Day Seventeen of our holiday, BettyBoo3747 and I are settling in at Semaphore in Adelaide. We dragged out the deadly treadlies and rode the coastal trail. There looked like quite a few on the map, but we ended up riding more kilometres than we found caches. An awful lot of caches still listed that were not there (and that doesn't count our DNF's!)
I have dived with Grey Nurse Sharks in NSW, and they are endangered there. They are a lovely animal to watch swimming, although we made sure we weren't in the water after dusk.
The cache as described has parted company, just leaving a broken cable tie behind.
Fortunately, we found it on the ground a distance away, and BB had a spare cable tie, so it is back.
Thanks, Robmc.

Day 17 of our SA holiday. Our first day based in Semaphore so time to explore on the bicyles and hope to pick up several of the nearby caches. A forelorn hope as it turned out, as we kept rocking up to caches that are actually missing in action and then there were our other DNF's also. I did manage to sign 23 caches on a 30km ride and gathered another 6 DNF's for my growing SA collection.

Although the last finder rested the cache on the sign it had dived off onto the ground (not surprisingly). Fortunately Rob spied it so we got out a new cable tie and re-attached the container.

Thanks 3LG

Today, Sunday the 11th of December 2016, the HUGE Cruise Liner Ship called the "Ovation of the Seas" was berthed at Outer Harbour and the area was "Muggle-Shark" Central! [:o] This didn't phase me one bit as I was in 100% Stealth Mode and none of them even batted an eyelid at me. Sometimes millions of Muggles is better than a handful of them. Just don't wanna get 'Bitten' by the ones with Blue and White Checkers on their hats and cars that's all, lol Big Grin SL at 10:02. Thanks for bringing me here 3LG, i would have never known about the ship being in otherwise [^] TFTC Smile

Another sunny Friday afternoon and i was of to find more caches around the Port Adelaide/Outer Harbor way. A shorter afternoon than last time but unlike last time there were fewer dnf's. Nice quick finds were had and trackables swapped and an enjoyable day was had.

A nice quick find for a cache this size. I spent a bit too long looking for the last log on the scroll so I could add my name under it, and then realised it was a new log sheet.

Thanks 3LG.
 
13-Aug-16
After the DNF i went and checked this one and couldn't be found, new cache in place and hopefully lasts here.
 
10-Aug-16
Well I think I know what I should have found, found the informatio but nothing to make me reflect anything - except maybe the wild wind which made me ask why am I here? I have one of these posted as well but could find yours today and I hunted for a 15m cirlcle from the sign. ???
 
18-Jun-16
late log due to failed attempt at uploading log directly from gps unit, I don't know if its gps software, internet brower or me but its not working so going back to typing logs.
turns out doing over time limits caching time, so day 2 of caching outer habour area

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache 3LG.

Muggle gardeners were nursing the plants near a nearby cache so I had to leave it and start heading back to Port Adelaide to pick up the wife from her plasma donation.
Thankfully a nice quick find, although I did try the odd top first before spotting the cache.
My late mum was a nurse, but I don't think she liked to eat coral - just oysters.

Still leisurely touring South Australia after the Mega.

With the weather being forecast to be 17degrees today we decided to take the geobikes for a spin. Fabulous weather and some great areas we got to explore all thanks to your cache 3LG

Well this was a bit funny as the first cache we located was in fact an old missing cache so we looked again and found the current cache. We removed the old cache and contacted the CO.
