31-Oct-12
Damn it
 
27-Oct-12
Looked and looked for 1.5 hours but no luck could not find. Suspect it has been taken.
 
22-Sep-12
Was in Mount Barker visiting my parents and my muggle dad decided to come along and see what all the fuss was about.

We looked the entire way around the area and didn't find a trace of the cache. Definitely seeing a trend here; recommend that the cache owner has a look-see.
 
31-Aug-12
Didn't find it. Looks like a lot of water has been here recently.
 
05-Jul-12
Looked everywhere for this one, but to no avail. Looking at previous logs, I'd say it is gone. Sad
 
10-Jun-12
Visited again today intending to drop more TB's. Unfortunately I couldn't see it anywhere near GZ. On the way out I found the almost empty container under a random bush with no lid.
 
10-Jun-12
Found the lidless container with only a few calling cards in it. Sad
 
18-May-12
Dropped in again today to leave a TB.

An afternoon walk for the Trio. Toddler Tardis was most exited when the container was spotted hiding in the bushes. He had fun rummaging through the contents while Mr Tardis signed the logbook. The logbook is very very full. Then everything was put back and the cached returned to its hiding place. Thanks for a nice short walk in the park.

Our group road trip to Adelaide from Melbourne went from four to two at the very last minute.  The only consolation of this was that I would be able to pick up more caches on the way, as well as complete the three multi caches that start in Melbourne and finish in Adelaide.  This cache was our first cache on our second day  in South Australia.  We were heading from Murray Bridge to Hahndorf and this caches wasn't far off out path, and given that I always enjoy a large cache, we decided to stop.  Bright and early this cache was and easy hunt and find.  I didn't have and teddy themed treasures, but I left some colored pencils.
Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache Team Ermalesh

Came back to Mt B to do a "gnome run" - collecting gnomes that are 'movable caches' on www.geocaching.com.au.
After picking up one in Laratinga wetlands we drove here to grab a few caches in the new subdivision.
A nice walk into a nice park.
Ingrid took phots whilst I made the find. Fooled her by ducking down out of sight as I signed the log and traded some bugs.
TFTC Team Ermalesh.

Ah! The smell of Diosma still lingers even after arriving home! lol We were about to give up when Eagle-eyed CJ spotted from afar. Nice and dry in there, which is surprising given all the rain we've had. Log was a little confusing as it now appears to be going backwards. I left it open at our log to save a little confusion maybe. It is almost full. Thanks Team Ermalesh! My kids loved the theme, Eilish. They decided to keep the teddies we had brought though, so we took nothing (except the thrill of the find AND the aroma!). Smile
 
13-Jan-11
we Started having a look around but due to the rain getting heavier and us getting wet we sooked out but will come again
looking forward to a teddy bear picnic next time

Another one of the many "I can't believe I couldn't find it" caches, because sounds like this one was a relatively easy one (especially considering that I found "Great Eastern Steeple cache" on the same day)!!!Red Face

In town today to attend the Highlander gathering at the showgrounds.
A good day out made even better by the caches that were found in the local area.
First find of the day and took the lid off the cache to find all the teddy bears sleeping.
Didn't wanna wake them so it was a quick sign and replace.
Nothing is more scary than a startled bear!
Didn't see the Catwoman TB in the cache and made no swaps today.
Cheers for a cool cache in a nice park.
