In Roma for a few days, so today we dedicated to geocaching - this was our guide, basing our route on "next closest". Our starting point was the information centre - for obvious reasons.

Didn't do the Hospital Hill Walk, but did stop here to read the boards, and find the cache. Thanks jpgordo. Only one left in town now, but today was not the day, maybe tomorrow.

Detour around Australia- family of 6 in a campertrailer for 6 months!

We went for the walk as suggested, a bit dodgy part of town but the boards were interesting and it was good to see the actual site of QG1 after doing the big rig tour this morning!

Thanks for the cache today as we explore Roma!

Didn't know this about Roma so was very interested in the information boards here.
The cache was quickly found but much lower than expected from the clue. Replaced it where we found it but don't think it is its proper hiding spot.
Thanks.

Our last day in the Maranoa District and we wanted to finish off the rest of the caches around Roma. Spending the time caching with our great friends FelixII.

We are finally back in internet signal so I am catching up with my logging. As the log was full we added a new sheet and gave the old one to the CO. Lovely to meet you and some of your familyBig Grin

Thanks for the cache jpgordo[^]

Travelling around Australia in our Caravan with our cat.

Camped at Roma Gun Club with our friends Sylken and their cat!

Planning to move camp tomorrow so it was time to make as many finds in town as possible. Razz

Thought we were going to be more exhausted finding this cache but we all survived okay. Replaced the logsheet whilst here.
