Logs
No luck today, a very quite morning at the skate park gave me plenty of opportunity to scour GZ and after 10 mins without success I checked the logs for clues. Armed with some extra clues I gave it my best shot and outside of going for a very conspicuous climb I had to give in. Maybe it's missing from the recent logs?

No luck here today, too good for me.
Maybe a case of cache blindness, I will try another time.

Had a bit of a look around. Was about to give up when I spotted it. Log is full, I squeezed my name on. TFTC
In the area watching Geodaughter playing soccer at Woodbine thought I would checkout this nearby cache . Virtually pulled up right in front , gps telling me 8 metres away . I made my way to GZ with the hint in mind , oddly I didn’t spot it straight away and realised that the object that appeared broken contained the well thought out cache . Good one Booos . TFTC
Find 507 for the tribe
Out and about completing the nearby AL and collecting some lunch, and enjoying some sunshine after the most prolonged rain I can ever remember.
Easiest find of this type ever especially when using the hint which was spot on. Cache in great condition, still a bit of room in the logbook for future finders.
First The Boos cache for the tribe. Thanks for the cache and the history lesson!

Sydney Road Trip
I am taking a drive to Sydney for a couple of days to visit my daughter. I stopped in Campbelltown to pick up a few caches on the way home today. Lots of history here. I can't imagine what it was like to have triplets back in those times !

Supposed to be a quick park and grab, but took a bit longer than that. Love the historic houses. TFTC
A quick find while doing the nearby adventure lab- what a lovely old collection of buildings that I wasn’t expecting TFTC

A straightforward find here before starting the nearby Adventure Lab. It's nice to get a bonus cache find beforehand ... and at an interesting place too! Thanks Booos.
At the end if a weekend caching in Sydney. Came past here with Joolay and Barb2e.
Can small the wood fire from the pizza place.

Quick pick up on our way home. On a trip to Sydney to get some cool caches with Barb2e, Isopeda, Cosmonaut97, Kittykatch and Strangetrousers caching together as Capital Crunchers or CC. Going to be a great weekend.

#5763- After a very foggy drive from the mountains, thomo31 and I arrived here to a clear blue sky. A quick find at a beautiful old place. Thanks
Have I ever mentioned how much I dislike these type of caches? Maybe 500 times . Was difficult for me to extract but success in the end! Another bit of Campbelltown history!

Completing the nearby AL gave me yet another chance to look for this cache that has inexplicably proven elusive for me. Finally tonight I was able to convert that blue sad face into a yellow smiley! Phewww! But seriously.... How did I miss this on the previous attempts?! I don't know why, but sometimes the simple ones are the hardest to find! Tftc!
QAEPAG. MaxAdventurer is driving us to the Southern Highlands for a big day out caching including. 2 events. TFTC
TFTC The Booos! Didn't attempt removing log. Quick find though looking towards is difficult when it's raining.
Another quick park and grab with Mizcupake on today's adventure in campbelltown. This had us both soaked as it's pouring today but still so much fun. TFTC!
I didnt initial because its pouring rain and the log is full. Photo as proof of find will be sent over.
*needs maintenance - new log*

Had some dinner at Isabelle’s woodfire pizzeria with the family, then went for a quick geocache as we knew there was one nearby!
Tftc!

A quick find on an early morning walk. Not sure which side is the the front, but cache safely put away and thanks for the chance to see some local history!
This cache has been on my radar for a while, the time to grab and sign was never right. I often stay across the road for work but don’t like the idea of walking over after dark so have always left it. Today the sun was shining and I had a set of wheels to get around with a few hrs to spare before the flight home.
I came down to Australia for several meetings, but a few of them got cancelled so I've got a couple of days here to kill. I've been to Sydney a few times (although before I started caching) so I figured I might as well make a caching jaunt out of the deal. I grabbed my rental car first thing and, after about 30 minutes, had the hang of driving in a right-hand drive car. I noticed the strangest thing wasn't the driving but that it takes a lot of concentration to look to the rear view mirror -- that eye movement is so ingrained and so reflexive I'd go 10-20 minutes before looking in the rear view (although I'm sure I kept looking at the support post. I managed get 18 on my drive down to Canberra.

I stopped for some breakfast at McD's since I couldn't find any sort of local restaurant and saw this across the street. Made very quick work of the cache then spent a few minutes admiring the house -- I really dig on this federation architecture. Not something you see in the US (although I supposed New Orleans and Savannah have some things that are similar. TFTC #3,045.

19,322. Found with minniek during a meander around the Campbelltown region.
Headed up the Hume for a kid-free weekend caching in Sydney. And as minniek says we even lashed out for a motel instead of camping - Luxury ! This was the next find of the day. Nice quick find at GZ. Signed the log, replaced the cache, and then headed off to the next one.
Thanks The Booos !!

A nice weekend away with fitzy_1965 where we glamped (motel) rather than camped!
We cached around Campbelltown, Leumeah, Minto & Ingleburn before heading into our base at Ashfield then into Darling Harbour for dinner.
Quick find here after being muggled out at the nearby sk8park!

Found with nissan65 and nicolebr76gal while attending the mega event at cataract scout camp. Thankyou for the cache
We had to wait it out while a lady in a car right in front of gz chatted away on her phone. We eventually made our move. The hint was very helpful today trying to be very stealth. The cache was located! The log was extracted and we added our name to the sheet. TFTC
Tftc. My parents used to run a Mexican restaurant out of here back in the early 1990s, find memories.
