WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 13 - Elliston to Ceduna via Port Kenny, Streaky Bay and Smokey Bay. The day began after a very windy night with two coastal cliff drives. The Artwork was an added bonus along the way. I fell into a well laid trap to buy some extra food and made several side trips along well made unsealed dirt roads. In Streaky bay I looked around at the area we played a new years eve show back in 1983 or so. Once I was back on the main highway to Ceduna and Norseman, the caching slowed down as I have been this way several times before. I tried a great multi in Ceduna, but failed at the last hurdle on a gun before retiring for the evening.Lots of todays caches were roadside stops, even if I did do a few detours as well. The shoulders of the highway seemed wider today, so I did not often have to walk too far. Well, there is even less of this school left, but at least there is a cache to mark it.Thanks for the cache MalanDi46710.15 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & ROT13 A#1**Albida**

Another dream that's come true for the youth of this area, a school that's vanished and moved to Qld. Not sure how to reverse this trend but figure everyone and thing wants to go to Qld, especially while these cold winds are around. Thanks MalanDi for this pit stop on my way to Venus Bay.

Country, Coffee, Cats, Champagne, Chocolate, and Caching...
Careful caching as always with Jack helping, wherever we go.
It's a dangerous world filled with rusty old mint tins and objects falling from trees Surprised
...... but a cache a day still keeps the boredom away Wink

--------

Most of our caches are logged using the resources of gsak, garmin, and androids, occasionally AI too! (And a little rubber stamp Wink )

----------
Make sure that Travel Bugs are the Only bugs you share and pass on Wink (Covid cancels caching!)
Keep a safe distance - clean and cache the countryside Big Grin


It's awesome of all those placing quality caches out and about around our country areas,
in sensible safe places and containers especially! - it keeps our game fun, and interesting Cool

Of course we do appreciate if you actually did read all this extra addition to the log word count! There's a challenge somewhere out there, or so we've been told! You win a virtual smiley for the effort and getting to the end of the log Wink Maybe if I worked out where it is I could do it and go back to normal logs again ! If you find the challenge let me know and perhaps we can put an end to these long logs !!!

Big Grin [:o)] Wink


The end. For now...


... until next time! Wink

After spending the last 3 months in W.A. caravanning, caching and hunting wildflowers we are slowly making our way home to Adelaide. First visit here was over 25 years ago and have been up and down this way many times over the years. The last couple of times passing this way we missed out on a spot in the caravan park but this time were lucky. So off we go caching. T.F.T.C

During our new years break, jesswrigley and I headed to the Eyre Peninsula to travel around the various coastal towns. We started the trip with Jeep trouble, but then continued in our alternative vehicle without 4WD to stick to the main tourist roads where possible. We travelled south-west to Tumby Bay and Port Lincoln via Whyalla, Cowell, Cleve, Arno Bay; west across to Coffin Bay; and then north-west to Streaky Bay and Ceduna via Elliston, and Venus Bay. We then headed back east staying in Kimba via Poochera, Wudinna, Lock, and Darke Peak.

Today, jesswrigley and I continued our adventure from Talia to Streaky Bay. We made a stop at Venus Bay, and decided to leave the boating island/peninsula caches for another visit, to continue on to Murphys Haystacks. We then drove through Calca to Point Labatt to see the sea lions and seals, and then drove north via Sceale Bay. Finally, we spent part of the afternoon driving the Cape Bauer loop road visiting Whistling Rocks, which was a unique highlight!

A nice little piece of history. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks MalanDi for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

A 2 week tour of the West Coast started in Streaky Bay, then to Coffin Bay, then to Tumby Bay and finally a couple of days in Whyalla.

All caches were in good condition unless I've posted a Needs Maintenance log.

Lots of these old schools around and I think they all have a cache.
