What a long day I had today!!!I hitchhiked from Omarama to Christchurch, New Zealand and then flew to Sydney, took the train to Kiama and then was picked up by a bloke going to Berry. Factoring in the time difference I've been up about 21 hours today and I pitched my tent in this lovely park as the frogs were singing. Quick find here. TFTC
Testing out the new bike rack with a ride around Berry. Stop #2 was a success. Been eyeing this one for a while. Nice and easy.Tftc
Quick and very nice find after spending a night here! Always great to have a cache when you wake up
Quick find by nianiu, and Sean who have joined us for the night on kimmy+co road trip up the coast
Quick find by nianiu, and BagginsCash who have joined us for the night with tash2494 road trip up the coast
While out going with Mt geo daughter danaemaree in the rain with time of from work we decided to have a go ....For a few more smiley's Tftc
Found today with my GeoKids funny_guy and TillyG. Thanks for maintaining this cache! Log is full however we found some space out of sync.
It was only one whole day in Sydney for us; we landed two days ago in the afternoon, and walked from morning till night yesterday exploring the metropolis. After a nice evening and some rest, we woke up today with the intention to start our drive down south. Little did we know that our plans would get quite derailed with a flat tire just as we left Sydney. We had visited Sydneys oldest stash and then finally got on the highway, and as we were driving down the coast just two hours after we picked up our rental vehicle, a strange sound made me pull over. One of our tires was *completely* flat, with no visible puncture. Well, this was **not** the start of our road trip we wanted, or needed. Damn. I pulled over when I could and that just so happened to be near this stash. Finding out we had a flat tire didnt make either of us very happy. After that, we tried to figure out what to do, but the rental company didnt help us whatsoever. I swapped the tire (very happy we had a spare in the trunk), and adapted our plans as we could with the unfortunate circumstances.We slowly continued down the coast, though it was soon clear we would be cutting our drive a lot shorter. Being the evening on a Sunday in Australia meant there was no options for external help. But as Laura was searching for the nearest service center with an available hotel, we stopped by this stash, being an easy stop for us. The eighth and final stop of the day, with the hotel in sight. When we opened up the stash, which we found quickly, we got our star in to the logbook, finding the original logbook with logs from nearly a decade ago, which was a really nice thing to see inside. The stash is in good condition; I drafted this log at 6:36 pm, making this our 7143rd overall find. Thank you snorris for placing and maintaining your Mark Radium Park stash; we were glad to visit it and spice up our Sunday while down under in ????Australia for our spring break, visiting from slightly-distant ????Myanmar! We snapped a photo and returned the stash as we found it, and appreciate the opportunity for a find and visiting another new location. For my own personal statistics; this is the sixty-third of 112 geocaches we visited down under while on spring break, excluding the 56 adventure lab caches we visited and 28 Waymarks visited. It was quite a long and exciting day for us, as we walked 21.17km throughout the city while visiting twenty-five stashes just this one day.
I didnt find it. My wife found it. Yay! Check out on Spotify the song bunny bunny bunny. Who would have thought that there were Easter songs? Happy Easter.
Great place for a cache! Left a trackable and some swaps. Thanks for the smiley
Driving slowly down the coast with our campervan. Stayed here for the night and after a brekkie, we found this cache. TFTC
Couple of Finnish vanlifers traveling around this beautiful coast of Australia with Matilda the campervan. Stopping here and there to enjoy life without any plans.Mntti1 and I started our travels couple of weeks ago. After getting everyting set up and visiting some friends, we began making our way south from Sydney. Stopped here for a rest and on the morning logged the cache also. Thanks for the cache!
Made a quick find on this one. Fortunately, there were not too many people around at the time. I walked towards GZ and saw it almost immediately in the most obvious spot. TFTC
GPS was all over the place but found in the end. Another LGA done.
Thanks for the Traditional Cache snorris, paulyman

Started the day in Canberra today driving through to Batemans bay and then up to Wollongong for the night stop over. 12 hours on the road and a bunch of Geocaches found. Thanks to the COs for placing for mine and alls enjoyment. Wow it gets dark early over here!
Pulled over for a rest stop on my journey to Sydney from Narooma
The cache is in great condition and easy to find even if the GPS struggles with the trees
I'm giving this a favourite point for the location, the toilets are beautifully painted with horse stables and there are swings too
Tftc!

Lovely walk over to here from the centre of town as the sun began to set.
GPS coords a little off but a quick easy find regardless.
Happy to report that the cache is in good condition and the logbook nice and dry.

This trip is the...
RUTHERGLEN MEGA TRIP
2023
Off to party with the Victorians over Easter and giving the new wheels a bit of a test run as a geocaching adventure mobile.
Wandering down there stopping for oldies, challenges, LGAs, points etc.
This cache-
which challenge/ why?
LGA Challenges
Random pick
A few days behind schedule so it's only a few quick stops now and then cut across to the Hume highway.
It was peak hour at the playground so didn't attempt that one. What an amazing asset for the community!
This place was much quieter so stopped in here for a quick pit stop and find. Those horses painted on the toilets looked lifelike from where I parked.

Coordinates a little off but looked in the obvious place and came up with a quick find. TFTC.
Well, my side kick Shotgun found it my - 100th find TFC entering through the drive way was tricky with my Subi , but lucky no muggles , so I could side way over the dibbets
Quick easy find got the fright of my life as a huge spider was on the cache as I pulled it out fell off my hand thank goodness TFTC
But why are the bins all locked... Busy in Berry so kept going. Busy in the park too.
Tftc Paul and Lou we visited with TB NASA that we found at Rylestone NSW. Not big enough to drop NASA in.
TFTC. Log book full. Have put a small note book in there. All in good condition.
Quick expedition to Berry via Mittagong, Bowral, Robertson and Jambaroo. Did a quick run to the 3 obvious spots and found it in the last spot. TFTC
Most times we just bypass Sydney via the M7 & M2 so haven't had the chance. However this time we thought we would try to grab a few new LGAs taking the East Coast home. Unfortunately the standard (nee - terrible) Sydney weather, stopped that happening. Yes I can bag Sydney weather, I lived here for 5 years.
Should have went with my geo-senses, not GPSr with this one. After searching all the places it pointed to, I put it away and walked to where I would hide it and found the geocache.
Thanks for the cache Snorris and Pauly Man

PS. Took the trackable

I was coming home from a Trig-finding day in Jervis Bay and saw that Berry had an adventure lab. Got that one done and had time for a few more. TFTC
Found after a nice morning tea with the WEEO at Broughton (now called Berry). TFTC

Staying a few days in Berry with the family. Of course wherever we went, I had the geocaching app open to spot nearby caches.
What a fun painting on the toilet block. I loved it.
The cache was found quickly and in good condition.

OCW frazeydaze on the way to Ulladulla for the weekend. After completing the nearby Adventure Lab there was time to visit a few other caches in the area. Frazeydaze quickly had this prize in her hands. TFTC shortish, paulyman
On our way to Ulladulla and ventured off the highway for a bit off a look around town.
Not very many places to hide a cache here. Then it was spotted. Very snug indeed.

Watch for ants they had made a nest on the top of the lid. The rest was Ok TFTC.
Mother’s Day trip to Berry. Great opportunity to grab a cache. Easy find, clever hide. TFTC
Lots of muggles around. This must one of the busiest toilet blocks in the area! Finally got a windows and made a quick find. Thanks
On a nice walk around the township, found a few caches on the way. Snug hide. TFTC
Quick find today while making a pit stop at the park to enjoy the duck pond and eat some yummy donuts while on a family Sunday drive exploring the Berry area.
While the geokiddies munched their donuts and enjoyed a milkshake a quick check of the app showed a cache nearby! It also has a 'Wonder" I need to collect, so bonus.... Geoboy and I wandered over to GZ and made a quick find in a clever spot. A decent size cache for this location, nice!
Signed the dry log and dropped some swag before returning as found. All in good order here.
Thanks for the cache snorris and paulyman!

Nice park. We stopped here for a coffee in our caravan while we waited for the 1pm bell to ring to enter the show ground.

We are spending the weekend at Berry Showground enroute to a week's holiday at Narooma so while here, I made sure to grab a few caches I hadn't found on my previous visit to this part of the world.
No problems making the find even though my GPS was suggesting I look at a nearby tree. Thanks for the hide snorris and paulyman.

Found with a couple of grandkids in tow. I am sure I logged this one a few years ago as I remembered where it was, but cannot find the log entry.

Easy find by Mr 6 after a few minutes. Logbook at capacity. Thank you for the cache.
Looking around a tree then saw it. Caching and a sweet treat, a great day! TFTC!
TFTC. Great spot good hide . Obvious spot . Lots muggers around but had to pick my time . Note it’s not near the horses
Nicely placed cache in what appears to be a very busy park and toilet stop off before entering the highway to Nowra. Waited for my opportunity to make the find without being noticed. Logged and returned. TFTC
This is a rather strange park and nice to visit and wonder what it is all about. The cache was not too hard to find but still required a bit of searching.
Thanks paulyman.
Thanks paulyman.
What a lovely park, well away from Berry’s new mayhem of a ‘quaint’ little town.
