Nice little park!
cache container needs a bit of tlc,
but still a clever one Smile
tftc
 
13-Feb-15
Found it
 
01-Feb-15
Found the base of the cache pretty well straight away but since the cover and logbook were missing I didn't realise it was the cache until after I came back to it and found a tiny butterfly pencil eraser wedged inside it.
I've left the eraser and added a tiny scrap of paper inside the cache, hopefully it'll help other cachers with this one. You may need to use a key or tweezers to get it out.
Needs maintenance Smile
 
31-Jan-15
Suspect i found the base of container... But no lid or log. Might be worth a check.

Worth a point?
 
23-Dec-14
Not much sign of any canal these days !!
Just a big expanse of green grass for dogs and cachers to run around on Big Grin

The sneaky cache camo was soon spied and the logbook signed Smile

TFTC
 
23-Dec-14
A good find, great clue. Log book is now full
 
23-Dec-14
The base is OK but the cover is UV damaged. A trip to the hardware store is required. The log is actually visible to all the Muggles out there.
 
23-Dec-14
Just as I put it back I was invaded by Muggles, could not of timed it better.

Enjoyed the water view while chatting to a friendly local about her people and their connection to the area. Spotted the cache while talking but couldn't retrieve it until she moved off home to look after her bub, whereupon I leapt onto the cache, freed the resident cockroach, signed and replaced. TFTC, MalanDi. =^.^=

Ya know? I looked at it a few times before I read the clue. Don't you hate that!! Lots of people in hi viz around today spying on me. Just when I thought it was one of those days you suck at geocaching you get one and your spirits are lifted. Thanks for inspiring me to keep going today Malandi. Good one !!

We popped down to the Pt today hoping the markets would be open! Oops they are only open on Sunday's and public holidays ... what to do..
Lets find a cache or 2 in the cold artic weather.
I don't know Pt Adelaide ... at all really and was delighted to come across some really lovely buildings, parks (like this one) and interesting back streets. Cool
We didn't get many caches mainly because I had no idea wher I was going and 6 year old Joey was not in the mood to navigate Sad
Thank you for sharing a bit of Pt Adelaide with us and a quick cache MalanDi
 
22-Jun-13
My caching buddy, the GOTH with purple hair was in town so it was time for a full days caching. Cool I got to this one and it looked so familiar. In fact I walked straight to it and found the hide. I must have done this before. Newish log. No point checking there so I signed it. Got home and saw it coming up as unlogged. Looked back through the logs and saw that I had indeed been here in July last year with the M's but never logged it. I have now Smile Thanks MalanDi for bringing me here....TWICE! Big Grin

Having a case of the just one more's the cachemobile drove us to this one so we could get just a few more finds before heading toward home for some tea. Thanks!
 
03-May-13
Cache container is there, but no log book.
Added a piece of paper as a temporary log, but needs owner attention.

(Nice hide though! Smile )
 
03-May-13
Mrs Seek3rs was looking at nearby Jaffers ... "how about I leave you here for a bit, and I'll go look for a nearby cache?" I took the rolling of her eyes as an "Ok" and made an easy find here.

Found obvious cache location and container, but no log book but found the butterfly left by Motylki.

Left a piece of paper as a temporary log book, and put the Seek3rs sticker and date on this.

Will raise a maintenance note.

Seek3r-ed and found!

Our caching group is now reduced to four, MtnLioness, Locus Cache and ourselves. Dennis had this one in his hands before Locus Cache or myself even had time to survey the area. SL TFTC
 
16-Nov-12
After asking who wanted to come caching with me tonight, we ended up with (at various stages of the night) the ever happy to cache group of mogni, brisal5, muff1, earthlight, MtnLioness, ~*KittyKat*~ and, of course, myself Smile
My final tally for the night was (sadly) 1 DNF Sad and happily 19 locus cache events culminating in smileys Smile (including a pesky multi that I had had about 3 previous attempts at) as well as a FTF at 3.05am on my way home Big Grin
Second week in a row I have managed to FTF on my way home on Saturday morning after leaving the group Cool
As we were walking up, we said 'there' and then I saw Mr muff1 reach out but I didn't see his retrieval so there I was looking and looking, while they were starting to SL. Surprised
Hmmm, I have seen one of these recently on a much newer multi cache!
Still a decent hide that just might have had me looking for a while without muff1's intervention.
SL. TFTC MalanDi Smile

Found on another Friday night cache date for Mr & Mrs M-SEZ. Tonight we targeted the Port and surrounding areas. This was our first stop tonight. Found quite quickly thanks to the clue. TFTC
 
12-Aug-12
Nice bike ride to the GZ. Had to wait for some muggles to leave the area before we could search for the cache. Rock's sharp eyes again spotted the hide. Very clever. TFTC.

Scoped with Google Earth and did from memory. A quick find in the second place we looked. Good cammo that fits in with the surroundings. Hidden in clear view. We took Iz dog for a walk around the river path to the concrete emus on the Aboriginal heritage walk. Thanx for bringing us here. Haven't been to Port Adelaide for ages. Thanx
