TFTC,
And another favorite. I will leave it up to nana nel to add the photo.
Heading out to Litchfield and picking up a few more caches as we leave Darwin yet again.
We are into week 5 of our 7 week plus Outback adventure and starting our way towards the Savanna Way at Mataranka from where we head East.
Visited a group of trackables enjoying the experience.

Lush place! Nice idea for the cache box. TFTC!
 
25-Jul-13
Found on our Adelaide to Top End holiday. We camped at the Florence Falls campground for a couple of nights and I headed out early after breakfast to grab the caches nearby. This is a great walk through here which I had already done the evening before but certainly did not mind travelling that way again. Great cache container as always, I was just glad it was too early for any muggles.
 
23-Jul-13
Day trip To Litchfield National Park.
Found this lovely picnic basket but it was a little too early for lunch so have had to take a rain check.
Another favourite point given for another TiedyeSmileys cache.

great spot for lunch! tftc
 
12-Jul-13
Found it after a couple off amazing swims at Florence Falls and Buley.
 
12-Jul-13
I found this it was really good but when we where putting it back some muggles started to play some kind of game 10 m away from us. So we tried to pretend we were reading with our backs to the cache.

Easy find. Left coin for someone else to navigate with.
 
04-Jul-13
Has anyone mysteriously gone missing here ? [:o]

As the muggle hoards trudged by a few metres below me I poked around for a cache.
That would be one right there Smile
Dressed in my best anti-muggle attire, an en-semble of grey shorts and black shirt topped with a brown, wide brimmed hat, I was all but invisible as the hoardes passed by just a few metres below.
The picinicers on the other side of the creek couldn't hear me over the noise of the running stream Big Grin
The stage was set for the great cache heist Razz

And after 10 minutes or so I had rehidden the cache and restacked the rocks Smile
Amazing what you can get away with in full view !!
If only they had looked up !! Razz

A great cache in a great location, near some fabulous outdoor activities. What more could a cacher want? I could get used to caching in this part of the world! Thanks TiedyeSmileys. We enjoyed the swim at nearby Florence Falls. I laughed that from above it looked like there were two people in the water... Of course, when we got to the bottom we found the hoards hiding in the trees (and I don't just mean the bats)!!

We really enjoyed the walk!
 
14-Jun-13
Found at 17:44 with Olga.
Out of time for a swim, but checked the lookout, and this beautiful section of the creek.
Thanks

Had a fantastic day in Litchfield, swam at the Buley waterhole first and then carried on for a picnic by the creek before walking in to the Florence Falls, on the walk I remembered that I had forgotten to search for the geocache that was nearby our picnic spot, but luckily I was able to find it on the way out. I must have been having brain fade in the heat because I ended up leaving my gpsr right by the cahce but luckily I realised that I didnt have it with me before I drove off so was soon able to retrieve it. TFTC

People enjoying a swim nearby but I managed to retrieve the cache and log the find. Paddled my feet in the water while sitting on the nearby bridge before farwelling this beautiful area. Thanks for the cache.
 
15-Apr-13
A great cache in a beautiful location, found after enjoying a swim in the pool at the bottom of the falls. Fabulous! TFTC
 
22-Dec-12
Quick find while the non-caching members of the family set up the picnic. A beautiful spot to sit and contemplate while having a bite to eat. Thanks for the cache.

Nice cache cool idea TFTC TiedyeSmileys
 
25-Nov-12
We found this amazing cache during our one mounth visit of Australia. We spent in Litchfield two perfect days with swimming, caching and traveling around. Many thanks for nice adventure during founding this cache. I think taht It was The best one what we found in Australia.
 
03-Nov-12
In Litchfield Park with the family for the weekend to do some caching so we had to cross this one of the list. Stinking hot day as well, but it was great to find a few caches before a swim at Wangi. The creek was a great place for lunch, much cooler than the surrounding area. T4TC.

Found this Cache on our Tour to Perth. TFTC and Greetings from Switzerland.

Nice cache. Made me hungry...
 
08-Sep-12
Found on the way to the falls. TFTC.
 
Busy walk! Cache is fine. TFTC
 
27-Aug-12
The cache is very close to the track! So much so that the inevitable happened and I was sprung the moment that I retrieved it. The woman wanted to know what I was setting so I explained geocaching to her. I don't think that we have a convert!.
 
22-Aug-12
Very cool cache... if only the food was real! Took Round the clock GC.
 
20-Aug-12
Very nice picnic-box - I was getting hungry... Wink
 
20-Aug-12
Great little stream running through here. Had a nice picnic lunch by the stream before finding the cache. Lots of muggles to avoid. Thanks
 
17-Aug-12
This was our 1st cache in our caching run today - and we found it at around 11:14.
(So this is our 4638th total find.)

Wow, yet another really interesting cache. It's really nice to discover that the theme of each cache matches the name.

Took: Nothing
Left: Charm necklace
We dropped a trackable into the cache.
Thanks TiedyeSmileys for the hunt today.
 
14-Aug-12
Nearly everyone else seemed to choose the short way to the pool, so we were all alone here to enjoy the scenery and search for the hide, actually not too difficult in this case. Thanks for luring us onto the long walk with the caches, otherwise we might have followed the masses Wink
 
14-Aug-12
And another great cache, not just because of the great nature scenery along the path that led us here (compare Morinic's log entry). The container is very well prepared and clean, and provides a lot of room for trackables - unfortunately there was none in when we were there. The cute suprises inside of the container fitted very well with the cache title and made me smile Smile. This should make a great find for a family with children too.

#1745 Picked up during a walk around the falls. Interesting contents! T4T$

Thanks for bringing me to this place and the great cache. Some passing Muggles called out "are you Geocaching" as they'd recently holidayed with caching friends. They too were impressed with the cache container
