Got it while cycling around the lake with GeoDirk and HanorahTLG. What a windy day!

Found it, TFTC!

Found by Mary & David at 1455. Great facilities and more great water views. Found it after a brief search. Our thanks to ALL7.

Day 5 The Entrance.
Today we had to pick up family arriving on the terrain at Tuggerah so we stopped to find a couple of caches on the way.
Thanks for placing this cache ALL7

What a peaceful place to be! Beautiful. I had to use a tiny written to fit in the last 5mm sq room in the log paper, so no more room at all. Thanks ALL7

WOW! Its TEENY TINY! "Log" needs to be replaced. It is so tiny i probably wouldnt bother writing on log, just record find. Need patience to roll log back up to fit inside teeny container, beautiful view to look at whilst doing it tho. Great spot. Thank u

TFTC. When you contemplate and watch the swans, pelicans, ducks, cormorants, terns and gulls for just the right amount of time you are rewarded.

12:04:00 PM. We needed a cache today to help complete our calendar. With the weather the way it was that was proving hard but we saw this one on the GPS so went for it. I parked on the street and walked to GZ with an umbrella only to find I could have driven down there. I made my way through the mud and water and found the cache thank goodness. Log signed and back to the car.The better half wasn't even attempting this one. That was it for us for the wet day. Thanks ALL7 for placing this cache.

Out and about for another day of caching.
This time I have ventured south.
Another quick find here. [^]
Thanks for the cache

Grate spot

Tombi wanted a partner in crime for a big day of caching to help him start clearing caches within his 50km radius. We were also targeting a trackable required to open a cache. After a poor start and spending a lot longer than we anticipated trying to be the first to find on a multi close to home we headed down here. I managed to find 17 with Tombi managing to find a few more as he dropped me home and continued caching.

Sixth for the day. I managed to miss seeing this and Tombi had to recheck my search area to find it. We sat for a while and continued working on the "MONEYTALKS" trackable puzzle as Tombi had a brain wave and we had a good start. TFTC

Out for a big day caching with Orsome86. We meant to do 50 or so, but wasted two hours failing at a first to find near home. Our other main aim was to retrieve a travel bug and find the related cache. At least we did that.
After the entrance we skipped a couple of caches and continued on from here as they were not in my fifty kilometer radius. I must stare at that map too much, because I was right that this was the next one to do. Took a seat and searched. Cache found looking a little out of place...
Thanks for the very small cache (that I could actually find)!

TFTC lovely spot, needs a new log

TFTC ALL7

Tftc great view

Enjoying a day out with my Aunt. After some shopping at Tuggerah we were headed to Mingara for lunch so we stopped on the way so I could find my cache for the day. Was hoping to see some pelicans but no seabirds around today. Cache was a quick and easy find even though I was looking for something a little larger.

Today I spent most of the day assisting my brother to move out of his house.
Around 3pm, I decided I needed food and after the work was completed we headed off to find some.
Took a little break down at the beach, which had very cold water, we then headed back to his house for dinner. After dinner Myself and my nephew went to locate a couple of caches before I needed to head home.

We both missed this one at first check. Then upon closer look had CIH.

26/09/15. 7:24 AM. Cache #3033. Streak day #461.
1st of 9 finds this morning - Berkeley Vale, Tumbi Umbi & Killarney Vale.

I started off my cache trip around the bottom of Tuggerah Lake with an easy find. But then hit a snag - getting the log out. I need to get back into the habit of carrying a needle around in my wallet again. Eventually found a tool to get it out, signed and replaced. On to "Tommy 1". TFTC.

Came up from the Big Smoke for a day on the Central Coast.
Arrived early so I could collect some caches before our get together. Drove down a little lane and parked right next to GZ. Wow the weathers awful up here, it was a sunny day when I left Sydney. Sat in the car for a while contemplating the view I couldn't really see because of the rain. It didn't seem to worry the pelicans as 10 gathered in front of me.
Made a quick dash and search and fortunately soon had CIH. Returned to vehicle to do the signing then replaced the cache. Not a muggle in sight, more birds gathering though. Visitors here must feed them!
TFTC ALL7 - This would be a lovely spot on a sunny day and maybe sometime I'll do the walk.

Great spot first one like this I've found!!

Always nice by the lake to find a cache.TFTC

Sneaky hide. Lovely view across the lake.

Nice quick find, beautiful spot. Tftc

Found with some newbies first micro. Tdtc. Sl

Only a 350m from work today! Great to finaly nab this one, as its always been in the peripherals. Haven't seem this varient of this sort of container before. TFTC!!

Out and about collecting up a few in found caches this afternoon, this being one lone cache waiting for me to find it..... I didn't really want to take a seat as it was wet, but Opa-Shrek helped me out when I missed it on my first once over...and no wonder I needed help because I was expecting something a wee bit bigger. I delighted in the Pelicans here more than the cache, and the silly seagulls who all flew in to see if we had any chips. We didn't, but they asked anyway
Thanks for the find ALL7... I think I have just one more to find in this series now

What a great view and heaps of different birds on water...
wow cute tiny than other,..
sign in as no trouble..
Thanks

Thanks for the upgrade Sis / Mad Mum. Yes it took an age for those muggles to move ! TFTC

Found this with some young relatives on a visit to the Central Coast over Easter. A great spot! Unfortunately the lake views and pelicans were being admired at gz by a couple of muggles who looked like they would never move! We wandered up to read the interpretive signs for a while and moved off again to wait them out. After the rains, the lake level was pretty high and stretches of the nearby jetties were underwater. The muggles finally moved off and the young cousins swooped in for an easy find. Thank you.

Sweeping off the entrance long jetty and chittaway bay series here.

9166 + 1025 = 10191. Heading home with ACBC66 we made a quick stop and find...

Heading home after New Years we stopped to visit some friends nearby and grabbed this cache as well - how convenient ! Great views from here - lots of Pelicans ! Quick find at GZ.

Thanks ALL7 !!

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

This series is now complete.
I met a muggle and explained about geocaching. Maybe a new player??? TNLNSL TFTC

It was good to find this cache at last. It was a surprisingly quick find. TFTC, ALL7.

Wrigleys need a commission !

I had to go to Westfield for the geo-wife this morning so took the opportunity to convert some greens I hadn't got to in the area into smilies. The last time I tried for this one, I had to let it go by as a lady with a young child were in occupation of the area I needed to search. This time, nobody was in sight so a quick find was made. Thanks ALL7, I enjoyed lingering here for a few minutes after logging duties were done.

quickly found whilst riding the bike track with friends from Wollongong.

First cache in an awesome day. TFTC

It was a little easy but there
we're muggles so we had to
pretend to tie up our shoe
lace.

Nice easy find.

Lovely spot

Easy find due to hints. Thanks!! Beautiful spot

A nice quick find using the hint. Could sit here all day and just look at the pelicans and other birds on the water TFTC

An unbelievable amount of muggles were around this one, so I went for a bit of a walk down the path until they all left! Beautiful view. TFTC

I took the day off to spend some time with the kids, and we found a few spots in the Wyong area to entertain us. We had intended to play putt putt at Mingara, and were very disappointed to find the course gone (hope it does come back as promised on the website). After a quick ice-cream at Uncle Ronald's the geotoddler wanted to play on the beach, so I aimed at this cache as it seemed to have a healthy mix of water and playground, however when we got there the kids were a bit put off by the pelicans and the general state of the water. There were a couple of muggles right at GZ, so it was a bit of a challenge to retrieve the container, but luckily there was an opportunity to bring myself down to the level of the nearly-7 year old! TNLNSL, TFTC

Beautiful day for a lake stroll. TFTC

Enjoyed wander around this area, Accompany with Heather - found and signed the log. Thanks ALL7.

Found it with the aid of Trent and now we understand the codes better and will improve our technique.

Found, TFTC

It was nice and peaceful here at 6.45am, lots of birds out on the lake, precious few muggles about. A quick find, thanks ALL7.

Forgot to log this one. Found it in the obvious spot and was where my hand first touched. If only they were all that easy! Can't believe it has taken me so long between doing the first 7 and the final one of this series.

TFTC cheers

Quick find TFTC

After my last DNF I had some luck this time with a little help from the CO. Thanks for this one only 7 of the series to go.

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

found easily on a lovely sunny day while taking our geodaughters for a bike ride along the track.Thanks ALL7 TNLN SL

Sat down, signed log. TFTC.

I was in the area to pick up my grandson in the area. I found the velcro strip and looked in some other possible locations. I will continue my search. Entered in iPad near the cache site. TFTC anyway.

Quick find with muggle husband, tftc

Super quick find on the way over to drop off some TB's and coins for their flight to England.

Quick find at a beautiful spot!

In the obvious place really. Well guarded by some arachnid soldiers. TFTC

Had to wait for a lady to move from directly from the spot, she was texting someone, then back on her bike (thank goodness). Nice view of pelicans.

The Lake from another angle...
Easy find. Replaced Log bag for a slightly smaller one to make easer to extract.

Catching up on logging after a long break. Been a while so I cannot remember seeing any issues with the cache . TFTC ALL7

Whilst Master Lincoln was sleeping we decided to grab some drive by caches. Miss E (3) found this one by herself. TFTC....eatmorchikin & Stigglepot, Brisbane

found straight away

Found today on a Father's Day cycle with my son. I let my son find this one, and he quickly did. Signed log and replaced. Lots of birdlife around here today. Thanks for the caches ALL7!

Lovely spot by the lake, plenty of Pelicans and other water birds about. Nice views across the lake. Quickly located the cache while checking the photos I took, thanks.

A muggle was sitting in his car nearby to gz but he was engrossed in a phone conversation. I was able to take a seat and admire the view with my brother and because of the great hint, reach unnoticed to grab the cache to record our visit. Thanks ALL7

Nice quick find. Wish the sign hadn't been vandalised as I will be doing that kind of work soon and the info is useful. Tftc

Rats! Forgot the pen.
Enjoy the view and rehab works
Nice easy one

[8d] I found it

8, 7, 6, 5, We did this series backwards. From Chittaway to The Entrance. The family are from live north of here, and did not know of this cycleways existence. What a great asset for this area. A great way to spend a Sunday, an early morning shift, then caching with the Fam, Fish & Chips for lunch along the route. Thanks All7 for the trail.

Was a good spot

Beautiful spot, great view

Cache were missing so replace new cache... Ready to go....

Checking soon.. thanks...

Found the Velcro but nothing was attached. Beautiful spot though!!

thought I would find this one but didn't

I will check up this week or next week.. im busy atm.... Thank let me know ..cheers

[?] We didn't find this cache but did locate the white velcro strip where we believed that the cache should have been. Is it still there?

No luck, found the velcro, but no cache, so, beats me how richardcranium found it, but, of course, his name was not in any of the logs we saw later in the day but he was logging online....

TFTC

GeoWife01 and I took a visit to the Central Coast today, started at Chittaway Bay and progressed all the way around the lake to The Entrance. We had a most interesting and enjoyable morning collecting 14 finds, 3 DNF and 1 "thought we would check anyway".

Nice and easy find, GeoWife01 took some very nice pictures of the local bird life.

Tks ... ALL7 ... GazMag

A nice quick find after a busy day at work. It was nice to sit and relax for a moment while I waited for the muggle in the car to leave. Thanks ALL7.

Found with Liz and Bruce on what was uhite a good day for caching. A nice easy find as the Pelicans watched. I don't think that they will tell.

This was the last of quite a few ALL7 caches that we found today, and while I have used a number of generic logs, all of the caches were indeed appreciated.
