fter spending a few days in Gawler it was time for to drive my mums (well my car now) from Gawler back to Perth. This was day five travelling from Coolgardie to Perth on a 5 day 3,100km adventure.
There are hundreds of signs saying do not drive tired so geocaching helped with that.
After spending the night in Coolgardie i grabbed some gc caches in the area and then headed west on the highway.
I grabbed lots of gc and gca caches along the way. This was a very quick find after gathering the necessary info and climb.
Thanks for the Geocache Lazarus_68

On the way to Millicent Mega, detours and enjoyed the multi at GZ 5mts away but so happy found the mint and signed the log as EV and thanks for the cache and hide
We have travelled from A (our home in SW of WA) to B via the Savannah Way from Broome to Cairns with a two week unexpected detainment in Mackay which has set us back, now sadly travelling back to A via the Outback Way from Winton to Laverton 
Had this one solved many months ago for whenever we were in the area. Today was that day and I made an easy find at GZ

YAY ! FTF - Which wasn't all that easy what with the coordinates being off by 353 kilometres 
I found the initial GZ and worked the puzzle and couldn't figure out why the CO would put the hint in Southern Cross and the cache near Bindoon. 
I had a light-bulb moment and realized that the CO had made a typo (easy enough to do and we've all done it 
) I figured if I substituted 119 for 116 it would make more sense and sure enough, I soon had the container in hand. 
Thanks for bringing me here, Lazarus_68. TNLNSL

Crux is a constellation located in the southern sky in a bright portion of the Milky Way. It is among the most easily distinguished constellations, as all of its four main stars have an apparent visual magnitude above +2.8, even though it is the smallest of all 88 modern constellations. Its name is Latin for cross, and it is dominated by a cross-shaped or kite-like asterism that is commonly known as the Southern Cross.
