A nice and peaceful spot with a nice view over the creek, cache is all good

Today after parkrun at centennial park I decided to head across the harbour via the train to get 1 of the last 2 LGAs that I have left in and around Sydney. I came to lane cove LGA and found a few caches in and around the area.

Thanks for the cache

Fifth day of our trip and we have left the Rutherglen Mega and are now leaving Sydney after a short stay, still heading North. But as we are departing Sydney, there is still time to grab a few geocaches.

We only had 3 car stops and got 5 geocaches. But if I have planned it correctly and the LGA borders are correct on my map, that should have been 5 geocaches in 5 new and completely different LGAs. Including 2 of the oldest Sydney geocaches, not bad in only 3 stops.

This was the first find and the girls were lookout while I went Troll hunting. He must have been out and we only found spiders.

Thanks for the cache Jack Scruff

11-Sep-22
A perfect day for a stroll in relatively civilised bushland.

OK it takes quite a bit to get this city girl into any bushland .........
.... but the sun was shining and there seemed to be a decent trail. It turned out to be a bit muddy - and I was glad I'd left my Jimmy Choos back at the ranch - but I encountered no bugs, snakes, spiders, feral echidnas or rampant drop bears. Only the occasional brush turkey rustling suspiciously in the undergrowth.

Anyway ... I came. I saw... I conquered. Very nice spot for a cache. Thank you Jackscruff.

Found in the early morning gloaming, thanks.

First geocache with my dear Christine ️ a spontaneous find on a long walk home from one of my many reflective catch-ups with Christine
 
26-Aug-22
Sat, parked up in the van in Eastview street and waited for this heavy rain to subside.
I made my way down the lower pathway witnessing the footpath turn into a river and actual waterfall down the steps.
The river was flowing healthily upon my approach I visualised where it would be hidden and within 5m was confirmed the correct guess of hide, thanks Jackscruff
 
23-Aug-22
Left the house before 6am this morning to drop the geodog off for a dental procedure at the vet in North Willoughby.

This means I have the whole day to pass, geocaching, until I can collect her. I hit the pavements.

A beautiful park. I guess this area is high density living….for trolls!
