Staying in Port Douglas for a few days. Drove down to Hartley’s Crocodile Adventures (great place to visit) this afternoon and picked up five caches along the way. Other than the first of them, they were all of the ‘magnetic’ variety, and each took less than a minute to locate. #2650. TFTC.

Greetings from Wellington, NZ.

Travelling back to stay with our daughter and her family in Cairns after a fantastic two-night stay in Cape Tribulation, so we took the opportunity to stop and find a few caches when we were happy we could pull off the road safely to do so. The magnet is missing from this one, but it was still safe in its hiding place. SL. TFTC.

It was the last day of our holiday in FNQ and with a 9:00pm flight, we drove up from Palm Cove to Port Douglas for the day. Late in the afternoon we started back... stopping along the way to find this series as we went. Some were easy, others weren't. The only one I didn't find was #6... because I didn't feel comfortable in a very small pull off with a lot of traffic on the road, I didn't stay there.

Thanks **Fullboar>** for the series... a bit of extra fun to pass away some time on teh drive south.

Last day of our Cairns holiday, so we decided to grab some caches along the coast.
Most caches were found easily with only a few DNF-s.

Thanks Fullboar> for the hide.


 
04-Jul-18
We apologise for the kinda generic logs.
We headed north this morning just so we could turn around and come back south and do this series in a safe manner.
We found what we consider to be a Fullboar trademark container. All the caches that we found are in good condition and the co-ords are great. SL TFTC
 
While staying at Mount Malloy we took a day trip down the range to the Captain Cook Highway where we enjoyed finding most of the geocaches.

The weather was overcast and rainy but that didn't stop us enjoying the views and having a wonderful day.

thanks

My husband and I are visiting from Melbourne, and are staying in Cairns for two weeks. Today we drove to Cape Tribulation and on the way back to Cairns we stopped to find a few of the Scenic Drive South series. We missed a few when there were cars driving behind us or cars already in the pulloffs.
Thank you Fullboar> for the series. We had fun finding the ones that we did.

Our time in FNQ is drawing to an end. So we decided to do some full on caching and left the caravan in Walkamin whilst we head out to explore Port Douglas and Cairns.

Possibly one of our biggest caching days this year with 34 finds from 38 attempts.

Nice sunny day for beach visiting although a touch warm and humid. But a great day none the less.

Today we decided to go for a drive to Port Douglas while the (grand)kids, who we are visiting in Cairns as we continue our meandering across northern Australia after attending the Red Centre Experience over Easter, are at work.
I had promised Pa no talk of caches as we drove north, with the proviso that we tackle some of the trail on our return trip. I tried surreptitiously to check out the likely GZs and chose a few to hunt for as we headed south.
This was the third, and it was a quick find, sign and replace.
Thanks for placing this series of caches for us to find Fullboar.

Tftc . It is about 10m out but due to an earlier log we already knew that so thanks for that

TFTC. It was a lovely Sunday morning so we decided to drive a loop from Mareeba to Port Douglas and then down the coast to Cairns before climbing back up the range. On the drive down the coast to Cairns we stopped at most of this series. All the caches we found were in good order and the log we were getting very full. Most need a new log. Unfortunately we did not have a supply with us otherwise we would have done a little bit of maintence.

We have been staying with friends in Cairns and thought that we would take the chance and come up Port Douglas to have a little bit of a look around and grab the earth cache as well as any others on our travels.
We are playing the Pirate souvenir game and not having cached for a few days this seemed like a good series to get a few points on the board and we are glad that we decided to do it as it showed us some fantastic little stops along the way although some would have been a bit tight if there had of been another car there. We had one DNF on Number 13 and were muggled out and could not look at number 1 so for tourist season we were quite happy with our score.

Many thanks Fullboar for setting up this series, it made the drive back from Port Douglas more enjoyable.

Today we went by car from Trinity Beach to Mossmann Gorge for a walk, but we arrived a little too late to do the full tour (so we will be back tommorrow and do the Mossmann Gorge trail) so instead we headed back towards Trinity Beach and we had the possibility to find more of the caches from this trail. Thank you for placing the caches with the beautiful view here. Geetings from Denmark. TFTC.
