I didn't quite get to this cache today. I got about half way before I was confronted with a fairly large boggy section of track. I was just negotiating the most effective way through when the heavens opened up. I had three DNF's so far today, and the pouring rain was the straw that broke the camels back. I will return for a proper look in the future.
In the area so took a short stroll and picked up a heap of moveables
This was one of them
Will move it along soon
Cheers

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 . I left them there, as at present I can't move the caches on, but they are in a snug, dry hide. TFTC alnic39.

On the way home and dropped off some moveables to a regular drop point to place them back in play. All good to go and ready to find.

Moved to Sackville / Ebenezer at the back of Tizzana. I heard there was a gathering for a card night
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.

I was going to pick this one up, while I was here to log the SideTracked cache. but then I realised it had already been picked up. I didn't check any more, as I suspect it will be the same for all of them.
Found in the hands of HansJJ – nice to see this - thanks

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.

Moved up the mountains for the local geocacher to find.
Moved to the railway station as going on a trip. Don't look here as part of a swap.
Picked up this bunch once the all the visitors left town, it being the first Sunday of the month & traffic hectic. Thanks to Black Bunny & Just a cacher for the drop off.

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.
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

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.

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 to all the CO's for the caches...

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.

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.

Out for a drive with the better half collecting some more moveable caches from north of the river this time.
This one was also well and covered and took a bit of scrounging to find it after my tablet finally settled on one ground zero instead of many.

Doing some fishing off the rocks, keeping dry inside a plastic bag, close to path.
Perhaps 3m above sea level. Spoiler photo available upon request.

Had a bit of a look for this and should have been an easy find but had to abandon the search when some muggles turned up.
Might still be there but no luck today.
