Omg I chose the hottest day to try and find it. It was so hot I could barely touch the metal and had to keep going back to a tree for shade. This cache makes you look dodgy as hell
There were motorcycles parked around the cache and I was worried that the owner would suspect that we were trying to steal them!
Quick find this morning. A little hard to find with the cars parked so close we got there. TFTC

Off I left my flat this afternoon in order to find my first cache of the year, and earn a new souvenir.
I failed to find one cache further up the road, so I headed to this one next. I first searched in the wrong corner, and soon changed to another place to look. A bit of a thorny find, but it didn't take too long to hunt down.
I realised after that two people were watching me from the front of their house a few doors down. I quickly signed the log, put the cache back, and walked off. I wasn't so keen that this cache was so close to peoples' houses. A bit awkward... TFTC.

Found in the course of a neat stroll on a sunny public holiday in Annandale. Good hide.
Thank you, Lewis_Allen

Pulled into Sydney today, decided to go for a walk and get some caches! Ended up being around 17km in the end! Just one more!
Another smiley for my map!

Nice view from just near this cache.
Found this one on my Wenty caching circuit day. So many nice locations in these suburbs

Found at 12:05am.
As i have a busy day tomorrow and will be unlikely to have time to grab a cache for my streak I decided to take a detour on the way home and see if i could find this one at night.
I found a parking spot near the GZ and began my search. The street lights made the search less intimidating at night and thankfully it wasnt too cold.
The GPSr at first had me checking another spot but i stepped back, thought of the clue, and quickly found the cache.
Thanks.

I lost my pen walking here and had to sign with a stick and mud!?! Nice views.

Lovely spot to revisit. Don't know how I missed it last time as it was a quick find today. Thanks for the cache and the view!
Found this one after waiting for muggles to leave. Certainly feels like the neighbours are peering out the windows.
Quick find and sign.
Gets a favourite point for been my 100th find!

Had to backtrack a bit to get this one. Will work it!
Thanks for all the fun!

Had to wait for some locals to park and move on - but it was a quick find after that

TFTC!As I was having my initial look, someone came out of their house opposite. I tried to explain what I was up to, but she already knew. She said she would not tell me where it was, because it would ruin the fun. True. I found it pretty quickly. TFTC
No luck today. It was pretty wet out so I didn't spend too long looking. I'll come back at a better time. Nice view of the city though. Thanks!
Thanks for the cache! Flowers are really nice! Did this one with Mojoe and Quinney
Today we headed over to Leichhardt and Annandale, taking advantage of the cheap Sunday $2.70 per head capped Opal Card fares, to visit the two new caches that had appeared after our visit to the area last Sunday (Doh!). Also planned to visit the Whites Creek Wetlands for the Earthcache, and some Traditionals that we were to pass along the way. Utilised Bus/Train/Tram on the way over, and Tram/Train/Ferry/Bus for the return journey back to home. This was the 6th of 7 finds for the day.
After walking down the Winkworth Steps, and grabbing the cache located there, we next arrived at this one in View Street. Quickly located the cache in the second place we checked, TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. The view from View Street is not quite as grand as it's name would suggest, due to houses & tall vegetation, but you do get a glimpse of the top of the ANZAC Bridge a little further along the street from GZ.

Found on an afternoon walk with the geopartner. We seem to frequent View Street thanks to Cornersmith, but we rarely head to this end of the street. These homes really do have amazing views.
At last a quick fin ff!
I came out today to get three new caches near my house.
The first two were more difficult than what I expected.
I live so close to here but have never been in View St. Thanks

Why oh why is it always these nondescript type locales when you get muggled?! Had to double and even triple back on this one. Some local was having a terrific yarn to someone on the phone as she sat on her porch ... which happened to be only a few metres adjacent to GZ. She was on her dang phone for at least 50 minutes before I could slip in quietly and make the grab just before a whole bunch of kids spilled out of the house! Yikes! Careful of sight-lines on this one, GeoBuds.

A still early and dry morning, perfect for a walk around the many bays and parks which are beautifully connected
Found well

Fully P&G and very convenient to visit friends around the corner. Turned into a nice session with beers and snacks and a lovely pre-Christmas catch-up. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek
I can see why the call this place View Street! On the approach to GZ we quickly spied a likely caching location and within seconds the cache was found and signed. Took a couple of minutes to admire the views, and then we were straight back on the hunt for our last cache before a late lunch.
King_Cacherr I found your cache View Street Road Cache on 2/12/18, 2:56 pm. This is my find 2192 and find # 13 today. Found after a brief search. Thanks for the cache! TNSLLN
No pen to record our name. We visited a few times over the last few weeks with no luck but found it today with the clue of the photo.
Since November 5th I study Englisch at ILSC for 1 month. After the school I walked around and was searching some caches. Here I found the box quickly.
Thanks for the cache from Bonn, Germany

Just the one today after another fun afternoon in the studio audience of Whovians. As usual, much hilarity ensued, not all of which will make it to air - for any number of reasons! [:x]
After returning to *The Hademobile*, I decided to target a "nearby" cache. This one.
Navigated the streets - thanks Goggle - and parked about 40 metres from GZ.
On approach I instantly identified the likely hide type and as a result I quickly had the cache in hand.
Took a short distance to complete signing duties - good thing too due to the bike rider. Then replaced and off home.

This is a tricky spot to get to in the geomobile with one-way streets, no entry and parks across where you need to go. Once I'd finally made my way into View Street there were plenty of spots to leave the geomobile just far enough away from GZ.
I walked over and could see front doors of the houses opposite were open, hopefully just to let the breeze through on this really hot day and not to keep an eye on GZ.
Yes you do have to go on the road!
A bit of a search and I had CIH. I noticed an elderly lady walking her dog along the street. I'm not sure if she noticed me or not but didn't seem interested if she did.
SL & rehid the cache. Mission for the day accomplished.

I was hoping to be out of view, but a local across the road had me in his sights. Once he had collected his mail I could go for it. Took a bit of time but soon had CIH and then out of view. TFTC
Quick grab on the cycle home this evening. What a lovely street. TFTC Lewis_Allen #729
OCW Oldmorty to clean up some smileys and this was our first. Got a park right across from the GZ and a quick find with not many options for a hide. TFTC!
OCW morty8888 in the inner western suburbs. A quick park and grab despite the close presence of a muggle sitting opposite GZ in a car on the phone. TFTC Lewis_Allen.
