Thank you for hosting this geocaching event! The date of the event has passed. We automatically archive events after 30 days (60 days for Mega- and Giga-Events). Attendees can still log archived events, log trackables, and share their experiences.

01/01/2022 - 2.10pm - 1st & only find for the day.
NGS was kind & was my chauffeur again today. Look us a bit longer to get there than expected as we took the scenic, scenic route. Oh well, we missed the road we needed but decided it was no big deal as we were at the beginning time of the event rather than the end.
It was lovely to catch up with everyone today, some who had attended the event on the previous day with a few more that hadn't. Chats were had & some stories were exchanged while others got answers for a nearby mystery cache or 2. The weather was much more clement with a breeze/wind to make things feel a bit cooler. Photo's done & away we headed. Our trip home was just the scenic route rather than the double scenic route as no turnoffs were missed, can't believe we missed the road on the way over ... we were chatting & we were going a bit too briskly and had passed the road by the time the penny dropped for both of us. It did bring up another time we missed a corner in central Victoria ... that missed corner took us way, way, way out of the way from where we should have been ... we circled right round that town! At that time we didn't have online maps to see we really should have just done a uey & been done with it! ... Maybe things will get better & events & going out finding will become a normal thing again? I hope I can find more than the 2 events I managed last year! One New Years Day & one New Years Eve ...
Thanks for event Elizabeth (& Darren) [;D]

Attended with PapaGrouch. Had a nice sit and chat in the park and enjoyed some afternoon tea. Then afterwards we headed off with a small group to do a few T5 tree caches. Thanks for organising this surefoot24.

Arrived about 10 minutes late but still in time for some socialising and nibblies.
Headed off with a small group to pick up a few caches after the event.
Nice to see everyone on a rather warm day.
Thanks for the event surefoot24.
Let's hope 2022 continues to be as perfect as today.

Although it was a very hot day a southerly breeze sprang up about half an hour before the time of the event and it was cooler and much more bearable by the time people started arriving. The company mixed and shared caching experiences in a relaxed and friendly way. I’m glad these events are being supported so well despite the weather.

It's always good to meet up with other Geocachers. The sea breeze was pleasant also. Thanks for that Surefoot24.

Yes

Arrived at 2:13 PM GAFF1.
A small gathering and then we were graced by a visit from Leesa, Kerry & Zoe arriving on their bikes - with no incident this time! A good start to the new year and we hope that it continues like this for all of us.
Thanks surefoot24.

A bonus {FTF} for me at todays event. It was great meeting up with people we met this time last year. Thank you surefoot24 for organising today's event. Thank you Darren for our lovely afternoon tea. I forgot to ask have you heard how jebjeb are going?
