(4 of 4 today)The Geowife was keen to attend the *Pirate Day* event, and so we headed up from the Big Smoke to Dunk Is... erm, Dunkey Island (Budgie Island?).After that we collected some caches - she more than me as I have quite a few around here, but ended up at Wyee where there were three more for me to find as well. Of course, the caches we found close by seemed to also attract more pirates... Even had a yummy lunch as the Halekulani Bowling Club.Top day out, Maties!###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###Arrived - and parked near the cache and next to a muggle. And the platform was full of them. Thankfully the train was soon pulling in, the platform cleared and the muggle next to us was waving off their friend/relative/total stranger that gave a lift to.And we were alone.Quick find, and as other have noted the log is saturated - unusual for this type of container.We managed to put our names on the log, but the paper was disintegrating as we did. This needs TLC ASAP.Time to head south - chose the route back through Doyalson.SLTNLNTFTC

The log is so wet it could not be signed. I dont understand how it could possibly get wet Out with KAZ444 for our lost caching day before I leave on a 5 weeks holiday to Japan and cruising home. We want to get some caches south of Newcastle. Thanks for hiding and maintaining this cache.

We have travelled from Sydney's Northern Beaches to the Central Coast for a five day midweek holiday, staying at the Norah Head Holiday Park (caravan park) in Norah Head. Having already found most of the caches around Norah Head and the areas surrounding Tuggerah & Budgewoi Lakes on previous holiday visits, except for a few new ones and the odd DNF needing a visit/revisit, on this trip we will be concentrating our efforts in areas to the north of Lake Munmorah. Planning to explore areas around the southern & eastern shores of Lake Macquarie, including Wyee, Gwandalan, Doyalson North, Cams Wharf, Murrays Beach, Pinny Beach, Caves Beach, and Swansea. Photos will be uploaded to logs on our return to home base.Today we are heading for home, with our holiday now over, but we still managed to find a few more caches before leaving the area. Visited Gwandalan, Kingfisher Shores, Doyalson North, Mannering Park, Wyee Point, Wyee, and finally Bushells Ridge before hitting the Motorway back to Sydney. This was the 8th of 11 finds for the day (day 5), and 57th find of the holiday.This one was next, pulling the geomobile over to the side of the road, then heading off up over the pedestrian rail overpass and through the commuter carpark to GZ for a nice quick find. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. We didn't notice the road underpass until we were leaving, which would have allowed us to drive right to GZ (doh!), but we needed the exercise anyway Smile TFTC JT1018.Find #6548

Ice easy park and grab but the cache and log certainly need some maintenance.
 
01-Aug-22
A quick park and grab, possibly the best example of a park and grab as you can almost get it without leaving the car.

The container is a bit rusty and dented and the log is wet but singable.

Interesting to read about the station, the kids decided this should be an honourary member of the sidetracked series!

Thanks for the Cache!
 
28-Jun-22
Good spot but cache and log needs replacing

I grabbed the kids and headed out today to find a few caches, and while we were restricted to our LGA, we managed to go for a decent drive and get out and see some bush land.

We managed to pull right up next to the cache, and quickly spot it. The container doesn’t have a lid on it, so it may become a problem down the track, but for now it’s fine.

Dayboro trip. Day 2. After an evening being lulled to sleep by the roar of traffic, I was up with the sun and ready to head further north. The Sydney Toll roads make the whole place disappear and Newcastle was in sight. I stopped as I could on the way targeting about 10 caches for the day. My plan to stay at Port Macquarie was stymied by the flooding, so I ended up at Waughope. The road past Taree showed no signs of being wet or damaged, so just a speed limit to show for all the drama.

I came around the correct side of the station first, so that was good. There was enough room in the car park for me right at GZ, so even better. No lid, but the hide location protects it.

Thanks.

We left Australia 12 years ago with our daughter and after all that time we are back on a holiday to show the daughter were she was born.
Our friends life in Wyee and so I was in the area for this cache. While logging the cache a train to Newcastle was announced and so I added a 'train spotting' photo to this log.

Thank you for placing this cache.

Best regards,

I stopped off at Wyee on my way back to Sydney from Newcastle. I wanted a quick cache at a train station within Lake Macquarie LGA, and this one fitted the bill perfectly.

Glad to get a nice quick find at GZ - just 15 minutes until the next train arrives, and I'm back on my way. The log was nothing more than a crumpled receipt, so I added a page from my notebook. TFTC.
