Lots of rubbish and burnt stumps at GZ but we couldn’t find a cache.
 
Approached GZ. Got swarmed by an ungodly wall of mosquitoes that all went straight in our clothes, hats and anything else they good. Ran away. Doused ourselves in aeroguard. Sprayed aeroguard inside our clothes. No idea what's caused that infestation but we couldn't get close to that cache without a full hazmat suit. Go on well protected if you're going here soon!

Feeling a little bored today went for a drive to see what cars or trucks might be on the road side. Not much there today, did see a cement truck going by but not for sale.

I was looking for a Ferrari, I know this is a bit better than might be on any such corner but anyway worth a look. I then went lookin for the cache that was here, it was a nice easy one to find, I also left a trackable here. I found it, signed it, then replaced it.

Onto the next stop. T4FC Whoarewiis Lil Donna

Hello The Whoarewiis thanks for the cache.

I had come up to Newcastle to my sons engagement / house warming party.
After recovering from the party we went and did a bit of sight seeing.

This was one of the caches close to home.

The cache was easily found.

A lot of rubbish around GZ.

Thanks for the cache The Whoarewiis

The cut and paste bit.
We are on a trip from South Africa to the East. First stop Singapore to visit family including a weekend trip to Batam Island, Indonesia. After that we fly to Brisbane, Australia, drive down to Sydney and then back to Singapore. A week with our children and grandchildren and then back home via a stop over in Dubai.

Thanks to all the COs that made our trip more enjoyable. Greetings from South Africa

I came up from Sydney last night and stayed with a good friend in Elermore Vale so I could get a early start up to shoal bay for a day of caching.
Stop here for this one on my way. TFTC.

Tftc. This cache took much longer to find than it should have. Our instincts were telling us to look in one place, but our phones had us a few metres away. Eventually we had cache in hand. We took a Carnival Cruise players club chip, left a little toy koala, signed the log and went to have some lunch.

Finally after bout 20mins. Had me stumped. HAHA
