On a senior's Metro trip to Chatswood. While Mrs Brew shops, I caught the train to a few local stations to grab a few caches.I followed the path downhill, then stopped within 5m of GZ. Without a hint, I wasn't sure where it might be, but the instincts kicked in, and it was CIH. Another one ticked off on the map. TFTC

Exciting times over the next couple of weeks as we takeoff for the Capital GeoBash in Canberra! Its going to be a flood of Sandgropers over east, with a host of West Aussies making the trek east for the event. Im travelling with fellow Cockburn Crew members Leg5 and Barnzy12, starting in Sydney and hitting the road to Canberra, before returning back to Sydney. Honourary mention to our fellow member, Cravo10, who couldnt make it after recently introducing a new geocacher to the world the week prior. Once in Canberra, the agenda is set, well team up with a host of Western Australians to conquer caches. Collectively, were hoping to make it the biggest ever weekend for cache finding. Following the event, the journey continues back to Sydney, with a mission to clean up caches and new Local Government Areas (LGAs), ensuring no cache is left unturned in this epic geocaching adventure. Something tells me that well need a holiday after this, well, holiday. All logs have been signed as WAC to save space, abbreviation for Western Australia Crew. Cheers BindiGuider! Big GrinJoin us in Augusta, in Western Australias South West, for WA Goes Big 2024 (GCAGV8Y) on Friday 20 to Sunday 22 September. Log your will attend now!

Decided on a public transport trip today with goingplaces2 and picked up a few caches close to train stations. It was a quick find here and there were very few muggles around. Log was signed and replaced. Job done! TFTC.

Went for a bus and train ride this morning with ilook4geo and this was a cache near a station to look for today. It is not really a 1 terrain as it would be very difficult for a person in a wheelchair to access this cache. Both names were soon added to the log and it was then time to head back towards home. Thanks for the cache go to BindiGuider.

a muggle def saw me signing the log but hopefully thought nothing of it she didnt see me replace the cache so we should be good TFTC!

Im back visiting from Brisbane for a few days while my husband is working here. I had a coffee with my cousin in Lindfield, then came the one stop to Roseville. I used to live in Roseville in 1986, so it was nice to visit again. After finding the multi on the other side of the railway, I walked down to this cache. Coordinates were pretty good so I soon found, not one but two caches. The original, a bit bent and the new one. I signed the log in the new one. Tftc

I am on a mission today to collect 16 lgas from the Sydney surrounds. I chose which caches to do, and the Elf in the car garmin is teling me where to go. Boy what a day. It started out really well, but around No. 12, the elf had a few to many eggnoggs, and glitched, and sent me back 2 previous caches, Which amounted to 2 tolls not needed to be paid, had about an hour of time. Anyhow, have a ....... I got it back on track, but somehow we have missed one, and the last one on Sout Head was just not going to hapen, due to the vry long walk to find a parking spot.

This cache was first cab off the rank, and took a little too long to find, as i was searcing the actual laneway. So after eliminating a lot of places, i looked in the general locaion, and figured, its probably stuck to that, and i was right. TFTC.

I dropped off my car to get serviced at the local dealer this morning and waiting for the job to be done, I was enjoying a nice brunch at a nearby cafe. But then I received a phone call from the service advisor telling me a couple of other things needed fixing and that they'd now need my car for the whole day. OMG!!

So how to kill 6 hours when I don't have a car. Caching came to mind but I've got all the ones nearby! Then a brainwave ... I remembered there were some caches near stations along the North Shore line. So, I hopped on a train from Gosford and spent the day jumping from station to station ... and getting sidetracked along the way.

A straightforward find here but I'd suggest that the cache is not really a T1, given that people have to get down low to retrieve it ... T1 is reserved for wheelchair friendly hides. Not sure that the hide location is legal either ... indeed, I think you'll find that attaching something to Ausralia Post property is actually a crime under the Crimes Act ... https://wiki.groundspeak.com/plugins/servlet/mobile?contentId=4915952#content/view/4915952

Thanks for this smiley bindiguider.

I was dropping my cat Penny off at the grooming centre near here and realised I needed a cache for the day before going in to work. Luckily this one was a terrain and difficulty of 1 and also a park and grab as the weather is rather wild and I wasn't dressed for caching. TFTC

This cache was cleverly hidden!
I took me some time to locate it because the GPS was bouncing around a lot. There were so many great hiding spot possibilities. I had to resort to some of the activity logs for hints; some of which were misleading. So I’m grateful to the person who said it wasn’t in a “natural” location!
