With a spare 24 hours in Adelaide I grabbed a hire car and went caching. What else was I to do!

Normally I hate caches in locations like this. Thankfully no one was around today.

My caching buddy, the GOTH with purple hair was in town so it was time for a full days caching. Cool Ah so not the CHER song Bang Bang (My Baby shot me down) [?] Pity. that came into my head as we started towards the cache. By the time we made our way over the speed humps into GZ it vocalised much to Mogni's displeasure. Bang Bang - my suspensions gone. Bang Bang - my muffler too. Bang Bang - my heads through the roof. Bang Bang - my suspensions on the ground. Wink Well it was damn funny at the time. Big Grin
So onto GZ were I tried to sit on it and feel for it. Nope. Checked the clues, got off and reached further under and found it. Smile Thanks Badooleoo. Big Grin So where do I send the bill for the suspension. [?]

Cycling past the park today I was happy to see the area was deserted Smile
Hardly surprising with the lack of shade here.
I didn't try out the slippery dips.
You could probably have fried and egg on them [:o]
The cache was found safe and sound with a handy seat nearby.
There's a few finder's logs in the book from the local kids by the look of it Big Grin

This is one of the most astonishing caches I've found. How does it not get muggled by curious kids? (Owl helped by caching on a cold winter's morning during school hours.)

Another beautiful day around Adelaide today, and this was a nice little spot to go for a wander. It was a bonus that there was no around, and so the cache was quickly spotted and signed.

Gratias Badooleoo.

Fortunately the park was deserted when I arrived here this afternoon, which was just as well I think. This one would be difficult for an adult male on his own with a few kids about! A quick find. Great position. Thanks Badooleoo for the cache.

20-Jul-11
This is my 4th visit - it is a popular place for the local kids and they were always there guarding it. Curse of the school holidays. I got muggled anyway, by Team Engaged, then I noticed they looked just as out of place as I was so guessed what they were after!
TN left a seashell. TFTChallenge.

We discovered a place that looks like a cache sized hole. Can it please be checked to see if it is still there?
We spent a good 15mins searching and digging around under the bang-banger, but for nothing to show from our endeavour but barkchips and sand. Sad
