maybe lost?Looks like lobster has been repainted and perhaps cache hasn’t been replaced? Was not “where the meat is”
Day 1 of The Nothern Adventure with megawat60.
No luck here despite a search where the hint suggested.

Out with m4yb and the Two+Four team on our way north.
Thanks for the hide & smiley
Thanks for the hide & smiley
Sorry for the late log. On the way back to Perth, and then back home. Used the clue, as I felt a bit obvious - liked the cryptic hint. TFTC.
On our way up to the Murchison for Easter we decided to continue our cache hunt north of Jurien, we located the cache but no paper so we added a piece of paper and we walked away with a smiley today, both on our faces and our profile, what a great spot for a cache TFTC
Thanks to Parkacruz for leaving a piece of paper. Met them a few caches down the highway but even though 4 pax searched there we had to log a DNF. Here we found the GC.

After visiting Jurien Bay we drove further northwards, with Kalbarri NP as our final destination. On the way we have visited the wonderful Pink Lake and several convict settlements. Geraldton was not our favorite today. Today was 10 degrees cooler than it is supposed to be at this time of the year..
Found only the container, it has no paper in it...

We are staying in Port Denison for the night and took the opportunity to grab this cache whilst we are here.
After looking around for a couple of minutes Bear made the find.
The log was missing so we have replaced it.
Thank you for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.

Our Western Australia wander continues. Not sure if we were dealing with a male or female but just the same it was a little embarrasing having to check beneath the skirt to score this smilie. Replaced the log sheet.
Thanks DevilDog3
Thanks DevilDog3
Took the kids a while but they found it.
The log book is full and needs to be replaced asap

Finding this cache was easier than grabbing. Finally my wife had to get it and I wrote the log
We enjoyed our journey along the coast as we travelled from Durien to Geraldton today and feeling the temperature rise. Quick find here. Thanks DevilDog3
Stopped @ Moreton bay cafe & enjoyed a " long mac"
Thus fully charged went down to tackle the beast @ the gateway to Dongara.
Skillfully timing my charge to avoid passing muggled in their chariots, I was successful in gaining the prize

Headed up to Geraldton for 4 days to try and find as many caches as we could. Its been 6 months since we were last there and there has been so many new caches come out that we will need another trip there to find them all. We ended up finding 215 and about a dozen DNFS. We picked a few up on the way and did a detour on the way home to Mullewa and i must say the wildflowers are beautiful at the moment. We found a great variety of caches including a couple of wherigo,s, lots of field puzzles, multi,s and the highlight for the hubby was doing the chirp cache. I would like to say all caches were found quickly but that definately wasnt the case lol.... There was some very tricky and sneaky hides that took quite a while to find with a few we went back a couple of times to till we found them. We managed to find a few that we previously had DNFS on and it was was great finding a lot of creative cache containers especially some of the field puzzle ones. Thanks to everyone for the caches and hope to find a lot more on our next trip to geraldton....
tftc devildog3 a quick easy find after doing some scrambling up onto the boat in the rain with plenty of muggles driving past. Was n my way back to Perth after the event in Geraldton.
Originally logged under clan-wallace. Geohubby wants his own caching name so guess who is relogging the lot for him?
Headed to Geraldton for the International Geocaching Day event on Saturday 20th August.
Barnzy12 and I packed the car at 6am and headed North. Despite making a critical error by choosing the freeway to start the journey we then made it to Geraldton and checked into the motel by 5.30pm.
We found several caches along the way some new, old and even archived caches. As I missed the event last year I was guided to some others on the map that I hadn't found before and made for some quicker finds yet still enjoyable.
Ended up back at the motel after getting the new plane spotting series and some other caches close to the city centre at around 9pm. Beers were cold and was then time to relax. After a 15 hour day sleep was needed ready for the big day tomorrow.

This one was an absolute must as I spent a lot of time solving an MS puzzle that included this BIG feller. NEF, after the gardener had left! Tftc
