With all the previous DNF's I felt 'Not So Alone' logging a DNF here today (3 Dec 2017). Would have been nice to grab a possible TB to take to Tassie with me on the 21st of Dec 2017. Oh well, Muggles possibly must have taken a liking to this one [:o] TFTH anyways, Honey Badger Gang

Team ICE on a two week geocaching trip in Australia. Our main target was the Red Centre Experience at Alice Springs but of course we did some caching in other places too. We drove from Adelaide to Alice Springs and then back. We saw lots of interesting and beutiful places like opal mines at Coober Pedy, Ayers Rock and Kata Tjuta. Our rental travelled almost 6500km on gravel and tarmac roads. The weather was great, only on last day we got some rain.
All the caches logged as Team Ice, T-ice or Tice with kapeka, laalaa and Hiltsu. We had a great trip!
Today our trip continued from Port Augusta to Port Vincent. On a way we visited beautiful Weeroona Island, spend some time at Port Pirie, visited Moonta's himalayas and found many caches on the way.
Thanks for the cache and greetings from Finland!

We had fun with caching few weeks here in Australia ( South Australia and Northern Territory ). Lots of geocaches and many sort of them too. We saw awesome places, weather was good all the time and people were friendly and polite. Caches were pretty similar like in our home country. Of course there were some exeptions. Nice and huge country!

One last cache on our way to Port Augusta, after a long day of travel. How surprising to find one of these so close to the road. Sadly no trackables, they've probably all been taken to where we are going, the Mega at Alice Springs.
Thanks for placing and maintaining the cache.

Good reason to stretch the legs. Nice easy find, thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.
Hi there Honey Badger Gang.
We found your cache **"Travel Bug Turnoff"** at 12:32:00 PM today. (This makes our find count 15916).
We cached between Port Augusta and Wilmington today. On our trek we found a wide variety of container types. & ended up finding 11 caches with 0 DNF's.
Thanks for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape, but he whole area around GZ is covered with turds and toilet paper. [xx(]
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

#1306 Fifth of ten finds on Day 14 of my South Australian geocaching road trip. Nice easy find after a short search. TFTC
Great spot - close to the highway, along the water pipe: stopped to stretch legs. TB picked up!
TFTC geocaching with SwagHo. We are discovering Australia one cache at a time. Holidaying from Canada having great time
I wasn't turned off by any travel bugs since there weren't any. Haha. Happy Boxing Day from the Canadian geocachers from Vancouver Island Canada. Here with HennyGeo in amazing Australia . TFTC.
I was going to drop off a trackable here today, but some travellers have set up camp right next to cache.
Having completed an audit against my finds and those of The Wackys, now logging those that I have missed. Many caches over a number of years. These days I actually keep up.
Thanks for thecache.
Found with Robtas and/or The Wackys

On the road again after a great few days caching in Whyalla area... A quick find here and good to have a little break ...T4TC:)
Started on our travels West Bound.
found a couple smilies along the way to mark our travels.
Was shocked and caught unawares with this beauty as this was the first of this cache type that we have found in South Australia, so we didn't have anything to leave behind but our name in the logs.

On the journey to the overnight stay in Pt Augusta stopped for a quick fresh air break and this cache was close by so had to make the find. Quick find of a well hidden ammo can, signed log and replaced so onward to Pt Augusta for the night.

Travelling back home to Adelaide after a weekend in Whyalla, we decided to stop and check one. A quick find and sign... unfortunately a little too easy for an intended "safe" TB hotel style cache. We were sadly disappointed to find NONE of the SIX Trackables logged into the cache :c( It is very disheartening to see so many TBs go missing.... so all we can say now is... TFTC!
Moochinbout dropped of travel bug TRHDC6 M's Key Bear in Travelbug turnoff GC23CFK
Dropped off Trackables TB49F3H Reference number, M's Key Bear and What a croc ... TB. No other sighted.
TFTC, SL after quite a bit of trouble locating as GPS was flipping all over the place.
Dropped off Trackables, TB4MMY8 Fruit Salad apple and TB38G40 Travelling in style, Two more Trackables are currently in cache, which are, TB5KJCP Travel Boot Bug Dog Tag and TB5Z0X9 Travelling Earth, the rest of trackables needs to be booked out, by the collectors.
GoodLook very, very badly wanted to attend a special event, so who was I to tell her she was going overboard with geocaching [?]
Instead we jumped into Harry on Friday for 2 days of adventure, accompanied by Laighside Legends, in Whyalla where fishingmad was holding an event on Saturday to christen his new boat..... 6km out in the gulf[^]
We had a blast and it was huge fun showing GoodLook around parts of Whyalla that she hadn't seen before I think her logs say it all!
Today was a day of 3 DNFs and 30 finds
Unless mentioned otherwise, please know that your cache and log book was in good condition.
Some people love TB Hotels and some dislike them, fearing that it allows for easier muggling of multiple TBs
This one was in place and safe and sound so we just had to stop and find it

A quick find with Locus Cache and Laighside Legends.
The loud and lovely Locus Cache [:X], the very clever Laighside Legends and myself drove to Whyalla in Harry with the aim of this weekend being: to find a few caches, and attend the 5T boating/fishing & caching event.....AWESOME!! [^]
There was fun, laughter , silliness [:o)], tense moments, some creative driving (on road, off-road, dirt, sand, mud, water, tackling what could be described as a very steep and narrow bmx track...yep you heard me!) , breath holding , kindness [:X], tight time schedules, ladder climbing, feet getting wet, dolphins, a boat, fish, nanos, ammos, sistema of all sizes and a number of mint tins. Surprisingly few DNFs. And LOTS of other mad crazy conversations and adventures. Gotta love caching and all of the fun it can be!! [:o)] [^]
Thanks for the cache Newbs Clan
