The team headed off to Adelaide for a wedding for a couple of weeks in the caravan, exploring Victorian and South Australian country side, with many campsites to stay at, and many more caches to find along the way. Thanks so much to the CO's maintaining these for us to explore.
Found @ 5:58pm, #1030, 7 of 10 for the day. FP from me for being such an old and long lasting cache. Found it a bit in the open, log book a bit tatted but OK. Signed and replaced out of sight.

Found it in the last place I looked
The log is in a very poor state. It’s almost papier-mâché.

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I travelled to Victor Harbor for the day to target a few Adventure Labs. We walked around Granite Island, and then did a loop of The Bluff (Rosetta Head) in the afternoon. Finally, we briefly stopped at Port Elliott beach for a swim, and then returned to Adelaide via Crows Nest Road.
This was the choice of our beach for our quick swim today. We managed to find this cache first, after having a DNF here when we visited in late January 2020 (and had been confirmed to be missing). However today, it was a reasonably quick find. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks spuddymoore for the cache placement, and [@mogni](http://coord.info/PR1NT8Z) for its ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

very wet needs some maintenance and make sure you take you’re own pen, beautiful spot though
Beautiful views, beautiful weather, easy find, lots of muggles on school holidays,TFTC
A trip down to Victor Harbor was organised for today with Michells&hound, primarily to get the new Adventure Lab caches down there and then working on a list of other caches that we both had not found. [^]
It was a lovely sunny day and we had a very enjoyable time driving around the area and stopping at Port Elliott Bakery for lunch. We found all the caches we looked for and turned a couple of DNF's into smilies which is always good.
The sea looked great today and the waves were booming. We had to wait out a couple of muggles before we could look for the cache but it was soon found nicely tucked away.
Thanks for the cache mogni.

If Today I headed to Victor Harbour with JJ52 with the primary goal of doing the new lab cache there. Of course it was a bit far to go just for the labs so caches were added in. We found all the caches we looked for but a few on our list we did not attempt.
Rex also came along for the trip and he was such a good boy and he had a brilliant day out. He is knackered now.
We enjoyed an excellent bakery lunch in Port Elliot and were amazed with the number of people still queuing for pies at 2pm!
Blessed with fantastic weather it was a wonderful day for caching.
Heart sank when read the cache name was sure it was going to be a gun but then JJ52 told me the beach name.
Watched the surfers for a bit and then found the nicely hidden cache. TFTC Mogni

Visiting The Harbour for a week or so & including some caching on our itinerary. This one found in good condition without trouble.
I am not sure if it is missing or buried but I have put a new container there for geocachers to find.

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I headed to Victor Harbor and Port Elliott for a few reasons. The Tour Down Under was riding through this area in the afternoon, and there was the traditional Australia Day geocaching event down at Port Elliott. We used the opportunity to ride around the new *## is the new color* [sp.] series that had been published only 3-4 months previously. Also, I had wanted to return to Granite Island off Victor Harbor to finish finding a few geocaches that I had left on the east side of the island. It turned out to be a terrific day with nice weather, good company, and we finished off with a fish and chips dinner whilst driving home listening to the Triple J Hottest 100.
We found a logical place for this hide, but nope. Had a pretty decent and detailed search just in case we missed something, and not suffering from DNF-itis, but unfortunately we suspect this one is missing. Will watch and see, thanks anyway mogni.

Didn't find it. However, there were lots of muggles which made an extensive search tricky...so it may well be there. TFTE and history.
out for a morning bike ride with Mrswhitedog, Princess Consuela & QinNai
no luck for us today
If CO wants to message me I can check for them

Last walk along the beach with the geofamily before we head back home to Adelaide. Lovely holiday down here. Cache was a bit exposed so we made sure it was well hidden again. Tftc
In my younger days I would come here with friends on body boards. Much simpler times. It was great to come here and reminisce and to find a cache.
Thanks for the cache spuddymoore, adopted by mogni.

The compass on the GPS was all over the place but Eagle Eyes still found it - she beats me every time!
Stopped on route to the Seaside Ten event. Quick find but not the first place i looked.
I was in the area, trying to grab all the caches local to port Elliot, discovering once again how great this area is. This was an excellent hide, had me puzzling for quite a while! Tftc!
Ronso had some luck and quickly spotted this one hiding as we approached GZ. A nice little hiding spot... and nice views of the beach below. Retrieved the TB. TFTC!!
This one took a while to locate but eventually found in a very sneaky hidey hole. Can’t remember if that’s the original place but never the less a great hiding spot in a lovely location! Thanks mogni
A bit late to log this but found while taking in the fresh sea air! Lovely area thanks.
Exploring the area going from cache to cache with woolwood9.
We really enjoyed finding the good containers and visiting the nice locations.
*Another find for us here! SL TFTC*

Beautiful view of the beach and coastline from here...
I did not take long to find the cache...it was in need of attention as it did not have a lid and the log book had fallen to pieces with it's pages stuffed in the container...
I replaced the cache and the logbook so looking good again...
Thanks for keeping this cache alive mogni
