Hallo !

Ich bin Skippy, ein Schweizer Känguru,
und ich komme gerade von einer fantastischen Reise aus Down Under zurück !

Mit einem Rucksack voller Erinnerungen und tollen Fotos,
möchte ich nun zurück in die Schweiz reisen.
Bitte helft mir, in einen Cache nach BASEL
(oder noch besser in die Gegend um Kaiseraugst / AG) zu kommen.

Vielen Dank für Eure Hilfe!
Es wäre wirklich genial, wenn auch der Rest meiner Reise noch so super klappen würde.

Liebe Grüsse, Skippy

Eigentlich wollte ich dich hier ablegen, aber Skippy befand sich in meinem Koffer, der nicht mit mir zusammen ankam :( Der Koffer mit Skippy drin wurde mir am Abend erst nach Hause geliefert. Daher nur eine kurze Zwischenlandung und bald ein neuer Cache für dich.

Well.... what else can i say ...... ?
We didn't really expected Skippy to reach all the goals set.
But it seems she was always to the right time, at the right place,
what made her meet the perfect cachers ! 😁 😎 😚

Thanks to all the cachers so far, who helped Skippy and her Joey to make a dream come true !
And of course ....
Very special thanks to Smurfy_CH, who took her over to Australia,
Allie2112, who's gonna take her back to Hamburg ..... and of course,
last but not least.... the SA_ParrotHeads , who did a really fantastic job
by taking care of Skippy during 3 weeks of traveling !
Thank you so much for all the fantastic pictueres and reports !
It was so exciting for us, back home in Switzerland, to see and read the adventures Skippy was living. 😁

Cheers , Great Ocean Road[/blue]

From Tennant creek back to Alice Springs.

Not much happening today apart from lots of driving. We were on the road by 7 am barreling down the highway. Stopped at the roadhouse by the UFO cache to grab some breakfast.

At midday stopped at the Red Centre farm to get a some Mango ice cream which was very yummy and some Mango wine to take home. Who would believe there would be a farm here out in this part of the country I only thought there were Cattle stations.

Then past an Aboriginal settlement with these 2 big statues a man with a spear on a hill and women and child below.

Made it into Alice by 2 Pm and took the easy option of booking into a resort. Very Nice. Out for a walk around the town and a couple of caches, then dusk at ANZAC Hill before going out for dinner.

The caching was a sad experience for us as we had to say good-bye to Skippy who has come such a long way with us.

Together we have traveled some 7000 kilometres.

"Hello and Goodbye" seemed an appropriate place to part.

I hope we have given a wonderfully tour of our beautiful country and if you come back send us an email through Geocaching.

Good Luck Skippy.

We changed the note to ask people to take him towards home.

Best wishes from the Parrots.
