I stopped by this one while on our evening walk down this way before dinner. Thanks to the precise hint Embarassed, I was able to spot the cache secure in its hiding spot. Unfortunately, just as I was getting back to retrieve it, a young girl decided that GZ was a great spot to sit and text people. Shocked

After a few minutes of trying to find some data though, she moved on and I finally had the stash in hand at 18:45.

TNLNSL. Thanks Team MavEtJu.

I have a reason to start doing some local GA caches.
Given that my GC goal is to lift the D/T rating to 1.9/1.9 for my 8,000th find (I am on 6,400 @ 1.82/1.79 now) and that we are doing the York Peninsular power trail in March (over 400 in a day mostly 1.5/1.5 and nearly 1,000 all up), I am trying to avoid doing any GC caches under a 3/3.
With this handicap and the Journey or Destination game drawing to a close, it is time to spread my wings and keep caching by doing GA caches and at the same time try to get myself into a position where I will win a PathTag.
Thanks for providing caches.

Thanks for providing caches.
I found the path with my last try and decided to go out and get some more caches to try some more.

First time I came looking for this one I put my hand on drug taking paraphenalia & haven't been back since. That was soon after the FTF had gone

Came back today & a nice quick find while down in the Caringbah Gymea area on the way down south a quick find thanks for the cache Team MavEtJu.

This was found as part of the 2018 to 2019 Summer Games. 

The latest Geocaching Australia game runs from 01-Dec-2018 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2019 23:59:59 AEST

For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to click on a ground tile and reveal what lies beneath.

Another day and another [FTF] in the Trains of the Sutherland Shire series!
After some trainspotting from the bridge for the geoboy and a play in a children's playground across the road, it was off to GZ to find the cache. This is a busy area with muggles passing by all the time. After some more trainspotting while waiting for a gap in the muggle traffic it was a quick find in a logical place. Opening the cache, another fresh, blank log to sign! Yay! Cache is in perfect condition.
Thanks for another great cache TeamMatEtJu and for a nice morning out exploring Gymea!
GCA Find #4 Clan Cerberus
