Checked in while in the area, cache still in place

Grabbed this one on my way to the event this morning. I have tried this one before without luck but this time I just found it straight off. TFTC

TftcAfter a DNF, an extra hint from CO a couple of months ago and having a chat with RedEarSlider at this morning's event, I finally managed to turn the frown upside down and grt a yellow smiley. Sneaky little hide.

There's a place where I feel like it *should* be, but couldn't find it. Not sure if it's missing, or I'm just really bad at this, haha

Found with MoSSau on chop chop dayTFTC

Thanks for cache did with Lonely RA while in town and waiting for toy world to open thanks for cache.

Very difficult if it is there. Had some hope with the recent owner maintenance, but nothing to be found today. Looked with our hands on lots of things, turned over anything that moved, lifted anything that could lift. Difficult to not look suspicious feeling around in the higher-traffic area! Maybe another holiday up here.

Not for us today sadly

Up from Newcastle with deni_f caching in this area for a couple of days. Tried on a couple of occasions but no luck on both times. Thx for placing the cache though

Cache seemed to be missing. Have replaced it.

Looked in various places, not found

Couldn't find it

A quick find, not too difficult after getting a hint from a previous finder. We tried once before when we were visiting family in town but were unable to find it. Thanks for the hide Portstvo.

Easy to find, hard to rewind! TFTC Portstevo

Thought I'd have another look for this cache this afternoon before I left Wauchope. Last time I came it was far too busy with muggles walking past to search thoroughly and I gave up quickly. Today I put my hand straight on it, first place I looked. So pleased I was able to find this without any hints or having to phone a friend!! Thanks for the cache Portstevo

Great geo cache with awesome cafes nearby

Great geocache at great opshop

Pretty hard find, took and coule tries and some help from the previous finder pprass.

Found at 3:37 PM GAFF4. Doing some work on our caravan - ie trying to connect my phone to the many Bluetooth devices that are now common in just about everything that has some sort of electronics in it - and at the conclusion of that head spinning exercise, we headed over to do this cache which was just a few kilometres from where we store our van.Arrived at GZ and where the heck would you place a nano around here - answer = anywhere and everywhere!So started to search in the most likely spots, but nothing. So after checking about half a dozen locations a PAF was in order and we were then directed to a spot that we totally avoided during our search due to the items that were placed in front of the advised hiding spot. However even after that advice it was still not evident where the cache was hiding - but p-pprass then put on his serious "I'm going to find this little nano cache right now" face and he did [^]Gosh a tough spot considering what is in its way and just a mere D of 1.5!Thanks Portstevo.

Tricky find!

Velk cesta do Ocenie - den 35 - Byron Bay - Wauchope, New South Wales (420 km)Dnes jsem si cestu uvala a samozejm za to z vt sti mohlo poas. A do odpoledne se drelo na hezkch 27-28C a slunce bylo kryto mrky. A po 14.hodin opt pily bouky s pvalovmi deti a trvaly asi hodinu. 3x jsem musela zastavit a chvli pokat. Fascinuje m, e i v tom nease, kdy nen vidt zhola nic, si Australani prost nerozsvt svtla a klidn val 100. Nkte nesvt dokonce ani po tm. To fakt nechpu. Taky cel den hrlo rdio a to hity 70.-90. let. Dokonce se mi na velk benzince u dlnice podailo sehnat nabjeku na mj staroitn mobiln telefon, kter vera navdy umela. Bez mobilu ale nemu komunikovat s bankou a to je obas poteba. Ale poradila sem si a zakoupila super 10 v 1 nabjeku pmo urenou pro staik telefony se vemi typy koncovek. Silnice na Motorway 1 byla ve velmi dobrm stavu a povolen rychlost 110. Rno jsem st cesty jela okreskama kolem pobe a pl a odlovila si tu pr keek vetn jedn oldies z roku 2002 a pak jsem se stle posunovala na jih k Sydney. U bych tam skoro mohla i dojet, ale v plnu je zajka do vnitrozem kvli jin dleit oldies kei, take jsem dnes skonila v malm msteku Wauchope. Trochu zvltn obec se sammi doktory nebo funebrky. Naproti motelu mm zubae, patologa a paliativn pi. Nu co, to vechno by se mohlo hodit. Snad jen toho patologa bych zatm radji vynechala. Paliativn pi bych tady ovem v nkterch dnech pmo uvtala. Majitel se m ptal, jak to mm pzvuk, odkud e jsem a kdy slyel e z eska, kal, tam znm jen Brno. To jsme se nasmli . Je to Ir a kdysi byl v Brn na veletrhu. Jinak je v obci ve zaveno u od 17.hod a funguje jen benzinka. Jete mm pivo i bourbon a colu a Cambellovu kuec polvku v konzerv. Nejbli vt obec je 20 km a tam se mi u jet nechce. Tak to dnes zvldnu po tbornicku a teba ztej obec bude vybavenj.Today I moved from Byron Bay to the south, first along the coast and then further along the highway. Along the way, I found some caches, including one oldies from 2002 near a nice beach. It was beautiful until 2 PM, then storms with rain came again, in which I don't like to drive here. I ended up in Wauchope for the night and tomorow I plan to take a detour inland. Thanks for the cache and greetings from Czech republic.

Couldnt find it even with five of us. Came and looked twice and no luck.

Sammi_ham89. Tricky spot.

Very busy

Have held off on finding this cache so we could get our Hello 2024 souvenir. Identified a few places it could be and struck gold in the second spot checked, interesting that some cachers with almost 100k combined finds couldn't find it first time around Thanks for the cache

On the hunting trail with Liz and Bruce on a Christmas 2023 adventure. A quick find here today. Cant believe we missed this a couple of days ago. Its a great day for caching. TFTC Portstevo

Don't know how we missed it. Got our smiley now. thanks for checking.

TFTC. Found by Mr now 7. SL. Nice new cache in my hometown.

Cache still hiding exactly where it is meant to be

No luck for us today. Searched for 10 minutes and then searched a little more. Finally resorted to PAF and previous finder, but still no luck with precise instructions. Thanks for bringing us here regardless.

We were hopeful but couldn't spot the cache. Thanks

Sneaky little hide, so many spots it could be hidden and soany muggles to dodge today! A nice op shop there too, Scored myself a cute new vase!

We parked next to New Hope to grab a coffee down the street n I thought Id check for caches. Turns out we were right next to it. Looked around at a few different spots before finding it. TFTC

As JO said, we stopped to get a coffee and happened to park right next to this new cacheTFTC

Ftf with nissan65. Found with nissan65 on our morning coffee run. Thankyou for your contribution to geo caching

Found with cullum68 on our way to get the morning coffee slight detour to get a first to find thanks for the cache

With Husky out of town, there was a good chance of getting a FTF but wasn't to be.A trip to Wauchope had been planned to find a cache that had been published a short time ago, so this was an added incentive .Had a preconceived idea where it would be, but it was our 3rd place we looked before we found it.Now on for another look at a DNF we had previously.Thanks Portstevo for hiding this cache.
