OTD series that we have completed. Thank you. LNCU
Travelling with iluvtrekking from our home state of WA on a SA caching foray. Staying in Aldinga for a few days and ranging from there to grab some finds. Scored a beautiful day after a couple of chilly ones. Thanks for the hide LNCU

Found on a day out caching with cachehunter, our mini cacher (6 m.o) and Zoe the geo dog.Beautiful day for a cache. Tftc
Found with NiciDanielle, Zoe the Geodog & Elijah the Geobub. 3 from 3 so far for the day. GPS had me a little off. Geowife subbed in and found this one soon after. TFTC
Perfectly sunny day for a pedal Prob did 16 or so kliks from McLaren Vale to Old Noarlunga return - map showed 13km as the crow flies. Mixed results on the caching but picked up the pace closer to the coast. A swag of DNFs near my start point on the Shiraz Trail Then back to the Shingleback winery a bit later for tasting after I stowed the bike on the car.
Impressed with the good coords. Liked the containers for ride-by caching. A couple of hides with a Terrain rating of mountain goat but I was wearing runners. One butt slide to get back down to the track. A few waves and strange looks from others taking advantage of the balmy weather
Saving the other half of this trail for another day
TFTC COs Couldn’t have asked for a better excursion today.

It was a beautiful day for a walk along the Shiraz Trail in the company of The 4 Hawks and Moose 3. With the sun shining and a nice cool breeze we collected all the caches in this series between South Rd and Victor Harbour Rd. A bit of a milestone here as I racked up my 900th find. Thanks for taking the trouble to put out these caches.
Camping at Mt Compass for Easter today Mr Felix decided to cycle from Willunga to Old Noarlunga picking off caches as he went. Great day out but boy was the cycle trail busy and by the time he finished it was 33degrees and a bit warm. [B)]

PRETEND TO BE A TIME TRAVELER DAY
Pretend to be a Time Traveler Day on December 8th encourages us step from our Tardis or flip open our Omni while wearing clothes from the past. At the same time, we should act appropriately confused by certain technology.
Time travel has captured our imaginations for generations. Science and authors keep coming back to the topic again and again, so it should be no surprise there would be a day to pretend to be a time traveler. The original blog post that got the day rolling can be found here. For more resources on how to be a time travel or at least act like one, we can explore the wide array of television and movies produced over the decades.
For example, Doctor Who is in its 26th season. Some might say that might be plenty of resource material right there. Let’s not stop, though. We’ve made a list and some of them might surprise you.

HOW TO OBSERVE #PretendToBeATimeTravelerDay
Act like a time traveler. Choose your time period and decide whether you are traveling to the past or the future. Be overly shocked when someone says, “I’d kill for a double mocha latte right now,” or “That car is the bomb.” Misuse technology. When someone offers you earbuds to listen to a new song, sniff them to see if they smell good.

In Port Elliott today, great day for caching out to get a few near McLaren Vale before the heat hits later this week. TFTC
Put the sweat wheels on the car today and headed south, with primary aim being a couple of trads left in the O'Halloran Hill Recreation Park which is in my 42K circle from home. After that I headed further south to the December OTD series where the bike would also be useful. Ended up finding all 25 left in the series.
Thanks LíB for the cache and the series.

Down South again on this Perfect, Sunny but cool day of Wednesday the 9th of September 2020, i decided to finish off this the "OTD December" Series having done the rest from 17 December upwards a while ago. Pls note, all hides were found and were in good condition. [Some moisture-munchers were added where they were missing in some of the caches].

Decided to go for a walk today and had a look on the map and this OTD series looked good! started on sth rd side and convinced myself that I would go to the bridge and head back to the car.. but I ended up walking all the way to Victor Harbour Rd, Mclaren vale and back! Seen a fair bit of wildlife, snals, bugs, a RED BACK SPIDER, Kangaroos, a FROG and some sheep! TFTC!
Stopped to take a photo of my bike next to beautiful vineyard, and spotted the GeoCache! Very excited! On my Dad’s birthday too.
Found while out for a casual day of caching with Dr Owl.
