Description

Welcome to Adelaide Airport. If you enter or depart the airport - the first and or last 2 buildings that you see are Ikea and the AFP (AustralianFederal Police). So beware if you buy a flat pack chair from Ikea you could be arrested by the AFP. But at least you will have a chair to sit on in the lockup... that is after you have put it together. But in all seriousness the entrance is nicely landscaped including beautiful rose gardens.And i thought that GCA cache was needed near the airport.

You are looking for a small cache and parking is plentiful nearby. You will need to bring your own geo writing tool to sign the log and maybe lots of money if you venture in to Ikea..

Welcome to Adelaide for any non locals.

Congratulations to Four-fun for first to find

Caching in the area we found your cache along the way.

Nice hide that took longer to find than it should have.

Found It!
This had become somewhat of a nemesis cache for me. Today was at least visit number 3 to GZ. There was no one else around here on Christmas day which made searching a little easier. But today I got lucky and spotted it in under a minute! A surprisingly well camouflaged hide!

Despite accurate ooordinates it took a few minutes of hunting before this cache, which blended so well into the location, was found. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks dezzabills for the cache.

Friesianess and I were filling up with fuel across the road when I remembered there was a nearby cache I'd been meaning to investigate. We left the car at the service station and dodged across the traffic to GZ. Bit of a hunt but once the GPS settled down, it was quite a quick find.
Getting back across the traffic wasn't so easy. Peak hour seemed to have commenced whilst we cached. In hindsight, it would have been much easier to have driven over and parked! Good cache, in a nice location near, but not too near, to the airport.

We had to pick up a hire car from the airport this morning, so took the opportunity to swing by for a second look at this cache.

Luck was on our side this morning as I located the cache in the first place I felt. Dancing Added our name in the second spot on the log sheet.

Thanks dezzabills.

Noticed this one appear a while ago and the previous DNF, but was in the area today so stopped by to have a look.
I searched for a while and was just about to give up the search when someone walked up and assured me it was still there! So continue the search I did and within seconds put my hand on the prize[^]
Turned out the someone was the cache owner who had just flown all the way from Perth to check on the cache Wink now that's dedication!
Nice to meet dezzabills in the wild and great to get a rare FTF on the cache as well
Cheers & TFTH Dezzabills
