Nice garden near by the Sydney Operahouse an beautyful view to the Habour Bridge.Only some muggles here around taking selfies, so stealthy logging was possible.TFTC!!!
Wow, the harbour side is pumping. Live music as at the bar below, people relaxing on the lawn and lights all over the Harbour Bridge, Luna Park and the city. So lucky to live in this city.
Found with Gazania Rigens, as per her log.Is a tough leather gauntlet a standard part of Australian cachers TOTT?Having left mine behind in Scotland, it was with a measure of firmly repressed trepidation that I reached in for this cache in its perfect hiding spot.Being neither dead, nor even hospitalized, I was able, in my relief, to enjoy this intimate contact with so beautiful and venerable a tree and to appreciate the placing of this cache.FP for this one.
Great tree and hiding spot, although I was quite glad that Zouave volunteered to put his hand in the "unknown". The view of the opera house is nice from up here. TFTC!
We arrived early at the Sydney Opera House before a piano concerto performance so decided to find a cache. The Man OWar Steps was inaccessible because of a wedding cruise party, Im glad theres this one. Quick find and nice spot. TFTC!
TFTCOn way to concert and a quick dash up the stairs. Great views. Thanks for the cute find.
Four ladies from Sweden (Tigertassen, ursus67, Lnganfans, pidjas) are visiting Australia. This day we took a long walk, more than 20 km. We mostly log as TULP.This was one of the places we visited. A big thank you to the CO for this cache.
D var det dags fr lite ventyr. Resan gr till Sydney i Australien ???? och sedan vidare till Christchurch och Dunedin p Nya Zeeland ????.P resan ker Tigertassen, jag sjlv, ursus67, Lnganfans och Pidjas, vilket gr att vi loggar under det gemensamma namnet "Tulp". Tanken r att vi innan vi ker hemt ska ha beskt ett Megaevent, Geo Toroa.Hlsningar frn Sverige, sdra Lappland ???? Then it was time for a little adventure. The trip goes to Sydney in Australia ???? and then on to Christchurch and Dunedin in New Zealand ????.On the trip are, Tigertassen, myself, ursus67, Lnganfans and Pidjas go, which means that we log under the common name "Tulp". The idea is that before we go home we should have visited a Megaevent, Geo Toroa. Greetings from Sweden, southern Lapland ????
Four Swedish ladies walking around in Sydney looking for caches. We found this and we log as TULP. Thank you for this.

Dieser Cache lag auf unserer Route, vielen Dank an den Owner TFTC_Sydney frs Auslegen und Herfhren
During our walk around the Sydney Opera House we also made a short detour to this Tradi, which we were able to find and log largely unnoticed despite a few muggles.Thanks for hiding it and best wishes from GermanyTeam hsvflens-Bei unserem Spaziergang rund im die Sydney-Oper haben wir auch einen kurzen Abstecher zu diesem Tradi gemacht, den wir, trotz einiger Muggel weitestgehend unbemerkt finden und loggen konnten.Danke frs Verstecken und viele Gre aus DeutschlandTeam hsvflens
We spend a few days in Sydney and enjoy the city with its unique sights, buildings and parks. We also search for and create caches, virtual and lab caches. This takes us to places we would not have visited otherwise. The caches are in very good condition and they were all dry and there was still enough space for the next cachers. Many thanks and greetings from the Moorhelmi
Cache is in a very beautiful spot near the Sydney opera house. Very easy spot to find and good park.
Found a large collection of caches during this overdue trip into the city.This stealthy find was greatly assisted by the clear and descriptive hint. TFTC!
Little scary putting my hands in places with which I cannot see. Especially with all the creepy crawlers in this country.
#748. Went to see Sunset Boulevard at the Opera House today and picked up some caches on the way there and back. Really enjoyed this series. TFTC!
I'm always a little jubious about reaching into places where I can't see my hands. But sometimes you just have to be brave...
Found during my business trip. Thank you! Nice concept of TFTC caches, appreciated!
A really well hidden cache! I went on a cruise since finding this cache and learnt about the statue nearby. With the cache I have learned a lot about the history here!
Fear of spiders nearly deterred me, found the stick of caching and the prize was found. Just done a tour of the Opera house, - very enjoyable and informative. What a great city Sydney is. Tfc!
Visiting from Brisbane. Love Sydney. Love geo caching. Great find bit hard. Found it, tested to climb it.
Me & my geocache wife went down to the famous Opera House for a walk & finding a few caches, we walked back & up the stairs to find those caches, a fig tree nearest to the pathway, indeed a very nice tree & the roots looked amazing.Following the hints, we went over to the side, waist length, we think it is the right place, dare not use my hand to feel, heard there are spiders, not taking chances, we found a stick & dig dig it out, true enough something came out.After we logged our names, we returned it back to its hideout.TFTC to Co, a nice cache.
Found it with Ramakristan after we enjoyed a walk around the Opera House & collecting 1 or 2 caches, we headed to the steps leading to this cache. Hint was precise, we stood in front of the fig tree, went the other side, I think we located the hideout, for fear of spiders, I asked Rama not to use his hand but a stick, started poking it, some thing dropped out lol a nice black cache.TFTC to Co, what a view during sunset at this place.
The temporary fencing has been removed. There were muggles sitting close by so didn't actually check on the cache. Will do that next visit. Hopefully, all is well here.
Just as I was about to leave, the muggles departed so I retrieved the cache. The log was quite full so I've swapped it out for a fresh one. The Carnival Splendor was in Port today. The harbour sure does sparkle on a sunny day.
Didn't see fencing when I went by.Maintenance visit. There's now no evidence of the area having been used as a toilet however GZ is fenced of, presumably for the Sydney Marathon. I'll check on this on my next visit.
Doing some sightseeing through Sydney, we found several caches.This is one of them.This specific place did become a public toilet including shit and toiletpaper.Team Mavos - Albert and Maria
Visiting from Scotland working at Sydney Opera House and found this one on my lunch break! Stunning tree, stunning views! TFTC
