As we headed from Swan Hill to Bendigo today, we stopped along the way to look for some caches. This was one of them.

Accurate coordinates and a familiar style of hide led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Aussie Fun Seekers for the cache.

Up in Mildura for the school holidays and managed to fit a bit of caching in around the other activities. On our way home and could only convince the rest of the family to a small number of caching stops. The kids had spotted the nearby park here as a good place to stretch the legs so while they were climbing and sliding I wandered over to gz. After a quick search I found the cache well tucked away in its hiding spot. On my way back I took the time to check out the nicely maintained lawn tennis courts which you don't see all that often anymore. Thanks for the cache Aussie Fun Seekers.

#14692. Day 1 of a short break for Robmc and me so we are spending a few nights at Lake Boga Caravan Park. Most of the day was spent travelling and collecting 13 caches along the way.

Very nicely camouflaged and well hidden today but I knew where it was. A quick retrieval and our names added and we continued on. Time to head to our accommodation and unload our goodies and the geodogs. Hope to do more in town on our return journey.

Thanks Aussie Fun Seakers

I had a few extra days off work so BettyBoo3747 and I decided to nip across to Swan Hill for a few caches. Been quite a while since we have been here and there are lots of new caches to do.
Travelled across from Beechworth to Lake Boga today, relaxing by the lake now.

Only our second cache in Kerang, we hope to do a few more on the way back
A quick find by BB ( I was too lack to get out of the car! - anyway it was on the passenger's side)
Thanks, Robmc.

The phone insisted I search in the middle of a very large puddle out in the middle of nowhere. Ignoring that as it was patently wrong I headed off in various directions to possible hiding places but with no luck. Another time. Another day

Found on the last day of our trip to Lake Boga, where we saw the Catalina airshow and display, went fishing, and of course cached our way around as well. Chunk spent a lot of his early years in Kerang, so we made sure we travelled back this way to revisit memories.

A quick find for us here. Rod Laver - what a legend.

My grand parents (Harrowang) and I (Ava) are on a road trip and holiday together. Today we are driving from Kerang to Murrayville, stopping along the way for caches and any other interesting things we see. I raced ahead with the GPS and quickly had the cache in hand by the time Harrowang caught up to me. That makes two caches so far and we haven't even left Kerang yet! TFTC Aussie Fun Seakers - time to get going on this humid day.
 
27-Dec-16
A bit more of a stretch of the legs before 1/3 of Beavar and the harrowang's get in the car for more driving. Ava from Beavar made the find and we SL at 9.49am. Time to hit the road collecting caches here and there along the way to Murrayville, as well as taking in the sights to break the journey. #4290 TFTC Aussie Fun Seakers
