While enjoying an hour or two in Robe in this incredibly busy season we stopped by to grab this one.

We searched around here for a while keeping a lookout for the many muggles passing but decided to abandon the search to keep the hide safe.

Thanks anyway simoncarney

This weekend, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I headed to the limestone coast / south-east for some sightseeing, mountain biking, and sinkhole diving. On Friday night, we stayed at Robe, seeing the famous obelisk the following morning. We then drove through Little Dip Conservation Park to Beachport, then Rendelsham, Hatherleigh, and staying in Millicent. On Sunday, we checked out Tantanoola and the Tantanoola Caves, mountain biked through Mount Gambier Forest and Browns Lake area, and finally on Monday, we dived Kilsby Sinkhole before driving back Telford Scrub Conservation Reserve and Penola. A great long weekend of sunny weather.

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I explored a bit around Robe, and then headed through Little Dip Conservation Park to see some of the amazing coastline and have sun fun no the beaches and sandy tracks. From there, we spent a bit of time in Beachport, enjoying an afternoon ice cream, and then continued the coastal road south briefly stopping in Rendelsham followed by Hatherleigh, and then then checked in our Millicent accommodation. We finished our day with a Mayura Station three course dinner.

After our breakfast in town, we took a walk along the nearby path, detouring past this geocache. Cool bike jumps, so it does seem like some nice riding paths around the area. The cache seemed rather exposed, since we caught sight of it during our approach. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Claudia for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/@jesswrigley stamp.

Mr and Mrs Parrot are on a bit of R&R.
Really needed a break after the last few months and why not have a beachside break.
So heading out to Robe.
Going to check out some caches in the area and chill.
Which is easy to do given the temperature
I think the clue should say turn at the stump

That time between Christmas and New Year when you don’t know what day it is and it doesn’t really matter as you don’t actually need to know....

We found this cache on our way to, from or while staying in Robe.
An absolutely beautiful part of the world!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all the CO’s who have supplied us with a cache to find, we appreciate the effort you have gone to.
Sorry for the generic log but time has taught us we rarely find the time to come back and write more detailed logs. Sorry!

We decide to stay a couple of nights near Robe on the way to Adelaide, staying in a gorgeous Limestone Cottage. This morning we headed off to find some caches in this gorgeous beach town.

Missmoo+2 were in Robe for a couple of days and geodad went off for a walk late in the afternoon to check out the sights. Some palatial "beach shacks" on the way to this one. Once at GZ, the cache was spotted pretty quickly and I had our name in the log in a jiffy. Replaced with a bit more natural camo than how I found it.

Thanks Claudia!

I have a terrible of starting logs after finding caches and forgetting to hit the submit button. Sadly, this means my logs are usually months behind. This is one of those cases, sorry guys.

Before we left Robe today we picked up another few caches, that we didn’t take yesterday. As recommended we took the river ferry to Wellington to drive the nicer route to catch the ferry to Kangaroo Island. On our way we logged some more caches. We arrived early and could catch an earlier ferry and a few boxes as well.

Thanks to all COs for placing and maintaining the boxes.

Found and logged together with Swerik, Mikaching and GPS-Wickie.

Thanks for the cache.

Today we left Robe to head towards Kangaroo Island. We were not in a rush to catch the ferry and so we could stop here and there to sign a couple of logbooks and turn the green boxes in to yellow smileys.

Thanks to Claudia for placing the cache.

From our base in Millicent, in the very good company of fellow Victorians Suscoe, we enjoyed the scenery and the history lessons, of a day along the coast including Robe and Cape Jaffa. Found after a short search

**Feedback to CO:** The hint is no longer relevant and should be removed please.

Thanks 'simoncarney' for placing this cache.

What a brilliant day Suscoe had today out and about with our good friends Phetlern.
Sunshine, some light drizzle here and there, some fog, a gentle breeze, sheep, cows, horses, foxes, seabirds and loads of wonderful countryside including coastal scenery and pastoral lands greeted us as we travelled from Millicent to Cape Jaffa and back again.
We enjoyed our day out and we found lots of caches.
Thanks to Claudia for this hide, we followed a longer shortcut today but found the cache in the end.
 
17-Apr-18
while on holidays, decided to go on a early morning walk and found this little one.
 
11-Apr-18
Our route eastbound took us today to this place. Every 25-35 km we picked a GC. But now we stay over Night at Robe and we was out to find some Caches.
Here it was a quick find.
Thank you for this one.
