On our way to south we stopped in this cute little city overnight. Thanks for this cache and greetings from Finland.
Signed as imzebra as in abbreviation of the group down from Sydney. Rather quick find here, thanks for the placement
Finalf29 and I were in Nowra for a very early appointment... but couldn't stay long afterwards as we had another appointment later in the day back home... sigh.Nice easy find but had to use all my stealth experience to retrieve and put back... love these types that are hiding in plain sight! Thanks for the fun
It was in a old mints container with a black sort of tape around it it took us about 5mins not to hard you should try it!!
Thankyou this is our first Cache as a family found we are happy. We be called team nature
A quick find at a busy intersection. A nice old piece of early farm equipment, thanks.
Full time Nomads, travelling around Australia since 2014. We expected to be hunkered down all day today with the forecast rainstorm but by midmorning it was still clear so we headed out for a few hours. Well the rain stayed away and we didn't get home until it was dark! TFTC WEEO
This cache was fun and easy to do. The cache is hidden in such a fun and creative way. perfect for beginners who want to find there first cache. I rate it 7/10
Found it. Nice to find out some information about the old police station. Husband's father was a police officer at the station next door.
A quick find. Also a TB in residence. Will log its visit and leave for the next finder.T4TC.
Out at the nearby park, decided to come and check it out but couldn't find it.
Visited it during 28-days geotrip to Australia, N.Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji, Am.Samoa, Fr.Polynesia with Marci, Ch. Sometimes we logged as "MT" or "Jonea" or "MTCh". Thanks for showing nice caches and places. MT-Jonea from Brno city in Czechia EU.
Decided to pick up another which was a very quick find. Looks like some locals may spend nights on the nearby verandah.TFTC WEEO and the conversation
We had to detour to Nowra to do our washing so I popped out to grab a cache while the laundry was washing. Of course someone came and sat on the steps behind me to make a phone call. I had to be discreet to grab the cache and sign the log.
After spending some time up at Bega Boycey1943 and I decided to find some caches while stopping in Nowra. TFTC!!
Down touring the coast with Tankengine, Youban, Joolay and Aquilus1. We wanted to get away for a bit of fun and didnt expect it to be so much in the sun we planned this trip. But 30 degrees at the beginning of September although nice, is a bit of a climate shock to the body. So hot!Well this was too funny. I cant believe how long ago half our team had found this one. Tftc!!!
Away for the weekend with Joolay, dty73, Tankengine and youban. We had an oldie and an LGA as our target and many others of interest as we passed. It was a beautiful area to visit and the weather was lovely. Many thanks for your cache that added to our enjoyment.
An after dinner find, a quick find here. Log full so added a bit of paper.

Day 4. A last minute plan had been hatched to make my way to QOGM. Very little planning had been done but a very rough outline was in place and it was going to be a day by day trip.
Batemans Bay to Wollongong with lots of stops in between.
Winding my way north and made this quick stop.
Thanks WEEO for adding this cache to the worldwide collection for us all to enjoy.

TFTC Our first ‘foreign’ find visiting family in Australia. Great hiding place. The log is now full. Thanks.
I found it after a thorough search. It was well hidden. Absolutely genus idea. It took me a good few minutes of searching to find it. Love it
Did not find must not be there and felt like we were acting suss and around a old and new police station lol
#3433 Another visit to another old building. No Old Police here today but the cache at least was quickly located. Thanks WEEO for showing us this historic spot.
Trying to complete the December challenge cache but due to being in remote areas for a week with limited caches available I have fallen behind in me quest. The completed challenge so far
- Attended 1/1 CITO events
- collected 7/7 different cache types
To complete
- 62/71 caches logged
This being number 62
Decided to take Zombie850 on a caching afternoon to explore the local area more. Arrived at this location and it was only a few minutes before Zombie850 had the cache in hand. We signed the log and replaced it as found for the next cacher to find.

Geowife got an early Christmas present if a massage at a nearby beauty clinic and so I got an early treat if about 90 minutes to go caching in Nowra. Met some interesting locals and found most of the caches I looked for (and started yet another adventure lab).
Was hoping for a nearby puzzle so found a convenient park and was right next to this (and the AdLab point) - cache was a quick find (though very exposed here) and so signed a bit further away (I had more trouble with the other here as I had the wrong photo!). Pen played up so is more scratched than written.
Turned out to be my last cache In Nowra

Nice find after on sunny day after the rain the last couple of days . Perfect hide for a cache . TFTC
How busy can it get, traffic, a person mowing, someone standing around. But don't think a muggle saw me.
Exploring the South Coast for a few days.
After completing the nearby adventure lab checkpoint, we decided to search for one more cache in the dwindling sunlight, luckily we had no trouble locating it, all in great shape.
Thanks for the cache

On an adventure down the south coast with my Chauffer decided to visit this nice little area.
More history of the area. This would have been a busy place in its day, people coming and going for all number of reasons. Today it still would be, for the museum and for GeoCachers.
The cache was an easy find, right were it was expected to be. Upon finding it, put on my monogram, replaced it where it was. Now on with our adventure...
Thanks WEEO for bringing us to this historic area and this cache...
