Replaced cache today as it seems to be missing. Please use stealth when retrieving and replace carefully with clue inside. Happy cacheing.
I remember having trouble at some of the *KidsPlay* caches several years ago, and now seeing a few more have sprung up. My disfortune continued at this location, and I had a good search around GZ and in the bush, but no cache was forthcoming. There did appear to be some kids play items in the bush however. Given a few DNFs, it may need a CO check. Thanks anyway josan08 for the cache placement.----------A trip visiting Adelaide from Brisbane for the [The Great Leap Forward](http://coord.info/GCA1DNA) Mega event!I arrived Wednesday 28/02/2024 evening ready for Leap Day on Thursday, and stayed with family across the weekend, before returning on Monday 4/03/2024 morning. Previous Adelaide trips are spent with family and friends, but targeted geocaching was this trip's objective, and I attempted to target unique cache types (virtuals, EarthCaches, Wherigos and letterbox hybrids), attractive D-T combinations, high Favourite Point caches, and the occasional pre-2003 oldie, acknowledging that I had found many cherished oldies whilst residing in Adelaide.In addition to Mega central in Beverley/Hindmarsh, my trip included visits as north as Clare, to Aldinga and Sellicks Beach to the south, and the Adelaide Hills (Hahndorf, Uraidla) to the west. In true South Australian style, I ticked off the three closest wine areas to Adelaide (Barossa, Clare Valley, and McLaren Vale). Additional highlights included Barossa vineyard meanderings, boating to Adventure Island in Outer Harbor, drain exploration via [The Shadowlands](https://coord.info/GC18AZY), beach walks of Port Willunga and Sellicks Beach, enjoying a beer at Willunga, and experiencing the Fringe Festival in Adelaide's east end.Today on 29/02/2024 Leap Day, it was an extremely early start joining [gridge98](https://coord.info/PRGKDMY) to drive north to attend Clare's morning event. As the sun rose, we meandered back to Adelaide via Auburn, Saddleworth, Peters Hill, Tarlee, and Gawler, and I then proceeded solo visiting targeted geocaches in Adelaide's north around Mawson Lakes. A couple of targeted geocaches in North Adelaide's park lands with [gridge98](https://coord.info/PRGKDMY), and I then headed east to Stepney and Toorak Gardens, before visiting Mega HQ. The day's remainder was spent catching up with old geocaching friends, geocaching, gadget caching, and closing-out the day with [The Side Event](http://coord.info/GCAH07T) dinner.Adventure Labs visited included: [Adelaide Icon Tour with Neobatrachus Pictus](https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/e4e6daf2-4904-4f32-9a49-3308a1d7a075); [Hidden History of Charles Sturt Council](https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/f1f49ce0-0345-4bb0-9cf6-f1ff813d80d9); [Sporting Adelaide](https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/746734fb-eab7-4058-8072-922a43bdc332); [The Great Leap Forward Gadget Caches](https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/a2d616d0-5583-4663-a70c-605c6a88c956); and [Visiting South Australia's Special Places](https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/44b6d461-0b3b-43b5-adf1-1c29f61766b7).
No luck for me today. Searched for 10 minutes and then searched a little more. Thanks for bringing me here regardless.
Had a quick look, didn't get anything apart from a mosquito bite and some pine needles in my hair
Out after work to collect a cache or two as I hit day 88 in my sequence of 100 for GC3BWKZ
A quick find, sign and return here today

I had a DNF earlier so I still needed a cache so I swung by here for this one.
I didn't feel very comfortable near a public toilet, near a kids playground... with big houses feeling like they were looking down on me.
Thankfully the cache was a quick find and I could hightail it out of there.
Name is in the log book and then off like a fish milkshake.

I heard something about a badge level thingy for writing longer logs... so feel to ignore from this point onwards.
Thanks for going to the effort to prepare, hide and submit this geocache for me to find, another smiley for my geomap.

A quick find after this morning’s breakfast event. Possibly best not done on bin day, which is today. All quiet at GZ. Grass needs mowing!
Thanks for the cache and the series josan08.

I’ve seen a cache like this before so it was a quick find. My apologies, I accidentally tore the plastic bag a little bit so may need replacing before the log gets damp. TFTC.
Staying at a caravan park at Windsor Gardens and enjoying exploring the area . This was one we targeted and found. Thanks
Awesome thanks for the Find and this was mine and my daughters first find
First find of today! TFTC (I have seen lots of photos on here that spoil the cache so please do not include spoilers of the cache please! )
Very quiet morning at GZ. Black and White Warblers are still at it after their victory yesterday.
Woo Hoo. Finally found one of these. Gorgeous day for a walk and some caching. It's a shame I couldn't complete the others. Looks like it could have been fun to solve, judging from what I saw in here.

Quick park and grab here, being a hide I recognised! All these sweet little parks tucked into the suburbs, who knew?! TFTC
Stealth needed, lots of muggles. Quick find with the little geo cacher today. We like to pretend we are looking for bugs...that’s our decoy
Yay. Found it on the way home from work in a park and area that I have never visited before. . Another fun adventure, many thanks for the hide. A familiar hide type (I have many sourced locally .
GeoVenture Mega Event at Millicent, still looking forward to it!! A new date has been proposed for October 2021 now.

Out and about with my wheeled geobuddy on this lovely fine day. A quick find. TFTC left a Twinkle Star
After struggling to find for ages last time, I found it in 1 second this time. Funny how that works.
On the way home from work this afternoon I had some time to kill so decided to make a few detours and find some caches, this cache took a bit of searching but found it all in good condition.
Thanks for the cache

I was in the area filling holes in my DT matrix and saw this one still green. The search was a lot quicker than expected. Still it’s not in danger of being muggled.
Log not weather proofed so when I replaced the cache I added a bag as I had one.

After heading to a morning coffee event to socialise and say goodbye to the Kiwi geocachers, I decided to head out for a bit of a cache afterwards. It was an enjoyable morning as I managed to pick up numerous finds, including some I had dnf’d before. All caches were found in good condition.

Found with fluffymaxi. It took a while to get a sat lock as I seemed to be in a mobile data black hole, but eventually narrowed in on GZ and as soon as I saw the camo I knew where the cache was.

Fourth Evidence cache was required and this was it. Found on a nice sunny winters Sunday afternoon, nice for hunting caches. Found and log signed. TFTC
Identified this cache as having an evidence icon that I require to get the next souvenir in the Mystery at the Museum challenge. I don't have much luck with the KidsPlay series but noted that this one had been found by several other cachers over the weekend so thought it might be a good one to do on the way to work this morning and thus also check off my cache for the day as well.
Arrived in darkness, once I took my head out of the branches of the tree and headed round to the other side I made a quick find of a nicely hidden cache.
TFTC josan08 + Wessarah, maybe one day I will get this series complete, a couple are on my ignore list for now, so we shall see! Now to identify some fingerprint caches,.

Needing 6 cache finds for thee day to achieve the 10 cache finds per calendar day challenge and 1 puzzle find for the puzzle every calendar day I jumped on the deadly treadly and headed north.
This was an easy find, thanks josan & Wessarah.
