Took the dog for a walk tonight around mozzie lakes, we did a nearby munzee trail and then left this GCA in the nearby rock wall.
Might add a couple of swaps then pop it back out on its journey.

Cache has now been found, relocated and handed off to another local cacher who will move on shortly...
As usual, GCA moveables left at a GC Mega can sit around for a while...look at the number of trackables still listed at any Mega.
Any moveables still listed at the Queanbeyan Mega are currently being rounded up and will be moved on as soon as possible.

We have seen this old friend that came from WA to Vic with us a few months ago on the table of GCA movables at the Clear Waters Mega event.
Spotted on the GCA table at the Clear Water Mega. Great to see a good assortment of moveables sitting here. Hope this one moves on to greener pastures soon.
Thanks for chance to find it.

#GA3653 - 18:45; Spotted the table full of moveables earlier in the afternoon and logged the first of many unfound moveables then. Returned later to log the rest of them before they disperse. This was one of the group that I managed to locate! TFTC Splitty Miller JJCC

Spotted on the table at the Mega Event.
My trip to the Mega was great, found lab caches which while like gadgets are new icons to me. Found some great caches and brought back some neat ideas for new caches in Tasmania.
Join a clan and enter the dragon zone. Clan Phoenix welcomes all new members

Picked up along with quite a few others and they are now all on their way to Bendigo via Echuca over the next couple of days.
I haven’t moved it very far as I expect it to be moved further tonight. If not I will take it to an event this coming weekend.
Thanks for the moveable Splitty Miller JJCC.

Collected this one today from a very convenient spot.
My favourite Quality Streets used to be the Turkish Delight but I don’t think they make that any more.
Expecting this Cache to move along tonight

Hiding out in the wheat-belt. Happy Birthday Geocaching Australia.
Periodically the Geocaching Australia review team checks moveable caches that haven’t been found or moved in over 90 days.
This moveable fits that brief, however reading previous logs it has been removed from the current co-ords and will soon be relocated shortly.

Discovered 'Celebrate Australia Day with Quality Streets' at the Moveable & Mystery Madness Event held in Whiteman Park. The forecast was for rain but we were blessed with good weather for the day. A small but dedicated group of geocachers and a couple of new faces attended and exchanged stories of caches found and missed. Many thanks Splitty Miller JJCC for the cache.

Planning for this trip began in June - we knew we would be heading to Adelaide but which way would we go? This depended on our targets. We looked at our list of unclaimed Dragon Zone trophies and picked out several that we could feasibly collect the required number of finds to qualify for the trophy. We then had to identify caches that would meet our targets and from here it was time to plan a route that would take us past the caches we had identified. Any caches too far off our route were discarded and replaced by suitable alternatives.
All was running smoothly until the Christmas in July game was announced. We would be travelling in the latter part of the game. It was difficult to include this in our target caches as we did not know what was required. Once the game began and we understood what we needed to do we could then add other caches to the target list.
We were just getting our heads, yes all four of them, around this when more Dragon Zone trophies were added. Which ones could we meet and which should we ignore? Do we need to add more GA caches and/or do we need to change our route and our targets? We decided on our target list and then our route and timeline. We had just drawn a line under everything and were about to begin printing our caching booklets, route maps and target lists when caught@work published 23 new caches on the Western Ring Path. Earlier we had decided on the caches in the Edgewater Walk series. If we added the new ones on the Western Ring Path and as many of the CCC series as possible, we could probably reach the required number of caches to qualify for the Dragon Zone trophies “Restraining Order Stalker” (Find 100 DZ caches hidden by the same cacher) and “Obsession!=Insanity” (find 50 DZ caches in a day). As the latter would give us our first Blaze Trophy, it was decided to alter everything to include the CCC series.Four Fun, in South Australia published five puzzle caches that would bring good points in the Christmas in July game. Can we solve the puzzles? A few more adjustments to the route and the caches to find list and we would be off.
Having successfully completed our Melbourne challenges and gained our first Blaze Dragon Zone trophy it was time to focus on the Christmas in July game. We started on the Kenneth Stirling Conservation Park puzzle caches recently published by Four-Fun. With Four-Fun's puzzles found, several of J_&_J's puzzles found and the Christmas in July game over it was time to focus on completing the requirements for a few more Dragon Zone Trophies.
When we knew that there was a possibility that we would have a break from grand parent duties we had planned this slight detour so that we could find both GA and GC caches that would meet the requirements for several Dragon Zone trophies and several GC challenge caches in several states. As we had already visited all states and territories except Western Australia this year it was time for us to hop on a plane and head for Perth, Western Australia.
When we were at home we had noticed that Lazarus68 had been collecting moveable caches during a recent visit to the eastern states. We wondered if Lazarus would be back in the west by the time we visited and if we would have an opportunity to find the moveables that were in his care. So, we contacted Lazarus and the stars did align. We made arrangements to visit and we were able to log finds on quite a few moveable caches. Many thanks Lazarus68 for making these caches available for our visit. In turn, we left another ten moveables in the area which are also now in the care of Lazarus68.

I missed the party on Australia Day but thought I might just get a celebratory choccy! But no, they were all well and truly gone so i took the container with me to dispose of correctly
Have now set up in a position next to the glow of the house with no lights
Dropped by again to discover this moveable and move it on

I was keen to have celebratory chocolate but when I looked, they'd all gone! Never mind, a few good caches were worth celebrating with instead
