Description
A moveable cache to celebrate the moving Olympic flame
The rings were composed of five interlocking rings, coloured blue, yellow, black, green, and red on a white field, known as the "Olympic rings". The symbol was originally designed in 1912 by Baron Pierre de Coubertin, co-founder of the modern Olympic Games.
As the Olympic flame gets closer to its destination for the 2016 Rio Olympics, we are releasing this moveable as a celebration to the games.

A quick find by mr sharnie's tribe on his way to work. The 2020 Olympics would have been finishing around about now if it'd been able to go ahead, what a strange year this one has been! We'll move this cache on again in a couple of days. Thanks for the cache
Wont be celebrating any games this year so on the move again.
New moveable near by so took a little trip along Lobster Creek Road and soon had found it. Noticed that there was another one that we had not seen before close by. Couldn't leave without collecting it. Now have Olympic Rings but no games to take them to. Will have them out again soon.
A day around Northern Tassie to collect 29 moveables in total.
Some hadn't been found for quite awhile.
Tftc teamMerlin...cheers ST.
