Walking today from Rose Bay to Watson's Bay, and hopefully a couple of caches on the way. However, after searching all the likely, obvious and not so obvious spots came up empty. There were lots of muggles around so had to be careful doing it. Wonder if it's still around??
I went past this cache a week or two back when in the area, as the council lawn mower men were doing their thing around GZ, but with no such problems today I was able to do what I thought was a fairly thorough search, although obviously not thorough enough. Running out of places to look and with an influx of muggles arriving in the area, I conceded defeat. I also note from a few logs back that someone found it lying in the open and put it back where they thought it should go, so it might be worth checking if it's actually in the right place.
Made a detour from the ferry on the way back from lady bay. Surprised the container was a reasonable size. Tftc tnln liked the story.
Didn’t expect to find this one but amongst the fig, CIH, even with the hoards of muggles swinging past with a fete in the grounds, thanks The Artful dodgers
We found this one exposed, open and obviously wet given the amount of rain. Did not even attempt to sign. We closed it up and put it where thought it should go. Lucky we found it otherwise I think it would have been lost being so exposed. Anyway. Off on a sea plan excursion. Thanks for the cache. Lovely place.
The Artful Dodgers I didn’t find your cache Catalina on 29/9/18, 2:26 pm. Searched and dug all around, couldn’t come up with it.
Quick find as our group stopped here. Beautiful spot. We’re enjoying everything we’ve seen on our visit from the States. Thanks!
Came here with the fam. Sister found it. took the rummikub tile and put a pencil. TFTC
Nice park to relax and enjoy the ocean brise. Unfortunatley, the cache was wet. Couldn‘t notice my username. Please check that - many thanks
A quick stop to find this one. Looked in first place and it was there to be seen uncovered. No lid on tin. Needs replacing please. Signed temporary log. Nice park. TFTC
PS. I found lid but think it could do with a replacement as it will get wet eventually.
It was tight for time, thus didn’t give myself long here as I really needed to be waiting for the bus.
In the end, ran like crazy, crossed the road as the bus was at the stop. Will return.

After a brief search, the cache was found in a likely hiding spot. I placed a temporary log in cache. Cache needs a new log. My first visit here. Heading to the Lighthouse. No Trackable found.
Thanks **The Artful Dodgers**

Real quick find by my friend but not sure if it the most recent container as it is quite worn and has no log. Will attach a photo as there is no log book TFTC
Out for a walk with GeoBaby from Bondi Junction to Rose Bay, collecting some easily accessible cache on the way,
Had to look around a bit for this one. Knew coords were a little off but wasn't sure in which direction. Put the Geo cap on and thought that's where I'd hide it and yep soon found some evidence leading to the hide. Signed a fresh new log. Another great one from the Artful Dodgers TFTC #589

Three of us searched quite a while for this but came up empty. Expanded our search but still couldn’t come up with it.
Fifth found for the night with Deep_99 nice quick one after midnight SL #3402 on streak day #1996 TFTC
This was the fifth cache found with ris768 on a late night caching trip. found it quickly just after midnight. Picked up the trackable to move it along & dropped off two trackables

During our holidays in Australia Mrs.Finefinder and I were also looking for some caches. We travelled from Sydney to Cairns, Darwin, Alice Springs, Adelaide, Melbourne and finally Perth.
So with New South Wales, Queensland, Northern Territory, South Australia, Victoria and Western Australia we have passed through 6 territories.
Many thanks to all owners for hiding, greetings from Switzerland

Last Cache for the day, and what a nice park... and not a mint tin in sight.
Cheers

OCW Seemyshell. Awesome day for some caching in the Eastern Suburbs! Last cache of the day. Really nice down by the water. Great way to start the weekend. Cache# 483 TFTC

Friday. Mr SP was in Sydney to house sit for his daughter for the week. This is the day before I leave. Targeting some random ones on or near the Eastern shores today.
My mostly aimless meandering continued. Here's a likely looking park. Yes! There's one in here. I found a parking spot (amazingly) and had a short walk over to GZ. Familiar with these sorts of hides and there is a tell-tale object which might be disguising the hide, and so it proved to be.
This was the 2nd of 6 caches found on today's trip.
Thanks ***The Artful Dodgers***, for showing us this place.

Nice hide and interesting but of history. Found on a great adventurous day of caching. Thanks!
I was surprised to see how long it had been between finds for this cache. There doesn't seem to be any obvious reason for this - the cache is in a nice area that would easily justify the trip here. Perhaps it is more busy in summer. I came past this pleasant location after visiting Rose Bay for work, and made a quick find.
A beautiful day for geocaching around Vaucluse and all the bay.
Quick found for this one.

Out caching with Noodles for the day out this way. A quick find was made. Nice location. TFTC
Found this one in plain sight upon approach to gz. The gps was still pointing another 20m away at the time.
Thanks for the cache.
Thanks for the cache.
Saw the obvious hide on approach to this one - log was soaked but thankfully the write in the rain paper lived up to its image.

Surprisingly no spiders waiting for us but a scared little mice who adopted the cache for its own!
15:03 705 Obviously, it has been some time since this cache has been visited by a geocacher - a mouse built here its little squat full of berries, marked with its urine and , yes, the little mouse present in person B-) Sorry mousie for disturbing your privacy ... TFTC
