My 1st day of my trip heading to and around the Eyre Peninsular. Today was from Home to Applia. I left late so only a few finds today. This cache would be find number 1 of 8 for the day and find Number 1 in total for this trip away.

After leaving later than planned today so I skipped a heap of caches I had planned but this seemed as good as any place to start finding. Quickly located and signed then back on the road.

07-Sep-22
Out and about visiting parents closeby, so decided to do some caching while in the area.

I first look at another likely spot, having not read the description, find noting obvious, looking about I spy perhaps a better hiding location, and what do you know there is a cache just waiting to be signed.

Reading the description once I was home could have shortened my search slightly, so note to self read the description. Very Happy

Off on my next adventure and always time to stop and find a cache

On my way to Whyalla for a few days and I stopped here for a lunch break and would you believe there was a cache here. [^]

Didn't spot it on my first circuit but after taking off my sunnies there it was. Stamped the log and replaced, then ate my lunch and even watched a train go past while I was there. Big Grin

Thanks for the cache Freddo. Smile

Catching up on some late logs, now that I have time, while travelling.

We are on the road travelling up through central Australia and down the coast of WA. I hope to grab a few caches along the way.

Over visiting family for the long weekend and took the opportunity while they were engaged to do a few caches in the area. Planned to hit the Highway passed Crystal Brook, into Georgetown and back to Crystal Brook. Was an awesome day a variety of hides, some easily found, many took longer than should have. Only a couple of misses.
A nice quick find then back on our way to the next one. TFTC

Happened to stop at this rest stop just up the road on the opposite side from the one we stopped at last time we passed through here in July, by coincidence. Just a beautiful location. Thought i'd check for caches before leaving and fond this quick find only meters away from the car.

Found with @Hakentek. Photos are spoilers.

I’m lucky enough to travel for work and today finds me in South Australia.
After landing, my workmate and I made our way to Whyalla with obviously a few stops on the way. Needless to say my mate learnt about geocaching.

Following our farewell Quorn after the JLWE with LiB...
We are heading home and collecting a few smileys along the way...
I think they might have just put down some fertiliser in the nearby paddocks...
Thank goodness for a quick find & stamp of the logbook here so we can be on our way again...
TFTC Freddo Smile
 
07-Jun-19
Finished work at 1pm and then we got our selves packed up and off on the road to Quorn for the June Long Weekend. We were going for a few of the events but not for the game itself. We thought it would be a great trip to make for the long weekend with lots going on.
We didn't find very many caches on the way there as we wanted to get to the campsite before the sunset to get our tent up and have a sundowner beer. Then to the pub in time for the When Freddo met Sally event.
The road North was pretty busy heading to Port Augusta wonder why they still haven't made this dual carriageway the entire way.....
We only had time for 6 finds but every one counts and made for an enjoyable drive.
We had a chuckle at this one. No trainsexuals spotted here today and a nice quick find sign and replace. TFTC Freddo the Fast Goods.

Thanks
 
17-Jul-18
Only a short search. No trains. TFTC
 
10-Jul-18
It was more a case of lookout for backpackers in station wagons here today. Boy, they had completely emptied their vehicle and had things spread out everywhere. Maybe they were drying them, who knows??
At first we thought we wouldn't be able to get this one but then we realised that the GPS was actually taking us across the rest area away from them to another similar structure where the campervan provided great cover and the cache container was quickly located.
Thanks.
 
03-Jul-18
Well maybe the table is here only so that one can place a container under it so that other persons of unknown peculiarities can stop and wonder.
Not me, I'm a traveler of known qualities, dubious yes but known.
Tftc.
What was that, I think it was a road train.
 
24-May-18

02-Jan-18
A quick find in the obvious location.

I didn't see any trains, neither goods nor passenger. That's probably why I didn't see any trainspotters nearby. The bloke in the frock further along the parking bay seemed interested in other things.

Thanks Freddo.

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Was heading to a nearby work location and it was time for a break from driving so decided to stop at this stop and make the find. Parked close to GZ and started looking. Took longer than it should to locate the cache but locate it I did. Extracted log signed and replaced. Time now to continue the journey.
