Apologies to CO we had a typo, have updated coordinates Very Happy
 
05-Jan-22
No idea where we were supposed to look at this location. The coordinates looked like the middle of a small dam, and there's no Armco barrier visible anywhere along this stretch of road.

We looked along the fence line either side of the dam, but found nothing.

Perhaps there's a wrong number in the coordinates?

I received a notice that a lot of moveable caches had been dropped off in my neighbourhood, so despite the smoke of bushfires, I hopped on my bike and cycled there to make the biggest one find ever of GA moveables Surprised. I left them there, as at present I can't move the caches on, but they are in a snug, dry hide. TFTC thomo31.

24-Aug-19
Came here early just as they were opening the gates to try to find some moveables for my research task. Parked in the car park as lots of people turned up to do their walk etc. Headed up to the top of the Hill to start looking for the moveables hidden on the downward bush trail. None of the walkers came my way but after grabbing the six moveables met a jogger just starting at the lowest point of the trail. I don't think my knee would have allowed me to do that anymore. Found it will move it along soon. Thanks for the moveable. Now off to the CITO.

When I noticed rogerw3 dropped off 14 movables at his usual nice & peaceful & much history here to read, Rookwood cemetery, the temptation was, I couldn’t resist so I did a morning drive to this peaceful place to walk around & pick up all 14 of them in 14 locations. So, once I show these movables to the Hookie’s I will move on to different locations – thanks to the owners of these movables – what a collection & variety of them. Clan Griffin

Travelled north to retrieve a whole bunch of moveables that had become stranded in a broken down car. A good trip resulted in the rescue of 33 caches. This was one of them . Thanks for the cache.
 
30-Jan-19
The game is coming to an end I have been fortunate enough to get to see a last minute cluster of moveabales brought down from Sydney. Even more impressive, they came despite a full car failure.

Thanks

#GA3426 - 16:15; I received a call from Sol de lune about attending the Australia Day Moveable Event 2018 (GA13470) (or should it have been 2019?) at the Tizzana Winery near Ebenezer. I had missed the previous event held there earlier in the month, so jumped at the chance to go today. Little did I know how the day would turn out! We made our way to arrive at the winery right on time, collecting some GC and GCA caches along the way. Reached GZ and found teamMerlin, thomo31, phlphotos and snoopy1976 already in attendance, along with a plethora of moveables. Afterwards though, the car had broken down and remains where we left it, even after assistance from the NRMA Brick Wall teamMerlin kindly provided some sustenance and a lift to the train station, from whence we made our way to the CBD for an unscheduled stopover Whistle After confirming the car was still a no go, we jumped the bus home, but will be back to retrieve said geomobile once it's been fixed Dancing Managed to bag 30 moveables I had not previously logged from the 101 available at the event. This was one of them. TFTC thomo31 Very HappyClan Cerberus

Found this one on the table at the event for Australia Day for the moveables. Thanks for the moveable which was one of 101 that made their way to Ebenezer from far away places to spend some time in the local winery before scattering to new places. Good luck on any further moves

The latest Geocaching Australia game runs from 01-Dec-2018 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2019 23:59:59 AEST

For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to click on a ground tile and reveal what lies beneath.

A moving cache, by nature, may have been moved since you last determined its location. It may have been picked up but not yet rehidden so it's considered 'in-transit'. There is no foolproof method of determining where a cache is simply by the log types that have been placed against the cache.

Found at the Australia Day event at Tizzana
 
26-Jan-19
Saw it at the Australia Day event at Tizzana Winery.
 
26-Jan-19
Called into Tizzana Winery to buy some wine and saw the moveables and the list. The family wanted to continue on so said "Hi" to a few we'd previously met then headed on with some wine. Diolch for the moveable. I didn't pick up any.
 
26-Jan-19
Headed up to Ebenezer with LuckyL10n to attend the Aussie Day event. 45 degree day made for a bit of a fun trip, however it was pleasant in the winery building. A good few hardy souls were in attendance as well as over 100 moveables. Some good conversation with cachers not met before and a good couple of hours was had by all. The trip home was a little different to what was expected but turned out ok....

Thanks for this moveable Thomo31...
 
26-Jan-19
Attended the 'Australia Day Moveable Event 2018' and came face to face with other like minded cachers, one being another lucky (luckyl10n) and 101 moveables in the area. Many thanks to the CO's who have published them over time and others who bought them together for the event.

Found this one at the Australia Day Moveable Event 2018 event held at Tizzana Winery in Ebenezer. Another fantastic turnout at the event run for the current 2018/19 Journey or Destination game being run on Geocaching Australia which saw a total of 101 moveables come together. Thanks for sharing.
