To hard to find, maybe next time - the tomato turtles

With a determined Robyn60, we found it

TFTC - found with andysbs68:)

Last cache for the day down here in the Southern Highlands, except it wasn't the last cache for the day.
Parked the geomobile not far from GZ - nice looking golf course here.
I checked lots of possible hiding places but no luck so tried another place which matched the hint. No luck there either, so I went back to one of the first places I'd checked. Well hadn't checked carefully enough as there it was.

Found it after attending the CITO
Last cache of the day before heading back to the gong

Ran into CO on way to car
Easy find
TFTC

After finishing our last cache and heading to this one Geospark62 and I ran into CO HappyUke. We had a great chat and she was very helpful with info to finish off a trail we attempted this morning. Not today though it’s become too hot. Log signed and replaced as found. Thanks for all the caches HappyUke.

Lost my pen enroute. TFTC

A nice and quick find here. TFTC

Couldn’t find it, the hint made no sense and the comments were confusing and contradictory

I saw it and thought it was part of the structure. Checked again.

Good spot. But couldn't see the warning sign though

Having a quick visit to the southern highlands after exploring the South Coast for a few days.
Luckily GZ was just out of view of some muggle golfers, where we soon found the container.
Thanks for the cache

I found it hard but yer

Picked this one up on an afternoon stroll through the bush on the bike trail. This one was a quick find and replaced quickly. Then onto the bush track. TFTC

120. I enjoyed the type of cache, being different to most. Thank you

Great track, thanks!

Found it

Oh yay thanks that was easier then I thought it was gonna be

Nice tricky spot! Took me a while

Nice camo thanks

Found, thanks for the cache.

I could not find it my brain could understand the clue

??

Still there... down low
Happy caching

Couldn’t find. Confusing coordinates and clues.

Decided that a few roadside caches would be a good way to end the day. TFTC

Replaced log sheet and now all good to go!
Happy caching

Found. Out of message log, needs replacing. Tftc

A quick park and grab. Log is full. TFTC

Found after reviewing clues from others....missed first time. Nice blending.

Found with Moisty Potato who signed log

Well someone wasn't driving very cautiously... the sign was flattened!... and it wasn't even frosty!

Anyway the sign has been removed. So the cache is now over on the other side of the road. As such I have had to change the D/T rating to 2/1.5 sorry.

Good luck and happy caching

Starting off the geoventure with my partner in crime Mizcupcake today nice and early. We're here in the Mittagong area and enjoying the great weather. This is the 5th find for the day. This one was a little tricky as stealth is required because of it's location. I found this one quickly when reaching gz, but had to wait for a break in the traffic coming through. It was a little annoying but we got there in the end. Log was signed by us both and we headed off. TFTC!

Littl3Vix and I have decided to hit up the Southern Highlands for our big geo adventure today. We have a big day planned, Bowral and surrounds is the perfect place for us, many caches and many cache types! Plus, who can forget that its EarthCache weekend? So we left town early, despite my flat battery hitch at Littl3vixs house

Next, we came back up to Willow Vale to complete a power trail or 2, and stop number 5 was here. We parked nearby and wandered over, both of our instincts led ups one way, but the GPS pulled us in the other, once the first place turned up nothing, Littl3Vix made a quick find while trusting the GPS more than I did lol. Thank you for the cache!

Found it

Quite a few passing cars for a small town. Nice sneaky hide TFTC

Catching up on logging all my finds since i joined in July. Really tricky, tftc!

A little tricky. Follow the hint.

This was tricky! GPS went nuts so just focused on the hint and eventually had CIH! Tftc!

Tricky

Met up with HappyUke today after messaging about a previous missing cache. Surprised with a path tag each! Lovely lady, Thank you!

A very sneaky hide, we began our search but had to pause to let some muggles pass by, it was at that time that the cache owner happened to come by. We had a quick friendly chat and they looked on as we made the find. It was nice to meet the cache owner and have a chat. Thank you for the cache!

Took a bit of caching experience to find this one

nice find by aspitbiker

Found it thanks. I found it.

TFTC TFTH A super sneaky hide, thanks for the hint. Well done HappyUke for the cache..BZ

Really needed my glove but took my life in my hands and was soon signing the log. TFTC HappyUke

I liked the fun hint, which becomes immediately obvious when at GZ. Nice hide too and good coordinates. Cache is a micro. Cache and log are good. TFTC HappyUke.

A hoot from fellow Geocacher. Morning mate....

I had perfect coords.
Thanks for this - all looking good at gz.

#5296 Found on a stop-off on the way back to Canberra from a quick trip up to Sydney. I figured I could spare about an hour to find caches before I needed to hit the road again and thought this area looked interesting. I loved the walk through the bush alongside the railway, no trains today.

Thanks HappyUke!

Found with the Geo Fam while in the area thanks

Find number 4616

A nice quick find while out for an afternoon of caching in the area.

Retrieving was a little tricker as the cache was in a little deeper than as could reached, but a handy tool soon had it out in our hand.

Thanks HappyUke for placing this cache.

Found with The Booos

The time has finally arrived for a massive Australian road trip with The Kiwi Chicks. We are GraciesGPSfun , thedbees , Ethness, Infoferret , Jude_E and me Nosynel. We might sometimes sign the geocaches as KCs or TKCs. TFTC

No chance of black ice today - too warm.

Signed KC for Kiwi Chicks (Infoferret, Jude_E, NosyNel and me) who are Australia for the now finished OzMuster. We are on a 6 day road trip - caching all the way.TFTC

Kiwi Caching Chicks are in Aussie! We are Nosynel, Infoferret, Jude_E and Ethness. Came over from NZ for the Ozgeomuster and trying to do as many caches as we can in the time we have here. We signed as KCC. On our way to Albury. Thanks for the hide.

Sadly there was no large event in New Zealand in 2019 but there are a few Mega events planned in Australia. New Zealand will have another large event in 2020 in Auckland. 
======== NZ Mega 2020 ========
Planning for the NZ Mega 2020 event is well underway. It will be held in Auckland over Labour Weekend, 23 to 26 October 2020. Thanks for hiding this geocache.

Thanks for the cache HappyUke.

Spotto seemed to be two chachers looking for the geocache.

Driving to Canberra for the Queen’s Birthday long weekend. A beautiful day to be driving around the slow route there and enjoying the sights and caches placed in the countryside by our awesome cache owners. This is another great Cache walk In the Willow Vale area by HappyUke. Persist with this one and you will find it. If you’re scared of putting your fingers down places where spiders could hide. I had given up but my wife persisted but I was the brave soul who put my fingers where she wouldn’t. gloves For the Faint hearted. TFTC

Quick find however geo husband had to reach in, geo wife to scared incase of spiders!!

Extra warning!!!! Caution required to extract the cache. The hide was inhabited by a red back spider this morning. We signed the log and exterminated the unwanted visitor. Tftc

On our way to a week in Callala Bay. Beautiful scenic drive brought us here with Clan Venter. Thank you.

On our way to a week in Callala Bay. Beautiful scenic drive brought us here with geo mom and dad, Strandlopers. Nice easy series, loved the walk! TFTC
