Description
Went to WA!
Maybe a "Little Piggy" series will eventuate from this moveable. Who knows?
This little pink pig will enjoy his flight across Australia and land in my new home of Western Australia.
He is free to travel anywhere he likes.
Just remember to update the hint when you move it so that it will be an easy find for others.
Happy caching!

Still with the last finder....hopefully will be moved on soon.
Looks like this little piggy and his rock have gone to the big bad wolf in the sky. Well, at least as far as our eyes could see.
Collected this little piggy. He is safe and out of the cold for the moment.TFTC

After dropping off Mrs Frenchy Leapfrog (https://geocaching.com.au/cache/ga3919) in the Logan River Parklands, the Moveable Uber continued north. Max had been regaling our house guests with stories of the time we met Sambuccasam and This Little Piggy wanted to meet her too. We travelled to where we saw her last time but she wasn't home.
When I asked This Little Piggy what she wanted to do, she said that she would sit here and wait for her. I said that I thought she might get cold and wet, but she said Fiddlesticks, she'd be fine and settled in amongst a pile of sticks.
Good luck This Little Piggy.

Chocolate.... did someone say chocolate? I didn't find chocolate but I did find a new friend, This Little Piggy.
I asked Little Piggy if she wanted to hang out with me and my friends until her next stop. I explained I count all sorts of creatures as friends - bears, puppies, cows, gnomes, and even a couple of frogs. There are all sorts in my Krew. Some are with me all the time, others just hang around for a while until they are ready to travel again. Little Piggy, said she'd like to stay for a while and hopped into the backpack to save her legs. So she'll stay with us for a little while then recommence her travels soon.
Thanks for the cache.

The Gnome Tree. Like so many visiting caches before him, Piggy is waiting at the Gnome tree. Great views of a well kept park, and people enjoying themselves, and a bit protected from the elements. A perfect spot for a shy piggy to call home for a little while. Like most GCA caching up at the Gold Coast - very close to the hide, a single lost shoe was found. I'm not sure what is is about lost shoes and GCA caches. Last year, it looks like we found Cinderella's slipper, and a thong possibly belonging to Prince Charming. This shoe would have fit a one year old. Did they have a child?
As a geocacher, and acquiring the habit for looking for hidden things - I did find a few more interesting things that might entice a certain Bear to go for a stroll in the park. I found no fewer than 4 easter eggs hidden in trees on my way back to the car. I imagine someone had an Easter hunt on Sunday but not all eggs were accounted for. Since piggy's don't eat chocolate, I'm sure someone else will sniff it out!

What a strange place for This Little Piggy to haunt - a historical cemetery! I think I know why she's here though. It's also the starting point to a very old, amazing multi cache. So it was lovely to visit this place again to pick up a cache of a different kind today. Little Piggy was quite happy to accept a lift. I made it quite clear that we were headed to the Gold Coast, and the traffic would probably be terrible being easter holidays. But she was quite OK with this, so jumped in the passenger side of the car. As the summer weather was quickly disappearing, Piggy expressed an interest in a vacation on the Gold Coast. I knew just the place....

Took This Little Piggy for a drive to the coast.......nothing like the smell of a Service Centre to get a pig moving. Last spotted going into the plantings.

Mr Pigglesworth is now with me looking for a new location to hide in and move on in his adventures,
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks for hiding a geocache. Without hiders there are no finders.

Feeling really cranky, you travel all this this way to collect caches and people don't log that they have taken them, or they've had them in their possession for months. No consideration. Ruins the game!!! and it's unfair. ..... i'm just cranky because there are supposed to be 86 movables in the ACT to date and I can't access the majority of them and I'm fining this to be the case most of the time. Right or wrong from what I can see I can see why cachers don't bother too much about Geocaching Australia caches.
Found another cache at the same location. Gotta be a bonus.

All of a Sudden, my inbox filled with Alerts that a bunch of moveables were nearby!
Could it be?! I went outside, and as I did, a car bearing caches came by and dropped them at GZ! How good is that!

#GA932 - 10:15; I saw a posse of old and new moveables had arrived in Canberra and have been keeping an eye out for them. I missed my chance to grab them on the first drop, but got the good oil early this morning and headed out to grab them. TFTC fluffyfish

A trip down the mountains and then down the coast for delivery to the local cacher, don't bother looking this is gone already.
Found in the hands of Rogerw3 who kindly delivered this & nine others having travelled by train - a 12 hour round trip which is still in progress. Very much appreciated.
Great to find a new moveable in these parts!
Thanks to phlphotos for the transportation!
Moved to Leura with some friends. Good luck on your journeys
Lovely discovery of lots of moveables in Windsor today. Beautiful day for a spot of caching with Lucky1955, alnic39 & phlphotos.

Well, the piggy had a flying visit to Woolongong, but as our visit to the area would soon prove, we were woefully underprepared for the amount of time needed to get to where we needed to be. As such, we finally dedicated a morning to re-hiding moveables in a couple of locations around South Sydney.
This cache is currently located at the start of a nice walk through The Glen Bushland Reserve, Bonnet Bay. It's been hidden on the low side of the track, just to the left of the concrete thingy as you head down the incline.

It would be great if you could take the pig to the gong. I was living there at the time I created the cache.
I seem to remember coming to a location very, very close to this spot to find a travel bug hotel many years ago. As usual, the cache and all travel bugs within mysteriously disappeared. No such shenanigans with this little porker though, as it was all safe and well in it's hiding spot.
If it's okay with the cache owner, we'll hang on to this one for a week or so. We are planning a road trip to Woolongong, then Sydney in a weeks time, and would like to give this traveller a boost to the East coast of Australia.
Thanks fluffyfish.

Collected from the area while completing maintenance on some of our caches. This little pig has kept company with our Frog's head for far too long...
Now enjoying a rest in the hills along with a frog for company.
Dropped off the piggy in a nice little park in Greenwood. Safe travels!
Woohoo!! I finally managed to get my hands on this slippery little pigbgy!
It was pouring with rain as I jumped out of the car and made a quick dash for the cache, grabbed it and ran back to the car. I will move him on to a new location soon.
Thanks for the cache fluffyfish!

This little piggy had roast blue tongue.
Amazing how these GCA caches keep turning up on my doorstep.
There must be a GCA fairy out there somewhere.
Will move on shortly.

Hrmph! This is the second time I've come to find this cache (in different locations) and couldn't find it. I'll assume that Machman has already picked it up...
Dropped this guy off for The Machman to fall over!
Im sure he will be moved on soon!

Poor little piggy he surely has been in too much sun! He has lost an eye
Picked him up as we knew another cacher who was anxious to make his acquaintance!

I was doing a day trip east of the city to specially come for this cache and some FTF chances further east. You can tell he has been here for some time as one side of him has faded badly.
Will drop him soon in the metro are with the remaining GCA moving caches that I was lumped with at the mega.

I was visiting Wamenusking Nature Reserve when this little piggy slipped from my grasp, headed off past the reserve sign and disappeared into the bushes. Hopefully someone else can find it
Hmmm I was chasing R0gue all day it would appear. Too late for this one too! Not Really I only went past on the freeway on the way home from Mandurah. Was running very late for work so no time to stop here today. Good thing as he was already gone it would seem.
