I will replace this one. I come in here once a week during term but I just keep forgetting to bring a replacement container. I will work on it being back by the end of July.
Was able to check this one today and it is certainly gone. I will try and replace it soon but will not be back this way until first weekend in May.
Looks like this may have gone missing. I will be able to check it in a bit over a week. Until then I will disable it.
We looked and looked but didn't find the cache. Think we found attachment point. Maybe the next time we are in Australia we will look. thanks anyway.
Nobody around and spent quite some time looking. Unless it's been moved from hint altitude I can't seem to find it.
Hints from geofriend helped. Very nice area. Lots of music and dancers. SL TNLN THTC TFTH
Nalezeno na konci dovolene v Sydney. Nekolik dni jsem hledala kes pro muj GC a podarilo se. TFTC. IN GC.
Lots of office workers sitting around eating lunch. They were too interested in their food to worry about us as we made a quick grab.
Great out of the muggle area spot. Grabbed very nice TB and will take to Europe
With the helpful hint I found the cache in less than a minute, thanks kuwtjones.
Nice Place with a great view! Found it at 11:28h.

Nice easy find by Silver Sovereign and myself and just after signing and returning the cache a couple of muggles on a tour walked past.

Had a really long search with my little torch in the dark with no one in sight. Not sure if it has been muggled. Would think this would be relatively easy given clues.
There were a few muffles in the area so we didn't do a super thorough search. Bit keeping the hint in mind turned up nothing (aside from the magnet that is mentioned on the cache page as not being the cache). Too bad we won't be able to come back to look some more.
Found this one on my roadtrip through Australia while exploring Sydney for a couple of days. My second attempt here cause a high muggle activity forced a retreat the day before. I really enjoyed the view here.
Thanks for bringing me here &

And that's 31 Days of Geoc... oh wait, that was last August. Well, I kept my ministreak going all through January. But how much longer? That's a rhetorical question, BTW - I'm not answering it.
Arrived at the wharf after work and walked to GZ. A few muggles wandering past occasionally, and two who wanted directions to the bar at the end of the pier, but no real trouble doing a quick search.
Found it and took it to the other side of the wharf to complete signing duties. To anyone walking past I took a number of photos of the view - a great one I must say.

Quick find at awesome spot ! Retrieved travelbug which was much too big for this kind of container.
Easy to find after bridge disappointment. Took us to a beautiful spot we wouldn't have seen otherwise. Left trackable, see ya Zombie Pigman have a great journey!
A NICE LAST DAY IN aUSTRALIA BEFORE GOING HOME AND SOME NICE CACHES ALSO...TFC
This was a good hide in a great spot. I took some time to enjoy the view here as I had the pier to myself! It appears I was somewhat lucky because as I was leaving the pier a security guard drove onto it.
Thanks for placing a cache here, its a very cool spot (away from the crowds!)
TFTC cheers

Was in the area on a fact finding mission for a nearby puzzle cache and took the opportunity to grab this cache. Not a part of town that I visit very often but it's very scenic and ended being a fairly quick find the end. SL TFTC!
It apiers that we found the decoy magnet cache and the real cache!! Great spot at the end of the pier. No sign of security or fishermen. Thanks kuwtjones
Was slowed down looking for it as there was a fisherman sitting right were I wanted to be. Eventually he went over to check his rod and I was able to make the grab. TFTC
My first find in 2014. I had a nice walk along the water, under the bridge to this cache.
I enjoyed the nice views and found the cache quit quickly.

Found it lying on the floor, so placed it where I thought it could be. It's a nice place, great to see the bridge from a different view. Thanks (from the Czech Republic)
Big DNF I don't think it s there anymore might be wrong but you gonna have to check it bro nice location
This one is a DNF for us today, despite the lack of muggles around and the time spent searching... We investigated each and every corner that fitted with the hint and clues given by the logs. Too bad... but the point of view was worth a visit (was our first time in Sydney during a flight transit between France and NZ).
Was at the theatre on the wharf today to see the very funny Wharf Revue which I highly recommend - an hilarious, fast-paced, satirical revue - and took a few minutes to find this nice cache. Having lost a bit of my "cache-touch" recently it was nice to find this one fairly fast. BTW log is full and needs replacing. TFTC
Fifth and last one of my morning cache tour in the Rocks. A beautiful spot in the morning with a great view on the bridge. Thanks for bringing me here!
Love the name for this cache. Not too difficult to find as the hint makes it pretty straight forward. Completed the signing duties while enjoying the amazing view over the harbour. TFTC!
Yes, it apiered to us
A nice place and it was interesting to see all these dancing classes doing their best.

A quick and easy find due to accurate coordinates and a good description. As there were many muggles I had to wait quite a while after signing the logbook.

Found this one today and my walking tour of the city. I enjoyed seeing all the different spots that most tourists don't go to. Thanks for the cache.
This is the second of two cache that was a return visit day. Like the other one I have not idea how I missed it the first time. Oh well I have end up the smile in the end. TFTC
A busy place as there seemed to be quite a few office Christmas parties going on in the area. We spotted the magnet (we hadn't read the cache page fully) and tied our best to dislodge it. When that didn't work, searched frutehr afield and StreetWalker found the cache. TFTC.
#6752. Seemed to be lots of events on in the area today (Christmas functions, weddings, etc). GZ was quiet close to what looked like an Xmas party, but we managed to search without attracting attention. TFTC.
A stunning day in Sydney! Found on my late afternoon stroll. Co-ords out for me but general search area pretty obvious. TFTC. Please put more in the Sydney CBD !!!!
Wow, that is worthy of a pierage!
Unexpected day's caching in Sydney, but there are worst fates, right?

Wanted a find for this calendar date so combined some city business with a cache find.
I've been to some windy places around the world but nothing like the gale force winds blowing this afternoon as I walked along Hickson Rd and around the wharves. It was almost impossible to walk. I'm pretty fit but I feel like I've used muscles today that I didn't know I had. There were lots of sirens and it turns out a tree just up the road was blown over. The cache location provided some shelter from the wind. I would have liked a photo but I'll have to come back on a nicer day for that.
SL, lucky it didn't blow into the harbour. The micro geocoin listed was not in the cache.

A nice quick find for this one which was very lucky indeed. As we were sitting down signing the log a security guard came by on his rounds. I can confirm that the "decoy magnet" is indeed used by the security guards - he swiped some sort of elecrical device over it to record his visit and quickly moved on. Replaced the cache after his departure. Tftc
Nice hide I a busy place; full of jogging muggles at lunchtime today. Some plush eateries nearby, too upmarket for the likes of us, but it's good to gawp in the windows.

Travelled down to Sydney by train a novel idea for me, Quite pleasant experience, Came down to attend The Geocaching in Space…. From Sydney and hopefully pick up a few other cache when I’m here. Unfortunately the GZ is right where people park their Motorcycles felt just a tad uncomfortable poking around. But cache quickly in a hand and signed and returned with no irate Bikers demanding what I'm up to. Nice cache, Great location the views are to die for. TFTC

the nice Cafe at the pier of the Sydney Theatre Company was very warmly recommended to us by a guy at the information center on our very first day in Sydney. What a nice surprise to find a geocache directly at the destination of our beautiful walk along the sea. After easily finding the cache we had a glass of wine in the Cafe and watched the sunset. What a perfect evening . TFTC

After a little planning, Team Senz and I decided to tackle some of the Sydney caches. We caught the train down from Morisset, and once in Sydney, we began our long walk, to grab as many as we could before our feet gave out. The weather was perfect, the only downside was the smoke haze, which even blocked out the view of Sydney Tower.
We had a few minutes to wait while some bike muggles chatted so we rested our weary feet. Once they left a quick find was made.

Our short Australian holiday is coming to an end and I had to drop off our rental car in William Street.
I then zig-zagged my way through CBD toward the Rocks for some final caches before heading to Hong Kong tomorrow.
The wharfs have been restored quite nicely. Residential apartments, nice cafe's en restaurants on the ground floor and also dance studios find a place in these old buildings. As groups of lunch time runners passed me every other minute or so, I found this nicely hidden cache at the tip of the pier.
TFTC and greetings from the Netherlands.

Found during my stay in NSW. First week we were at Sydney, since I went there to attend a conference. We did quite a lot of walking around this astonishing town. Most of the caches were just small mint boxes or nanos, but that is to be expected in such a big city. I'm especially thankful for all the bigger caches that were easier to find, since my time for the geocaching was somewhat limited.
After the first week we rented a car and went to explore the NSW national parks. Since the Blue Mountains were closed due to bush fires (hope all is well now), we went a 1000km to see Mungo park. We saw a lot of kangaroos, emus, wombats and some koalas in the wild. On our way back to Sydney we visited Canberra and some beautiful parks north of it. We enjoyed the drive-in view that allowed us to see more beauty in shorter time. We spent last day in Royal National Park where we fooled around at a beach and in the waves. We did a short walk on a cost track, which showed as how beautiful the ocean and the coast really are.
Unfortunately, we had to head back to our country ;-( I hope we get to visit NSW again some day.
Thanks for every cache there.

Found it aswel as the stuck down magnetic thingamebob! Taken the trektag to place elsewhere, 1st time to do that and a little exited :0) pencil needs a sharpen as the led has snapped
10pm here and all is quiet. Found quite easily with the hint. We sat and watched the water. Very pleasant. TFTC
That one was spotted right after sunset.
I left a Swiss-Geocoin there for further transportation, I had it on the road for over a month now.

Well talk about stealth needed! A caterer had parked their car at GZ with the door right open... Eeek! We still braved the hunt knowing how suspicious we would look if caught. Thankfully found the cache fairly quickly. Thanks for the views
