The Dream & The Reality Henley Beach, South Australia, Australia
By Team BaggyGreens on 26-May-06. Waypoint GCW8KM

I do remember the area use to be very bushy until the council cleared it up. They like to do that a lot so it really keeps geocache hiders on their toes in this council area.

Times changed and a new one has blossomed. GC1W026 'Brigin' I hope will be around for a long time [^]

I got to the spot just before I ran out of time so I didn't get to look but now I see the latest post.

plz look at this one it is not there

i rode past the location yesterday and decided, as i always do to check on this one,
the bush it was usually in was gone, and although I didn't look too hard I couldn't see it anywhere, unless you know otherwise you should probably check this one, If nessecary I can replace it for you

Caching with Konie and The Wonderstuff. We couldn't zero in on this one today.

I'm sure it's around here somewhere, but a quick look didn't find it, and an extended search in an exposed spot is not to my liking so.....

Another cache that is located in a great park with a ton of potentially great, secluded hiding spots, yet GZ puts you right on the edge at the road in a very exposed position.
Didn't bother.

This cache was found as part of my City and surrounding suburbs invasion. Thanks to all who placed caches allowing me find nearly 200 caches in 7 days.

found ,but not where the cryptic hint indicates (best to ignore it)
tftc

This was a very easy find - a bit exposed I think, but we tried to put it back as carefully covered as possible - I hope we don't get any really strong winds though!
Last find for the day.

Found by Swampy. Thanks to all the cachers that placed caches I found during this "Fly-in, cache, reunion, cache, fly-out" trip.

Cache still out in the open and not where the clue indicates. Put in back where it was as I am not sure whether it was purposely placed there. May be worth an owner recce.

Cheers

Found @ 1610, with MADSTARS. The cache itself was out in the open. We tried to hide it a bit better upon replacing it.

Found cache with Pensive Traveller....

It was out in the open... Unreal....

Thanks for the stop.....

Where is the next one... they are starting to get faster...

Number 173... count down to 200...cmon

nice day in the suberbs

Hi
I found this in broad daylight without using GPS. The cache was not hidden at all. Muggles everywhere. Signed Log (It is very full) & left Smiley Badge. Had a few seconds to hide it again between Muggles. The owner of this cache might like to check that it has not crept too far from its intended abode?
Regards. Ray.

A quick find on the way home from a early morning fire at Royal Park. TNLNSL.

Also dropped TB scooter off here for wessarah to collect and take further north with them

Gathered TB Salemi scooter from josan08 and will take it wine tasting with us in the midnorth.

So far so good today, quick find. Took superball (geokid is getting quite a collection of these!!!!) and left princess jasmine. TFTC

4th today. Having fun. We left fling thing (frisby) took blue dinosaur.TFTC

Joan was with me for the day. We found it nice and easy. Lovely house.
Thanks Team BaggyGreens for the cache.

Found nice and quickly. Nice little park. Signed in the middle of the book, as it is rather fullish. TNLN, thanks Team BG.

Nice easy find, some muggle activity at Netball courts across the road.
Took the French Curves travel bug, left an IKEA pencil
--Needs a new log book-- it's rather full!

I never did finish the multi that used to be here, now I can claim a find. And it it is good to see that not all urban caches are micros. L dinosaur and French Curves TB in this historical spot. Thanks TBG.

A quick easy find. TFTC

Took the clue too literally for a moment of two before realising how big the cache was and then it was easy. TFTC Team Baggy Greens.

Nice place to bring us. Found on the long hot day of caching fun with Foxzami.

interesting location. TFTC

Found the cache at 11am. Nice easy and interest about this area. SL. Thanks Team BaggyGreens for organising the cache and hunt.

Would never have thought there would have been a cache hidden there.

A quick easy find for our 750th cache. Left a magnifying glass and a klem bear, took nothing as the container looked as though it needed a bit of stocking up. Thanks Team BaggyGreens.

Dont know how i didnt find this last time i was here, but today it was an easy find. bit disapointing to see a decent size cache so empty though, when you find smaller ones that are packed to the brim

TNLNSL

Find number 1228. Found while on a mad 24 hour dash with Mr MadMyers and Everlasting doing the driving. This cache was one of our 189 today. Thanks for placing the cache for us to find. Cheers The Nanks

Out on a night long night of caching with MrTheNanks - we found this one. On holidays from Queensland - what better way to spend a good few hours than caching!! Cache found, log signed - now onto the next cache! Thanks for the South Australian cache!

found with sootie could not find to start with
well hiden in the obvious spot

Took a bit of looking around. Didn't really expect it to be such a big cache! Left some unreal Aussie Dollars.

Well - the clue gave this one away. This was found very quickly and it was to be the last of 8 for the day. TNLN. Cheers.

Found at 11:45. A nice area for a walk. Checked out the house afterwards.

Spotted this one before I got out of the car,IT WAS LAYING ON THE FOOTPATH! Picked it up expecting to find it emptied but all appeared to be in order. Returned in what I hope was the original place.Still no GPS.

A relatively quick driveby. Still not that many people out and about at 6am. Cheers Gav [1463]

Finally getting around to logging the record breaker Thanks!

Kiwi Cache Raid: #66 @ 05:59. Unfortunately no time to inspect the Grange. I would like to come back one day to check out these places at a more leisurely pace. Many thanks Team BaggyGreens.,,,,,,,,,

5:59:00 a.m. A quick find by the NZ cache record team.
Thanks to all Adelaide cachers for placing these caches to allow us to get the record.

5:59 a.m. This cache was found on our record-breaking attempt to find the most caches in a 24 hours period; we ended up finding 195 all up.

Thanks to all the cachers who placed these interesting caches in Adelaide.

I only wish we could have spent more time appreciating the locations that we visited on our whistle stop tour.

Kiwi Cache Raid: #66 @ 05:59
Thanks to all Adelaide cachers for helping with our quest.

A quick and easy find when we visited. TFTC.

Must have chosen our time wisely.

TFTC

Well, we didn't find it, but Nathan, a young aboriginal boy, spotted it. WE EXPLAINED GEOCACHING AND HOPE THAT HE WILL RESPECT THE SITE, AND NOT BE A MUGGLER. TNLN. Piggen (from Sverige)and his Aussie friends say goodbye for now, but we'll be back!

Had been here before before we were officially caching, so nevr logged it. Came here today to the same spot to claim it ourselves. Took a pig key ring and left a kinder surprise. TFTC

Found this cache without the GPS at 7pm. I only had the Google map to go by. Took Pooh LN. There were a large number of items in the cache.

Found fairly easily after a day at West Lakes for work. Ended up having to take it back to the car because the writing instrument wasn't working for me, and from that point there seemed to be muggles everywhere! Council trucks looking for a dog or something similar. I ended up taking it for a drive in my car to look for another cache nearby, which turned out unsuccessful. I then was able to quickly return this one to its rightful spot, as it was much quieter when I returned.
L new log book and butterfly letter holder, T Jumbo cards

Sturt was a favourite Character at school for me. Would have liked to have looked inside the building.
Great to see a larger cache with room to put something bigger in it.
Took the marbles and left the jumbo playing cards.
Thanks,
Moses on the move

A great quality, well stocked cache - great to find after doing lots of little ones. [^][^][^]
Checked out our 'other left' to find this one.
Took giraffe.
Left bag of marbles.
SL. Enjoyed a walk in the park.
Thanks TBG - Enjoyed this one lots!

Found after a short explore of the area. Took Simpsons Disc, Left Backyard Explorer. TFTC.

This cache nearly cost me a lot of money
Did the hard yacka looking for the cache, following the hints to no avail. Why do I always make it so hard on myself? Looked up - and there it was in plain sight - must have had some muggle activity. Picked up TB, and attempted to return it to where it should be according to the hints.
And the money? Returned to the car to find my PDA missing - quick trip back to the GZ to retrieve it - it had fallen out of my pocket into the bushes whilst I scurried around!
Alls well that ends well...

quick drive by. TNLN.

An easy find on our Saturday Night Coastal Run!

Nice spot, easy find today, good size acommodations to leave this TB in.

Eighth find of nine for the day. Easy find, nice hide.

Found with a heap of geokids in tow. Not far from where eldest matmob geokid started school many years ago. Thanks for the memories. T donut king voucher and erasers, L dolphin and chopsticks rest. TFTC

easy night time find for this one! looks like a great place. thanks team baggy greens, from polky

Third for the night, no trouble finding, Great Historic Spot, I'll have to come back when its open and check it out, TNLNSL TFTC

10th find of the morning and probably the easiest. The cache was quite visible, no doubt as a result of the pruning. Tried to hide a little better. TNLN thanks baggy greens.

This cache MUST have been found by muggle council-workers when the foliage around the sign was trimmed. Very nice of them to have left it! Thanks Baggygreens.

Caching and gardening go hand-in-hand. We grabbed a couple of cuttings of the white-flowering fluffy bush here.

TN(except cuttings)LNSL.

The cfoords were loaded in the GPS but no other info to hand so thought I may have had trouble - must have been lucky as found quite easily. Never knew this historic icon was here, hopefully can visit again for a proper look. TNLNSL Thanks

Cache seems quiet comfortable in its current spot - well hidden from the casual eye. Interesting looking place - will have to visit when open.

Took: tweenie teapot
Left: snowman

TFTC!

What's with the council workers!! had to wait until he did the next lap on the lawnmower! Good camo!

TN
L Giraffe

It amazes me to this day how such a simple camo job can make a cache totally invisible to not only muggles, but to cachers like meself [^]
I was convinced after a couple of minutes and reading the hints, that there was no way the cache was still there. Especially after finding a stray ziplock bag nearby [:o]
But strangely enough, I refused to give in that easily and lo and behold a very large, very well comoflauged container did eventually reveal itself!
The dream for me is that I will find an Adelaide cache easily
The reality is I won't [:o]
Keep up the good work Adelaide.
I must find a stockist of stuffed frog miniatures which I can stick needles into

[Finally knocked off 2nd closest to home (2km) that we still hadn't done. Quick find, at a location that we visit at least once a year, when we play carols here. Sometimes the planning of those nights fit in with "The Dream & The Reality" too.
Signed log by river, whilst mini Calumphers enjoyed the ducks.
Took Nemo, Left Carl. TFTC

Cheers]
Moved cache slightly so it is better hidden, as very exposed in front. Now behind.

Cache was far away from the GPS and the clue, but managed to find it in the end after some perseverance! Tried to cover it as well as we could! Nice camo! TFTC!

I agree with Dayrere that the cache is hard to hide - this makes it easy to find. It is readily visible to any passing muggle with sharp eyes. I did my best to cover it with the limited material available.
The name of the cache becomes apparent after a visit to the nearby museum.
T: Robot
L: Fish

Walking past and found contents scattered
Bushes are drying and thinning out
Hard to hide well

Tenth of 14 finds on the way to Adelaide Airport in company with acts2youthgroup. There were no muggles around, except for a jogging female. She crossed to the other side of the road. I wonder how she knew we were Victorians to be avoided? We found this one at 1045. I made no exchange. I see that a subsequent log reports that the cache contents were scattered! I can assure everyone that we re hid the cache properly, and unless someone was watching us surreptitiously, I can't understand how it happened. [?] Thanks to Team BaggyGreens for the cache. Cheers, dak.

Another find for The Rebel Alliance, L.L.T.R.A

Eleventh of Fifteen cache finds on day four of the "The Big Adelaide Assault" the cache was found at 10:45 in company with dak's Emu Mob. This was another nice find, I am still wondering about the name of the cache, this place looked very barren and the plant life looked very dry.

Thanks Team BaggyGreens

Dropping a geocoin. Don't come looking for it. It was picked up immediately by Acts2YG. I'll delete this note when he grabs it electronically.

Found @ appropx. 18:45

3rd for the day.
A quick dash around adelaide after work, to pickup a few outstanding caches before I have to return to Melbourne.

What an ballsy Hide!! Found the prize basically right out in the open. Had stashed a little bt better.

Took bandana
Left figurines x2.

Thanks for the hunt.

Good hiding place - we have walked past many times and not suspected anything!

Took key, left Tweenie head

Aidan found this one! Was our first geocache

I don't whether it was because he was impatient with me or he just wanted to help, but Albida pointed me in the right direction for this one. TNLN.

Found (almost where hint said it was, but more right) busy time of night, lots of muggles walking their dog. No sign of coin, has someone else taken it and not moved it on?? TNLN TFTC

Found with the Coffees and Mystery Inc

Found with the Coffees and Mini

A good driveby but the road was very busy even in the middle of the night.
Took GeoCoin,
Thanks Team BaggyGreens for the cache,
Regards Mr.Coffe and the "Dream the nightmare on elm street" Clan.

The first for the day, a tricky little hide. The neighbors seemed quite intersted, but went inside evetually.

6th find for today's bike ride.
Took waiter's friend (bottle opener), left Pooh Bear of Klem's Mob, taken earlier today from levicacheon - GCYCNX

OOPS.... missed logging this one when I tried to do a catch up a few years ago. Found while a member of Beakers Bunch.
Thanks

Found aith the help of the B*DS. Had looked for this one before with no luck but managed to come up with the goods this time.
TNLNSL
Thanks

Found easily by Glenn at 8pm

The drought is having an effect on the hiding location, was fairly visible with the sticker on the top, so I turned it upside down when I replaced it.

TNLNSL TFTC

Here's one Robmc and I did but I nearly missed it in my logs. Wonder how many others I might have missed over my caching career. Not too many I hope. Anyway no swaps as far as I can remember but it's all done.
Thanks.

Once again much easier in the daylight.

took tiny 'pooh' mug.

left wooden bangle.

Found on second attempt with Missdfy. First time it was night a bit a sun light really makes a difference. Only muggle was a guy hitting golf balls on the grass, is that allowed?
Anyway good hint.
Swapped Homer in the cache for my Donkey Kong and Skizm Card.

#28 Found without GPS

Not too many muggles around late at night when we arrived. Read the board and a quick search had the cache in hand.
Thanks, Robmc.

I didn't know that this was here and the name of the cache now makes sense too! Thanks for the cache.

A real dream come true to find this one. TFTC

Nice easy find, pretty much a drive by. No one around except a little dog, and a kid fishing. Took Willy Worm TB, Left Mrs Potts key clip and a key (separate).
