Away for a few days so doing some of the back roads and weaving our way around, picking up some more of the hides, which we haven't got previously.

It was a slightly windy day but we were making the most of it. We had a lovely day taking in some beach and river views and finding some great hide. Had a few DNF's but was very happy to pick up some unloved finds.

Wandered in and made this find, after a short search. Happy to pick up some unloved here. Container in good condition.

Thanks flange_1&tribe for placing the cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy the find.

Tassie Trip Day 211 - This was a great day to take on a the little trail whilst it was not too busy in the area the trail was soon completed and then it was off to the beach for a couple more and a great walk along the shore with the rest of the team staying in the Geo Vehicle and moving it to the other end of the area. I had an error in the head today that saw me use the wrong date all day it should be the 18 apr 19 but my pen wrote 17 apr 19 sorry but the electronic log is correct.

BOY O'BOUY what a walk this is turning in to be and it was a great place for the walk it would have been nicer if the tide was a little lower and the location was one of those thank god I eventually found it and it was with relief when it was found.

Thanks FLANGE_1&TRIBE for bringing us here to collect a smiley.

I bought the dog and went for a nice and easy walk along the beach to collect this and the other cache near by. Both caches were easily found and are in good condition.

An afternoons caching up towards george town and lulworth, after my last trip to tassie I had missed to caches at bell buoy beach, a new multi had been published and a DNF at lulworth needed to be recovered.
All the caches were easily found.
Thanks for the cache.

I rode the pushie out from George Towne this morning,
and was enjoying a break from pedalling Big Grin
Nothing like a noice beach stroll on a coolish day [^]

At GZ I took one look at the scenery and let out a sigh [:o]
To quote the cache notes ..
.. "The cache should be easy found so there is no hint".

STOP SAYING THAT !! Twisted

I took a deep breath.
And wandered in to do battle.
The previous cache had been hidden in a rather random bush.

Maybe there was a 'sign',
something significant in the seemingly endless view of nasty scrub,
that might help point to this cache ?? Smile

'Bout 20 minutes later,
I discovered that there was [^]
Wiping the remaining blood that was oozing from the scratches on me legs,
I signed the logbook.

TFFT !! Razz

A very quick find on a lovely stretch of beach. tftc

After spotting the cache from the other side of the bushes, I soon scrambled around and had my cache in hand Smile

"Well boy o' bouy!" After finding Bell Bouy & a couple of others nearby it's taken us nearly 18 months to get ourselves to it's not too distant neighbours. It being lowish tide & sunny what's more, it was a wonderful walk along the beach. Cache in reasonable nick after 7 years in the wilds.

Easy find cache in good order

Out with Carlin&Sondra geocaching along the beach. Great day, no wind, no muggles and not too cold. Quick find.
 
We had walked from the cache to the North-east and had made slow time due to it being high tide, but upon getting to GZ we had to search for a bit before the was spotted and we were yet again on our way after signing the log.

Thanks for the cache.

We were short on time but still wanted to find these coastal caches so went for it. It was high tide and the going was tough. It took us longer than we hoped to get here but we enjoyed the warm afternoon air. Found quickly by the egg again. TFTC

Of course I picked the wrong path in, but a nice easy find nonetheless
Many thanks flange_1&tribe from the Wacky one Cool

Decided on the 5 caches along this shore as a bit of a challenge for us. Great afternoon, tide quite low and really enjoyable walk. The best part of the walk.

Travelling around Australia and now in Tasmania!

Today we headed out from Loira to pick up a few caches on the coast, picking up some we didnt manage to stop at in the last few days.

Beautiful warm day today, much warmer than we have seen for quite some time.

Mr Felix walked from Bell Bay to George Town, whilst Mrs Felix drove the GeoCruiser to pick him up. Cache found in good order. Razz

Hi Flange
This cache is as good as the first two I've found today.
Lovely day for walking and early morning exercise.
Sainted the cache at 0753hrs.
Lingered a while here too - just admire the scenery, enjoy the salt air and thank nature for its serenity and beauty.
TFTC and cheers

Very windy and rough seas today. Luckily Sammy nowhere to be seen. A nice walk along beach ( tide out) with geodog. Tftc
 
17-Apr-14
The tide was on it's way out on our stroll along the "beach" so we were practising our balance act walking on rocks. Arrived at GZ and started our search while keeping an eye out for legless lizards. Looking, looking, looking.......finally!!! No lizards but a well hidden cache. TFTC
 
16-Feb-14
After a long trek over very rocky terrain, not good in thongs & battling with the sand flies we located but didn't sign due to the area being very overgrown & the tiger snake sunning himself. Thought we would head and find coastal stroll & attempt on way back. Sammy snake still there.

Mr and Mrs Seek3rs are over in Tasmania on holidaying from SA ...

Another day of caching ... going for a nice walk along the beach from Bell Bouy Beach.

A very pleasant walk and an easy find ... although made it harder by trekking too much off the beach and into the vegetation ... then got the geosense back and found it.

Added Seek3rs sticker and date to the log.

Thanks flange_1&tribe for another cool hide. We walked the beach from the Bell Bouy beach side and back. A lovely 4km round trip in the late afternoon. This was the second of the 4. Thanks for organising the caches and providing our geocaching enjoyment today on Recreation Day. TNLNSL. TFTC!

19/04/2011 21:11 Found: #406 Far easier to find than Bell Buoy. I walked slightly past GZ and then made a beeline. At the obvious location I found this well camoed cache in seconds. Now I had to decide to go on or return to Bell Buoy and the car. As I wanted more than one find tonight and not knowing whether I would actually get Bell Buoy I decided to walk another 390m up the beach and try my luck there. TFTC flange_1&tribe TNLN SL

Great walk on a cold wintery day, our old pup who was along for the walk didnt like it much due to the high tide, the rocks were a bit tough on her feet and she sat down about 5 or 6 times on the way there! Gu had enough and went in search of GZ on is own while pup and DGT had a rest! TFTC.

Would you believe it? Having hardly spotting a single soul all morning I walk to Gz to find two muggles wandering aimlessly . I had to walk past and come back to log this one. Dad muggle did look at me strangely as I passed on the way back. TNLN. TFTC

Another very enjoyable coastal stroll with geo-pooch and with tide just out far enough. Found easily with exc. co-rds and top hide. Many thanks F & T...Cheers.

The walk along the beach to and from this cache was superb - very warm day, light winds and great scenery. A quick find after a 15 minute walk to the cache. TFTC
 
05-Apr-10
Junior cachers found this a long walk and it was windy as well, but great to find it. Also great to find no snakes. Wouldn't have visited this windswept and wild beach if there was no cache to lead us there.
 
18-Mar-10
Walked along from Bell Buoy and found it not as windy here. Saw 2 Whoopee Cushions in the cache, but decided we already had one and we couldn't be greedy. Took a pink rabbit instead and left our usual soldier. TFTC

A lovely beach stroll without any wind. Well worth the effort. TNLN Thanks
 
27-Jan-10
Yes a lovely stroll along the beach....many thanks.

Decided to forgo the traditional Australia Day bbq and head to Bridport and grab a few caches. Plus there were a few caches like this one to pick up on the way. A nice beach walk and we soon had the cache in hand. Thanks.
 
24-Jan-10
The boys went for a walk today to find this cache while the girls were showering a baby? nearby.... Thanks for another one Flange and the flangettes

Nice stroll down the beach at high tide in the evening. No worries, still able to walk on the sand today except for the odd occasion when a bigger wave came in.

Thanks for the cache FLANGE_1&TRIBE
