Description
One of our entries in 'Bingo', the transport-themed '12/'13 moving cache race.
kay says this is the only van we'll ever own. This little purple people mover is set to travel the country in this year's moving cache race.
THIS IS A MOVEABLE CACHE - pick it up, take it with you, and hide it somewhere else within two days. Be sure to record accurate coordinates at the new location and log that new location!!! Feel free to enter a hint as well if your hide is a little tricky.
This car begins its journey in Golden Grove, SA and is free to roam anywhere in Australia.

Logs
This geocache appears to be MIA so to stop it clogging the search lists we'll archive it.
A review shows the cache may have been collected from its currently listed co-ords, however it has not been relocated. The previous finder was contacted regarding the cache however it has not been relocated. As a result, we are archiving the cache to stop cachers looking for a cache that is obviously not at the listed co-ords. This is also done to keep the Geocaching Australia database clean and up to date,
If the cache owner can confirm that the cache has be relocated, they can post an unarchive log and the cache will be back in the game.

Reading previous logs, this moveable may still be in location OR may have been found, removed and not relocated yet. We know moveables can sometimes be forgotten / missed / left in the bottom of a caching bag, so a check has been undertaken on this one.

The better half and I went out for a drive in the country picking up some traditional caches and a whole load of moveable ones. The sealed roads that we went on were obviously OK but according to the better half not the gravel and 4wd ones which only confirmed her aversion to going down them in any vehicle.
Picked up these moveables on the way back to the City after visiting York and other places in between.

Time to catch up and log all the moves made for the large number of moveable caches that we have accumulated over the last months.
On the trip out into the Wandoo forrest area with the better half doing some maintenance of my caches after a fire and we dropped off a number of moveable caches along the way.

I was being looked after by Chwiliwr and the better half for the day at their place and whilst there saw a whole big group of moveable caches that were being organised for a move somewhere by my grandparents so played with them for a bit before they were packed up. (Those that were not too fragile to be played with.)
Thanks for the cache.

'Found' this cache in the hands of tbh after Gwiber 'dropped' it in Bridgetown.

Chwiliwr and the better half took me on a GCA caching trip to Bunbury and further south to pick up some moveables and do some other GCA caches along the way.
This moveable was one of the ones collected on the trip.

Now in the hands of another geocacher, awaiting road-trip south.
My 2WD could only make it so far, walking remainder 360m up the rocky road to the top. Good view from up here, including southern end of Super Pit. Left a gnome behind here in its place.
Hit the road shortly after sunrise, into a forecast 37C day, finding a total 19 caches; 15 of these being dragonZone thus earning "Ides of March" trophy; with two FTF Trig's.
Thank you ma77hew & kay

Moved back down the hill to this quiet spot, should be found soon I hope!
Found today in Roger's cache bag. I knew something was afoot when he changed our usual lunch date from Penrith to Lidcombe!
We did make it to lunch in Parramatta a bit later.

Has three others for company in the Kangaroo Valley.
Found on a picnic table on a warm Autumn afternoon. Many thanks to Black Bunny & just a cacher for the swap.
Down in the hands of a local cacher for some fun by the sea.
Found with a group of others. Will take them for a drive this weekend

Searching for gnomes but this was with one. To keep them together or not.... That is the question hahaha
After a short wait, MA77HEW'S MINIVAN is on the move again. Why should the Gnomes have all the fun?
#GA720 - 22:00; In Melbourne with Sol de lune and Albida33 to attend the Melbourne Mega and associated events and activities, as well as a bit of caching of course. After a busy day out on the trail, I collected this one from A33 to continue its journey. TFTC MA77HEW & KAY

Sorry the van has been driving around the Riverland for several months and is now parked under a tree near a dam.
Wasn't sure if this would still be here with lots of visitors to the area, but "yay" it was. Labchick and I have both logged the cache and I have picked it up to move it along. Will try to place it in the next few days.

Moved on today in the lead up to a BIG GCA EVENT. Should be safe.
Managed to locate this one as hubby was trying to convince me to go on a ...... km 4x4 track to locate a Trig.
These looked like a quicker bet.
There is a GCA event nearby next week see if we can get you moved along in time.

Oops, moved on while on the way to Adelaide but forgot to log. In place with an angel. Travel far little van.
Been stuck here way too long. I'm taking this minivan in my minivan on a road trip back to SA.
Left this one in place as it's been safe here (it almost eluded me)
This was the last of the three new moveables in this area for me this morning. It took two bites of the cherry and a read of the hint , but I finally got there at 09:25.
After signing the log, I replaced the cache where I'd found it.
TNLNSL. Thanks ma77hew & kay.

Dropped off on a warm morning. Thanks for this one. I DO have a minvan so I liked this a lot.
Part of a crew I picked up here.
A cool gyro copter was being found flown close by.
I was soon scooping here after a rather intense search.

This one is back in the game and ready to be moved again
I spotted a cluster of caches with (mostly) numbers that I needed.
"Nobody else would be stupid enough to go and get them on such a hot day" I thought to myself. So I waited until lunchtime and headed out to a spot that I had visited before, in the heat....
I left this cache in place of another that I moved on.

I like it when you don't have to chase a movable cache too hard.

Moved around to the Southern parklands. Make sure you pick up the right cache. The other one has no identification on it.
