Travelling with iluvtrekking from our home state of WA on a SA caching foray. Staying in Aldinga for a few days and ranging from there to grab some finds. Scored another beautiful day but the nights are still chilly. Perfect day to get on the rail trail. Thanks for the hide

Inside the cache was bubble fluid and a wand - you can guess what my partner and I did for the next five minutes.After realising we came out here to get geocaches and not blow bubbles, we signed the cache and returned home for the day.Find #245TFTC 3LG

One of four OTD October caches logged this morning whilst filling in some free time before having to return to the city. Great day for a walk amongst the vines, and nobody else on the trail during my visit today.All original containers along here; all in good condition with dry logs. Thanks for the cache and the series LB.

I was out for a walk today and looking for the caches in this series. I made my way in the direction of Willunga from McLaren Vale before walking the 4km back to the car. Most of the caches were found fairly easily, though a few presented a few more challenges as I was looking but not clocking the caches! A personal trackables were visited. TFTC LíB

Great Northern escape 2022 Day 181. Blackwood Day 5. After a difficult day caching in the wet, I decided to head back down south near Willunga to do some caches along the rail trail and the Labs around Willunga itself. It was not very busy, but there were several family groups on the trail at times.

I had an enjoyable ride along the trail today. The OTD caches were all found without problems, one of the others was a bit wet. It was interesting to see the back of some of these grapevine fields.

Thanks for the cache LíB

Out chasing numbers again and today it was the October OTD and the Bletchley series and anything else that seemed like a good idea. Managed to finish what I'd planned just on dark with over 60 finds and only 2 DNFs.

Camping at Mt Compass for Easter today Mr Felix decided to cycle from Willunga to Old Noarlunga picking off caches as he went. Great day out but boy was the cycle trail busy and by the time he finished it was 33degrees and a bit warm. [B)]

Down in what is easily the "Flavour Of The Month" for me this year... The Awesome!, McLaren Vale Wine Region [:x]
Not only for Geocaching but also for sampling the "Product" that this stunning part of SA has to offer {Already demolished a bottle of Sangiovese Rose 2019 from Chapel Hill Winery } [^]

I left home real early with my Deadly Treadly in the back of the GeoMobile so i can finish off the OTD October Series

Rode from Kangarilla Rd in McLaren Vale where i parked the GeoMobile to this the 9th one.

We have never been to Maralinga, and probably pretty pleased we didn't grow up there either. Good of the British to dirty our backyard instead of their own, grrr.
Not really sure if $13.5 million would have cut it in any sort of compensation or assistance to the aboriginals when the land was handed back to them. Bit like borrowing your mates lawn mower and giving it back broken, oh but with the coronavirus attached.
By the way we think the Operation names they gave them have no relevance ...... silly British.
Photo attached is of a REAL bomb!!!!
Thanks LiB for the cache, found it signed it and replaced it safe and sound as found TNLNSL

My caching goals for 2020. May as well aim high. Wink
Complete the Calendar to have found both a mystery and a multicache on every day. Should be able to do one probably not both. [^]
After filling the calendar to have a minimum of 5 caches per day last year, let's try for 11 this year. Surprised Possible but not probable. Razz
So today I just needed to find five caches including a multicache. Cool So once again Sal joined me for the journey down Willunga Way and another walk on the Shiraz Trail.

A nice quick find to start our walk along the track. Smile As the last finder stated the log is a bit damp but I was able to stamp it without problem. [^] Normally I would carry a spare but not today!

This series was the target, off I set, found all the ones that are still available in good condition unless stated otherwise.

Today I headed to McLaren vale to clean up a bit more of the area and mainly target the OTD series. The weather was crap and not the best day to be out in a bike for 2 hours whilst it’s belting with rain.
Managed to also run into 2ysTassies along the way.
