Location:
Kuluin is a suburb near Maroochydore in the Sunshine Coast LGA. The first inhabitants of the Maroochy/Kuluin district were the Aboriginal people of the Gubbi Gubbi / Kabi Kabi language group. The locality takes its name from an Aboriginal word in the Kabi language meaning black swan.
Kuluin State School is the only school in the locality.
There are a number of parks in the area, such as Martins Creek Bushland Conservation Reserve with its nearby Geocache "Long live the Swans" GCAFAZ5.
Technical details:
This Kaffee Kache is an interactive mystery geocache. It requires a smartphone. It is a unique way of stringing together virtual and physical waypoints. Thus, it is part virtual cache, part multicache, part puzzle cache, and part adventure lab. What more could one want?
A Kaffee Kache does not require any specific hardware or software - just internet access and a browser. There is no need to download any Cartridge or App.
A Kaffee Kache also has a Teamwork attribute. Because an Intercache works live across web-based activities, having a friend or two could save you the intricacies of internet drop-out or phone freeze should such happen in low-signal areas.
This Kaffe Kache also has another web-based component: What3Words. You can work What3Words directly from the website www.what3words.com OR....
There is also an App for both Android and iPhone. If you would like to use the What3Words App, then use THIS LINK.
Documentation on using the Intercache platform is downloadable HERE.
