We have spent a couple of nights with Honeysucker and now are heading down towards Adelaide to do a few caches and catch up with Goodlook picking up caches close to the road as we go.

We pulled up here with a feeling of de-ja-vue as we had stayed in this back packers when it was still a motel about 35 years ago and it looks like the years haven't been that kind to it but that wasn't what we were here for today so we did a u-turn to head back to the cache location and we both spotted the hide from the car so it was a simple walk across and add our name to the log.

Many thanks munkelo for the cache.

Caching has fallen by the wayside with everything that has been going on, work, lockdowns, blah, blah...so we needed to get away for a bit of R&R after lockdown so headed to Loch Luna for the weekend to refresh and cache! Today we packed up and headed home clearing out a few caches on the way. A quick find. TFTC

Got to love caching trips! On the way to South Australia with a few friends to pick up some nice caches. Tankengine and I had to cut the trip short and head directly to Adelaide for a family emergency so we bid our friends goodbye and only picked up a couple of cache along the road to give us regular breaks. All things considered we had a great third day of the trip. So many interesting places and some great caching too.

This cache: A quick stop and find along the way. Tftc munkelo!!!

This weekend, I headed to the Murray Riverland around Berri and Renmark primarily to attend the celebration event, but also to join others in some kayaking geocaching adventures. I hadn't visited this region before, and I left really enjoying the picturesque nature of the rivers, the wine-growing areas, and pretty towns. I ended up visiting Kingston on Murray, Barmera, Berri, Lyrup, Renmark, and Paringa. Three other highlights worthy of mentioning was Chambers Creek, Katarapko Island, and the historical SA-NSW surveyed border area.

Today, it was back to Katarapko Island, but a different section to what we visited yesterday. It was a quick paddle across, and a shorter walk on the island today. After that, I made a long drive with Brad&Janet towards the NSW border visiting Chowilla Game Reserve, and some of the older caches around there. I then slowly returned back to Renmark and civilisation, and with the last few hours of daylight left, visited Paringa. A very cute town. A final detour through Berri and then on to Monash, before returning home for the evening.

A quick find with a park and grab here. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks munkelo for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

As I am getting older and running out of time, I have decided I will take off on my own to cache in different areas of our vast country as my NGW (Non Geocaching Wife) has no interest in caching.
I have been in Loxton for five days of full on caching with suscoe, au.fait and Phetlern but suscoe and Phetlern have hit the road for home so that leaves only au.fait & the ageing Bushfire to head out to do the wandering heroes Fishy Tales and a few other caches.
I am afraid that for the next few days my logs are going to be a lot of cutting and pasting but that does not take away the effort that the owners have put in to provide these caches for us to find so please accept my thanks. With close to 200 caches placed I know how much work is involved with not only placing them but the ongoing maintenance.
Very cold morning but we kept plodding on cache after cache until the day warmed up.
Thanks, munkelo for placing this cache.
 
14-Mar-20
Both Phetlern and Suscoe headed for home early this morning so Bushfire and I headed off to see if we could land a very big fish. We were very successful at this, much more so than catching those wet and slippery ones. We were so successful that we also had time to find many more caches around the district too. Another great day with the ever helpful Bushfire even if I did nearly freeze early in a bitingly cold wind I have much to thank him for as he provided the vehicle, did all the driving, provided fruit cake, and a big warm jacket which saved my life, to say nothing of his good company TFTC munkelo

This year our plan was to spend our "summer vaction" in Australia.
So arriving on the 7th November we took over the campervan and started our tour from Sydney to Adelaine. On that tour we found a lot of caches. This was one of it.

Thank's a lot to all CO's that placed and maintain the caches here in "Down Under".
