Hello whitewebbs thank you for the cache
This cache was quickly found.
An interesting grave yard.
Today I was caching with EeePees on Bruny Island. The weather didn't look that great when I left home but turned out to be an ok day.
As usual caching with EeePees was another great day.

hi whitewebbs, and thanks for the cache; found today with AlbyDangles on our most excellent Bruny escapade, caught the first ferry over this morning, and dodged most of the weather.
I've driven past this one a couple of times, missed it the first time, and no time, gotta catch a ferry, on the 2nd occasion.
Ample time today though, so we stopped and found the cache, and studied the information board here for the cemetery.
Thanks for bringing us here.
cheers, EPs

Found this one quite easily , however as I was trying to replace it someone parked over the road and took a very long time to get through the driveway gate. It was about the only other car we encountered for miles! Very interesting history here. Thank you.
We were driving while my geocaches addicted mum looked at her map and we stopped we found it with in 15 seconds.

This was our first cache on Bruny island, a nice stop here and a quick find.
With the new year at hand JL Rockstar and myself decided to head down south from Launceston to Bruny Island to attend two event: A CITO and a normal event that followed.
Along the way there and back we stopped on the odd occasion to pick up some caches.
All in all a great day out to start the year and a total of 22 caches were found.

Did a circular tour of North Bruny today and picked up this cache on the way. TFTC.
Day 6 of my short trip to Tasmania from Adelaide was mostly spent in the channel area and Bruny Island and provided a little time to find a few targeted caches.
I was passing by this one and stopped for a quick find. Unfortunately I didn’t have a pen at the time and there wasn’t one in the cache, so it is a photo log this time.
Thanks whitewebbs for the cache.

Staying near Cloudy Bay, but on a trip to the North Bruny today. Nice lunch at the Lennon Memorial Hall/Visitor Centre, then on to the heritage walk to the point and back along the beach. Learnt some local history besides getting a cache here. Then back to Killora and the little early pioneer cemetery at Shelter Cove for this cache, and a visit to the old WW I Quarantine Station where we discovered the names of both my grandfather's listed as spending time here on their return to Australian soil.

Tftc staying a few days in Bruny with our grandchildren thought we would continue our search for some more caches came across this one great spot
Found with the geo-crew during a drive up to Dennes Point. A very interesting spot which we probably would have not noticed if not for the cache. Many thanks whitewebbs
A nice easy find in a spot I had no idea existed. Thanks Whitewebbs. I will visit the quarantine station in a couple of days.
Our first cache on the island. Today we are going to try and do all of them over here. What a peaceful little stop. Tftc
After visiting the south island two weeks ago we decided to come back today and look for the caches placed on North Bruny. Very historic cemetery, impressed with the research done on the burials. Thanks for the cache whitewebbs.
Yet another interesting cache and yes the place is worthy of a cache. Thanks for the history!
Went to Bruny Island to replace/pick up Cape Bruny Lighthouse cache and decided we couldn't leave the island until we found this cache. Pity the TB has not been logged as it isn't in the cache. We dodged the rain. We went to do Captain Bligh's treasure but that is a longish walk and the weather wasn't holding out for us.
Thanks for the cache whitewebbs and a favourite point.

Today my friend, Runsis, & I ventured over to Bruny Island for a few hours doing a bit of sightseeing & caching...
It was interesting reading the names, ages & in some cases how people died on the information board connected to this cemetery...
A quick find today...

On the island holidaying for a few days, taking the opportunity to find a few new caches that have appeared since my last visit. I didn’t notice the old graveyard last time I was here, despite driving past it a couple times.
Was a quick find in a quiet area of the island.

Found easily, cache in good nick. We’re enjoying exploring this quieter end of the island, thanks for bringing us here. TNLNSL.
While on a holiday in Tasmania with our grandson, we were exploring Bruny Island when we found this little gem. Thanks whitewebbs
Tassie Trip Day 81 - After some fun in sun and some great caching we needed to make the trip to the top of the island to finish collecting the cache that can be collected for us on this wonderful island.
We arrived at the GZ and a search soon revield that wonerful hiding place and the log was signed and it all returned to that lovely spot of hiding
Thanks whitwebbs for showing us this wonderful area to enjoy our caching in.

On our two month travelling trip through Austrialia, we are enjoying all the wonderful places and scenery. We will stop on the way to visit some nice caches as well. This one we could find.

#755, 2018-11-05 at 12:04, TFTC. Geokid won this one. I was focused on the hint.
We were finishing off our northern loop and this was our last cache before the one at the ferry. SSR slid around the corner like a scene out of The Dukes of Hazzard and pulled up in a cloud of dust right next to GZ. We reached down and scooped up the cache and signed it quickly and took off before any one knew we'd even stopped.
Thanks for another cache whitewebbs. p.s. some of the above may be slightly exaggerated [:o)]
It was a toss-up between Bruny Island and Mt Field today. In the end Bruny Island won out, although a few times during the day I muttered ‘should have gone to Mt Field.’
Stainless steel rat picked me at 6.15am with the plan of coffee at the ferry terminal and over on the 7.30am ferry. We arrived a little earlier than expected and drove straight on to the 7am ferry. That was great except we’d not had coffee! [)]
We headed south, once we hit the island, to beat the tourists stopping briefly for Alonnah five-0 for SSR to find, and then at the shop we grabbed coffee and sandwiches from a couple of nutcase women who obviously thought their continued sarcasm was funny. This kind of behaviour happens a lot when I’m out with SSR!
After a bit of investigation of some new caches, we decided a 5km paddle in the blow-up boat was just too much, so made a beeline for the lighthouse at Cape Bruny and from there worked our way back north, catching the 5.30pm ferry back.

On our way back to the ferry we just had to clean up this one, once getting to GZ it was a short search and the cache was found in no time at all and our names added to the logbook.
Myself and Goose had talked about a Bruny Island trip for a bit now and with the publication of some new caches the other day the trip was brought forward in our caching schedule.
So today I was our of the house before 6am and ready to pick the goose up at 6.15, with a good drive down to the ferry we just made it on to the 7am sailing, being the last car on.
After a full day making our way round the island, getting some nice finds and a few DNF's well not DNF's we gave up on a few before we event got to GZ, we managed to get a space on the 5.30 ferry back and were home before 7 for once
Thanks to all the CO for the caches.

A quick stop, found easily. Thanks for the cache. Enjoying our second trip to Bruny.
Created a cache just for this TB. This TB wishes to be collected by the FTFinder and placed in a newly created cache.
