Description
Almost a driveby.
You are looking for a small black Sistema box, hidden in a park next to the road. The nearby buildings could be busy at times, especially during the summer months. If you have any spare cash on you when you visit we are sure that the station occupants would gratefully relieve you of it. Also try the local wineries if you're that way inclined.

The most satisfying find of an afternoon of caching with Glo18.
We were discouraged by the last DNF, but thought "Why not give it a go."
After much fussing about under big trees which disrupted GPS communications, aligning building side with trees and such, I thought I had the right area, decided which side of things I'd hide a cache on, and after a fair bit of fruitless poking around, found the it right before my soon to be delighted eyes.
All is in excellent nick.
Many thanks for the cache of my day STANLEY.

Now this was a fun hunt..... No hint was a bit scarey ... Especially after half an hour of fruitless searching. But Whheels squawked suddenly (I thought Snake!) and there it lay supine in its needles.....
Got to within 100m but found that it was in the middle of roadworks with trucks and "workers" everywhere so we decided to give it a miss.
Will try another time.

Another cache found on our way back from Willunga. The cache and contents were in excellent condition considering it had not been found for over 12 months. We left it tucked away safely as we had found it.
Thanks for the cache Stanley

Found It!
Quick find in a nice little town I've never been to before! Always nice to find a GCA cache to!

It was hard to believe that this hasn't been found in over two years, the cache was exposed, yet still intact.
Found easily. Well hidden since it has been unfound since 2008. The last finder must have been in a rush as forgot to sign the log.

All was quiet here today and the cache was found easily. Pondered over the chain around the tree as I left. Thanks stanley.
A quick and easy find on a warm day. No action here today which is a good thing. TNLNSL. TFTC

Found the cache sitting in its spot. Hid it with (slightly) more camauflage. TNLN. Thanks for the cache!
Found the cache - no problem. Lovely country area. No swap. Thank you for organise the cache and hunt.
Another After Work Caching Adventure with EmZee Wild'rs.
At least one of us uploads GCA caches! Easy find even with terrible sat lock at GZ! TNLN

Found this one w/ my travelling companion, Team Langy! Have often driven home this way lamenting the fact that no caches were nearby - guess I should have checked GCA... TFTF
Time for one last drive-by on our way home. Could not believe we are only the third to find! It makes us very dissapointed to see the lack of interest in GCA caches here in SA. A cache is a cache is a cache. We found the container completely exposed, but no muggle activity present. Maybe even muggles don't like Aussie caches??? Anyhow, we enjoyed the chance to stop off in this peaceful quiet spot. Took the mondo figure, left a black lanyard. Thanks Stanleys for the chance to log another quality GCA hide.
Took the geokid out again today (last day of holidays) YAY!! To check on some of our nearby cache. A good opportunity to nail this one finally.
An easy find (unlike Clare & Don). TNLNSL
Thanks Stanleys

Had work nearby this morning so was very happy to see this cache pop up just a couple km from there.
A nice easy find in a very peaceful location that wasn't at all where I had expected!
Cheers,
TFTH.
