Logs
As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.
i found this perfect hollow in a tree where the gps told me to go. had to stand on my school bag but the hollow was empty
After always rushing past on Portrush road, we were finally in the area casually caching and thought we would have a look here. Saw a couple of obvious hiding place (one more so than the other) but both empty. After seeing the multitude of other DNFs on this, we didn't put anymore effort into it.
It could be us, but we only found one area that fit in well with hiding a cache (and just tall enough for Mum Pirate to reach)... but with terrian of 1 (for wheelchair access), we broadened our search with no luck.
On a quiet Easter Sunday, we found GZ with no muggles around at all. Even after a good search, there was only one really good caching spot and it was empty.
Thanks for bringing us here anyway.

Looked high and low for this one while dodging muggles nearby...
But nothing could be found...
Will try again next time. TFTC

Spotted obvious hiding spot straight away but had to wait for the swimmer muggles to vacate before and after grabbing the cache. TFTF
The first time I worked out where the cache was but was under supervision of a muggle who wasn't going to budge for a significant time. This morning there were muggles but they were too busy concentrating on what they were doing, so at an opportune moment.... TFTC.
Thanks for this cache we really enjoyed it! Quick and fun cache We were stumped at first but we kept our heads up! TNLN
took me quite a while to find this one....eventually found it in the obvious spot though

The area was quiet so I had no problem looking around and finding the cache. TFTC.
Didn't find this one nor the Kindy Kids both place by Anja. Maybe try later. Muggled?
Geomum had to be told twice to look ere by the geokids - finally looked again bs there it was! TFTC
Found with Dennisc52. A quick cache on the way home from the event christmas by the lake.
Found this one on our way home from the Christmas event at Rymill Park, with Fishing Pole Ninja. TFTC.
My 6th, and thankfully last, DNF in a row. I don't know how I missed this one, but I am going to blame the heat.
I was making this way too difficult. I walked away ready to give up but turned around one last time. WOWEE. There it is! TFTC. TNLNSL
Found this in the GPS and had forgotten to log it till a month later oops.
- was an easy find, TFTC

After a quick look around I went back to the car and read some of the previous logs to point me in the right direction.
My hand could not fit into the hole even if there was a spider in there, so a stick was used to coach the cache out of it hiding spot.

In America we have spiders like Redbacks called Black Widows. They are a bit bigger and really cool looking with a bright red hourglass shaped marking on their large jet black abdomen. Didn't see either today at the cache site. But I did reach and grab without much inspection. Maybe I got lucky not to get bit by anything. But it was a pretty easy find.

Lovely area. Hide bit too high for munchkins so used a stool.
Was not going to slip the hand in with other logs referring to red backs.
None seen today but swim school was at change over.
Log book needs replacing. TFTC

A quick find on Christmas day with my muggle nephew while we waited for Christmas lunch to finish cooking. Thanks for bringing back to the area where I first lived in Adelaide. TFTC
Found with linFox and rubai on our quick trip to Adelaide.
Nice little micropark, getting used to them now, they jump out from nowhere when you round a corner! Found the cache without any troubles. no critters today, and no one really around ,we got here just after everyone had gone home for the day.
Thanks, Jezzza Xtreme.

Nice obvious spot. No spiders today and no muggles at the time I got this one but a minute later carloads of kids turned up to beat the heat in the swimming pool. TFTC!!!
This cache brought back so many memories spent in the pool as a child. Isn't it amazing just where you will put your hands in seach of a cache!! TFTC
As a member of the Gangsters who invaded Adelaide over the weekend, we found this cache after a short search. We had to wait for a teacher to finish his smoke prior to grabbing this cache. Thanks for bringing us here.

Found this cache with FarmerFrentzen, The Rats and Steeba on our Adelaide invasion trip. A bit of a juggle between muggles but we got there in the end.
Thanks Anja for the cache.

Swampy and myself had visited previously but 2 little old ladies sat right near GZ scared us off. Big brave men that we are.
Today was different and the cache was found and signed quite easily.
I will admit to a hint from the owner at the pub dinner though.

Great find with no site of muggles. Didn't think it would in that spot. Avoided checking the hole for quite some time before giving up.
A quick find with no-one around on Sunday at lunchtime. Didn't know this little park was there. When Mrs S was a girl you could drive straight through to the swimming pool. We used to come down here for swimming pool carnivals.
thanks Anja

A nice easy cache when noone is around at 6.45am.
No. 99 in the rush to beat 'oldfrankos' to the Ton.
Looks like this morning might be the time to crack 100 finds.

Riding down the street, we turned left into what appeared to be private property, so we turned around and headed off to the next cache. While waiting for traffic, I saw members of the public wandering through what I thought was the private area, so we did a U turn, and parked. It would have to be the easiest find today. It would have been a shame to miss out on the smiley.
Find number 19 at 1610 hrs.

Found while on a caching road trip with Konie. Very clever cache notes and a fun cache. Thanks.
Found with Kiwi Explorer on our Victoria and South Australia caching adventure.
Nice and quiet location today, must have timed it just right as I think it would get busy at certain times.
