Auf unserer groen Rundreise durch Australien war Sydney unsere letzte Station. Drei Tage hatten wir hier fr die Stadt und die Umgebung Zeit. Man htte natrlich gut noch mehr Tage hier verbringen knnen, aber wir waren schon glcklich, berhaupt hier sein zu knnen . Am 'Best View in Sydney ' hat unsere Gruppe kurz Station gemacht, den Ausblick genossen und Mrs Macquarie's Chair bewundert. Leider war ich so fasziniert und vergesslich, dass ich bei den vielen Fotos, die dort gemacht wurden, nicht den Daumen rausgestreckt habe . Ich hoffe, mein Log wird trotzdem akzeptiert . I really like Sydney .Thank you for the cache. Best regards from Meerana/ Germany

Gehschei enjoyed the best view in Sydney after today's event. Thanks!

A very lovely spot - here is a picture of my thumb (with I guess some kind okay buildings in the background Razz )

Oops. Thumb picture was too powerful apparently

I am frustrated by this failing to post. Third times the charm.
 
05-Nov-24
Found with Gazania Rigens, as per her log. Do you mind if I sit here awhile, madam? The view is quite splendid.Thank you!
 
05-Nov-24
We enjoyed the walk to this viewpoint, but could have done without the many pesky flies today. It's really one of the best views in Sydney, and quieter than the area directly by the opera house. TFTC!

Another beautiful day in Sydney, where we visited the Botanical Gardens and the city again. The weather conditions were ideal today, only the wind was a bit annoying. We were able to successfully implement this virtual cache and a suitable photo was taken.Best wishes from Moorhelmi from Germany.

I never really took notice of that particular viewing platform. I definitely took the photo from the platform however very off to the side as it was full of people taking photos, as well as a TV station

Dieser Platz mit der super Aussicht war heute eins von mehreren Zielen. Natrlich musste auch der kleine Geist hier mitgenommen werden.Da dies unser erster Virtual und der zweite Cache in Australien ist, hngen wir dem Geist auch gern eine Schleife um.Gru und danke fr's Legen und Pflegen sagen JAMC32 aus Coswig-Anhalt!

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. Very nice view.A big thank you to the CO for this cache.
 
17-Oct-24
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 ????

Spending a week of the school holidays in Sydney with my nephew, had the chance to spend a full day caching on my own while he had tennis camp. Making my way from the bus stop at QVB, via Woolloomooloo, onto Mrs Macquaries Chair and back (my feet were killing me after nearly 16km!), grabbed this virtual along the way. Always a busy spot with tourists but as a tourist myself, they didnt have to be so rude telling ME to move while THEY got their perfect shot. Signal and I did our best but mostly just took in the view as a virtual memory.

Today I made this Virtuele cache for our team.My dad will be very proud of me.Thank you very much. Bigfours(Big daughter)

After landing back in Sydney on the penultimate leg of my trip last night, I headed out this morning in search of a few caches prior to my event in the Botanical Gardens.This was the next & there were literally coachloads of tourists here looking for the very same picture. I managed to sneak in between them to produce my own effort before taking some unadulterated views, one of which will become my new background on my caching profile.Found at 09:58Cache #10464TFTC GeodudeAU?????

Greetings from WalesStaying close by on our Australia tour so we took a wander around The Rocks, an Opera house tour, a walk along to McQuaries Point and then to the Hyde Park Barracks. A few caches found as well.After a great Opera House tour we headed around to McQuaries Point and yep it is definitely one of the best (but I haven't seen them all yet) albeit slightly obscured by bush fire smoke. Photo taken and attached. Thanks for the cache.

Bisoutje and I have spent another day at the Sydney Harbour and the Royal Botanical gardens next door. We've explored the area at night but during the day these walks are just as beautiful. Many photos were took which is usually an indication of a day well spent.This might be indeed the best view of Sydney. The landmarks look much smaller on our photographs than does them right. Thumbs up!TFTC!
 
15-Jul-24
The view is good, the tourists seem to like it. Iconic yes.But I think Sydney has a lot of best offs if you spend a bit of time to explore her.

Heute war noch genug Zeit fr ein bisschen Sightseeing. Dabei konnten wir diesmal auch Benny the Seal sehen, der sich vor ein paar Wochen vor uns versteckt hatte. Und ein paar Caches lagen auch noch auf dem Weg... Vielen Dank fr diesen Cache und Gre aus Deutschland. After our last stop in Canberra, we arrived back in Sydney today. In a few days, Docla and I will be heading back to Germany. Today there was still enough time for a bit of sightseeing. This time we were also able to see Benny the Seal, who had hidden from us a few weeks ago. And there were a few caches on the way too... Thank you for this cache and greetings from Germany.
