TFTC. Used other people's comments to find it. But a nice stop en route to Adelaide.
checked 0m and had a look around and didn't want to enter the garden so was going to pull the pin and leave when I saw an interesting sight in the other garden bed. Perfect found the cache. TFTCSL the kids loved a stretch of the legs at the park on our way to inaminka via Cameron corner.
No find was made here. Spent quite a while looking but in the end felt a bit too conspicuous so left.
Still have that sickly smell on my hands from my search here despite washing them three or four times.
Thanks.

Thanks Spaceinvaders.
twice i came. twice the house owner was watering the front lawn so slooooowly with a hose. next trip i guess.
{Sat 10 /3/18, morning} Being not fond of garden bed hides and the added exposure, coupled with swarms of small black ants made this one a challenge to find. It is probably a really simple hide but I was not lucky today. I will return with a better idea of where to focus my search TFT challenge spaceinvaders9
Found with Freddo on a trip to the West Coast. Lots of galahs screaming overhead. Thanks spaceinvaders9.
A quick and easy park and grab.

Apologies for the late log ... life interrupted my logging. I hate it when that happens!
Mrs Gizmo escaped for a two day caching trip to Port Augusta with Dr Owl and CPwanderer.
Day 2 had us making a few finds before breakfast and a few more before lunch. Then we made our way home, caching along the way.
A bit of a search in a location where we felt exposed to muggles. The find was eventually made. Quickly signed the log and made our exit.

Felt very exposed as I searched with Dr Owl and Gizmos Gang!! ................ we found it after a short search! Thanks for the hide!
Not owl's favourite kind of cache - she doesn't like searching garden beds. Too exposed and too much potential damage, so thank goodness Gizmo eventually found it.
We turned up in Port Augusta with a long list of unfound caches of which this was the first one, just as we got within 10 metres the Magellan 710 stopped working and flatly refused to restart. After several restarts and a soft reset it still wouldnt run so we searched anyway and eventually found the cache. Needless to say our long day caching was cut very short..
Alice trip 2017. Day 5. With Sol de Lune and LuckL10n we started caching around Pt Augusta and Stirling before heading to Whyalla via a few of the short trails.
Thanks.

#6455 - 08:45; Day 7 of the Alice Mega Road Trip with Sol de lune and albida33, so most logs were signed S.A.L. as a result. After a night in Port Augusta, today's plan was to cache in and around Port Augusta and Stirling North before heading south towards Whyalla for a couple of nights and produced 88 finds along with only 4 DNFs. This was our first stop in Stirling North and we made a quick find. TFTC spaceinvaders9
On the road to the Alice Springs Mega with LuckyL10n and Albida33. We headed through Burra and Port Pirie before arriving in Port Augusta for the trek up the highway. Collected a good number of caches and all were found with no issues and the logs were soon signed. (Some logs were signed as S.A.L. to save space.)
Thanks for the cache and fun in getting to it and finding it.

I have been guilty of neglecting the pushbike on me tours of OZ in the past
So I am determined to wear it out a bit quicker and go chasing caches on it more often [^]
Today the surrounds of Porter Guster gave me an opportunity to do just that !!
And I sallied forth across the causeway to Stirling North
Where a neat little park in the newer part of towne was located.
And with the pushie leaning against a bush,
I wandered a few metres to GZ,
and found a cache looking back at me
TFTC,
a quick find for sure !!

Port Augusta Day2
A few new caches in the town since we last passed through here. Today we drove around Yorkey's Crossing then found a few others on the way home.
We found the listed co-ords spot on.

Hi there spaceinvaders9.
We found your cache **"A toy in the park"** at 10:59:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 15886).
We cached around the Stirling North area today. On our trek we found a wide variety of container types. & ended up finding 11 caches with 1 DNF's.
Thanks for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache EXACTLY where the GPS (set to the original coordinates) said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.
