Description
Let's go caching
While out and about I thought I would place a cache here to help fellow GCA cachers during the Journey or Destination Game 2018/2019.
There is always room for another cache. It is an easy find, a driveby with parking close by.
Watch out for muggles. Bring your own pen
Let's get out and about caching. See you in the field.

After leaving Bruny Island this morning we grabbed a few caches up the channel and then drove straight through Hobart and past 100's of unfound caches to this one.
The GPS initially took us to a non-existent road but we soon worked out where we needed to go.
The find took longer than it should have but we got there in the end. Mr Beetle couldn't believe that I didn't spot this one sooner!!
Thanks, now we pass hundreds more with our next stop the eastern side of Sorrell.

Hi whitewebbs
TFTC,
Out and about today with EeePees and Lil Rafa looking for some caches around the airport sort of area. Before Lil Rafa joined us, we got 2 FTFs of yours and saw a rare occurrence, a plane taking off!
Thanks again,

Hi whitewebbs, thanks for the cache. It's been on my to do list for way too long; I had dinner last week just 120 metres away and still didn't think to wander along to find it!
Anyway, remedied today with a quick find with KingSmev, before heading to your two new caches nearby.
Thanks for great hide.4
Cheers, EPs.

Hello whitewebbs Thanks for the cache.
I had found this cache of yours a long time ago and thought I had logged a find, I went back a month ago to see if it was the same cache. After that trip I thought I had logged a find.
Well Im going to try agian and log a find on this cache of yours.

This was the last of our finds around the airport today while waiting for our PiC to arrive from the north island. 
A clever hide but the spot-on coordinates soon had me signing the log at 17:20 and we were on our way for the post-flight pickup. 
TNLNSL. Thanks whitewebbs.

Journey or Destination
Game Period: 01-Dec-2018 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2019 23:59:59 AEST
It is sometimes said [citation needed] that the game of geocaching is not about the destination it is about the journey. This game is about the choices you make in the experience of the journey or the destination.
On your entry to the game you will be asked to create a playing field with a number of ground tiles. Your playing field is a grid 20 x 20 ground tiles making a total number of 400 possible steps you can take on your journey or destination. You choose whether you want to find and follow the path or whether you wanted to meander around. A playing field is unique to each player so there is no benefit in teaming up to beat the system through brute force.
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. There are a number of different ground tiles that will be revealed when you click on your playing field. It should be noted that there are no punishments for clicking a tile but there will not always be the reward you were hoping for as you reveal each tile.
Dirt. The ground beneath the ground tile is just plain old brown dirt.
Dirt with some points. The ground beneath the tile is brown dirt but it has some points associated with it.
Concrete. The ground beneath is part of the pathway that will lead you on your way to your destination but has no point value.
Start. A concrete ground tile that has a blue map marker.
Destination. A ground tile that has a green map marker.
Meandering around and avoiding the path will accumulate points that will be used to place on you the ladder of wanderers. The more you stay off the path the higher the number of points you will accumulate and it will be your journey that will be the determining factor in whether you place into a prize winning position. You are free to select any ground tile to click on; they do not need to be next to each other.
Trying to find the path may mean you strike out on the dirt until you eventually come across the path and as a geocacher who can't say that this isn't a tried and true method. Once you find the path however will you try and follow the path as it changes direction around your playing field? Do you go North, South, East or West to try and find the next concrete tile along the path? If you head one way are you heading towards the start or towards the destination? When you do happen upon the destination tile then you will automatically be in a winning position.
At any point you are free to change from the journey to the destination and vice versa but you won't be able to regenerate your playing field. You are also free to keep playing as long as you have qualifying geocaches, accumulating more and more dirt tile points and placing you higher and higher on the ladder.
Qualifying geocaches fall into two categories. Finds and Hides.
A qualifying find is a geocache that meets the following criteria:
The geocache is listed at Geocaching Australia
The geocache has a hidden date prior to the game commencing
The geocache was logged by you on the Geocaching Australia website during the game period
The geocache was physically found by you during the game period
The geocache is not owned by you unless it is a moveable geocache
The geocache has not previously been found by you during the game period
The geocache is one of the following types:
Burke and Wills
Moveable (you will qualify only once for a find on a moveable geocache)
Traditional
TrigPoint
Augmented Reality
Beacon
Gadget
Multi-cache
Night Cache
Podcache
Reverse
Unknown or Mystery
A qualifying hide is a geocache that meets the following criteria:
The geocache is listed at Geocaching Australia
The geocache has a hidden date after the game has commenced
The geocache was published on the Geocaching Australia website during the game period
The geocache has a container size of regular or larger (Note: A regular geocache has a volume of 1 litre or more)
The geocache is one of the following types:
Moveable
Traditional
Augmented Reality
Beacon
Gadget
Multi-cache
Night Cache
Podcache
Reverse
Unknown or Mystery
The game tracking mechanism relies upon your honesty when logging geocaches as found or hidden.
The games administrators will undertake verification of a statistically significant number of logs.
Players who continually log inaccurate information will be disqualified from the game. The game administrators decision is final.
The game administrators will subtract qualifying hide or find geocaches from your tally if they are found to be not genuine.
The game administrators reserve the right to provide clarifications to the rules at any point during the game.
Don't forget to claim your limited time game trophies, if your qualify, while the game is in progress. Once the game completes the ability to claim your trophies is lost for ever.
Well, after a long walk and a stop at a shop to get some water, I called by this cache. As it is on airport property, I am doubtful about this one in the long term. My discussions with the airport is they intend to develop this area for retail in the next few years, although who knows if this will be soon or not

This was our last cache find for today. Accurate coordinates soon had the cache in hand and the log signed. As we replaced the container a tiger plane roared down the runway and took off into the darkening sky.
Thanks for yet another cache on the Eastern Shore Whitewebbs.

Stopped in for this cache on the way to the Christmas event. We were pretty sure we knew what we were looking for. It didn't take us long to track it down. Thanks whiterwebbs
Quick find while out with goose and egg on the way to the event down south
Hi whitewebbs
After finishing business on Rosny Hill, this was our next port of call
With a muggle in the "helicopter taxi" parked right on GZ - should I or shouldn't I; that was the question?
After a quick find and realising what the cache was - the answer was I SHOULD!
Without raising a blink of the eye by the muggle; the cache was retrieved, replaced and Sainted at 1030 hours
Clever hide
TFTC and cheers

Thanks for the cache whitewebbs - nice and close to home. Tonight the GeoGSP and I had been at the Sorell Dog Park and as we headed home we decided to take a little detour to grab this cache - it also meant we avoided all the roadworks at the airport which was an added bonus. It was nice and quiet at GZ and the hide was soon spotted. I do like these caches....Cheers.
