Waiting for darkness to go light looking with MizMaz, we decided to kill some time and grab a few smiles for the current souvenir.
Arrived at GZ and cache was soon in hand.

Luckily my daughter found it as I’m not a pink Floyd fan so no idea what that meant ha ha ha
#2176 pulled over near here a nice little walking track around this park with two women trying to get a little dog to do tricks for treats nearby. I was doing the Pink Floyd thing & the magician thing "watch me pull a rock out of .... Rock!!! That's not a cache." Well eventually realised that one of the things I pulled out was actually the cache.
With cache in hand we signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for bringing me to the area and thanks for placing the cache Hoojar, Chip & Ding. Not sure if there was meant to be a container here

**The Cache**
What? think like the Pink Floyd song ???? "Brain Damage?" "Another brick in the Wall?" or maybe even "Run like hell?" "Careful with that Axe?"
Interesting hide. I didn't get the clue at first because I don't really listen to music much but after a while duh, duh, got it.
Rubbish and what looks like burnt stuff at GZ. SL and returned cache to its hide'y hole. OCW *Little Kitten* and *DustyJapserJet*.
7 = 7 0 0 [8)] not attempted.

Went for a little caching run on a Sunday before I start work again. Some were sneaky, some not so sneaky. Easy find, plenty of parents and kiddies on bikes
Catching up with old finds, this one is from 22 May... found while trying to clean up the large amount of unfound caches south of Stanwell Parks. TFTC!
Nice easy find. We took the trackable and left a deck of cards. We replaced the bag with something more water tight. Bring a pen.
We have travelled down from Sydney’s Northern Beaches to the Wollongong area for the April school holidays, camping in our Jayco Swan Outback camper trailer at the Corrimal Beach Tourist Park. Today we were off to do some shopping in the Wollongong CBD, and then visit the Wollongong Harbour precinct, and collecting caches along the way. This was our 9th find of the day, and 92nd find of the holiday.
After a busy day of shopping & caching around the Wollongong CBD & Harbourfront we were now on our way back to camp, but stopped off at this one as we were passing. Well we found the log in a plastic bag, but no other container, so not sure if that is the way it's suppose to be. Anyway we signed the log sheet and then replaced as found. TNLN. TFTC Hoojar, Chip & Ding.

Nice easy spot if you decipher the clue. Great one for the kids. TFTC. Needs a fresh log.
Off we go for another geomission! fitzy_1965, AngelG27 and I were off in the geomover to descend on the Illawarra region to knock off the Helensburgh puzzle series and whatever others we could nab along the way. Sunny spring weather and lots of laughs made for a fun weekend of caching!
I was singing a certain Pink Floyd song when I made the find for us here [:O)]
Thanks for the hide, Hoojar, Chip & Ding

14578. Found during Day 2 of a great weekend caching down in the Helensburgh / Wollongong region with specimenX and AngelG27.
A long planned weekend was finally here. Yesterday we finished off the Scouts and Helensburgh puzzle series plus a bunch of other caches. Today we generally moved south during the day grabbing some quality caches along the way. This was the next find for the day. The ladies made short work of this one - Quick find at GZ. Signed the log, replaced the cache, and we were on our way to the next one.
Thanks to all the CO's for their caches - very much appreciated !!

Cache 2902 on 3/9/17
Fitzy_1965, SpecimenX and I headed out on a long planned geomission to Helensburgh and Wollongong to grab a stack of solved puzzles and as-yet-uncollected traditionals. We headed up the highway from the ACT to Appin, then down the hill to Helensburgh and then made our way south. We have around 160 caches on the list, but managed to grab 90 odd yesterday. Looking to grab stacks of trads today on our second day of the mission. Unless otherwise indicated, caches were found quickly and in good order. Thanks to my geo partners in crime for a fun weekend
Thanks Hoojar for the cache!

Found a while back but a check of old logs see's it missing from my list (even more curious because I would have to log it to pick up the geocoin...).

Tftc brings back memories from when I use to play in this park as a kid every time I was at my auntie's
Easy find made a bit trickier by a highly protective magpie with a nest, presumably full of chicks, in a nearby gum tree.
Using research for our upcoming weddings as a starting point, I suggested an EarthCache centred trip as llama_boy had never attempted one. We dispensed with the initial duty, and began our trip proper with this simple cache. Our searching senses weren't quite tuned in yet so we missed the cache and read the hint, which suggested something more complicated. Eventually the container emerged and the day was off to a great start.
What a better way to spend a lovely Autumn Saturday than geocaching with a good mate. We were in the Wollongong area so this cache was the first hit for the day. I originally looked in the obvious spot, but it was rassilon256's keen eyes that found in in the same location. TFTC!
