The geocaching plan for Taurus Six and I today was to clear up some straggler and some new geocaches in the Busselton area . We decided to head down that way for a nice walk along the waterfront as well as have a lovely brunch as well. It actually felt a little cooler today for the first time in a very long time perfect weather for geocaching as morning turned into afternoon it did get warmer though . The road works made collecting a few of the geocaches harder than it otherwise would have been . We did end up with several dnfs mainly due to muggles . All in all though it is good to have a few more yellow smilies in this area.This was our seventh cache find of the day . We enjoyed the drive along these back roads near Busselton , no muggles or cars around so vey peaceful all we could hear was the birds . Parked up and took the short stroll to gz after a few minutes soon had cache in hand . Thanks for the cache Pood and giving us an excuse to come out to this area.
Found it with my brother had some fun putting various trinkets inside hit it in the same place we found it good luck to other finders
Definitely there. Started our 2nd tour of WA now touring around the south and now checking out Busselton. 26 January 2022 3:41 pm Tyfc pood total caches now 3790
I have just checked this one, not sure what container the last geocacher was looking at
At GZ, the actual geocache is still intact,
and in it’s place, at the correct gz coordinates.
A photo below shows the container with the log of previous finders still intact
Looking at the hint will indicate you are heading in the right direction of gz.

Found an empty green container full with water, no lid. I think this one needs work
On our way to drop the geo hounds at the nearby kennel. They needed to stretch their legs. Perfect! TFTC.
A quick find after a short walk. TFTH!
Found whilst out on an extended weekend road trip to Busselton, Dunsborough and surrounds with I C Nothing, Meme28 and geotrakka. Signed log as KAMEINGT.

Finally our girls weekend has arrived Kapelula, Meme28, Geotrekka and I C Nothing are heading south with four full days of caching to celebrate some birthdays and geo milestones. We have been puzzling like crazy in preparation so our aim is to find those caches and everything else that takes our fancy. Maybe even a challenge or two. Signed log as Kameingt.
Heading south with Kapelula ICNothing and geotrakka (KAMEINGT) on our girls weekend.
Another smiley for the weekend after signing the log!

Hi there pood.
We found your cache **"Chalkies Challenge XIII Acton-A-Fool"** at 8:21:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 23704).
The day promised to be another warm one, so we decided that logging some caches around Busselton would be a good idea. We started in Queen Elizabeth road, and then logged a few more caches using a "next closest" method. We thoroughly enjoyed our drive, walks and the scenery - even though the flies were particularly "sticky" today.. We found 10 caches & DNF'd 0.
Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 3m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape (but not a large one any longer).
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
**Grabbed Trackable:** "Ambassadors of Reconciliation".
Time for this interesting trackable to join us for part of our journey around Australia.
Thank you pood for adding to our adventure.
Regards
Ian & Penny

This cache was definitely damaged.
I replaced with a new container.
I hope you don't mind Pood.
The container is now small.

Sorry found a lid is what I ment to wrote in last log. Took a pic but dunno if came thru
Fair few muggles signing the log book
What better to do with some holidays than a road trip? We headed South for two days to help clear the map in preparation for the WAGB event later this year.
Using Busselton as our base for the trip, we did a full days caching from Perth to Busselton on day 1 and made it into Busselton just before the rain set in which washed out our night caching plans for the evening.
Day 2 saw us cleanup the last of the Busselton caches we had on the list and head to Dunsborough to grab a few around there and some along the back roads.
Was a great little trip with many a good sight.
Thanks to the local COs for their caches.

Another one found in the chalkie series. A great one for the kids to get started on.
Headed down south for a couple of days to pick up some caches that have come out since we were last here. All caches were found with a couple that took a bit of searching. TFTC
At the moment I'm on a work and travel backpacking year through the world. Most of the time I'll spend in Australia and I'm trying to solve my 365 days of caching challenge during this trip. The chance of having a moving home zone should be taken, as it will make the challenge so much easier.
Quick and easy find after visiting a friend in Busselton.
TFTC and greetings from Germany

Our little geogirl 4 found this all on her own (we told her which way to start looking) and she was ecstatic. TFTC!
Find number 3. my 4 children were born in the area. Spent many Christmases at this hall. Still scared of snakes and spiders. Lol
Thanks for the hide pood. Nice little old hall I remember going to a party here once. Good to see the old hall is still being used.
Visited this hall in the past for a couple of of events. Nice to drop by again for a different reason. Thanks Pood for bring us back.
What a beaut of a spot these old halls use to be a great central hub and still are TFTC
2nd Cache of 3 I went out for of Chalkies Challenges. Yoongarilup Hall and Acton Park Hall done, just had Kaloorup Hall left!
Great day us two girls had today, just us, the Prado, our gps's and a healthy dose of enthusiasm. No problems finding this one. Thanks again pood.
We have greatly enjoyed the Chalkies Challenge series and couldn't resist trying for a few more during this trip to Busselton. Thanks for the series pood. Another 2 to go.
our second for the day we where here for an event a month ago should have done it then and saved a trip

Went looking for big fancy rocks for our water feature - didn't find any other than coffee rock, sadly. A quick find of the cache, though, after a nice little drive. GPS had us on ACTION Road...you know, acton-the-fool as she usually does!! TFTC
A lovely area to place a cache. I'm really enjoying the Chalkies Challenge caches as they all have pioneer memories attached or history of some sort . Still a good few to do.
An easy find of a nice sized cache.
Find 2/24 and 2 DNF for todays effort.
TFTC. Took TB

We made an earlier than expected start to the day due to cancellations of our early morning appointment. We made a quick find once we arrived at GZ. Thanks for the cache pood.
We had come to Busselton as geo-hubby was supposed to do an early morning sky dive but it was cancelled due to overcast and drizzling weather. So headed off to do this cache which proved to be a 16 klm round trip from Vasse Hwy to reach it. For our diligence we were rewarded with a very quick find. Thanks pood.
