An easy find and retrieval on a sunny afternoon Just need to be a bit deft and not thick fingered.!TFTC
Today was a nice drive with naughtybunny on a really (TM) nice day. We explored the Port Adelaide area and was quite annoyed when we realised (TM) the Harts Mill Markets weren't on, even though the website said it was. Bloomin unreal (TM)! Anyways, we wandered around and saw some people on the wharf with reels (TM) but no fish. Reality (TM) was there wouldn't be much fish in the water here. Then we walked to this cache. The mural was pretty surreal (TM) with what it represented. The cache was found real (TM) quick as there weren't too many hiding spots where this could have been. We were definitely relieved (TM) this wasn't an area saturated with 5-star puzzles which were unrealistic (TM) and impossible to solve. TNLN. Cheers.
One of my very few BFE found logs, because I don't have much of a puzzle brain.TFTC BFE
After many years away from geocaching it was nice to start off again with a find.
Found it in the first place we looked, but didn't look properly. So after looking elsewhere we went back to where it should be. It was thereThanks Bob
Tricky but satisfying!!Looked too high at first. Out caching in Port Adelaide today in the chilly weather with James0116 and Little Fingers.James had found this one and did his best not to give it away, giving hints when we got stuck on tricky hides like these.
Wow! This was fun! Tool prepared and used! Thank you for the hide. Favourite point today
Over from Perth for a few days to attend the Leap Day Mega. After the big day yesterday, today's plan was to grab a few caches in Semaphore near the event, then take a slow winding drive back to the hotel via a select few caches, ad labs and LGAs. This was one that I stopped off at along the way. A coach was parked up across a bunch of parking bays so had to do a recce first to make sure GZ didn't have an audience. Turns out the coach was empty & idling... and the driver was reading a book. So I nipped over to make a quick find Cool wall. TFTC
Container was well poisoned for a good retrieve at this interesting wall. Thank you, Bob From Elsewhere; cache #4327.
Chooo ooo [Found] with youban and dty73 on our trip to SA to attend the Leapyear mega!Thanks Bob From Elsewhere!
Day2 with Tankengine and Youban on our Adelaide Leap Year Mega trip. We did a good handful of caches, caught up with friends and family and all without a dnf. This cache: A nice quick find. Tftc!!!
Saw all the murals as we arrived yesterday so nice to see a series to highlight some. Hoping for a prop free find and do it was, all good and replaced as found First full day in town with work having arrived late yesterday evening, but still on NZ time so was up real early this morning. A full Ad lab set and a couple of warm up caches were just the thing to get the area recce done. Back in time for a brew and off ferrying hire cars for later use. Thanks to all COs.
Spending a few days being a tourist in Adelaide before Ms M heads home.We came out to visit this historical area and find the AdLabs. This was on our route back to the car. We enjoyed reading the thought provoking statements amongst the art. TFTC
Out, trying to find a few geocaches while my niece is at a kayak practice session.No problems, finding this one.
Found it! Quick find here after reading the description.Today is forecast to be fairly warm so headed to the coast with the aim of finding as many caches as possible starting from North Haven and heading south along the coastline. After reaching Semaphore I ended up finishing the day in the Port Adelaide area. TFTC!
TFTC! Easy find on a nice Saturday afternoon after finding a few other caches in the area.
Nearly didn't find this one. Then I nearly didn't get it. Then nearly wasn't able to return it BUT all nearlys became over due for a smile so obtained that, and we're muggled out by another catcher just to add to the frivolity! TYFTC SL TN LN
Lomg fingernails helped intead of wire hook. Also, ziptie could be pulled it out. With langers56
The cache has been replaced and is now a small magnetic eclipse container with a cable tie to grab hold of.
Please consider the next finder and don't push it too far up the pipe

Anyone can try and get the cache out of the hole and find and log the cache.
I may be able to fix it soon.

Well, I followed the instructions in the description and I failed.
I am sure the cache has been replaced with the loop up.
I did have another container with me but the magnets were too big for the hole.
Therefore the cache remains disabled until I can make another container that will fit the hole.

I will disable the cache until I can try and release it from the pipe.
The cache is there apparently but people are not following the instructions that are in the description, if they are followed I am sure the cache will come out of the pipe in the corner.
***If the container has been replaced too high or upside down, It is possible to use a piece of coat hanger type wire with a right angle bend, and on the side of the container push the wire past the container then turn the wire so that it is across the end and pull the cache down.***
Good Luck.

Please replace the container with the lid at the top and the loop facing down.

May have found it. But didn’t have the necessary tools to get it. Not easily accessible.
no luck here today. It seemed an obvious place to hide a cache, but despite a grope, nothing felt.
Had some time to kill before a meeting so a geocache to be bagged. Using a TOTT I could see the cache, but alas could not reach it, perhaps a second TOTT would have been useful today. Not sure if I can officially log this as I didn't sign the sheet.... Tftc and the art
Difficult to get out of it's spot but found it in the end. TFTC and the extra hint.
Trees are no longer here so if the cache was hidden in one of them it's not here
I headed to Port Adelaide for the antique fair and afterwards it was time for treasure hunting of a different kind. I had a pretty good idea where to look for this one and was rewarded with the cache quite quickly. Just as I was returning the cache a lady was walking along and she clocked that we had the same backpack. Well - that turned into quite the chat about hiking gear! Got to love random chats

P.S. I knew I was a little behind with the cache logging but 4 months... oops!

So I asked Meggs what she wanted to do for Mothers day....Cache of Course!!! OOh and somewhere nice for lunch.. So we headed out toward the Port area to grab some caches and have Lunch!! Oh Oh..We tend to avoid BFE caches as they are way above our heads! Thankfully this was a rare easy one! TFTC
Found myself in the area today with time to kill, so why not tackle a few Bob caches! “Interesting” paintings until I walked further up the road and understood the significance of the works. It then all made sense. I don’t think I would have found this one without the hint! (Cache condition = Good) TNLN SL Thanks for the cache BFE.

A day out on the bike to pick up a few caches. The sun has even made an appearance
