My son B777 must be getting addicted to Geocaching. While playing cricket between innings I hear a knock in the door and in his full cricket gear hes holding a geocache. It was located 10M from the car. I helped re-hide the cache.
Nice sunny Sunday over in Hawkesbury region with Graubunden. One of many geofinds out there. TFTC Cruiseforever
Quick find with accurate coords and helpful hints. I had a great afternoon caching around the Richmond - Kurrajong area before the Beer O'Clock Event in North Richmond. OCW Gavingo4 and GHHH. TFTC Cruiseforever
OCW EverestHigh and gavingo4. A quick find here. Container is a zip lock bag. TFTC
First one of the day.Doesnt seem to have a container just a snap bag. Nice new log which is perfectly dry.TFTC.
Easy find! It felt a little too easy so I put some sticks, leaves and bark over it but still is pretty easy to see when you are in the right spot.Found with mummaofsix
We are on another short (three day) caching holiday in North Western Sydney, staying for two nights in a park cabin at the Ingenia Holidays Avina BIG4 Holiday Park at Vineyard. Hoping to collect some previously solved Mystery/Puzzle caches, complete some Adventure Labs, and accumulate enough cache finds for this month’s "Wheel of Challenges" easy & hard souvenir chase. Photos will be uploaded to some (most) logs on our return to home base.
Today (day 2) we explored the areas around Wilberforce, Ebenezer, and Sackville. Completed a five stage Adventure Lab, as well as a couple of random Adventure Lab stages (waypoints), and collected numerous Traditional caches, a previously solved Mystery/Puzzle cache, a MultiCache, and a Virtual cache. This was the 2nd of 31 finds for the day (day 2), and 22nd find of the holiday.
This one was next, and it was a nice quick find on arrival at GZ. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. No cricket happening here today, but an impressive row of tall poplar trees can be viewed from GZ. TFTC Cruiseforever.

Nice to see the area starting to recover after the 3 floods last year. Nice spot. TFTC
Well that’s certainly a different container type. Made sure the bag was sealed before returning. TFTC
Found this one a while back and forgot to log it. Pretty quick and easy find. Tftc
Heading across the creek decided to stop for this one. A quick find was made
With cache in hand we signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for bringing me to the area and thanks for placing the cache Cruiseforever

Out and about on a sunny and warm day in September finding previously unfound caches north of the Hawkesbury River around Freemans Reach, Glossodia, and Wilberforce. Most were pretty easy to find, although parking wasn't always easy. Amazing to see the erosion and destruction surrounding these caches located close to the river bank after floods earlier in the year. Almost gave up on this one, but managed to locate the curious container! SL TFTC Cruiseforever!
There was a muggle sitting in a car near GZ. So we walked around to two other nearby caches and on returning he was still there. It was morning tea time, so we got out our thermos and had a cuppa on the nearby seats. The muggle then left and we swooped into GZ.
Unfortunately, only the logsheet in its plastic bag was found. We had a spare plastic jar which we then placed at GZ. TFTC Cruiseforever

Couldn’t find, given the hint and successful finds thought this was a sure thing - better luck next time
When the doctor says to relax more, what do you do? Geocache, of course! This was cache #1 for the day. Very windy, nice shady spot in the cool breeze. Amazing to know that the previous floods came up this high.
Cache and log are in excellent condition. Took a photo of the nearby pitch. TFTC!

Quick easy find with Olmalol! In great condition, just be wary of the creepy crawlies.

Today was a road trip around the Hawkesbury area. An ambitious list of caches to find as I set myself a target of reaching 10,000 finds by year end. Covid-19 lockdown put a spanner in the works and I now have only two months to find the remaining 200+ caches. So rather than interesting caches, I had to schedule a day in the car and go for quantity, rather than quality.
Quick find today.
This is 5 of 61 finds today. TFTC!

Thought I was going to be here for a long and messy search amongst the bushes and fallen timber, but with excellent co-ords, the cache was found in the first spot that I looked in [^]
Thanks Cruiseforever.

Great day of caching near the Hawkesbury River. Started in Ebenezer with the AL, unfortunately very unsuccessful as the location service on my phone was struggling and could not fix on the wp's I needed. Luckily I also made a good plan for other caches so the day turned out productive. Weather was really good, about 20 with a little breeze and nice and sunny.

Didn’t take anything but during this time I thought a bottle opener would be a good thing to leave
