Since Ive not been up here for a couple of years, I thought I would tag along and grab some caches all of the way and while hes racing.Since Hubby will need the car, I have bought my trusty e-bike along for the trip.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I found your cache, Eclipse me today. This is my 3155 find.youngoldfella, TFTC, TFTH & TFTSF

Hi there youngoldfella, we found your cache Eclipse me
Day four of our Back to Bundy trip, and we’re continuing our northward sweep of caches up the coast.
We started off by heading to an Earth Cache and then took a route that was determined (mostly) by the next closest cache as determined by our GPS.
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour around the area and ended up finding a variety of container types, sizes and ratings.
Coordinate Accuracy: We found this cache near where our GPS said we should be looking.
Cache Condition: There is an ants nest inside.
Regards

A planned trip north with a mate to check out some of the countryside. We got in some camping in some not so usual spots. It has been fun and the best part is I get to cache in places I do not usually get to visit.
I started my trek around Coral Cove and Innes Park before working my way to Bargara, Elliot Heads and surrounds, this was my areas of attack today, before an evening event. There are some nice cache hides and some nice areas around here. It is a little hot but that onshore wind is right there as usual.
It ran into a few Brisbane caches who were up this way and who seemed to be doing the same thing.
Thanks for the caches and the hides, I signed the logs and returned the caches as found. The hints on the caches are very helpful.

Our first full day in Bundaberg. We decided to head out to Bargara and see how many caches we could find along the coast and surrounds. This included 2 Adventure Labs, puzzles and traditionals. These were mixed in with great scenery and some interesting nature reserves.
Combined with the lunch we had it was another great day.
Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache youngoldfella.

Was tricky to get my timing as the road was quite busy. Plus I had gone past the GZ.

Today our plan was to go and do a huge lot of the T.A.F. caches, somehow this did not eventuate. What we did find ourselves doing was having a lovely drive around the area. Today we started close in to Bundaberg and worked our way out in an ever widening arc. All bar one of the caches were found as per yesterday as the co-ords were great. Again we thank all the cache owners for placing the caches in areas that had safe parking for us. We found one TB today and again the caches had good swag for the little ones.

Finding a few caches while on our annual holiday at Elliott Heads. This was the first one for the day.
The plan was to hit the beach which means I wasn’t wearing the correct footwear for caching but was enjoying the scenic drive and didn’t get into the water today. Maybe make the beach a priority tomoz
A quick pitstop here and rolling onto the next

Sunday afternoon and the apartment was feeling sleepy so I decided I would de-camp and spend a few hours caching south of Bargara. Heading south so pulled up opposite GZ and sauntered over. Way back in the early 80's windermere estate was the big news, seems like it made it.

We decided to take a long walk around the area and relised that it was very easy it eclipses all geocaches ive found Tftc
While spending a couple of nights in Elliott Heads we decided to try to nab a few of the caches around Bargara before enjoying lunch at the Bargara Lakes Tavern. After a little rain last night we were treated to a howling gale along the coast with plenty of waves crashing onto the beach
A nice, quick, easy find. Many thanks for the hide youngoldfella

I don't remember these houses being here! Can't stop development I suppose. TFTC J
Up to Bundy for the weekend and as usual looking for some entertainment for the fist couple hours of a Sunday morning - this time finds me swinging around Bargara as the sun swung up over the horizon. A real quick find here - didn't worry about turning off Suzee's engine as she is still warming up to the run herself.
Thanks youngoldfella for entertaining me at this location.

TFTC. It is a beautiful Sunday. Sunny a great day to go out and clear up some caches around Bargara. The Coral Sea in the background. We even managed to walk up part of the Turtle Trail. None of the caches were terribly difficult to find. We had a great day thanks top the efforts of the various COs.
We are visiting from Maryborough to do a bit of caching with friends Bill and Di Morgan. This was one of the caches we enjoyed finding in this scenic area. Thanks youngoldfella
Staying at Bundaburg motor home camping grounds for the weekend.
Today we toured the area with Liz And Bruce, following the geocache trail, finding a good variety of locations & caches.
