02-Jan-18
Nope, not here today.
 
15-Dec-17
After extensive search of area and with help of hint we still could not find any trace of cache, perhaps needs maintenance?
 
17-Aug-17
Had a good search above and below, then checked the hint and tried some other ideas. Found some other treasure, but no cache, I'm afraid.

Atta-boy Ataturk [^]
Amazing to see his statue sitting here in such a commanding position over King George Sound Smile

Yep !! The world can change Smile
Though most of the time it does it without our prior consent Razz

Somewhere around the area,
I sorted out what the clue meant,
and found me a cache Big Grin

Then the peace was shattered !!
By a couple of rednecks who really didn't care about the views, the history, or the peace and quiet.
It was all about them Sad
And don't they talk sh@t ?? !!

As they finished their ciggies, and tossed the butts into the scrub still lit, and giggled off,
peace returned to this great lookout Big Grin

TFTC !!

Ja, wir haben uns getraut! Die Hochzeit als ein ganz besonderer Tag im Leben zweier Menschen, der unserer Meinung nach viel zu schnell verging. Aber um das Geschehene wirklich genießen zu können und den Stress der vergangenen Monate zu vergessen, eignen sich die zweisamen Flitterwochen bestens. Dies Planung dafür war bereits vor der eigentlichen Hochzeitsplanung abgeschlossen^^ Uns verschlug es dafür nach Down Under - an das andere Ende der Welt, ca. 16.200km entfernt. Wir starteten unsere Rundreise an der sonnigen Westküste um Perth über die stürmische Südküste zwischen Adelaide und Melbourne zu den im nebelverhangenen Tasmanien. Die Vielfalt der Landschaften und Möglichkeiten scheint unbegrenzt: Dünen hinabsurfen, Schluchten herabsteigen, Wasserfälle bestaunen, an Traumstränden Kängurus beobachten, Caches suchen…. Aber immer mit einem wachsamen Auge, denn hier scheint hinter jedem Stein und in jeder Spalte etwas zu krabbeln, was mich vielleicht mehr als meinen Stift kostet. Aber alles gut gegangen, nun sind wir wieder in der Heimat und schwelgen in Erinnerungen^^
Vielen Dank für den Cache als Teil einer unvergesslichen Hochzeitsreise! Liebe Grüße miss_stella aus Leipzig
Thanks for the cache as part of a memorable honeymoon! Greetings miss_stella from Leipzig

#2 find today as I walked the track into town. Have enjoyed all the wildlife of various kinds as well as the wonderful views. An easy quick find and as I couldn't find any Tbs decided to leave one. It's not the beach but I am sure the little fellow will enjoy the view. TFTC SL

Day 5 and our last day in Albany. Had an easy morning and then spent the rest of the day shopping & caching and seeing some more of the Albany historic sights. We have had a great time over the week, being blessed with good weather and great caching. Thanks to all the CO's we appreciate the time and effort to place and maintain the caches Big Grin

A quick diversion and nice adjunct to the "History Tour". We had seen reference to Ataturk in other places during the week, so it was good to get a more complete story about this man and his place in our history and that of Turkey. He must have been an impressive leader.

Thanks for the cache Cruznoz [^] - all was good and dry and it was a bit exposed when we found it. Replaced in a more covered alignment with the hint.

Out and about grabbing a few last caches before running out of daylight and then having to head home in the morning. Tango and Ralph have been delightful hosts during my stay and the variety of caches has been awesome. A very special thanks to you Cruznoz - your caches are amazing.

16:00. Ataturk was a true statesman and visionary and it's good to see the reconciliation between Turkey and Australia recognised here at Albany. I wonder what he'd think of what's happening in Turkey and thereabouts these days. TFTC
