Where the 773H is Kootingal?

I wanted to promote this event at the top of this entry, because the people who sent the postcards below feature in thepromotion image above. The princess in the dark blue is a yung geocacher named Gabby, Her geocaching name is aproprtiately "Gift of the gab" or G.O.T.G. for short. Her younger sister Sam is the fairy in the pink standing behind the huge pumkin. Her geocaching nick name is "Sam I am". I recently went on a geocahing event and met up with Sam and Gabby and thier dad "postman Pat", and whilst there we attempted a geocache that left the oldies gasping for air. I want to congratulate the young ones who attempted this cache as it was a mighty effort.



Oh and thanks girls for the realy great gifts, i wasn't expecting them... A "where the heck is Kootingal cap, and another pesky monkey to add to my collection of stuffed toy monkeys.

OOH Beer,and Crustaceans

A postcard from My Favorite "thing" - My cat at Mandunah, W.A.
the best part of the WA coast.
Happy Geocaching.

Is that cat trying not to get caught stealing an apple, or is it looking in disgust at its owner for putting her on the Isralie army diet?

Can You dig it? - in Kapunda you can!


Firstly let me apologize for taking so long to post these on the blog.. and for the image quality. My scanner has mysteriously refused to work, so i resorted to digital photography.
This post card is also from Postiegirl06 as well.

She writes

Kapunda, South Australia's Oldest Mining Town ( Copper)

Here's the postcard of Map The Miner in Kapunda S.A.
You may have seen him in the news recently - someone tried to set fire to him. I deliver the mail here on Thursdays and Fridays. There is a cache in the bushes here( marked with arrow) called Can You dig it?by the Rav 4 Raiders,
Cheers.

Matmob sent this to me, they write,
Eudunda is known as the valley of Hidden Treasures, so we thought it apropriate to have a few caches around the place! There are now 46 within a 20Km radius. We own the Eudunda P.O.
