Found It!
This cache is sitting submerged in water so the insides were rather wet. I dried the logbook out a little and left my mark but it would've just got wet again when I put the cache back.

After the BIG wet doing a cache maintenance run – completed this cache while on the trip – like many caches after the BIG wet – the log sheet is soaked wet – didn’t bother moving log sheet as it was so wet – it would become a wet mess of paper ball – needs a new log sheet - TFTC / TFTH

TFTC,
We had morning tea here and while Nana nel made the coffee, I walked 35M and came back to the table with a saturated log. Tried to dry it out but gave up and replaced it.
Today after having solved a number of puzzles in the local GeoArt series, we are finally making some finds in the area.
Visited trackables.

We have travelled from Sydney’s Northern Beaches to Emu Plains for a short 3 day caching holiday, staying in a park cabin at the Ingenia Nepean River BIG4 Holiday Park at Emu Plains, and are planning to explore the areas between Penrith and Warragamba, including a stop-off on arrival day at St Marys. Hoping to collect some previously solved Puzzle caches and to also complete the Adventure Labs at St Marys, Penrith and Warragamba. Will also be on the hunt for Natural Wonders and Solar System Wonders, to complete the Wonders of the World souvenir challenge.

Today we headed out to Warragamba for the Adventure Lab and the cluster of Traditional caches, then cached around Wallacia and back along Mulgoa Road to Mulgoa. This was our 9th find of the day, and 31st find of the holiday.

A nice quick find of a familiar hide style. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. Wow that's an impressive bulbus structure across the road from GZ. TFTC, The Booos.

Catching up on logs Out on a rainy cache day with Littl3Vix and we have decided to head to Warragamba area and see what we can hit up on our way. This was our ninth stop and we weren't alone here unfortunately, someome had parked their RV nearby and was having coffee out the front. That wasn't an issue though, we found the cache and was able to get all duties completed while out of view. Thanks for another cache!!

I had planned to come through this area yesterday for a bit of caching and some fresh air but due to time restraints I didn’t make it. Today though, with an earlyish start MizCupcake and I got together for a geoventure. For this ones we enjoyed lovely walks across different areas of this massive park. Our 9th find today. We parked the geomobile close by at this one and jumped out to ‘check out the pine trees’ there was an rv very close by with a muggle having her coffee and reading a book outside. Luckily the trees here gave us good cover as well and we just happened to be in the perfect spot. While sharing horticultural knowledge, suddenly a shine caught my eye and we had CIH. A surprising quick find giving us high spirits and we were eager to move on. We both signed, replaced and headed off. TFTC!

A quick find by SBMT's geomate today. My new phone is certainly much better for caching than my old one. I still prefer my trusty 64s for navigation though. Thank you.

Nice easy find after spotting something out of place. With the cache in hand we signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache container and log are in good condition. Thanks for the cache The Booos.

This is the third try to log this cache as every time I get close to finishing my log it disappears into heaven. I had another try at the close by Adventure Lab cache and again I failed to answer the question, so after numerous tries I gave up as the GPS had me some distance from the sign as it did with WPT #1.
OK failed again so while in the area I will try a few other Trads and see if I can gain a few similes.
On arrival there were a few caravans in the nearby park and the cache was soon in hand so with log signed it was on to the next.
Thanks to The Booos for placing this cache.
