Found with family on a holiday in Sydney.

Looking too high at first but still a quick find. Concerned this cache may get muggle though.

Went to the new Parkrun at Pyrmont this morning and had some time to spare before and after to pick up a few caches. TFTC Wilbert67

Too easy

Found that

2 days on Sydney and I'm not allowed to let caching dictate things so after a few sneaky Ad Labs I was pleased to be able to quickly grab this for our first 'proper' cache in NSWI struggled to retrieve so geokid2 had to step in and made easy work of lifting it out.Nice spot and convenient for our hotel.Thanks for hiding and greetings from UK.

Looks like a vape

TFTC Thank you for hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity. Lovely area.

Reperio 13:54Day 2 of our 5 day visit to Sydney for a nursing conference, and my muggle friend and I took some time away from proceedings to explore the city and find some caches.

We were in the area after participating in a pancreatic cancer research fundraising walk around the other end of Pyrmont. Came here afterwards and really enjoyed the walk through the neighbourhood. A cold drizzly day so muggles were not a problem. SL TFTC Cheers Gaztek

nice spot

Thank you for cache

Found 9/6. No pen but a pic of log.

We were here, no pen sorry, but fine place to stay and go to a 'Flaming Wrekage' album launch.

Down in Sydney for a very quick trip and this cache was less than 50m from where we were staying. Headed out and made a quick find before getting coffee nearby.Tftc ailemayyyFind #6047

Nice patch of green in the city

We took a seat on the nearby wall to stake out GZ because some people were sitting nearby. There is was, taunting us from its home. We had to use a bit more stealth to make the grab as inconspicuously as possible while reading the sign. Then it was signed and replaced. TFTC!

Found it

Sydney trip for Egyptian Exhibition Day 3. Having visited the fantastic Egyptian exhibition yesterday, I was heading home today. I had most of the day to wander around town before heading off in the afternoon back to Canberra. My walk today took me over the bridge into Darling Harbour and up the hill beyond to Ultimo. There was a bit of a loop around the back end of Darling Harbor before finding lunch at a tiny cafe in a back street. I then headed to the east of the station for a few caches before finding a place to sit and rest my feet till it was time to get on the train. A long few days, but it has been fun.As I clambered back up the hill, I took the time to read some of the signs at the park and was amazed to understand some of the history of the area. Things have really changed over time here.Thanks for the cache ailemayyy46276.8 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & Geocaching HQ Founders 20 Year Celebration A#505**Albida**

Gefunden im Team DownUnder24. Danke fr den Cache

Mit 37 Geocachern, aus Deutschland, Dnemark, Luxemburg und der Schweiz, ging es auf groe Reise. Drei Wochen nach Australien und Neuseeland, beginnend mit einem Zwischenstopp in Doha in Katar. So lange und so weit weg von zu Hause war ich noch nie. Eine aufregende Zeit.Beim Geocaching lag der Focus auf viele unterschiedliche Cachetypen, aber auch besondere Wertungen, Challenges und besonders ein paar sehr alte Caches aus den Jahren 2000 und 2001. Aber auch natrlich ganz besonders die Geocaches, die zu Fu vom Hotel aus gut erreichbar waren.Natrlich wurde stand aber nicht nur das Geocaching im Mittelpunkt, sondern auch die Sehenswrdigkeiten der einzelnen Stationen, die wir besuchten, verdienten ihre Aufmerksamkeit.In die Logbcher trugen wir uns mit unserem Teamnamen "Downunder 2024" ein, Logbuchplatz sparend und effizient.Es war eine ganz besondere Reise im groen Team, das auch sehr viel Spa gemacht hat.Heute besuchten wir die Gegenden rund um Sydney. Aufgrund der Vielzahl der Caches reicht es berwiegend nur zu einem Einheitslog, fr den ich mich bei den unterschiedlichen Ownern hiermit schon mal entschuldigen mchte.Danke fr diesen Geocache. Danke fr die Ausarbeitung. Danke frs Zeigen.Lieber Gru aus Duisburg / DeutschlandAndyDieser Logeintrag wird mit Hilfe von Google bersetzt.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________We set off on a long journey with 37 geocachers from Germany, Denmark, Luxembourg and Switzerland. Three weeks to Australia and New Zealand, starting with a stopover in Doha, Qatar. I have never been so long and so far away from home. An exciting time.When geocaching, the focus was on many different cache types, but also special ratings, challenges and especially a few very old caches from the years 2000 and 2001. But also, of course, especially the geocaches that were easily accessible on foot from the hotel.Of course, the focus wasn't just on geocaching; the sights of the individual stations we visited also deserved attention.We entered our team name Downunder 2024 in the logbooks, saving logbook space and efficiently.It was a very special trip in a large team, which was also a lot of fun.Today we visited the areas around Sydney.Due to the large number of caches, there is usually only one standard log, for which I would like to apologize to the different owners.Thanks for this geocache. Thanks for the elaboration. Thank you for showing me.Kind regards from Duisburg / GermanyAndyThis log entry is translated with the help of Google.

Together with 37 Cachers, we start a journey to Australia and New Zealand via Doha.In Qatar we spent one night and had almost one full day before heading to Sydney.In Australia we visit the citys of Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Cairns. In New Zealand will be Aukland, Rotorua, Wellington, Blenheim, Christchurch, Dunedin and Queenstown.To safe Logbook space, we signed the logbooks with our team-name "DownUnder24".Our Teammembers are:\_gc_, AmoebeST, AndyausDu, B@cker-1, Biggidag, Brummelbren, CacheTaucher, cooljo, Fotopinguin, Freizeit-Tina, Gazelle5111, GEO Karen, GoanToni, Hfi1, hupsi-1, karrai*, Leilah03, lenny love, Lupus54, Maxipimpf, muschel3, Ollilein, Opaundenkel, penalty96, Rheins, Simowl, sozioma, Sr. Elli, Team Zyanor, viko76, Webmasterrollerin, Whlhase, XenSuoThank you for the Cache.

Together with 36 other geocachers, the KiSt team undertook a very long trip to Australia ???? and New Zealand ???? for three weeks. On both the outward and return journeys, there was a stopover in Doha, the capital of Qatar ????.We experienced a great deal on this trip and gained many very different impressions of the two countries, their nature and their culture. Of course, the main focus was on visiting as many caches of as many different types as possible and also all accessible old cans. However, we also made sure to visit many special places of interest and to gain as comprehensive an impression as possible of nature and its flora and fauna.To save the logbooks, we usually signed in with our team name **Downunder24**. For "special" cans, however, we have not missed the opportunity to leave our nickname as well.This beautiful cache is now also one of our finds.Due to the large number of caches visited, it is unfortunately not possible for us to write an individual log for each can, which is why we would like to apologize to the owners for this collective log.We also met other cachers at some of the events and were able to share our experiences. Many thanks to the event owners!Of course we would like to thank all the owners for showing us the great locations, the sometimes tricky puzzles, exciting multis and wherigos, as well as the interesting virtuals and earth caches - TFTC!!!---In der Besetzung KiSt unternahmen wir zusammen mit 36 weiteren Geocachern fr drei Wochen eine sehr weite Reise nach Australien ???? und Neuseeland ????. Auf der An- und Abreise stand dabei jeweils ein Zwischenstopp in Doha an, der Hauptstadt von Qatar ????.Wir haben auf dieser Reise sehr viel erlebt und viele sehr unterschiedliche Eindrcke von den beiden Lndern, deren Natur und deren Kultur mitgenommen. Natrlich lag ein Hauptaugenmerk darauf, mglichst viele Caches mglichst vieler unterschiedlicher Typen und auch alle erreichbaren alten Dosen zu besuchen. Darber haben wir es aber nicht versumt, vielen besonderen Sehenswrdigkeiten einen Besuch abzustatten und uns von der Natur und deren Flora und Fauna einen mglichst umfassenden Eindruck zu verschaffen.Um die Logbcher zu schonen, haben wir uns dort meist mit unserem Teamnamen **Downunder24** eingetragen. Bei "besonderen" Dosen haben wir es uns aber auch nicht nehmen lassen, zustzlich unseren Nicknamen zu hinterlassen.Auch dieser schne Cache zhlt jetzt zu unseren Funden.Aufgrund der groen Anzahl der besuchten Caches ist es uns leider nicht mglich, zu jeder Dose einen individuellen Log zu verfassen, weshalb wir uns bei den Ownern fr diesen Sammellog entschuldigen wollen.Auf einigen Events haben wir auch andere Cacher kennengelernt und konnten unsere Erfahrungen austauschen. Vielen Dank an die Event-Owner!Natrlich wollen wir uns bei allen Ownern fr das Zeigen der tollen Orte, die teils kniffligen Rtsel, spannenden Multis und Wherigos, sowie die interessanten Virtuals und Earthcaches bedanken - TFTC!!

On my journey through Australia I passed many beautiful places. It is very impressive. Thank you very much. Greetings from Germany, muschel3

Quarry Green is another small green space tucked away in the inner-city suburb of Ultimo.Information about the area's history from the City of Sydney:In the late 19th century, sandstone quarrying in Pyrmont and Ultimo declined as the quarries were worked out and brick replaced stone in building workingmen's houses. Other industries moved into the area, including flour mills, factories and wool stores. Wool was Australia's prime export.In 1932 the Country Producers Selling Company built two large warehouses on the corner of Quarry Street and Bulwara Road. By World War II, 20 wool stores on the peninsula employed over 1,000 men, most of them in Ultimo.Many of these wool stores were constructed with timber beams, and being soaked in wool grease, they became highly flammable. Spectacular fires were common in Ultimo, and many burned for days. In the early horus of the morning on 19 March 1978 a fire destroyed the old Country Producers warehouses. It was Sydney's biggest fire in 20 years, but nobody died.After the fire, Quarry Street was partly closed, widened and landscaped to form Quarry Green. The park first opened in May 1983.Be careful when retrieving the cache, as muggles are often nearby. There are two cafes across the road from GZ - there may be less people around after 3pm, when the cafes are closed for the day. Please also replace the cache securely to make sure it doesn't leave its spot.
