We pass by this cache everyday and have checked on it many many times between finds as there is a gardener there most weeks. Apart from keeping the lawns and gardens in excellent condition he does at times move the cache, sometimes a little, sometimes a lot and we have had to replace it a few times. We can't locate it this time and as it seems that the gardener is a very zealous fellow we think it best that we reconsider this hide and open up the area for a different hide.
We arrived in Geraldton yesterday and after having breakfast this morning we headed out to find some local caches. We started off ok and then things went downhill with lots of DNFS. We only managed 23 finds today with 11 DNFS and I'm sure most of them were missing with a few tricky ones that we just couldn't find after searching for ages. Hopefully we have more luck tomorrow finding caches. TFTC
Ja, wir haben uns getraut! Die Hochzeit als ein ganz besonderer Tag im Leben zweier Menschen, der unserer Meinung nach viel zu schnell verging. Aber um das Geschehene wirklich genießen zu können und den Stress der vergangenen Monate zu vergessen, eignen sich die zweisamen Flitterwochen bestens. Dies Planung dafür war bereits vor der eigentlichen Hochzeitsplanung abgeschlossen^^ Uns verschlug es dafür nach Down Under - an das andere Ende der Welt, ca. 16.200km entfernt. Wir starteten unsere Rundreise an der sonnigen Westküste um Perth über die stürmische Südküste zwischen Adelaide und Melbourne zu den im nebelverhangenen Tasmanien. Die Vielfalt der Landschaften und Möglichkeiten scheint unbegrenzt: Dünen hinabsurfen, Schluchten herabsteigen, Wasserfälle bestaunen, an Traumstränden Kängurus beobachten, Caches suchen…. Aber immer mit einem wachsamen Auge, denn hier scheint hinter jedem Stein und in jeder Spalte etwas zu krabbeln, was mich vielleicht mehr als meinen Stift kostet. Aber alles gut gegangen, nun sind wir wieder in der Heimat und schwelgen in Erinnerungen^^
Vielen Dank für den Cache als Teil einer unvergesslichen Hochzeitsreise! Liebe Grüße miss_stella aus Leipzig

TFTC! This cache was found on my two and a bit day GeoTrip to Geraldton and surrounds to attend the International Geocaching Day event in Greenough.
The weekend started with a nighttime drive from Perth to Geraldton getting in at 1140pm after finding a couple of caches along the way in the dark. I rose on my first day in town as grabbed supplies before some CBD caching and then some more hides in Greenough before the event. I had a nice little run after the event following the guys chasing a few of the FTFs before getting back to my planned routes to help cleanup a lot of the newly published caches since my last visit in 2013. Had a reasonable day, which went Pretty pear shaped come mid afternoon, with a large number of DNFs in the northern Geraldton suburbs. I returned to my accomodation to freshen up and watch a bit of footy before heading out again on a night time run around the CBD. Big Mistake. had one of those blind nights, where the easy finds were impossible and I resorted to PAF to help guide me on some of the simplest hides!!
I was back on the saddle the next day grabbing a bunch of caches in southern Geraldton before attending the CITO event. Grabbed a few bits of rubbish and got talking to the local COs, where were most amused by my DNFs LOL. They were gracious enough to provide a large number of hints which Ive stored in the memory bank for next year!
Thanks to all of the locals for your hospitality this weekend and I'm looking forward to attending next year! Thanks

Beautiful evening, having a starlit walk along the beach, nipped off for some caches. TFTC 
Day fifty three of the WA road trip with BettyBoo3747.
Another travelling day - Hamelin Pools to Geraldton.
Woke up to a grey day, but the rain didn't start until we were past Northampton - about when we started doing a few caches.
Just where we are staying for a couple of nights! Not too bad - a cache 24 meters from where the car is parked!
Thanks, Robmc.

# 8175. Well here we are in Geraldton, arriving to a very wet and windy afternoon. Out we go for some caches and end up with an abysmal tally of 5 finds and 5 DNF's.
Amazingly, this is exactly where we are staying for 2 nights and I can thoroughly recommend it. Very classy. As we pulled in Rob commented that there was a cache right here. How good is that? So we went and grabbed it straight away. The first find in town and things go downhill from here.
Thanks jrlt
