May 18, 2024 3:37 PMWas going to do the Ad Lab nearby but was getting a bit late for the family to walk so far. So we settled for this bonus Trad instead ( I say bonus as I didn't notice it on the map earlier). Clever camo meant cache and log was found in good condition. Geodaughter wasn't impressed with all the spider webs in the box so couldn't be convinced to take a map! Tftc anyway!

On the 14th of September, 2019, a youthful but slightly bored Otter googled geocaching. With 30 minutes he found his first cache, and the rest is history. As I commence my fifth loop of the calendar, Ive piled everything in the car and have no set agenda except to be back by the 20th. Should be fun.Pictured is me having a wildlife encounter with an adorable monotreme. Shortly after that photo I had a close encounter with a dangerous reptile, which shifted the mood of the afternoon. Adventure Lab abandoned! But I made a find here, so worth the adrenaline rush after all. And the attributes did warn me. Thanks for the cache NiceNannies.

I somehow managed to be lucky enough to win a great state voucher for $50 off accommodation. The idea being to put some money back into regional communities after the pandemic. Uni and Medusa and I went away for a caching trip around Kingston using the voucher to stay at the caravan Park. We spent lots of money on diesel and food so the voucher did it's trick.
We stopped and found this cache on the way.

Find # 10587

Found with sharkiefan.

Back in SA, caching around the area with out base being Millicent.
It was 2 years ago on the March long weekend we were last over here. (That was pre covid/lockdown days.)
We had a great time, back then, and when we got home it was only 20days later Vic went into full covid lockdown mode.

The world has changed somewhat since then, but caching still gets us out n about.

And it is kind of fitting that we are back here for a planned interstate caching trip to get us both back into an area we enjoy (not ta mention I always enjoy the SA caches n trails)

This trip we are both armed with some new gear for the new trails. And i had a few caches targeted to help achieve some challenges and stats.

Once again it was a great little break from the norm of life back home.

Today we toured from Millicent, hit the coast n made our way to Kingston SE. Then cached back to Robe, checked out some camping areas and finishing the day in Beachport with Ad Labs.

We are slowly making our way down from Adelaide to Portland concentrating on Adventure Labs but also picking up anything else that is close by. We spent the night in Meningie and are now heading towards Millicent.

Diane was on a phone call when we pulled up here so I headed off by myself and after completing the lab the phone rang on my way back and Diane had spotted there was also a trad in here. It would be great if they could get the two apps to work simultaneous. I had a guess at where it might have been located, it seems strange that the lab didn't start there. I was quite impressed when my guess was correct and even more impressed when the well hidden cache was found in the first place I looked. I'm happy to say that the log book now contains our name. Unfortunately it is very full and being in the company car we didn't have any spares.

Thanks NiceNannies for the cache.

try not to get tetanus from rusty mint tins and don't fall out of trees...
