Suscoe headed out today to enjoy the sights of Albany and to take in some local caches.
It was a mild day with some cloud and some sun and a cool breeze from the south east.
We saw some great views around the coast and took in some interesting bushland
Thanks to cravo10 for this hide.
All good here today and we admired the art work too.

Will check on this when I can get down next a talk to the new manager about this cache.
Our first day in Albany. Woke up to changeable weather, sometime sunny, sometimes pissing down rain - felt right at home!
Bettyboo3747 and I started with getting supplies in (then ate most of them!). We then cached a bit after an early lunch. Just a few local caches.
I completely missed the sail on the first pass as I was looking towards GZ!
We parked near there and I got a good view. Probably a bit more interesting during the night when they are lit up.
A very nice cache container.
Thanks, Robmc.

#12471. Day 1 of our WA holiday. After such a late arrival in town last night after a damned early start we took a while to get going today. After hitting the supermarket for supplies we finally headed out for a couple of local caches by foot and then into the chariot for a few more around the traps. Not an altogther successful day however.
The last one for the afternoon and boy what a busy time of the day in this carpark. Fortunately the cache was a long way from the muggle activity and a very nice hide it was too. We enjoyed finding this one. Added our names to the log and now off to our accommodation to write up the logs before dinner.
Thanks cravo10

Last quick find at the end of the trek down to Albany. Missed being able to find it in its first location, so happy to be able to claim my smiley today. Thanks for placing this cache for us to find cravo10
A great time away in Albany was had and a few caches were picked up along the way while visiting good friends. Very nice camo!!

Found this one. Very cute
Muggle mum works here and had heard mention of it- says it explains some odd behaviour she has seen

While in Albany visiting family we took off for a morning of caching. This was a nice easy one after a couple of DNF this morning. Thanks for the cache
One last cache on the way to dinner and this one was it. Very clever bit of camo too.
Found by Mary & David, in convoy with The Coffees, Alansee and micaparamedic (sometimes logged as a variation of C.A.M.M.), at 1710. Parked a little way away and walked to GZ. Soon spotted something suspicious - the cache! Now we'll head over to the shops for some needed supplies. Our thanks to cravo10.
Out and about for the day heading towards the WA goes big event and this cache was on the way.
Our thanks to Cravo10 for the cache

Finally decided to come and grab this one, a quick easy find and a great camo. TFTH.
The hubby and i decided to drive to Albany to do a caching run. we left early so we could pick up caches along the way. After doing the A series we picked up a few more caches that were found quite quickly. TFTC

I had me really dark sunglasses on for this mid morning cache chase
Which is why as I drove into the area and parked the geomobile, I never noticed the sails !!
After a wander on foot around the building, I finally spied the sails as I approached GZ
At least the cache was easier to spot [^]
A very clever version of this 'favourite' bit of camo [^]
TFTC.
So nice to keep the Status Quo

Found this morning with Everlasting after Mr ILT took us for an interesting and unnecessary 4WD tour of the nearby bush land. TFTF
After 2 short days of caching in Denmark and Albany we are repositioning to near the Perth airport. Our stay in WA is nearing an end. We really enjoyed out visit.
Once we figured out how to get to the gz the cache was quickly found, well executed. Guessing the hint is no longer relevant since the cache was moved.

We re beginning to think this cache would never be available on one of our visits to Albany after three misses in the past. This is a ripper hide and glad to finally have a smiley. Thanks cravo10

Had a really good look all over and around but just could not find. Hubby and I were both looking
Totally looked all over the sails with no luck , we has 2 sets of eyes looking, wondering if still there
Visited late but unfortunately some of the nearby workers were sitting around waiting for lifts. Managed to outlast them but later as I was replacing the cache I noticed another worker over in his car. Talk about muggle central. Anyway I hope he was too intrigued by his phone to notice me affixing my moniker on what appeared to be a new log sheet. Thanks cravo10 for the fun
I've often wondered how the sail lights worked, so this was a good opportunity to take a closer look and solve that mystery! One of our younger team members soon had the cache in hand. It's well hidden and blends in well, and hopefully it's sufficiently well disguised to go the distance. TFTC cravo10.
Good quick find very clever TFTC

Spotted when we drove along. More tricky to sign without drawing attention to yourself. TFTC
Easy to spot but not as easy to retrieve it unnoticed. Hope it stays around for a while. TFTC
We only live nearby and it's taken us this long to find this cache! Geo-man said "Let's grab this one while it's quiet" on the way home today. Quick park and grab on this magical day in spring. TFTH!
Can the cache owner confirm - is this still here? Has it been replaced yet?
Quick drop in on the way back from picking up the young bloke from grandfathers to finish a day of geocaching off TFTF- found 16/08/15
Spotted it on earlier visits to the area but never a quiet moment to get it with people around. Finally managed to make a quick grab this evening while the place was deserted.
Looks great at night when all lit up.

Really came here not knowing what to look for as its all new to me. However with not a soul in the car park I had the place to myself for a really good look and easy find. Will be back to see the light show at night sometime.
Coastn is back in Albany for a few days and it’s a good chance to tick off a few more local caches off. Found under the cover of darkness or should I say under the glow of a great light show. A hard one to do when the car park is full of muggles.
TFTC at least you will know and be able to replace the very next day with the location of this cache
You can almost get away with anything when you bring a kid with you
Thanks for the cache
