Thanks for sharing this cache with me A quick and easy find on the way back from Emu Bay Cheers Fromm Tumut NSW

Found with The Giant !

Found it. Cache has disinterested. Put paper in a plastic bag and replaced in remains of jar.

Needs a new container.

Amanda is working for a while in KI and Ive come down to visit for a week. Doing our best to discover every cache on the island during our time. Walking and driving around Kingscote today to explore and grab as many as we can.An easy roadside find. TFTC

Whrend des Aufenthalts in Sdaustralien gefunden. Danke frs Zeigen dieses speziellen Ortes und den Cache!

Visiting the island for the day, so decided to knock off a few caches. TFTC

We have arrived on Kangaroo Island for a 5 day break. We first had this trip planned several years back but that year KI had an extreme fire situation happen and we were offered a refund on our trip which we took. We have waited this long so that the island could regrow and show herself at her best.We have been using geocaching to guide us around , today is our final day into our break we can certainly attest to her beauty. The caching has been interesting and we have many earth caches to write up and send to COs.All the caches we have found so far are in good condition. We did replace one log sheet.SL TFTC

TFTC! Touring with focused expeditions and enjoying some geocaching during down time!

Had a look here but cleary we were barking at the wrong trees because we couldn't spot it.

During our two-month trip through New Zealand and Australia, we arrived in Victor Harbor yesterday and today we travel to Kangaroo Island.After we have checked in at our accommodation there is time to explore the area. This cache was not found.**Grand Voyagers**, thanks for the cache.

Notre roap trip se poursuit aujourd'hui Kangaroo Island et notre arrive Victor Harbour, nous jaunirons quelques points sur notre parcours. Log en team Mado.TFTC trouve sans souci. Plus de couvercle.

Suite de notre priple en Australie : 2eme journe sur Kangaroo island. On logue en team Mado. Merci pour la cache. Trouve sans problme mais la bote n'a plus de couvercle.

Geoturtle37 and I decided to take a bit of a detour on our way back to Melbourne after the Feb 29th SA Mega. We have wanted to go to KI for so long and after this trip, will most certainly be back. We could only spare one day and we cached as much as we could but didn't have time to have a good look around. The cache was found with no problems. Interesting history. Thanks for placing this cache for all to enjoy.

Well after a whirl wind tour of Tasmania to help with 3 challenges that Im working on, I got back in late Tuesday night then packed the Geowagon and headed off to SA early Wednesday morning to attend the Leap Year Mega and to also tick off some LGAs along the way as well.Well after crossing the border the other day and staying in Millicent, Wellington, Cape Jervis and the Kingscote last night its now time to slowly head back towards Penneshaw to catch the ferry back to the mainland.Kangaroo Island has been on my bucket list for years and Roaming Howie had to squeeze back into the Geowagon put up with my driving and poor navigation for another day.Continuing along with our Geocaching expedition and visiting the Flinders Chase NP in the South West corner of the islandyesterday was one of the highlights of the Island.We will see what we can find on the slow trip back today and I didnt realise that the island so so big and I also didnt realise that Kangaroo Island was the first permanent settlement of South Australia even if it lasted only 4 years.The cache was soon located and we added our names to the log and on to the next one.Thanks Grand Voyages TFTC.

We are on a trip around Adelaide and Kangaroo Island. Beside visiting beautiful places we also do our hobby geocaching. We found and signed this cache in good condition. Grand Voyagers, thank you for this cache, regards xizat-NL. Take care, this hobby can develop to an addiction.

21179During our great trip around the world we arrived in Australia after visiting Canada, US, and some places in the Caribean Sea and Central America as well as Fiji. Besides lots of sightseeing, we can't do without caching, of course. That's why we also passed by this place, searched for the cache, found it and successfully signed the logbook.Thank you for hiding and maintaining the cache. Only thanks to dedicated owners is this beautiful game possible.Wir danken alle Cache-Ownern fr ihren Einsatz, denn ohne die Gemeinschaft ist dieses tolle weltweite Hobby nicht zu realisieren.

On a road trip from Perth to Canberra with a few side trips for LGAs. TFTC

Easy find

Grabbed this cache on my way to a 6 day seakayaking expedition along the north-west coast of KI. Good that this was replaced as we DNF'd it a year ago. Thanks for maintaining this one!

TFTC. Also found on ground. Returned it there as it obviously wants to be there. Such folly. Needs new lid at the very least. Left lid

Found around the back, a small folly from the sign. Lid broken but signed and returned as safe as possible

Thanks for the cache guys

Found it on the ground, exposed. Something has had a nibble of it. Put it back in the tree. TFTC

Interesting story. TFTC

TFTC

In all our travels we would not have even thought to travel to this location.
(HaHa). In your dreams, these cachers do.

Find # 3374

Quick find and sign at Turners Folly probably the least impressive of all the follies , but worthy of a cache and a story. TFTC

Bit of a search but soon found. TFTC

Quick find but was on ground weather May have blown out with recent wind. We put where we thought & tried to make secure thanks

Day 2 of a 6 night visit to the Island. Today the weather was perfect. We had of course hoped to find ever hide while we eere over here but alas after much searching we came up empty handed. As a supposedly easy hide it seems that it may have gone. Many possible hidey holes searched but still nothing. We can only hope that the owner checks and replaces the cache before we head back to the mainland.

Found by The Boofs while on holiday TFTC . Put our smudge mark on the wet log book.

Mr and Mrs Parrot took a trip overseas to Kangaroo island for the week.
We had a lovely time finding caches and interacting with the people selling produce and food to the public.
It fabulous to see the green starting to come back into the fire ravaged areas. We had hired a house in Kingscote and ventured out each day in a different direction to see the sights and what the island had t off.
We also picked up 60 odd caches along the way.
My thanks for the quick responses to the Geocaches and the virtual cache which we sorted out before logging.
It was good to be able to complete Wonders of the world and become an Ultimate Explorer during my stay.

This cache appeared missing.
After some correspondence back and forth with the owner I was able to confirm they do want to continue maintaining the cache and they were happy for me to replace it for them.
So I went out and put this one back.

I also couldn’t find this cache.
Owner contacted and replacement discussed.
This cache will be enabled when maintenance completed.
Tchingal

Cache has been replaced and is good to go.

No luck for us TFTC

Came back with geohubby and still no luck

Will get this checked ASAP. Thanks for letting us know. It should be an easy find.

I must be blind looked for 20min, too many places it could be. Don’t understand hint but liked info in description. Was wondering what a folly was

We were on the Island with TubbyBooBoo and ZoBo01. Well this cache was a surprise, not where we first thought and then we had to do the ant dance and eventually located the cache and signed the log. This all happened way to early in the morning. TFTC

Found on a cool but lovely morning. Unfortunately the log is saturated so needs maintenance. TFTC.

Log is saturated. I tried to sign it but it was too wet.

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

Found at 18:07 by Olga while I waited for a stream of cars to pass before I could get out of the car.

TFTC busy road

Found It!
A quick find here although it smells like something has died nearby.

thank you Grand Voyagers for placing the cache

Day 2 on the trip to KI and geocaching . Today was mainly around and between Kingscote and American River and a few other. This is a generic log and thank you to the CO for the placement of the cache. Thoroughly enjoyed the time locating them. TFTC Grand Voyagers

Caching around the America River area and finding lots of interesting places as well as a few caches. Thanks to the COs for placing them and enhance our enjoyment of caching. Happy hunting ...

Sorry for the late log but I thought I had logged this when I found it. Second one for the day that didn't get properly logged. I'll have to check my GPS and my phone. We have driven past this location a hundred times but never stopped for a closer look. Silly me. The cache is in good condition and an easy find. TFTC Grand Voyagers

After finishing up my second stint on the Island for the bushfires, had an opportunity to grab a few caches before heading home. TFTC

Having some R&R on Kangaroo Island, staying with Dunmowin during the Christmas New Year week. Yesterday we had to leave the property we were staying on and relocate to the Kingscote Oval Recovery centre as the fires were getting close, so we played it safe. We spent the day just sightseeing around Kingscote and cleaning up a couple of caches around town. This was a quick find. TFTC

Coming out to get this one was a good excuse to get out and stretch the legs! Thanks for the hide Grsnd Viyagers.

Another interesting find. I enjoyed gaining more local knowledge. Tftc

Was a windy day so decided to have a easy day geocaching and enjoying some Kangaroo Island site. TFTC

Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children. Where ever possible, we will maintain your cache as we travel.

We are here visiting, house and farm sitting for three months. There are only 88 caches on the island. Hope we get smilie faces on all of them.

Our current house sit is in Kingscote. We are caring for a very switched on kelpieX, Hamish.

1st Day of Summer, and it is way to cold. Hamish was suffering from cabin fever, so we decided to a) go for a drive to b) find a cache or two and c) wander some bitumen roads that we had not yet done (just finished cleaning the car) and finally d) visit KIS

Quick drive by with an interesting story. Hamish stayed in the car. Thanks Grand Voyagers for the excuse to get out of the house
.

An easy drive by with the expected camo rocks.

TFTC again Grand Voyagers

TFTC the hardest part was avoiding all the traffic

Trouvée rapidement.
Merci pour cette cache.
Bonjour de la France On the road again....

****************
Found quickly. Thank you for this cache. hello from France

Quick find. Thank you.

No problems parking safely off the road or finding the cache

TFTH

Although we found it. There is no real safe place to pull up. Cars are moving fast. Not a very safe place

Done

Quickly located on a great day out!!! Thanks Grand Voyagers for the hide!!

Today was our last day on KI so the plan was to potter around the northern part and see a few places we hadn't been to yet... and find some caches of course. First stop was this one as we left town... a quick and easy find that took me longer to work out what the date was today!

Thanks **Grand Voyagers** for putting this one here.

Found by The Marathon Man and pnutbeagle on our 3-month Australia holiday after travelling from snowy and cold Northern Ontario Canada.

Finally found some time to get caught up in my logs - we are back in Canada now so time is available to log.

Please see The Marathon Man's Log for our experience finding the cache

Sorry for the late log - trying to get caught up on our cache logs

Found by The Marathon Man and pnutbeagle on our 3-month Australia holiday after travelling from snowy and cold Northern Ontario Canada. Now trying to log a week worth of geocaching finds

The cache was found as we travelled around Kangaroo Island KI, SA. Today we travelled from Stokes Bay, KI then ending the day near Emu Bay, KI, SA. This was one of 1 DNF's and 21 finds today - Most of the finds were quickly found.

TFTC a quick find along our journey.

Folly is OK. Thanks Grand Voyager.
