Logs
We have been visiting family in Adelaide and are now heading towards Melbourne in a rental motorhome. Murray Bridge was our first stop and we managed to find a few caches while here. This was our second for the day and not too hard to locate as the area was mostly quiet. Mrs nzk was careful to avoid a big ant trail nearby. We went looking for the speedway up the hill afterwards but didnt find it. All good with the cache, TFTC honeysucker.
Having been diverted to the Murray Bridge area by the prospect of potential FTFs, Im now rounding out the afternoon with some caches on the far side of the township. This was one of them. I made hard work of this one; my iPhone GPS had me way higher than I needed to be, but at least I got a good view of the cache when I looked back towards the road. Its unseasonably warm today too. Thanks for the workout Honeysucker.
Just happy this was a quick find in an area where there were a few hiding spots. On a hot day like today there were lots of ants and who-knows what else lurking in the rocks and bushes. Once logged, naughtybunny and I were out of here. TNLN. Cheers.
Quick find here after dashing past the bull ant's nest in completely inappropriate footwear!

Nice size good spot to grab thus one as we passed before our event in Murray bridge, tftc
TFTC. Co ords spot on. Left baby lid . Found old log book on rock in open. Added to cache
This little climb earned me another scone. On the hunting trail again with SeasonedBird. Blue sky day, so it’s a great day for caching. TFTC honeysucker

Checked on this for the CO. Left new cache (1.5L screw top container) with new log, pencil and half a dozen swaps
One of the little things that make road trips well worth it. Thanks for hiding this here.
Pretty easy find. The lid is broken and everything inside if wet so it might need some maintenance to be done
The most direct route is not the easiest route... log book and container could do with updating as the book is water damaged into a bit of a brick book! TFTC, a cool scramble.
Sunday morning drive around Murray Bridge with the geo-pup, before CPs event this afternoon. Lid is cracked, contents are soaked. TFTC
Found! During a long walk with the dog. Overshot my first searching area but soon found the cache
Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children. Where ever possible, we will maintain your cache as we travel.
After our house sit in Willunga, we are on the road again, filling in time before we go to Kangaroo Island on 1 Nov. We left Strathalbyn, enroute to Murray Bridge. Set up camp at the show grounds - where the MurrayBridge Event was held a few year ago.... Best place to start.
We were going to attempt the WhereIGo, but the cartridge failed at the first turn, so it was just 17 trads today. Ok, so we had lunch and decided to round our day of at a 20/20
Scrambled around the rocks, maybe way to high. We checked the D/T rating and started looking elsewhere then found the cache. Thanks honeysucker.

Approaching GZ I was a little worried. Then I checked the terrain rating and breathed a sign of relief. After a bit of scampering the cache was located. All in good order here.
Thanks for the cache honeysucker.

Found with Redrover09 Beware bees and bull ants in this area and suspect snakes in summer TFTC
A nice and easy find
A big day out with 101 finds between Adelaide and Blachetown, definitely didn’t take the google maps recommended route that’s for sure, a detour to Murray bridge then through the back roads to Loxton and back to blanchetown. A nice day out overall when dodging the large dust storm.

found this one by accident with my best friend, read the notebook and got all of this information and now i’m here!! got a new hobby
First find. Didn’t know what this was until I found a random little “log” book. I looked through the book and found repetitive words. Once I found meanings I found out this was a worldwide scavenger hunt!! I can tell now I’m going to be addicted to this!!
Today wasn't about numbers it was about a) finding a cache to complete my DT matrix after almost 6 years of caching and b) finding my Wandering Heroes cache. Both of these missions were accomplished, which meant this was a very special day of caching.
Set off from home at 10.30 to head to Hahndorf where the geohusband and I went for a gin tasting which was brilliant, 2 bottles were purchased one of which I am enjoying now whilst writing my logs. We then did a bit of shopping and the crappy weather put the husband off so he and the hound headed back down the hill home.
I called Davidwazza who was meeting me to help with my final DT square. Met him to do that and then continued on with the rest of my caching.
All up around 25 caches were found for the day, many km driven, got very wet, then got dry. Excellent day of varied caching including one bonus find from 2001. Home happy!
Wasn't sure I was in the right spot until I read the listing more carefully. I then went for an exploration and found a nice big cache. TFTC honeysucker always good to find one this big.

We diverted off the highway to come and search for this cache which we soon located once at Ground Zero, but not being being bitten by ants! We signed the log book and then replaced as found after adding a fossil we found while looking for the cache. Thanks so much for the cache and greetings from Zimbabwe
Out with woolwood9 and we enjoyed getting some more finds in the area.
Thanks for putting this cache out and showing us around! SL
Walked around a bit here before finding this one.

TFTC We are in Murray Bridge participating in the Masters Games. Thought we would find a few caches before we head for home.
Nice search we had but we found it, even in night time. Better were shoes instead of thongs

Out with sir_spectre and jacknor on a 24hr caching run. Most caches were found easily and some a b8t trickier. Thanks to the many CO'S for placement of caches.
