Good luck with finding the rest of your treasure over the next four weeks. May the spirit of Mary Hyde be with you on your geocaching travels and adventures Time to archive

Geodad Jeanovanwam made me get dressed and put me in the car. The entire time we were driving out there he was worried about running out of fuel. We made it just. I got to meet a few people and was really interested in all the trackables that were there. TFTE attended with Jeanovanwam. Missa25, Zooter10 and Hailz13

Attended with the Geofamily! TFTE

Very keen to get there.
I have a few trackables I'm looking to offload including a pirate themed one.

Late notice. I'll try n b there..

Should be able to get there.

Will be there. See you soon

Woah why did I only just see this. An hour to get there getting the geokids dressed and will bust my butt to get there. See you all soon

Dropped in to the event and dropped off a couple of tbs. Met some cachers I hadn't met before and a lot I already knew. A lot of talk about various caches around and even met a cacher from overseas.

Signed the log thanks for the event GeodudeAU

I came, I saw (some bounty, some treasure and many old hearties) and went. Apologies for my quick visit but I had a pre-arranged 10am. Thanks for my souvenir and see you round!

Why are geocachers so happy? Because. They arrrhhhh.

On our way from Kirrawee but not very hopeful we will make it in time.

Finally made it with the Geofamily. Good to meet some new faces TFTE

Met some faces behind the names!! Thanks for organising.

Thanks for organising GDAU. Plenty of bounty for all. It was great to meet so many new caching faces and some old (or not so old) ones too! And an international cacher sailed all the way from California USA!

Plenty of seaworthy yarns about caching the seven seas were discussed.

I brought the Bandaged Bear TB along just in case there was a shipwreck but fortunately there were no foolhardy buccaneers present.

TFTE. See you at the next one you pirate scoundrels!

That was an early meetup with all my geocache friends and new friends. Thanks for organizing it, thanks for the bounty!

Turned up to this event, it just kept growing, meet some new cachers and caught with others. Nice to see everyone out early before the shoppers. Thanks to GeodudeAU.

Thanks GeodudeAU for arranging this gathering of Pirates seeking to collect enough coinage to get the biggest possible share of the Lost Treasure of Mary Hide.
And now the race is on to collect as much as possible.
Great to meet new caches and share information about Cachley, Project-GC, caches that they can't solve and many other topics.
Visited a group of trackables.

Thanks for another great event GeodudeAU. Great to catch up with familiar faces and meet lots of new ones. Wishing everyone the best for the pirate adventure ahead! ??

Q. How do pirates communicate with each other?
A. With an Aye phone, but aye to aye is always best.

Thank you for a great event! Great to catch up with some old friends, meet some new friends and put faces to names I've seen so often.

Hung around and listened to lots of caching chat.

A nice group of pirates congregated in the food court for some chin wagging, trackable discovering and general shenanigans. Nice to have a US cachers amongst us and to catch up with cachers old and new. Thanks GeodudeAU for organising.

I arrived early and grabbed some caffeine at the Gloria Jeans place and spotted the small group setting up. As the morning proceeded the group got bigger.
It was great catching up with and chatting with a number of familiar faces and to see a few more new faces including a visitor from the USA. I left my eye patch at home Arrrgggh! Thanks fro organising the event GeodudeAU.

Just a flying visit as we had other plans but it was nice to catch with others briefly. Thanks for organising the event GeodudeAU!
Cheers,
The Hancock Clan

Thanks Geodude for organising. Grabbed a coffee and had a quick chat but had other commitments and couldn't hang around. Good luck searching for the treasure.

I came along with the Geofamily. TFTE

A cheeky selfie with my bestie ever (CoastBlue) and a photo of the "log book" began my adventures. Then catch up with Skye and met Seemyshell for the first time before he ran off. Then talk about ftf and US caches with Gooseville. My hubby came along even though he has man flu.
It was nice to see familiar faces in the crowd and meet GeodudeAU was great. I had a wonderful time, thanks for the bounty.

Arrr! The ship set sail and we be on it, me hearties!!!
Shiver me timbers we all be keen!!

TFTE GeodudeAU

A large group of buccaneers gathered to find the Lost Treasure of Mary Hyde. They came from all parts of Sydney and even an international pirate from California. There was lots of coffee and chatting and some pirates even found bounty at the end. A FTF recipient was randomly drawn and Integrated Planning, who was standing right beside me, claimed his very first prize.
Thanks to everyone who attended and good luck solving the other mysteries over the next few weeks to earn your souvenirs

Made it along after a few near- wrong turns off the M4. The lesson, as with caching, is always take your GPS.
Thanks GeodudeAU for organising and, once again, geocaching for a tour of a new part of Sydney.
Very pleased to be able to log my first ever [FTF] on this event. No late night bushbashing required.
TFTC!

Second of three events today on my last full day in Australia, visiting from Northern California, USA. Had a great time meeting with many of the locals - sorry that it was at the end of my journey or I'd have asked for many hints on caches that I had to DNF during my travels. Collected a couple TBs that I have brought over the Pacific to resume their travels here. TFTE

Intend attending.

Looks like I will be attending.

Arrr! Me thinks we be there!!!

We should be there, and finally we'll meet mister Geodude!

Looks like this is my nearest location to share in this adventure.
I will attend this land based treasure hunt.

Should be therrrrrrre - although only forrrrrrr the earrrrrrrly parrrrrrt.

After so much shuffling on this date, this looks like the only event I can attend... it will be short but sweet, just like Brewmaker Himself..
Cheers
Seemyshell

Ahoy there me hearties, Nessell the greenhorn reporting for duty in the quest for Mary Hydes bounty!
