Didnt find it! Too good for me today. TFTC!

Nice hide, took a little bit of a search, but hint was helpful in knowing I was looking in the right spot. Beautiful location, nice and peaceful here today. Thanks for placing.

I was so busy wandering around taking photos that I almost forgot to look for the cache. This is a gorgeous spot

Heading home back to Adelaide I stopped off in Nuriootpa for some dinner and as couple of caches. Quick find here. All good. Thank you Squizzie, for placing Bush Garden for the geocaching community.# # #15822 # #

After arriving at our accommodation in Nurioopta, StreetWalkerNZ and I had a reviving cup of time, then went out to find some cache and some food.It was pleasant walking here in the early evening. A few other people out walking dogs etc, but no trouble with muggles and a quick find. TFTC.

We are on a caravanning trip around Australia seeing the sights and finding a few caches along the way. We are staying at friends place and decided to stay an extra night, so we had an extra day to fill in. So we decided to get the bikes out and ride a bit of this trail. Such a great trail. And some great caches along it aswell. Handed out quite a few favourites today. Thanks everyone for placing these caches.This one could possibly do with a check as don't think it's where it was originally. Thanks for placing

#24712. After doing a few ad-lab stages on our walk it was time to find a physical cache. Didn't take long to find the cache once we'd found the right tree. TFTC.

A relatively easy find on a sunny day Took me a few moments and then the cache was safely in hand.Signed and returned to its hiding place Excellent camouflage Well done .TFTC

The temptation of finding nearly 1,000 caches on a road trip in South Australia was proving all too tempting. So a date was set, flights were booked, and a car was hired. The Rats, Steeba, Wilbert67 and I were off to tackle the On Ya Bike series, and surrounding caches. Cache logs were either stamped, or signed GG (Gong Gangsters).We covered a great many kilometres, finding caches and enjoying the scenery. We camped under the stars. We enjoyed cold weather, rain and a winter heat wave. We cached in the dark. We cached in the light. We found some ordinary caches, and some brilliant ones.As is so often the case with our trips, the banter was constant, the jeering persistent, and the company excellent. Mind you, it is a lot easier to listen to Rugby League on the radio in the great State of New South Wales!This boiler-plate log does not take anything away from some of the excellent caches that we found, and I am appreciative of all of the cache hiders for their efforts in placing and maintaining all of these hides.We all ticked over mini Milestones during this trip, but notably I found my 20,000th cache. A Milestone I am very happy to have shared with my mates; mates that I have found thousands of caches with previously. Heres to many more caching adventures!Cheers

Ahh a long weekend caching in South Australia with the Gong Gangsters is way too good an opportunity to pass up. With dates set and leave passes granted we managed a 4-day caching spree - targeting the On ya bike series.The variety of finds was wide and diverse, we travelled with our own totts. Our finds are logged with our Gangster stamp or GG on the smaller logs.Thanks to all the COs who provided us with a great weekend, filled with laughter, banter and much more that cant be said. Thanks to my fellow caching buddies - steeba, Hoojar and Wilbert.TFTC

Found with The Rats, Hoojar and Wilbert67. Another big trip some time in the making to get some good numbers. Plenty of solving and working out final coordinates, packing lists and arranging transport from New South Wales to some of the mallee country of South Australia. As always plenty of laughs and great company.As always a variety of types and hides.Unless otherwise flagged cache found all ok. Thanks for placing these series.TFTC!

Thanks

took a little searching as it was getting dark, but soon had the cache in hand. thanks!

A nice hide to find. Out for a morning walk on a winters day before setting off to explore the Barossa. Love this little garden! Tftc

Wasn't looking head height but found it

TFTC great spot to walk around very peaceful

There were a few volunteers working around the gardens and I needed to be mindful to not get caught I felt. Easy find.

A lovely walk and perfect spot for a cacheThankyouTftc

Continuing my South Australian adventure. I had completed the adventure lab and was heading back to the geomobile, when i realised I would pass by this cache. I decided to stop off to make the find. Here, a quick find was made. With my name added to the log and everything returned as found, I continued on my way. TFTC

Seal may need replacing soon looks a little worn

Such a lovely place. Thankyou so much for bringing us here. Geocaching takes us to the most awesome places. TFTC

Found with great friends on a weekend in the caravan park

We’ve been out for a weekend of caching with Mrs Mellison and team Paulf76. We love the Barossa and had a great night last night. This is find number 14 for the weekend. TFTC

It was staring at me but I didn't return the look for some time! Thanks Squizzie.

AussieGal88 and myself are spending our daylight hours going on a trip up to the Barossa for a day of cache finding and also to visit the GeoStuff store.

We travelled around Nuriootpa, Angaston and Greenock and got a total of 17 finds and one adventure lab completed for the day for this pineapple.

I wouldn't have known this place existed if it wasn't for this cache so thank you for highlighting this area.

Cache was found after a couple of minutes of searching and container and contents are all good.

Thanks Squizzie for this traditional cache, which brings Goldy's total find count to 3445 on the 26th of August 2023.


CITO's are a brilliant way to help keep our community area's clean. The Earth is our playing field and we need to protect it!

Always be sure to cache the "leave no trace" way!


**South Australia is the place be for GCA1DNA - February 29th, 2024 in Adelaide! Hope to see you at The Great Leap Forward!**

Found on a fun day out and about enjoying the Sun - TFTC

Took a bit of searching in the fading light but managed to find this one for a first sign of the new log book. It seems like an interesting area but hard to see in the dark. Thanks.

Replaced with Bison.

After a good search and even a chat with my buddy and CO Squizzie, I struck out in the garden but thanks for bringing me here. Now I'm off to chapel ...

It's a beautiful garden. Thanks for the good hide

Found it with the kids help.

Catching up on logging. From Melbourne, in Tanunda for the weekend, it has rained most of morning so we caught up on logging, packed and headed out after the rain stopped. We headed to this park to find a couple. Lovely park overall and cute children’s park!

We found this while completing the adventure lab in the rain. Thanks for the cache

Having a productive geocaching weekend in SA in the good company of Beardman75 and Georode.
Had a wet morning walk in the Bush gardens.
Happy to make the find and move on back to the dry car.

Thank you for the hiding, this is what makes the game work!
Happy caching

TFTC, nice walk through the gardens whilst also doing the Adventure Lab cache.

got it

Day eighteen of our short South Australian trip with BettyBoo3747 and the geo-doggies.
The weather really could not make its mind up today, but it held off long enough for us to get our caching done. A couple of AdLabs and a pile of short walks made up our caching today. Our last day in the Barossa.

That is one spectacular tree! In fact the whole Bush Garden is a great idea well executed.
We spent a fair bit of time wandering around in here.
Thanks, Robmc.

#19384. Day 18 of our Vic/SA trip with Robmc the geodogs and our bicycles. Sadly, our last day in the Barossa based at Tanunda, before heading to Tailem Bend tomorrow. With the weather looking very dicy we once again thought that caching by car was the way to go. We headed to Nooriootpa and did some trads and an AdLab or two before calling it quits when the rain arrived.

This one didn't take too long to find and we then wandered over to the information board for the amazing Paddock Gum. I had already taken photos earlier on our walk around. It is so impressive.

Thanks Squizzie_

Nice cache, love the walk

Lovely gardens. Thanks for bringing us here

Cool paint

amazing

We are finally able to travel interstate without heaps of loops to jump through. We thought we would take it easy and have a look around South Australia and grab a few more LGA's while we were here.
Out for a morning run while staying at the nearby caravan park. We walked around here yesterday but I saved these caches for my morning run today.
A lovely park.


This was find number 2 for the day.

Good fine

Lovely - such a fantastic community resource. Third day in SA and out on trusty treadles aka my mtb to explore the trails and surroundings. I’ve learnt theRE are plenty of quality SA caches - plenty to pique the curiosity and anticipation of another surprise or fun cache. Happy and relieved to record no DNF’s today and on average most were located ‘relatively’ quickly. TFTC AND THE FUN and the effort to contribute to this fave game!

A quick cache while taking the dog for a walk TFTC

5 kids and a phone - so much fun.
