Out today to grab a couple of caches, I worked out the coordinates for good and set off, there were a few muggles at gz but they didn’t notice me while I retrieved the cache, signed the log, tftc
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 after a bit of a look around cache was soon in hand.

The place was teeming with muggles but nobody saw a thing while we signed the log.
Came through with the team of phlphotos, alnic39 and JJCC after finding 1000 Young. This one was on the solved list of phlphotos, had a bit of search at GZ for the cache as even with the four of us we couldn't work out the hint. In the end, the splatter search technique worked and we came away with the goods. With the cache in hand we signed the log and returned as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for the mystery cache Hoojar, Chip & Ding.
The following TBs came through for the mileage: Bob geoMinion, Dave geoMinion, Evil geoMinion, Jerry geoMinion, Larry geoMinion, Mary Hyde's Treasure, Stuart geoMinion, teamMerlin's 7 Deadly Ducks Tag (Lust), Vanlith The Youngling, Lord Frederik von Kürbiskopf.

#1937 solved a long time ago parked nearby with alnic39, teamMerlin and Splitty Miller JJCC & took the long way around to GZ, didn't completely understand the hint tried a couple of spots until we stuck our head under then we saw the cache, grabbed it.
We all signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for the puzzle Hoojar, Chip & Ding

Found on the 22nd of May while travelling via the coastal road towards Wollongong.
Last one for today, TFTC!

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 the Scout Jamboree cache trail along Appin Road & Baden Powell Drive, which we plan to do in reverse order and thus finish at Cataract Dam. This was our 31st find of the day, and 41st find of the holiday.
After finding all of the Scout Jamboree caches, and stopping off for a couple of en-route Traditionals, we thought we were done with caching for the day. But we stopped off at Coles to grab some supplies and geomum noticed this Mystery cache nearby. She had a look at it and came up with a quick solution, so we all headed off on foot for "one last cache", leaving the geomobile parked in the Coles carpark.
Arrived at GZ and made a nice quick find, thanks no doubt to the very helpful hint. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. Thanks Hoojar, Chip & Ding for the puzzle & cache, our last cache for the day.

Didn't find it but I'm afraid there is quite alot of litter around the area, tried to get rid of some, I could have easily just missed it. I will attempt this one again another day.
Did a visit to the gong from Sydney on the way home found a few caches. Found with JordsAU. Cheers for the cache
28/12/2016 Found with morry9. Solved this one a while ago and had it on my list to get around to. Had the opportunity today while visiting The Gong for some other hides. Good to finally tick this one off the list. Thanks For The Cache Hoojar, Chip & Ding.
Found while killing time waiting for daughter at cadet function. Great night to be caching. Thanks Hoojar for the cache.
Quick find today after dropping of scouts off up the road all good at the cache TFTC
Second time lucky for us today...tried the 'hard way' first time around, much easier using the actual coordinates! TFTC!!!
Finally!!! My very first mystery solved!! Tftc!!! Attempted a few times but second guessed myself. Happy days!!
Can CO check if cache is still there?? Went to where we suspect it was... possibly mia. Thanks
The whole WooTownCrew had a search for this cache this afternoon however unfortunately we could not find it. There was some evidence of something that has been 'misplaced' at what we thought was the obvious GZ, but we could have been mistaken.
Did not find it but my phone died when I got there. Will try again another day and see if I have better luck.
Geo-bro Lance91 worked out the coordinates and i found with the helpful hint.. apparently lance91 didn't even need the hint.
Had to boost my sister's confidence in caching and let her make the find

Found little lady bug on a peg, has "aries 44" on the back. Is this a travel bug?
After a stinging nettle disaster at a previous cache today this was a delight - no-one on the courts, nice easy stroll and find. TFTC Hoojar
Only one game in progress in the tennis courts and not near the cache, making for an easy find. TFTC Hoojar.
Wazza9 solved the puzzle before leaving, located the cache on the way to the Pie Day event. TFTC
wazza9 and Nana Nel told me about this puzzle cache at the ICC Pi event today. wazza9 gave me a nudge in the right direction, so on the way home I detoured and came up lucky. TN Left a small peg, SL and visited a TB. TFTC Hoojar.
TFTC,
Looking for an unknown cache that would give us the second souvenir for today and located this one.
It was on our way to the Pie Event down south so thought it was worth a try. Found the solution and after looking at Google Earth, believed our solution to be correct. Soon had CIH once we were at GZ and sompleted the requirements. Replaced container and were pleased to be able to thank the CO in person at the event for providing us with this cache.
Visited trackables gathering for a trip to the Mega in Stanthorpe.

Scary derelict approached my car, rested one arm on the passenger door and started talking to me about my car and where I live. Started sussing my car out because his brother also has a Honda Civic.
Started talking to me about his brothers "supped up" car.
Asking me where I live, because I might know his brother.
Put his hand through my semi-opened window and touched the car head-rest, talking about interiors.
The closest I've been (or felt to have been) robbed, mugged, unsafe.
There was no chance in heck that I was going to open/leave my car.

Heaps of young sports muggles about, but luckily the cache was in a spot away from their view. Thanks.
A quick find by the boys after capturing the near by motel mum zee for mum. Was wondering how this one was going to go with tennis in play but all was good no notice was taken of the boys.

Down in the Illawarra for NYE with geofamily, was lucky to get a couple of hours away from the kids early in the morning to find a few geocaches. Thankfully a relatively quick find on a quiet morning. SL TFTC!
I came past here the other day, then realised I had only corrected the S coords and not the E. With a little time to spare this morning, I nipped back for a second attempt, with all the numbers I needed to find the right GZ... It was then I had an epiphany and worked out I never really had to leave the first time as everything I needed was in the description... Genius Gunnie, pure genius...
On arrival, I heard someone nearby so kept a low profile. With a little contortion I had the cache secured and extracted the log for business. A quick scribble, my name was added and I tucked things away as quick as they came out. All back in place, I scurried away on tip toes so the locals would not hear me...
Glad I didn't leave the gong without this one. It's been a few years since my last visit and could be a while before I get back here.
Cheers Hoojar.

A bit of Saturday arvo caching, quite pleasant day considering it was suppose to rain. Quick find for us. TFTC
Didn't really feel like caching today, especially after a long wet night, but forced myself anyway as I had to be in Wollongong for shopping as well. Probably lucky as there was nobody playing due to the weather today!

Thought I'd grab a cache in the northern suburbs today as I had a bit more time to spare and they probably wouldn't be as water logged as the ones in the southern suburbs.
Coming up with a likely spot it was confirmed when I seen the tennis courts and even more so when I had the cache in hand.
Thanks for day 108.

This cache ended up being a bit away from the actual hall in the end but we got there. Even on Saturday morning with the tennis GZ itself was quiet. TFTC!
Been to this scout hall a few times in scouts and rovers never new how it got its name now I do.
Well what can a say, once a korrahill rover, always a korrahill rover and a super happy one at that, grabbing this ftf.. after being a korrahill verturer and then rover, i was very excited to see this one finally pop up, but knowing there was another cache near by, i wondered where hoojar would place this one.. lucky i came out early, whilst the rooster was still crowing, as this one is going to be swarmed with muggles later today tftc.. off to celebrate another ftf..
