It’s gone again. I’m going to think hard about having to replace this every 6 months. I not the security cameras in the area have changed as well maybe they are watching 24x7
Haha, it was just in front of us, but we searched through a lot of garbage near it!
Located at 5:54pm. #1271.

Delayed log..... After an epic listen, memory recall and log from Fontainebleau, it's taken almost two weeks to log what was our next find on a Friday afternoon post-work geocaching walk. Under the circumstances this was the perfect spot for this cache and there won't be a lot of security seeing what's right under their nose. A slightly more laid-back verging on upbeat from NY this time and a nice walk around the shopping centre. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek
After hearing it had been replaced I returned to avenge last weekend's DNF. Simple find where I expected it to be. Unluckily however the adjacent liquor store had run out of my favourite beer. Thanks Old Man Emu.
No luck for me today, given the hint I was pretty sure I was searching in the correct place though I checked downstairs as well. Oh well. Thanks Old Man Emu.
A muggle incident was reported. So tonight I took a replacement and whilst grabbing a few supplies replaced the cache. No coin included this time.
Cache safely !

An afternoon of Covid safe geocaching in my LGA took me around some interesting caches in the North Rocks area.
Easy find with a great hint! TFTC Old Man Emu.

Quick find while I waiting for a script from the chemist, loved the hide and clue thanks.
This one of the few places that stocks my favourite at a reasonable price. Parked very close and had to wait a few minutes until GZ was deserted. I tried to flip the coin and I guess it was tails. Did what's become my usual program of listening to the song before coming - a simple song of a weary traveller. Thanks Old Man Emu.
Thanks for this Old Man Emu....love your work.....Lunalovegood72 and I felt like we were part of a secret cold war spy dead drop with this one.....great hint btw makes sense once you see it and I had a little chuckle....tftc
I really want sure where this one would be and a quick scan really didn't help. After wandering around a little I could see exactly what the clue meant and there was the cache. Signed and replaced

TFTC. A nice quick find after travelling from the Hunter Valley to visit my daughter in Sydney,
Just checking a few after the massive rain. It's still here.
Be safe everyone.

Went to the correct level this time and made a quick find. Another great Urban cache... TFTC!
Stopped here on our way home from an event with ilook4geo. Seem to remember one here previously so headed for the right place first. No problem finding it and the log was soon signed wth both names.
Thanks go to Old Man Emu for this cache placement.

Happy to pick up a few caches today with goingplaces2. This one was a success and log was signed before being replaced as found. Not a hard one to find and was very quickly done. TFTC.

Initially I looked at the right level, only to make my way to the wrong one and spend a lot of time fruitlessly searching for the hide. Once I made it back to the correct level I finally made the find.

Quick find with Bougie Rogue,Everest high, and Brew. Came after a breakfast catch up.
Cheers for the cache!

Easy when you're at the right level. OCW Brewmaker, Morry9 and Boogie Rogue. TFTC Old Man Emu
Final find for the day. A tricky hide, but easy once at the right level. A great day OCW EH, BR & M9. TFTC
A nice easy find, but because I used the nearby carpark it seemed only fair that I should purchase a case of Durif! TFTC.
Had no obvious place intially and then had a look at the hint and comments from a previous log and the light bulb came on.
Thanks Old Man Emu.
Thanks Old Man Emu.
Quick find. Less than 15 seconds. I would not like to spend 40 minutes on this one. Thanx
Could’ve sworn it wasn’t there when I looked before but after coming back found it in less than 2 mins.
Great hide . Fun find!
A few muggles about.
Carefully put the logbook back.
At some point the plastic cover over the logbook will need to be replaced. Its hardening up and the edges of the logbook are creating small holes in the plastic.
Thank you!
Great activity to be engaged in whilst I waited for my car to be washed!

Found with [@coybear2000](http://coord.info/PR9547H). We were in the area and had a bit of time so we went for this one. We arrived at GZ and started searching and after a bit of fruitless time C had a suggestion, we changed tactic and C had CIH. Log signed and all replaced. TFTC.
In the area with [@trodectus](http://coord.info/PR8JTE0) and had some time to kill, so we attempted the cache, got near GZ and pondered likely hiding spots, but nothing suitable. Trying a hunch, we changed levels and quickly located the cache. Log signed and returned. TFTC
Good hide. Took 2 goes at this one. Pity that GPS's don't work vertically too. TFTC.
Went where I thought it would be, but no luck. Too many muggles to feel comfortable searching further
A classic hide, but very well executed.
Found late, by torchlight.
Loving the themed caches in this series.

I checked the cache today, the log is still fine in a waterproof baggy and the cache is dry. The coin is also still there !

Just the one today. I'd spent parts of yesterday and today invigorated solving some puzzles in a series I'd put aside for a while. I'll collect some of them tomorrow...
But today I need to return some booze to the shop - overstocked for the wedding. Parked in their car park, of course.
After quickly getting my refund I wandered towards this cache - not so far away. The question is "What level?"
Of course I picked the wrong one first up. Once I'd decided it had to be the other it was a quick find.
Completed signing duties and replaced, then back home.

A stop at the shoppingcenter and good occasion for grabbing the two new caches around. The angle is good enough so that they could not see me . TFTC!

I needed to pick my daughter up from a sleepover, so decided to explore the area beforehand. I jogged up to the shopping centre, starting on the wrong level before re-adjusting, and once at GZ made a quick find. TNLNSL TFTC

Found after a brief search having bagged Sydney Geocache Relocated!
The magnet has come loose but still works if replaced carefully.

Only had time for one more find before heading home. Thankfully everything fell into place and I quickly found the well themed container. Added my name to the log and rushed off...

OCW morty8888 on a lovely Spring day and I'm so glad he came along as I certainly had the blinker son today. Today's mission was to grab a few of OME's recent offerings.
No luck here and we contacted the CO who I note on arriving home has disabled the cache.

I’ve got a solid report of it being muggled. So disabling until I check it out. I wonder if Security at North Rocks Shopping Centre are onto these ? I’ll do a few simple replacements and see what happens.
Work had been cancelled because of the rain once I got there so took the opportunity to grab these public carpark caches while it wasn’t busy on the way back. Quick find. Surprised it was set inside but it was. Tftc
Streak Day #2255 - Out this way with Dave8153 for our daily find, was a quick find once we were on the right level. TFTC

We remember we've been in this area before, but the cache(s) found then must have been archived. This was a quick find in an obvious location.

A lovely sunny morning on the first day of spring.
Parked really close to this one. Flipped a tails/temple
I’ll have to make a new playlist featuring the songs from this series

I wasted way too much time here looking for the right level. Oh well, a nice view from GZ.

I liked the container and didn't get too wet grabbing it as we were able to park right next to GZ. Thanks OME
Ah, I remember this place. It was nice to be able to park close and sign the log in the comfort of our vehicle as it had just started to rain.
Thanks again Old Man Emu.
Thanks again Old Man Emu.
Day 3 of the streak challenge. Nicely hidden, there used to be another one in this area but not in as good a spot. TFTC
Another deja vu cache. This one was nicely placed and easy to find. The plastic bag for the log took off from my hands in the wind, so I go a little more exercise going down the stairs to retrieve it! TFTC
TFTC. SL. TNLN. ️ ️ ️ . Tricky one. So clumsy myself. I had yo look there twice before I found it! Lol.
