Its anniversary time and this year its GMelbs turn to choose the secret destination which is Port Albert (in the hope there may be an Aurora) Today we set off to do some caches in the surrounding town and this was next and a nice easy find.

It’s road trip time. With plenty of places out east that have yet to be explored, OzHockeyChick and I set off to see some sights in Gippsland.

A nice old church that could do with some TLC as it starts to rot away (helped by birds attacking it).

Thanks Poiter.h for adding this cache to the worldwide collection for us all to enjoy.

TFTC nice quick find whilst staying in the area

Fun cache.

The church is looking very sad hopefully it will be cared for by someone

The church is so beautiful and important it is disappointing to see the timber rotting etc. TFTC

Found it

What a great piece of history

TFTC

Beaut spot

Sandyofthesea and I took off from Perth at the start of April to travel more of Australia using geocaching as a guide to see the sights. How good is this country!!

Poiter.h, I found Tarraville Church today. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.

Found it

Nice old building, good to see it hasn't fallen into disrepair.

Easy to find

Another One bites the dust tftc

Good spot thanks

Another one bites the dust ,...

We decided to go for a day trip drive to Port Welshpool/Port Albert with the kidlets from home in Melb.

It's been a while since we have done much caching so we thought we would do a few today to help break up the long drive.

Mrs P selected this cache, and what a great one. Very interesting history and a beautiful old building.

Loved the nearby mangrove lined river as well - the kids especially enjoyed watching all the soldier crabs in the muddy shore.

Thanks for bringing this interesting area to our attention greynomads/poiter.h. Really worth a visit.

Thanks for the cache greynomads/poiter.h.

The condition of the church is incredible when considering the age of it.
Beautiful little town that directed us to Robertson's Beach and Manns Beach.
TFTC!

No luck today despite looking in all the places the hint could be referring to. Felt conspicuous with the surrounding residences all having cars parked at them and windows overlooking our activities. Lovely old church.

TFTC! What an interesting place.

A lovely windy family day out, perfect for checking out this beautiful location. A nice quick find with Mr 5 navigating and then the whole family wanting to check it out. Thanks for the cache!

1st successful geocache. Thanks. Loved the history and the building.

Good place

Thanks for placing thie cache here, its a nice spot, cache is dry not like the one next to it which was very wet. Thanks

Beautiful church for sure! We think some muggles drove past to, so be careful!

Nice quick find, good coords led me straight to it.TFTC

Loverly church

Found safe and well

We're staying at the nearby Yarram Caravan Park and decided to come for a drive to check out the area and incidentally fill in a space on our geocaching calendar. We always love a cache at a historical site and this church reminded us of one we saw in Latvia a few years ago. Or was it Lithuania? Either way we were reminded

Thanks for find #1557

We stayed in Port Albert for NYE and drove out to Tarraville to collect a couple of caches. Amazing history in this area. We rang the church bell. Thanks for the cache

Awesome little local history lesson. Really liked this little church as well as the town in general. Thank you for drawing us here.

Tftc!

What a beautiful little church. Today it contrasts with the grey of the sky making it especially cheery. There are singing birds around it to.
The cache is in good condition
Replaced where found. Not quite where hint specifies. Tftc

Came down from Maffra to have a look at the Yarram Easter Parade, so decided to grab the Tarraville caches while so close.

Love this old church - a great structure in this part of South Gippsland.

Thanks greynomads for this placement.

Tarraville Church was transferred from greynomads to user Poiter.h

Cute church

Thanks

Tftc

Took a quick check but didn't find it where it was originally placed, so cache container replaced. It could be that the original sistema container might be nearby but we didn't spot it. New container is a camo rock.

I give up

Cant find

We loved the church, a beautiful old church, it would be good to see inside. SL TFTC

Took a while, but we got it!

Found today on a quick visit to Gippsland to see a friend. Amazing church and still in good condition.
Thanks for the cache greynomads

Yep it's an oldie but a goodie thanks for showing me...TFTC

Nice church to check out while here.

Lil bit tricky

Was a bit of a stretch

Found it with bikesu.Tftc

Day 13 of our caravan trip going South from Queensland. We stopped at my birthplace Culcairn, explored Phillip Island and then Wilsons Prom. Met friends from Queensland in Port Albert and now heading home.

Tftc

Nice spot and yes prayed haha

Beautiful little church - TFTC

Tftc easy find

After a long work week fish and chips at port albert was on the cards. With full tummies we headed home and decided to grab this when there wouldnt be many eyes about. Tftc. All in good condition.

What a stunning old church. We stopped and took a few photos before heading towards the next cache.
Thanks for the hide,
Regards The Coffee’s

Woo hoo tftc. was looking for a much larger container. Its actually a 200ml sistema. Interesting old church.

Prayed for a while but my prayers were finally answered! TFTC it brought us to a hidden part of Gippsland.

First DNF
Hubby & I looked everywhere.
Hope it has not been taken.
Good luck to the next searcher.

Using the hint for this cache made the find easier and somewhat quicker too. All was in good condition and the log was duly signed before being returned to its proper hiding place. Old churches are always interesting and it looked as though the bell could still be rung, but we did not dare to try it. Thanks greynomads for a cache at an historical building in a lovely area.

Our whole trip today was purely to get this cache and go to the beach. We didnt make it to the beach but did find this one. My 5x Great grandfather helped build this church and a lot of the family are buried in the area. Id never been here, so though why not. Found nice and easily. TFTC

TFTC. Found it after a lot of praying.

A quick find today with hubby and the geokids as we continue our Gippsland holiday adventure. So many stunning places to visit! This was a quick find picked up on our way from Paynesville to Toora. What a cute church. So quaint. Many thanks for the cache.

Delightful little church. Great history. So interesting about it being made without nails.
Time for Muggle Hubby to get down and dirty.
Cache found, log signed and replaced.
Thanks for bringing us off the highway to see this, it was well worth it.

A quick find at this wonderful old historical church that is very well maintained.
Of course Mr Beetle couldn't leave without ringing the bell on the way out.
Thanks.
