28-Dec-13
Had a pretty good look around for this one but no luck. Next time we visit will try again. Since the factory is now I'm told down here at Wollongong I will see if I can place a cache near it.

No ice cream factory and no ice cream but the cache was waiting for us! Nice hide. TFTC Juculu.

Found it! Smile Just like everyone else, I have to say it was not where I expected to find it. Too bad about the Gelato factory. Stopped there once before and enjoyed it. Oh well. SL TFTC

Not sure where the gelato come from.

Found on a run to Queensland with Poynts95 and Sportacuss. Also had with me a few of the kids, James and Jemma. We had an enjoyable trip, stayed in a few motels on the way and bagged 35 caches total. Not huge numbers, but a good mix. Thanks to all cache owners who have hidden and maintain the caches found.

Pretty bold hide, but all good. Found and TFTC.
 
25-Jul-13
We enjoyed the challenge... I wanted a reward of some Gelato but we were by this time running late and had to fly! Thanks Juculu to the taste tempting cache!
 
24-Jul-13
No-one is as blind as those who can not see........well that's what it felt like when we spotted this one. How did that take us 5 minutes to see. Oh well, found it was...and we were soon on our way again.

Thanks for another one Juculu....

995Km from home.

Day two on our "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" tour, a trip to the Mornington Peninsular (Vic) for an Ex Army Apprentice reunion.
A bit harder than we thought but once the fix settled we found it.
We took nothing but memories. we left nothing but footprints,
The hide, the container and the log are all in good condition and ready for the next finder.
Thanks for the cache Juculu and moo cow 007

Gotcha !!! TFTC Visited TB
 
18-Mar-13
Looked everywhere but this was a DNF today. ..again

Co-ords were definte about site, but.....I wonder, reading back over other's logs, maybe we should have spread our search wider.

Second time look and DNF for us here.
Still a trashy site, however, if co-ords are off, maybe the real GZ is better Smile

On my way from Dubbo to Goulburn via Oberon. Unfortunately I didn't have time to stop for a gelato. TFTC.

Thanks ACko

5362 + 584 = 5946. Found on a trip to Dubbo with the Geo-kids GSC2000 and Stardust2410...

Firstly - thank you (NOT) for putting the thought of Gelato into my kids heads !! Lol just kidding - they were out of the car looking before I could turn the engine off. A quick find was made and we were on our way. (Ok so they got Icecream at Dinner - I can spoil them if I want too !!). Thanks for the leg stretch Juculu - and you owe me $7.00.... Smile

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....
 
03-Oct-12
hi all it looks like we were muggled but re installed and all good to go again enjoy a gelato after your efforts and share your fav! by the way of a hint it is NOT on the ground! enjoy Smile
 
02-Oct-12
MAINTENANCE OR ARCHIVAL?????

Firstly, as EVERYONE says, the coords ARE OFF. Please be kind enough to fix, as SOOOOOOOOOO much time is spent wandering all over the place -to no avcail.

Secondly, on the way to Qld, I spent AN HOUR here to no avail, searched INSIDE the fence as well as out. (& off course THE tree & all the other trees).
On way back from Qld, spent another 30 mins here - TO NO AVAIL. YES< even widened the search area CONSIDERABLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES - EVEN FAF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO CACHE!
 
13-Sep-12
Lookend and looked until we started getting strange looks from passing cars and gave up so DNF for us. Oh well next time!
 
16-Jun-12
It was raining quite steadily as we pulled up near GZ. We searched the obvious locations without success. We then widened our search area a little and the cache was found, well within the limits of accuracy of our GPS. It was a good hide. TFTC Juculu
 
13-Jun-12
Like others before us, we went for the obvious, but incorrect location.
It turned out to be a matter of standing in the right location to catch a glimpse of the cache container.
TFTC Juculu
 
06-Jun-12
Found (eventually) with friends. TFTC
 
06-Jun-12
Forgot to visit TB
 
26-May-12
Arrived at GZ and just like everyone else went for the obvious choice. No joy.

Thought about the logs I had read and remembered the lizard picture so that took me in another direction.

Was about to give it away but turned on the iPhone caching app and read a few more logs. No so much as a hint in one but it gave me another direction. And there it was, a tricky hide. Glad to have found it.

No time for gelato today but now know where it is.

14-May-12
Oh the shame! My fourth DNF for the day Sad It really wasn't happening for me; must have been a Monday...

The co-ordinates seemed a little off for this one, and the nearby obvious hiding spot didn't yield anything either. Maybe next time...

But to console myself, I did have a gelato (gelati?) - not bad at all. Smile
 
22-Mar-12
Found it while staying one week in Molong and on a jogging round with the kids.
Wasn'that easy and we had to search around. But with 4 pair of eyes there is no hiding.

5 caches in and around Molong today and what better way to finish them off by enjoying a delicious Gelato Smile TFTC
 
13-Jan-12
Nice quick find but too cold for Gelato sorry TFTC Juculu and moocow007 Dried out the water in the container too!
 
31-Dec-11
Very late log for this one.Found on our drive back to Brissie after spending Christmas in Tumut. Arrived just as they were locking the Gelato Factory. Doh! TFTH Smile
 
30-Dec-11
On a road trip with the eldest daughter, she made the find when I asked her to check the spot it was in after I had performed a colonoscopy on the tree.
 
08-Nov-11
Found beneath a stormy sky during an afternoon drive from Orange to Dunedoo. I wouldn't have known of this local atttaction but will now bring the geocrew for a visit when they are next in the area. Thanks Juculu.
 
01-Nov-11
Our 5565th overall find.

I was on the phone when I pulled up at this one which was probably a good thing as the traffic rolled by for a few minutes. Magically once I hung up and started searching I had nothing come past. Like so many others I looked in the obvious spots before finding the cache.

Thanks Juculu for the cache.

We looked in the obvious place but no joy, then Geo-dad had a moment of brilliance.
Big Bearded dragon on the fence stay, that was quite content to sit and watch.
Burnt Caramel was the best flavour! Heaps of Muggle's about as well, but over all very enjoyable cache!
 
01-Oct-11
Great cache. TFTC
 
01-Oct-11
This one had us briefly fooled. It was raining so we drove right up to the namesake's sign and started looking, only to later notice the cache was some distance back. Then we began looking in the obvious spot without result, and were about to give up when I saw something likely a few metres further away again, but that wasn't it either, but the cache was next to it. So made this a lot harder than it needed to be but got there in the end. Thanks Juculu.

4697. [font=Century Gothic][green]Mr Winglen did it all on this one and I was a mere passenger. Funny how he saw something 3 times to locate the cache. Alls well that ends in a smiley.

Orange 11. I was a bit distracted by the more obvious spot, but when I found the cache I had a chance to see a fantastic lizard up close as it sat still and pretended I could not see it. Thanks.

Had to first have the recommended Burnt Caramel - yum! Thank you for the cache.
 
20-Sep-11
Found it after checking out the obvious hollow near by. Thankfully after a short search of the hollow and coming up empty the search was widened and soon the cache was located and thankfully away from the all the rubbish.

TFTC
 
08-Sep-11
Another great spot we'd not have found without caching!

This was a great morning tea stop.

Dad - Jaffa Sorbet & Peach/Raspberry Gelato
Mum - Burnt Caramel (DJ Should have had that it was sensational & she didn't give me any more than a taste.)
Aislin - Choc Gelato
Renae - Cookies & Cream Gelato.

A thoroughly enjoyed cache stop. Kids loved it.

Finding the cache afterwards was a little tricky until we read previous logs & moved a little to the side of the main distraction.

On our way to Blayney...Ms Bushies2 found it after a short search...glad it was well away from the nearby rubbish around tree. Thanks Juculu for another cache in this town.
 
16-Aug-11
Nicely thought out. We too searched the obvious but did not find. TFTC
 
16-Aug-11
Resisted the Gelato in favour of the cache. Nicely hidden - thank you.
 
12-Aug-11
In summer my ice cream would melt before I got back to the cache. I looked in the obvious spot to no avail. Then I cast my net wider. Success very soon afterwards.
 
10-Aug-11
Big Grin Working in the area for a few days, so took the opertunity to do some searching. After a short serch an easy find. TFTF
 
03-Aug-11
Quite a busy intersection. Found quickly and retreated to the car to do the signing of the log. Not a big ice cream fan so kept on going. The kids might like to come here though.

TFTC
 
11-Jul-11
Well I probably has the same thought as all others, a nice bit of gelato and a quick cache. A clever hide though reminds one that the first place you look may not be the right place. Found with unicornnikita and little blue elephant. TFTC
 
03-Jul-11
DNF – Checked the most obvious spot and surrounds with no luck today. Maybe next time, after reading the previous logs I should have extended my search area, and will make time some gelato as well.
