Logs
We liked the concept here - all being COs we understand the maintenance requirement. We had read previous logs here and come prepared; maintenance complete.Mmm, minty log!Thanks, Freddo. This was fun and gets a favourite from me!
Out with the team for a good time in the city and surrounds. Plenty of shoe leather and lots of fun.TFTC
A fun few days in this beautiful city with friends. Lots of walking in the cool fresh air with little time to spare - fun! Mountainsbeyond had us organised with the replacement cache - cache on! TFTC Freddo!
Chooo ooo [Found] with youban and dty73 on our trip to SA to attend the Leapyear mega!Thanks Freddo!
Out with Tankengine and Dty73 before leaving Adelaide. Think we got this one right. Kutgw
Day 6 - Tankengine, Youban and I are finally on our way home today. We have had a lot of fun in Adelaide and enjoyed our time here. Today we thought some inner city caches while the could be less muggles, then grab a few on our way to Swan Hill, where we are staying the night. This cache: No maintenance required. I dont get South Australians sometimes. Tftc!!!
Not sure what to expect with this popular quirky cache with a dashing cache page write-up. It was all pleasant and collect today, and I signed the receipt/logbook as was. Lucky last and off to start to type the logs up.At midday I headed to the city and parked in a pay and display slot for 2 hours and hit the city trails. Reckon I managed 20 Ad Lab stages and about 12 real caches.An early start with work this morning, in the local bakery before 0600 collecting food for colleagues and delivering just after 7. A whole load of vehicle refuelling was next on the cards and some modest networking and meeting new folks. When all that was done a quick meeting then into the city for a bite of some of the many riches available caching-wise. Picked off a few Ad Lab stages when possible and targeted the Virtuals and Earthcaches mostly. Thanks to all SA cache hiders for your efforts and maintenance.
Haha looked on the wrong object first. Then it was in front of pur faces.Our plan hatched months ago when we learned that the Ballarat Geotour would be ending in early March. From Sydney it was a no brainer to do both. A host of characters conspired to make plans. Including drobbonz kimmy533 Kiwisteve2 and tessa-bella. The trip morphed multiple times but Adelaide was the goal for Leap Day.I spent the last one in Las Vegas.Sydney, Ballarat, Great Ocean Road, Adelaide, Flinders Ranges, Mildura and back to Sydney.

One of the more philosophical caches I've ever found. In it's current form, the cache has a receipt for two eclipse tins as the log.... I love it!TFTC - fave point awarded.
Found after a work event up the road, replaced the cache and enjoyed the walk. TFTC
This was another quick geocache for the literally out and in the car!Thanks to the geocache community ^_^
Thanks Freddo for hiding this cache and giving us some fun chasing it down This was find number 929 for us
Walking around the Adelaide CBD trying to put pen to paper. And after a whole bunch of virtual caches and earth, Cachers, I get to sign my geocaching handle. TFTC!

In town for a few days, figured Id explore the city while caching. It pained me to see it this waybut TFTC regardless!
A few years back I couldn't find it. This time I found it straight away. 8 for 8 today...

Quick find whilst passing and no need to use any of my supplies

I was out for a nice evening stroll and came by this geocache. The cache is in a good location, thanks.
Coords had us a bit further down than needed but a quick find once we looked in the right spot. TFTC.

Find 23 of 33 on a busy caching day - out to Mount Barker for a bush walk, Hanhdorf for lunch and an Ad Lab, then e-scooting all over town for the afternoon and finally out to Port Adelaide for a FTF.
Crossed some more wide highways before Mrs O took a look for this one.
TFTC Freddo!

Quick find which was nice and slightly surprising for city/high muggle area. Reading the description I love the way this cache is set up to be replaced if needed in high muggle area. Well done. You know what I am feeling generous-have a fav point! TFTC
Not exactly what the picture says as the eclipse box has been painted and camouflaged well
It has gone. Had a really good search. Will leave something there this week to find ...
Found with PSGV1, had our stamp but no pen (servo doesn't sell pens for reference). TFTC
Out for an explore this morning and looking for caches along the way. This one intrigued me and I did have a giggle as well. That's one way to do maintenance! No issues here but an unhappy spider in residence behind it. TFTC Freddo
