A quick find that led us to a nice spot to quickly scoff down some baked goods from our apparent favourite bakery in Port August (French Hotbread, since we're basically regulars here in town the last couple months and been here each time as well as Port Pirie).
Found with [@Hakentek](http://coord.info/PRYJGX8). Photos are spoilers.

Found it TFTC. Cache in good condition. If walking down the ocean side please be careful syringes are about, not suitable for geo kid to roam
It's not in the train end! Spent a lot longer than I should have over there!
A re think on where it could be and found in 2 min. Good hide.

Took us ages to find but extremely well hidden. Once we noticed it’s area we were right into it
Wow after extending our search Mr Juju made the find, about 10 mtrs from GZ! Very exciting as hasn’t been found for a while. With HRH54 TFTC
Took awhile but with 4 sets of caching eyes and extending our search by 10m “Found It” rang out Woo Woo With Juju54 TFTC
As we wander the great land seeing the sights, this is one of the caches we have done.
Thanks to Celestial88 for placing the cache for us to find.

Hi there Celestial88. We are on holiday and currently in South Australia on our way home to the west (Perth). While travelling we found this cache after a short search - we had hunted this cache in February but failed (and didn't log our DNF then either), but found it this time and the container and log are in good condition. TN, LN, SL. Thanks to Celestial88 for this cache - our find 7337
Just love being around trains and history
Easy find, Thankyou

We finally found it third time lucky after asking for help a little difficult to get to though.
Gone caching at the end of the June Long Weekend with JEM, JacktheMonkey, and Sebastbat.
Lots of people here for a Monday stroll. We all hunted around and soon JEM had the cache for all to sign

After looking for half an hour I discussed this cache hide with previous finders and realised it had been taken. Replaced from the resources of the Payhero.
Easter 2020 sees SA hosting the next Easter big event, GeoVenture 2020 at Millicent. GC82DAN. Check it out. We would love to see you there.

2nd DNF for the day...spent quite a time looking and identified a possible hide but no found no cache. TFTC
On a roadtrip and visitimg Port Augusta. Took a while to find thia cache, but finally I saw something suspicious. Thanks for the cache!
Really lovely afternoon stroll in balmy weather. Co ords were a few metres out but clues helped. Thanks for the hide.
Made a Friday stroll to this one in horrid winds. Found the quickest access point to this one as we didn't want to be outside any longer than necessary. And of course we couldn't find it. Mr Beetle stayed to keep looking while I went back to the van to read a bit more about it.
I was just reading when I looked up and Mr Beetle indicated that he had found it!! How often does that happen????
It was the hide type we were expecting so don't know if we were just cache blind at first or maybe the weather today made us too cold to function.
Thanks.

This one took longer than it should have. Eventually found in the kinda obvious page - not on the ground!!
This cache was found on the epic trip to the west to find GC4078 Traditional Cache Twilite. The goal was not only this and other caches, but sand, surf, flight and photography - a perfect combination.
Thanks to Celestial88 and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet! [:o)]

We are on the homeward leg of the annual sun chasing trip. Spent a day around Port Augusta while the caravan was repaired. TFTC.
Sneaky! But we found it. With grandchildren en route from Canberra to Uluru. Thanks.
Got away for a night so we could do a hike that happened to be in the same park that Jay Wetherall was being carried out of on a stretcher. We saw all the emergency vehicles and had no idea what was going on. Anyway the hike was good, only damage was I dropped the iPad and busted the screen. Found lots of eclipse tins and one medium size cache. We had fun exploring our old stomping ground.
A short stroll from car to gz
Hint
No need to go down stay on top
Well placed cache

Whoops missed logging this one.

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Working in Port Augusta for the day and after a particularly frustrating day decided to go and find a cache or two after dinner. Headed out and this was the last of the caches for the night. At 9pm on a Monday night there was only two wandering muggles so that was easy to deal with. However the search was almost as frustrating as my day. GPS wanted me in one area but a thorough search drew nothing. So widened the search area considerably and was eventually rewarded with a cache. Phew. Signed log and replaced. Now back to accommodation and sleep.

decamped and slowly, very slowly making my way to whyalla. more a Saturday stroll and a not so quick find.
Finally found this one The Blue unhappy face is now a Yellow Smiley My GPS wanted me to look on the beach side rail-head of the actual railway line but that is on railway property so i dismissed that and widened the search and came up the plural of "Donald"... you know who

In Memory of Pop - today was a sad day for the team as Geomum said goodbye to her dad and the geokids said goodbye to their pop after attending his funeral today in Port Augusta. So, after the business was done, geodad took geolad for a walk to 'heal the soul' - geocaching....
After a bit of searching around we were about to call it a DNF when geodad thought he knew where it had to be it was just a matter of finding it. An organised search followed and the cache was soon in hand. TFTC. and the welcomed relief from the events of the day.
Goodbye and God bless Pop.

Fri 1 Dec 2017. No luck for me here today. Looked extensively for about 5 minutes or so. Oh well, hope it's still there and it's just me [B)] TFTH Celestial88
