Hi... with council maintenance happening in the area, its a bit difficult to replace... we will get something back in place as soon as possible. Thanks.
No luck here. Initially we thought the new looking seat was the issue with the cache being on the old seat. However the CO contacted us after checking and confirmed that it was on a differant structure that had been removed.
We went to check on this one after an expeienced cacher logged a DNF... not possible we thought. But when we got there the entire fence that it was attached to was gone. But the local council workers did hang it in a tree for us. We may need to rethink this one a bit.
Now that the restrictions have eased around the state, time to go caching again. Stay safe everyone... remember to enjoy the little things.
Disabling until socially acceptable to continue with caching. Stay home everyone, stay safe.
Staying in town for a couple of days as we head up the coast, the rain cleared and the sin came out so we headed out (with everyone else) to make the most of it... A small hole was ripped in the log rather than my standard FRK moniker, my pen not liking the 100% humidity. Thanks for the hide and smiley here richo66 and Tatt2squared

While on a quick early morning walk we found ourselves on top of this one but without a pen. I hope the photolog is OK. Beautiful location..... TFTC!

A nice quick find on the Coastal Walk.
The seas are rough today.... not much good for the fires around.

A pleasant stroll along this walkway. Kenny was eady to spot... with some help from decrypted hint
We had largely abandoned caching and were concentrating on finishing the coastal trail walk, but made a quick find of this one on the way past. TFTC
After a day of walking from Port to the lighthouse and back, geocaching is just the thing to keep the geokids motivated. This was a quick grab, took us 5 sec to find. TFTC
Checked in on this cache today and it was indeed missing, carried out the replacement duties, moved the location slightly, and just enjoyed the view. Happy caching all

And we got there the cupboard was bare, have a feeling we found the spot but it’s gone? Hope we are wrong and it was just our bad looking? JenneG and Budgy from Nth Nowra
I didn’t think This would be an easy one as the last log date was in januari. However I found it within seconds. The coastal walk is great. We walked from the breakwall campground. Thanks very much for showing me around. Grtz from Holland
Managed to look on the wrongs side of the track the read the hint and spotted it in moments tftc
Back in Down Under for the next edition of SuCos Great Australian Roadtrip!
Heading from Sydney to Brisbane in a HippieCamper, what a great fun...
Spend some time around Port Macquaire with nice walks!
Great view from here, found easily. TFTC

They killed Kenny didn't they ?? [:o)]
I went wandering along Kenny's trail anyway today to see if I could find out where he went.
Ah !! There he is

After missing out on a few earlier today this one was a easy find.
This is one of our favourite walking paths when the swell is high.

We have headed south a few weeks early to have a little holiday prior to attending the Oz Geomuster Mega event. We have found ourselves based in Port Macquarie for a few days which has enable us to spend some time exploring some of the nearby towns.
Today one of the local caching teams (DiMorgan) kindly offered to show us some of their favourite places around Port, and also to check out some of the flooding which had occurred with the recent heavy rains, as well as find a few caches while we were at it
We had no difficulty in locating the cache and with our name added to the log book, we continued on our way.
Thank you Tatt2squared for having placed the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy

Our 3rd of the morning after deciding to head south from our digs at Flynns Beach... Quick and easy find, and the activities log was spot on...

Always love caching around the Port, the scenery is stunning. This was one of the caches we targetted and found. Thanks to ThousandYardStare for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.
We have travelled up from Sydney’s Northern Beaches to Port Macquarie for our annual summer holiday, camping in our Jayco Swan Outback camper trailer at the Breakwall (Sundowner) Holiday Park. Today we decided to do some caching along the coastal strip starting at Shelly Beach and working our way Northward to Oxley Beach. This was our 5th find of the day, and 16th find of the holiday.
After finding "Coastal Walk #3: Shelly Beach" we next followed the bush track to this one, arriving at GZ and making a quick find. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC richo66.

It was a rainy day. Geokids were staying in the apartment and I was out for 10km coastal walk. On the way back, decided to check cache nearby. It was a quick found. No pen brought with me. So attached the photo as the evidence. TFTC
Such an easy find, clue was straightforward. Beautiful view definitely come back for a swim. TFTC.
Was walking along this nice track again and noticed this cache had a recent DNF. Checked on cache and it is still there.
Nobby and Shelly beach are two of my favourites here in PMQ. I have walked Kenny's numerous time, but never thought of a chache hidden along the walk. Cache in good cond but be careful of landmines left behind by dogs (or more appropriately put, the unconcerned owners). TFTC
Well the weather has let us down a bit today. After weeks of blue skies and temperatures in the 20's we've got clouds, strong winds and have had to break out our jumpers. Still it's much warmer than back home in Victoria, and we aren't battling rain, hail or snow, so we are really quite happy to be here. Lots of lovely caches for us to find just puts the icing on the cake for us.
We fully expected this cache would be a porta- loo and that may well have been convenient, but this was not the case. Instead we found a nice section of the coastal walk from which we could observe the big seas and beautiful coastline. With excellent coordinates it wasn't log before we reached GZ where Beachlyf made a nice straightforward find. After signing the log it was down to the nearby car park to look for anomalies.

Another glorious day for some Caching in the Port Macquarie area. A lovely walking track, with great views at GZ. First to sign new log and many thanks for bringing us here. TNLN SL TFTC
Hi there Richo66.
We found your cache **"Where's Kenny ?"** at 2:54:00 PM today. (This makes our total find count 17424).
Today we cached around the 'burbs of Port Macquarie and found 9 caches in a variety of container types and sizes (& DNF'd 0). Thank you for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places to visit on our nomadic wander around Australia.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards

In town killing a bit of time and decided to do a few caches with the kids. Nice easy find in a picturesque place. Thanks for the cache
Sorry for the late log. Found with Zwartclan. Great spot but took us a bit to find as it was basically buried.
Thanks richo, cheers from Browngang

The Kenny Walk is a favourite place for us to come. Often we bring the dog and walk around to Nobbys Beach so he can have a run and frolic in the sand and sea. We had placed a cache exactly on this spot back in 2009 called Cetacea Views as it was a nice vantage point to see whales passing by in whale watching season. Excellent choice Richo66. TFTC. Brought through TB and GC for a visit.
Back to PM to mop up the remaining few caches that have been on the radar for quite some time now and this little cluster on the headland was just the thing for such a glorious day. Found quickly and was able to replace without any muggles around. Stunning views, love this coastal walk.
What s gorgeous walk with stunning views. Thanks for placing the cache along this walk.
It is a bit wet and the ground it a bit slippery and as per usual I am not wearing geocaching appropriate shoes. Oh no, now its raining, big fat heavy rain.
TFTC!!!!

Loved walking the coastal trail today and getting a few smileys
Cache all good

Went for a walk with the little one after leaving the wife to read her book. this was our third stop. Found quickly after disturbing some water dragons sunning themselves on the path nearby. TFTC.
