Lid is missing, cache bag full of water so cannot sign log. Photo taken if required. TFTC

Found nice and quickly, photo taken as we were unable to sign log due to bag being full of water as lid is missing. Tftc

Cache needs urgent maintenance.

Gotcha - Cache floating in water. Everything is soaking wet. Unable to sign.

As previous Cacher said in need of maintenance. Cant sign. No lid.

Dieser Geocacher hat gemeldet, dass der Behlter beschdigt ist.

Need maintance! 25. Oktober 2023 10:21 633 GENIONMAIK und BastiH =) waren da! Danke @ Groovygranny47 fr den Cache!Viele Gre aus dem Salzlandkreis!

Great HideThanks NiceNannies for the cacheJames0116Saturday, 30 Sep 202312:58:26 pm ACST3847

On the 14th of September, 2019, a youthful but slightly bored Otter googled geocaching. With 30 minutes he found his first cache, and the rest is history. As I commence my fifth loop of the calendar, Ive piled everything in the car and have no set agenda except to be back by the 20th. Should be fun.I made the mistake of starting to read some previous logs before even arriving at GZ for this cache, and so it meant that I pretty much knew what to look for. Still, well executed. Wouldnt be easy on a busy beach day, but all was quiet today, despite the warm temperature. Thanks for this hide GroovyGranny47.

Very clever hide

Great hide. TFTC

Great hide and good camp. Easy find with yummy az eats. Thanks for bringing us to this beach Tftc

Two or three? Excellent hiding. Tftc

We should have found this cache a bit earlier today, then this could have been our Number 2s find of the day.

TFTC and greetings from Tassie

25After setting up camp in Kensington SE RV Camp, Pa and I set out in search of caches back down the coast towards Cape Jaffa. This was one of the caches we found on a wet, wild day. TFTC Groovygranny47 SL
There was no way that we could venture onto the beach today.

Very clever!!!! Blends into it background very well.

TFTC

Very clever cammo but a quick find. Thanks for placing it.

A quick find with frmen1. Not game enough to go onto the beach in our AWD. Great cammo. Left more swag items. TFTC

Clever are you a plumber?

TFTC sneaky hide

Let mister contend with that just in case…??

A beautiful morning, sunshine, light breeze and not a sign of rain. We were having quite a fun day until mid afternoon the rain started. Our day consistered of finding a variety of caches, AL's and a few DNF's and finding us arriving back at home at a much later time than we had wamted to be.
We had a lovely lunch at the fish and chip shop near the jetty and we found a fantastic place that we can bring our caravan to when we want some time out.

Another sneaky hide tftc

Tftc!
Tricky!! We found it after some searching.

TFTC NiceNannies for your cache Drop In At Pinks that we found today. We left a showery Millicent this morning to head to Kingston SE for a few days. After setting up camp in the RV Park and having lunch we headed out to explore using caching and Adventure Labs as a guide. A nice afternoon exploring

Find count : 15703

I didn't understand the hint but I did find the cache. Great hide! TFTC

Awesome little hidey hole

OCW PelDroedGwin and geodog Peppa

Wasn’t sure about the location of this one…would have struggled to explain what I was doing if a muggle appeared but the hide was pretty sneaky and clever !

Tftc

Ocw the Bebes. Went for a quick spin on the beach and found this quick drive by. Tftc

Found

Found it!

Found while with my Shatzy on a short break. Found cache easily enough as when I arrived the lid was off and cache empty except for a small toy. Placed new book in bag and secured container properly.

Cheers and Happy Hunting

Very clever and what a beautiful beach. Well deserved fav point.

TFTC! Favorite point from me for this one

Took a while we both thought can't be that but it was tftc

Good one

Clever , what a beautiful beach. I imagine very popular in summer

Tftc took me a few minutes very clever ??

A quick look around after a walk on the beach and before the rain meant that we didn’t need to look for shelter. A good find. All in good order. TNLN. TYFTC

Found at 11:26 am on a short road trip with Shonkylogic

New log book added

Found with FUF009.
Day 3 of our long weekend trip to Millicent. Today was more of a sightseeing day. Up to Kingston and back, taking side roads to caches. A pleasant day.
Tftc

Find # 10593

Found with sharkiefan.

Back in SA, caching around the area with out base being Millicent.
It was 2 years ago on the March long weekend we were last over here. (That was pre covid/lockdown days.)
We had a great time, back then, and when we got home it was only 20days later Vic went into full covid lockdown mode.

The world has changed somewhat since then, but caching still gets us out n about.

And it is kind of fitting that we are back here for a planned interstate caching trip to get us both back into an area we enjoy (not ta mention I always enjoy the SA caches n trails)

This trip we are both armed with some new gear for the new trails. And i had a few caches targeted to help achieve some challenges and stats.

Once again it was a great little break from the norm of life back home.

Today we toured from Millicent, hit the coast n made our way to Kingston SE. Then cached back to Robe, checked out some camping areas and finishing the day in Beachport with Ad Labs.

Bit of a risky grab but thankfully no smell today.

Find #14506.

After a MEGA weekend away it was time to head home.
A quick find while caching with earthlight.
Also bumped into froghoppin, Mattycat and Sebastbat at the next few caches.
FP for the craftiness of this cache... something I would do ????

TFTC Groovygranny47

Our final day camping at the Mega, all packed up but still the aim to cache the highway home and any others we happened to be near this was one of them, travelling with Mattycat and Sebastbat, quick find for us on this one today with a couple of other teams we met at the last cache, LIB and earthlight
TFTC Groovygranny47

Post geoventure caching with Sebastbat, Jack, and Froghoppin, along the journey home.

Found a bunch of caches, including this one Neat hide like one of my own old ones,

Thanks you for putting this cache out on the SE SA geomap Groovygranny47

Please do stay safe when caching.
Lookout for mud, snakes, surprise cliffs, wild goats, wombats, bulldust, and lightning,
try not to get tetanus from rusty mint tins and don't fall out of trees...

Make sure Travel Bugs are the only bugs you share and pass on


We really appreciate all those placing quality caches out and about around the countryside,
it keeps our game safe, fun, and interesting

TFTC! Fun morning geocaching with my little cousin.

Staying in Kingston o/n we headed out after dinner to see the tourist spots and find a few caches.
We were not sure if we should be tampering with what we thought was a good possibility of being the cache but we tried anyhow and came up trumps.

Thanks Groovygranny47 for the placement.

So we did it, we took the plunge and early last year made arrangements to sell our little hobby farm in South Gippsland and ‘do a big lap’.
No full lap is complete without a lap of the little island first.
So after tidying up our affairs and putting everything into storage, we celebrated Christmas with our families and hit the road.

We recently spent 7 magnificent weeks in beautiful Tasmania, then we just did a quick trip down the west coast of boring old Victoria, making our way to South Australia, crossing the border before Covid strikes again.
Looking forward to slowing things down as we spend time in SA with no return date planned.
Thanks for being one of the CO’s who supplied us with a cache to do on the way.
This one was most enjoyable.
