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 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
I dont think its here anymore . We searched both sides of the creek and found nothing. -Mummy and Levi
Another cache find on our 2022 South Australian Adventure. Our thanks to the COs who have contributed to the great time we have had on our Geo-guided tour.
We arrived in McLaren Vale today. After setting up camp we enjoyed a walk along the rail trail. This cache was soon in hand, logbook signed and cache replaced as found. Thanks LíB

I had impulsively signed up to do the Bright Walk around Adelaide, which was taking place at the end of the month. I then realised that I needed to do a little bit of training, as 21km with no km in the legs probably isn't the smartest of ideas! I ended up doing a few of the OTD caches around McLaren Vale. I'm not sure how far I ended up walking, but there were quite a few found along the way. Exercise done + caches found = good day! TFTC LíB and sorry for the very late log...

Out for an afternoon caching on the bike today. A quick find on this October cache. Tftc!
Working on the McLaren-old Noarlunga part of this trail after school every Wednesday. TFTC
Few scratches and some things stuck in my hair, but she was logged and replaced. Tftc! Found with a seeker
Took us a while but once we saw it, it was just reaching through to get it!
Quite a geotrail to this one. Once you’ve spotted it there’s no going back.
TFTC and series!
TFTC and series!
Out chasing numbers again and today it was the October OTD and the Bletchley series and anything else that seemed like a good idea. Managed to finish what I'd planned just on dark with over 60 finds and only 2 DNFs.
Thanks to LíB for putting out this cache for me to find

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)]

Events:
1938 The War of the Worlds is broadcast, but people think it's real, creating a nationwide panic.
1960 The first successful kidney transplant is performed in the UK.
1974 Muhammad Ali knocks out George Foreman in "The Rumble in the Jungle."
2001 Michael Jordan returns to the NBA after 3 1/2 years of retirement and baseball.
The above events were googled and we are thinking there wasnt really much ever happening on this day so well done for coming up with a good Australian fact. Must have been amazing back in 1938 with the War of the Worlds boradcasting though.
Thanks LiB for the cache, great use of Mrs Kookacrews old work place containers too. TNLNSL

In Port Elliott today, great day for caching out to get a few near McLaren Vale before the heat hits later this week. TFTC
Down in what is easily the "Flavour Of The Month" for me this year... The Awesome!, McLaren Vale Wine Region [:x]
Not only for Geocaching but also for sampling the "Product" that this stunning part of SA has to offer {Already demolished a bottle of Sangiovese Rose 2019 from Chapel Hill Winery } [^]
I left home real early with my Deadly Treadly in the back of the GeoMobile so i can finish off the OTD October Series
Rode from Kangarilla Rd in McLaren Vale where i parked the GeoMobile to this the 30th one.... that had more blue wrens than i expected given this awesome area down south here has many of my buddies [The Blue Wrens] [^]

The caching gods had given us a beautiful sunny winters day. So not to look a gift horse in the mouth Debandy and I headed out GPS's in hand and soaked up the sun and a few cache as well.
Thanks for the cache!
Thanks for the cache!
This series was the target, off I set, found all the ones that are still available in good condition unless stated otherwise.
Today I headed to McLaren vale to clean up a bit more of the area and mainly target the OTD series. The weather was crap and not the best day to be out in a bike for 2 hours whilst it’s belting with rain.
Managed to also run into 2ysTassies along the way.
