#20789 - 2:39:34 PM; In Tasmania for a couple of weeks to visit family and friends. Arrived in Hobart last night and today was free for some sightseeing and an opportunity to collect a couple of outstanding LGAs. Managed eleven from twelve today and added Sorell and Glenorchy to the LGA found list. Kingborough is on the agenda for tomorrow, then its only the islands to go to complete the set. After adding the Sorell LGA to the found list, headed to Richmond and while the geohoney browsed the shops, I collected some of the local caches, including this one. TFTC 63ROOS Smile

Today we headed to Richmond for a gander. We think we came here back in 2009 but have hazy memories . We enjoyed a thorough walk around today, it was freezing cold and skies were grey. We may need to come back again before we leave Tassie.Had a fab coffee and cake at the bakery and enjoyed a pack lunch. Left camp at 9am and back home at 5.30pm so it was certainly a full day. Thank you to all the kindly CO for placing and maintaining caches for us to enjoy.Nice quick find here as we walked along the river. TFTC

A day in and around the Derwent Valley, with such a variety of ways to earn some smiley tokens for our geo-map of Tassie. A nice quick find just before beginning our "journey" back to Hobart.

Thanks to 63ROOS for adding this cache to the gameboard.

Found on a trip to Tasmania from South Australia to visit family and friends and find a few geocaches.

Today was a big day, with nearly 500km covered. The main aim was the 'Something Smells Fishy' wherigo series, with a few other targeted caches along the way. The plan was to then head up to the Central Highlands before returning via a circuitous route to pick up a few more specific caches of interest.

I got away quite early, but unfortunately the fishing pole series took a lot longer than I had anticipated. I almost pulled the pin on the Central Highlands, but it was such a beautiful day, I thought I should continue with the plan, albeit a slightly cut back version.

All in all I was travelling and caching for almost 14 hours, resulting in about 50 cache finds - not a lot for the time and distance, but they were mostly specifically targeted caches that I was keen to find.

This one was found without any difficulty and the cache and contents are in good condition.

Thanks 63ROOS for the cache.

I’m in Tasmania for a week-long geocaching holiday with some New Zealand geocachers. Today is day 4. I travelled from Hobart up to Launceston, doing some caching on the way with Net61 and SuperNanny and occasionally meeting up with the others along the way.

This was our fourth find of the day on the way to Launceston. It didn’t take too long before Net61 found the cache as per the hint.

Thanks for the cache Smile

After strolling around town, we saw that this cache was not too far away from where we parked the geovan so we did the quick stroll down the river to grab it

Found this cache while on holidays traveling around Tasmania.
Today we're exploring Richmond. After seeing the sights in town we ventured out to do a few of the outlying caches.
No luck finding it first up so we scrolled through a few old logs. In them we discovered we had to search a few meters away from where I was.
I should have checked there first as it was the obvious spot.
