The sea creatures had drawn in plenty of tourists today, the car park was full but the placement of the cache meant we could easily grab it unnoticed. And it helps if its in the first place you put your hand. You can take your dog in there...?? TFTC Liz and Bruce.

This is day 3 of my Exmouth trip and today I'm heading from Kalbarri to Denham Cool! On a windy, but beautiful day I'm collecting many caches on my way north - such as several Traditionals and Earthcaches - 1 Virtual was also part of the list Razz. Thanks for giving me so many opportunities to pause my journey.....

This is today's final cache, which could be found after some searching....

Catching up on some late logs, now that I have time, while travelling.

We are on the road travelling up through central Australian and down the coast of WA. I was happy to grab a few caches along the way and this was one of them.

It took a bit to locate this as it was more in scattered parts. Replaced container so hopefully easier to find.

Thanks for placing this cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy finding it.

Popped into the Aquarium on our way out of town. We highly recommend stopping for lunch. If you do, have the Seafood Share Platter. It's delicious!
The cache is bigger than I expected from the description. It's well hidden, but at the same time an easy find.
TFTC!
 
28-Apr-21
Quite a quick find. I found an official looking geocache, but not small. The container is cracked so will suffer when it rains. As we are driving south to our retirement we don't have any spare containers that we can use to replace. TFTC
 
23-Apr-21
Exploring around Denham and surrounds today and picking up a number of caches. We both said "found it" at the same time. What!!!! How confusing. The cache I found just contained an old fuel receipt with a number of logs recorded. Hubby found another cache with more logs, which looked like it may be the official cache. To stop more confusion, we placed the receipt log in the more official cache and took the other one away. Reading previous logs now, which we didn't do prior to finding, it seems there may even be another one lurking around. Thanks Liz and Bruce for placing this cache for our enjoyment.
 
19-Jan-21
Found before our Ocean Park experience
 
04-Jan-21
Found the cache after enjoying lunch and a tour. After reading the comments it sounds as though there may be 2 caches as this definitely wasnt a micro, it was spot on GZ though
