This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).
I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.
Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache.

Première en Australie depuis longtemps avec la famille, Lulu, Micheal and Carole
Didn't have time to do the full trial but managed to get this one close to the road. TFTC.
TFTC! Such a nice view and I'm glad finally I can mark my spot with a found in Nelson Bay. 
My plan for the day was to get out of Sydney and to try to spot a kangaroo. The Kangaroo-spotting did not go well, but i got to see Nelson Bay. AND to find a few Caches tftc.

A lovely weekend away in Shoal Bay
There’s no better way to explore than stretching the legs to go caching.
Our last one of them series as we didn’t do them completely in order.
Now to sit down and work out if our DNF will stop us working out the final

Away for work And had a big week of travel starting in Melbourne, up to Townsville, back to Brisbane and Newcastle today and a flight back to Mel this evening. With all the racing around and eating crap food I felt like Mr Blobby!
Anyway my visits for the day were done and I had a couple of hours to kill, looked on that map and saw the series at Nelson Bay. I have fond memories of this place from 15 years ago when I arrived as a backpacker. Arrived at my starting point, checked the map and gave my self a max of 90min before racing back to the airport. Off I ran and the series was perfect, guessing I did around about 7km and maybe 20 somethink finds. Still need to have a count. A number of dnf’s too but with a time restriction there was. No time to play about.
The perfect series for a run and I’m feeling better now. Thanks for the fun!

Lacey liked the doll. We have been coming up to shoal bay for around 45 years. Awesome spot
Completed this series with Beary_Unicorns early Sunday morning. Tried to get it all done before the temperature became too hot, but no luck. Visited trackables, tftc.
Did a fair chunk of this powertrail 2 years ago but skipped this one due to muggle activity. Picked it up today with a nice quick find. TFTC
A quick easy find, will now start to try and do the whole series. Didn't bring a pen to log.

The next stop in our vacation in Australia with kimallus was Newcastle and its surroundings during the weekend. We travelled together with -minn and whafe for an extended weekend. We spent the Saturday afternoon in Nelson bay, with some SUP and hiking to the hill (and a DNF there). Spectacular views though. Coming down from the hill we needed at least one cache in Nelson bay area and it happened to be this one. Accurate coordinates and helpful hint made this very quick and easy. Thanks for the cache.
A nice day at the bay! First some paddle boarding with whafe and jyrkios (the wind eventually picked up too much) and then climbing up Mount Tomaree for the views. As stunning as usual! On our way back to the car we had to pick up at least one cache. While the rest of us were looking at a stranded sailing catamaran at the beach, jyrkios revealed the container. TFTC!

Nice find and a very quick one too. Dislodged a small hiding lizard in the process.
Suspect the public don't go picking up random things like this too often.
Thanks for the cache!

A quick find in a good location is always a good way to start the day. Thanks subi-two.
All logsheets were quite damp. We added a new sheet in a small snaplock bag. TFTC
We are visiting ChocolicTrekkers and are having a day caching by ourselves, starting this trail at number 26 because a car park was found here. A beautiful spot, no wonder it's hard to find a vacant spot. TFTC
Overshot at first and found another rock under another tree that was covering an ant nest. Whoops! Couldn’t sign as didn’t have a pen, so attached a photo as proof of find.
