Current Goal

My goal is to get to Australia with two destinations in mind ---

  • Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary in Brisbane.   They do a wonderful job taking care of koalas there and provide a great place for you humans to interact with koalas.   This should be considered a ''must see' on any trip to Australia. I really want to see this!    Wow! Thanks to cachers Zed Meister and The Green Geckos I have made it to Lone Pine!!   What a wonderful place.
  • Alice Springs --  my owner's dog Angus was born and raised in Alice Springs and as long as I was in the country I figured it would be great to visit there. How far can it be anyway?! (Sadly, Angus passed away on his 12th birthday in January 2015.) Actually there are two things that  would be nice to do in Alice Spriings.  There are stories going around that at Easter 2017 there will be a geocaching Mega-Event held in Alice Springs.  It would be a lot of fun to be there.   And located nearby Alice Springs is geocache number 2 million:    Overwatch #1  GC46N4E.  I gotta see that one!

About This Item

DSC00467

I am a koala -- actually a marsupial and not a bear.  I am named after a cartoon character --  Here is what someone on the internet said about me. . .

 

Blinky Bill is a charming little koala from the village of Greenpatch who dances to the beat of his own drum. Clever and a little mischievous at times, Blinky seeks excitement and adventure where other koalas are happy to eat and sleep the day away.

Blinky has a wicked sense of humour and can be boastful at times but always makes good in the end using his cheeky charms! He is adventurous, courageous, indomitable in the face of danger, quick-witted and always mindful of his mum.

Blinky is passionate about safeguarding the trees, rivers and all forms of animal life that are at the heart of his environment. His Home is the Australian bush which is a very safe and picturesque place for koalas to grow up.

Does that sound like a great geo-caching partner or what?!

Retrieve It from a Cache 8/25/2014 holds no currency retrieved it from Hook & Ladder *Archived 8-24-2014* South Carolina   Visit Log

Quite a start for this little guy. I dropped Bill in my usual starting cache for trackables -- Hook & Ladder. Little did I know that the fire truck that housed the cache had been sold by the local business owner and would be towed away that very same day. Luckily the fire truck was easily found with a minimal amount of detective work. Thanks to the new owner I was able to get to the cache which was still in its spot in the truck and retrieve my TB. Bill will get started on his trip to Australia again soon. Better luck this time around.
