Helaas

Quick find tftc

Found! Not much space left to log.

Nice and quite on a Sunday afternoon. Found the cute Camden Haven boat and set sail just with a headsail and a comfy seat. Soon had the cache in hand, signed and returned, thanks.

No luck on this one at night time

Checked this one today. It’s still there and all ok.

No luck today

Took a bit but got it in the end - like it!

Out for a drive around Laurieton and this was onr of the caches we targeted.

Thanks for placing this cache grey team.

Finally turned this into a smile. Making a last run to collect caches to get the turtle..Cached with Bobbiesgirl and logs may have been signed BO for the two teams . 3501 so far for us. Thanks for placing this cache grey team, without cachers like you we wouldn't have a hobby. Signed log. took nothing, left nothing.

On holiday with the kids. Saw the boat and thought “ what a place for a geocache?”...I was right. TFTC

After an excellent lunch at the Pub, we discovered there was a cache just over the road. Have we got time?? Of course we have!! Signed as Team BADJ. thanks greyteam

I am loving seeing the many sculptures around the area made from the flat metal and cut out. They are really well crafted and we've enjoyed seeing them in many different styles and forms. Thanks for placing one here grey team. We weren't sure where to look but made the find after a couple of minutes of being intimate with the location, lol. Log signing duties done we replaced as found. Signed as Team BADJ for Bobbiesgirl, Aussie Liahona, DiamonJs and JooJoo57.
Cheers and happy caching!

Having lunch at the pub and hmm a cache over there, of course a wander was in order. Found and signed as Team BADJ. TFTC

After lunch at the pub we wandered over to search for this cache - short search and we had it. Thanks grey team.

Gotcha - Found with a bit of searching. Tftc

Found

We have headed south a few weeks early to have a little holiday prior to attending the Oz Geomuster Mega event. We have found ourselves based in Port Macquarie for a few days which has enable us to spend some time exploring some of the nearby towns.

We had no difficulty in locating the cache and with our name added to the log book, we continued on our way.

Thank you grey team for having placed the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy

I have visited this town a few times over the years but never noticed this item. There was plenty of parking nearby and no onlookers as it was well after 5pm when Laurieton seems to close, so we could have a good look. There weren't that many places available to search and we soon spotted a nicely hidden cache. Thanks for a good hide.

We came across your cache, grey team, on our geocaching holiday in Canberra. Today we on our way home with an overnight stop in Laurieton.

Checked in for some Indian at the new Curry House across the road. Checked out the boat and found a cache. Nice one!

Log signed and replaced at 6:12 pm on 14 March 2018. TFTC.

Grabbed on our way to get a coffee. Didn’t have a pen but took photo.

Very clever . I have not seen one of these before.
TFTC

checked this one on our maintenance run. All good here.

Third time lucky. TFTC grey team. Found 28/1/18 3:18 pm. Cache 1464 for us.

We have travelled up from Sydney’s Northern Beaches to Port Macquarie for our annual summer holiday, camping in our Jayco Swan Outback camper trailer at the Breakwall (Sundowner) Holiday Park. Today we were off to Laurieton to visit the Sunday Markets and the North Brother Mountain Lookout, and collecting caches along the way. This was our 4th find of the day, and 117th find of the holiday.

After a pleasant time wandering around the Sunday Markets we were now on our way back to Port Macquarie, but stopped off at this one as we passed by. Arrived at GZ and made a quick find of a very familiar cache hide style. Signed the log then replaced as found. It's a cute little vessel. TFTC grey team.

No luck here today. We’ll be back.

Took a little hunting. Lucky it's not a busy time of day.

Love this hide .. thanks

We are staying in the area for a few days and happily we were able to find this cache. What a beautiful location. Fav point alloc. Thanks to grey team for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

Found by MrsGrubFred before we even started looking . . . . . admittedly it would have been a bit like a game of twister for four people to have a good look at the same time. TFTC grey team.

Find No: 6394. Visiting from Newcastle, heading home from Bill & DiMorgan's Christmas Cheer on Marbuk Event, out for the day with geono., thanks for the cache grey team!!

Good

With a quiet day on Laurietons streets... it was a fairly easy find today. Not what we were expecting... but awesome location. TFTC.

Pretty sure this is our second attempt at this one. No troubles this time. Another lovely evening at the cinema nearby. Thanks for placing.

Nice quiet day today, so perfect time to grab this sneaky hide. Well done TFTC

Found easy but had to get geograndson to help get it out

What a sneaky little devil, had to have a 2nd look before we spotted it. A favourite point from us for the sneaky hide. Thanks for the cache.

Today we took a Sunday drive down to Laurieton & Kendall. A few caches to find, a couple of new caches & a previous DNF to look for. None of the caches I would call drive bys.
2nd look for this one, a real sneeky hide, which is just what you want at this location.
Favourite point given.
Thanks for placing this cache

We had looked for this one previously when it had been muggled and of course were unsuccessful and even had another quick go after that without success.
Today on a Sunday afternoon it was much quieter and we could again have a good look. Three of us sitting there must have looked quite strange, but with a 'heads up' we had received we soon found the cache.
A sneaky hide in a very public place!
TFTC

Had a quick look but unsuccessful. Will have to come back when muggle activity is lower.

An easy find after the muggles left the area.
Thanks.

Found at 1:01 PM GAFF? in the company of NurseHayley.
I was with a previous finder (Hayley) who said that the cache had definitely disappeared. So with the consent of the CO, we replaced the cache in a very tough little spot. Let's see that get muggled [:(!]
Thanks grey team.

Hi there grey team.

This is the 1st of 1 caches we didn't find today. [:(!]

We spent quite some time here at around 11:25:00 AM, but even with four sets of eyes we just couldn't locate your cache. It's either not there, a very clever hide or we are just suffering from "cache blindness", so here's a DNF from us.

Regards
Ian and Penny

We new of the sailing boat we have previously found a cache here.
Had a good search but we were unable to find it. Just too good for us today.
Thanks

Cashe no longer there

Busy shopping morning on a sunny day. Who notices geocachers? Tftc

Quick find as there were few muggles around and as we knew what we were looking for from a previous cache here. Tftc!!! Nice hide. #1080

Surprisingly a quick find was had at GZ. Many thanks for bringing us here. TNLN SL TFTC

Cute little container

It was very quiet here after lunch and as there were not many hiding places on the pretty object we were able to make a quick find.

We enjoyed our walk around the little town.

Container and contents were in good condition.

Thanks for the cache grey team

Tftc!! Pity people have been pulling ends of seating out & not replacing properly!

Thank goodness there wasn't too many muggles. Found the cache quickly with the feelers haha. Thanks grey team

#3938 (14 of 25 today)

First full day of my short trip to Port Macquarie. This is my opportunity to grab a stash of caches all day while the Geowife does her crafty things.
Found 25 including the first eight of the Mid North Coast Wander (was only willing to push the non-4WD mugglemobile so far) and a selection of other caches in around Port.

Actually beat her back to the motel by 10 minutes - and she had the key! Then out for dinner at Flynn's Beach.
A good day.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Muggles around but not close.

A quick look around and I spotted it - not what I expected to be honest. Moved in for the surreptitious grab and completed signing duties - then replaced.

Nice easy one.

OK time to start heading back north.

Tftc didn't sign, took pic instead

Found with Portenya. TFTC

Smooth Sailing

Found it.

Late logging - 13/8/17. I was wondering "What on EARTH", when I did a recent search of closest Unfound caches, and this one showed up. Had to go back through my records and diary, as when I had stopped by the "Lady" last week I couldn't re-find the cache to check when I had found it. Going onto Waymarking.com reminded of when I had come along at night, and those photos weren't as suitable as ones taken back in 2015! Another night caching trip, just to clear out the 50 km zone. Found @ 2005, dry and intact, plenty of room to log, unable to fit a CSM.
