Touring Australia having left Perth in late February we are leisurely touring South Australia after having attended Oz Mega. Big Grin

Today was a quieter day for us touring with iluvtrekking. We headed out from Coobowie to, Port Giles, Wool Bay, Stansbury and Port Vincent before returning to Coobowie.

The weather was threatening at one point, but generally we had the best possible weather and company. We saw some awesome views and extremely grateful for seeing some highlights that Yorke Peninsula has to offer.

Pulled up in the geo cruisers here to see a lone male wandering about on the phone holding a gpsr. Has to be a cacher so we bounded out and introduced ourselves to The White Dog Gang then located the cache.

On the road with FelixII exploring the Yorke Peninsula.

Today was to be a casual trip along some of the eastern beaches, a bit of lunch and a bit of caching. This was one of the caches that we happened on during our travels.

As we drove up we saw someone who looked suspiciously like a cacher at GZ. It's always great to meet another cacher out in the wild doing what all cachers enjoy doing. Cheers White Dog Gang (minus the white dog).

Thanks for your cache Rocky Glen Grommets .

Anzac Day.

Today we took a sea side journey travelling in the footsteps of Earthlight & X Trailers Ancestors. This was a terrific walk, it also bought back many memories of hubbies holidays as a child in a small fishing community.
We had some terrific views of the sea & visited many interesting places.

Thanks for placing this Rocky Glen Grommets

We enjoyed a lovely few days up in Port Vincent, and didnt want to leave, but alas we needed to get back home and sorted because apparently there is some sort of mega event that we needed to get organised for TFTC Wink
 
09-Apr-14
On the road again, using caching to guide us to the sites as we explore the state on our way to the Murray bridge mega. Friendly horse came charging up, perhaps he thought we were going to feed him. Interesting site, quick find tftc

Day 39 in a row for 31 days of caching in August. Cool Over visiting the relatives on YP for the weekend. Came back a different way to collect some caches.

We'll take your word for it OK? If you say there's 50 souls buried here we won't quibble. We won't try to count them either just to prove you right or wrong. 50 is now the figure cast in stone.

Found while heading to minlaton for a family get together, stayed the night in stansbury so decided to go caching, turned up just after it got dark and soon discovered it was impossible to see, and that the one thing that we didn't bring on the road trip was a torch, so we went to the Deli which was luckily open, and bought a cheap torch, we returned 15 minutes later and made a quick find in this interesting spot. TFTC.
 
19-May-13
What an interesting spot. The log was damp so tried to dry it out a bit in the wind as I looked over the monuments.

South Australia 2013 with Sol de Lune. We headed off on 12/4 and arrived home on 28/4. The trip was to visit the SA series so more time could be spent at the Mega itself next year. We did a huge variety of caching around Murray Bridge, the Mid North, Yorke Peninsula and Whyalla Region. Apart from one wet night and two wet days we were able to spend heaps of time caching.

Today we were traveling on the Yorke Peninsula, the original destination for this trip for the fifth and final full da that took us back north and west. Plenty of history to be seen here. We went via as many of the towns as possible along the way. Everyone has done a great job of placing a great variety of caches and we had a great day.

Thanks.

Grabbed with Albida on our 2 week caching run from Canberra to, and around, different parts of South Australia including Loxton, Murray Bridge, Tailem Bend, Yorke Peninsula and around to Whyalla before heading home via Broken Hill, Cobar and Parkes. We completed a few power trails and left a couple to do when in the area again for next years Mega event.

Overall a great many different styles and types of caches found. A great time was had caching for 16 days straight as well as camping along the way.

Thanks for adding to the fun with this cache. Log may need replacing as it was soaked.....

Had transport duty for the Bleden Venturers who were doing a Marine Litter Survey camp at Gleesons Landing. This gave me a day and a half to get some caches on the bottom end of the Peninsula that need a walk in and I had been leaving for later - well now was later Smile

Finally made a find on this one - sure that wasnt there the last times. TFTC. Big Grin

This was our 1st of 6 finds today - and we found it at around 13:49.
(So this is our 4156th total find.)

The weather isn't really conducive for Geocaching today. We've been driving around underneath the only patch of blue sky trying not to get wet, which wasn't always successful.

Took: Nothing
Left: Nothing
Thanks Rocky Glen Grommets for the hunt today.

Found on a girls weekend with muggle cuz in Wool Bay, just the cache for me! Loved it SL TFFC
 
26-Apr-12
Being relatively new to geocaching, I love the way that in the process of getting a find, you are taken to places which you wouldn't have normally gone to ... often interesting .... often historical.
This was one such find.

Signed the log, and was relieved that whilst it was a micro size, it was not a dreaded nano.
Clue helped.
