Nice relaxing walk, cache all good.Thankyou for placing and maintaining the cache series and allowing me to discover a new area.TFTCGeneric overly-detailed summation of the day:Weather report: sunny and clear, not really any windCaching conditions: muggles all preoccupied with Anzac day, GPS satellites talking nicely to my phoneSnack situation: poor - Anzac day meant lots of places were closed so I settled for some hummus and cheese and biscuits for lunch. Despite being hungry I did not eat my apples. Maybe tomorrow?Public toilet status: Plenty of toilets all throughout my cachescapades today. The worst toilet was at a BP, it was probably the dirtiest toilet I have ever seen, and I've travelled in some weird places. Best toilet was at Summerland point park.Munzee distractions: loads. Probably found the most munzees that I have in a while, but was surprised that there were some places without any munzees at all.Weirdos encountered: 4 drunks stumbling along the footpath as I walked up the street to grab dinner.("`-''-/").___..--''"`-._ `6_ 6 ) `-.

Reperio 10:35Day 5 of our Newcastle geocaching escapade, and Master Vitruvius and I headed towards the Belmont and Swansea areas before making our way slowly towards Sydney. It had been a while since I had been back to Murrays Beach, so it was great to explore the area again and pick up the 4 caches here.Gratias pontfamilyAs a well spent day brings happy sleep, a well spent life brings happy death - LDV

We have travelled from Sydney's Northern Beaches to the Central Coast for a five day midweek holiday, staying at the Norah Head Holiday Park (caravan park) in Norah Head. Having already found most of the caches around Norah Head and the areas surrounding Tuggerah & Budgewoi Lakes on previous holiday visits, except for a few new ones and the odd DNF needing a visit/revisit, on this trip we will be concentrating our efforts in areas to the north of Lake Munmorah. Planning to explore areas around the southern & eastern shores of Lake Macquarie, including Wyee, Gwandalan, Doyalson North, Cams Wharf, Murrays Beach, Pinny Beach, Caves Beach, and Swansea. Photos will be uploaded to logs on our return to home base.Today we spent the morning caching at Cams Wharf, Murrays Beach, and Galgabba Point. Then it was a visit to The Entrance, before returning to the caravan park for a late lunch and a swim in the pool. This was the 5th of 10 finds for the day (day 3), and 35th find of the holiday.After finding "Murrays Beach #2" we turned around and walked northward along the pathway to this one, and it was a nice quick find on arrival at GZ. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC pontfamily.Find #6526

Came down here today to have lunch at the Murray's Restaurant. Decided to come for a walk along the water & wandered if there was any cache's nearby.
As soon as I opened the app I noticed we were right on top of one.
Nice quick find on this beautiful sunny day.
Signed the log & put back.

(5 of 7 today)

Decided to head up north again for some finds. Unfortunately, the day didn't go as well as planned, especially with a long DNF to start the day. And it wasn't the only one!
My cache blindness seems to be getting worse some days - was probably all over them. Oh well.

However, I did manage to make seven finds before heading home. That keeps the stats moving.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Decided to finish my caching day here - hoping for two quick finds where I parked and one more on the way back to the highway.

Quick find here as the cache was out in the open.
Signed the log and then replaced in a better spot within a few centimetres.

Find #1748
Had a quick cursory look and found nothing so tried again with a bit of a deeper look and found it straight away. Lovely little walk down from the cafe and what a wonderful place for a picnic.

Container in good condition. Log book dry. TFTCSL Thanks for placing pontfamily

Came down for a family breakfast at the cafe. After breakfast went for a short walk to find the couple caches in the area. This took longer than it should have as I was being too much of a troll. Walked away and came back a few minutes later to make a quick find. Not sure how I missed it the first time. TFTC

No problems with this cache, once I approached from the right side. Thanks for a most enjoyable and peaceful foreshore walk pontfamily, spoilt only by missing out on one smiley ... but then, you can't have it all in life.
 
02-Aug-22
No problems here, with no-one in sight and a cache placed very generously. What a top location it is here, even better with sunshine and light winds. Thanks for placing this cache, we really enjoyed the walk along the water and this find.

After a wet weekend, and the first day of school holidays, we were keen for an outing and some caches. We ended up with 5 finds, including a pair of FTFs, a great afternoon!
I checked both sides, well under too, before I heard Samuel question my visual acuity, I had crawled straight past the cache. It stands out quite a bit as it is hidden, being more troll-like will help its longevity.... TFTC!

*FTF* Saw this early this morning, and Yeah Nah. Continued on with puzzle solving, or more like trying to solve. 11:40, and scouting around close to home, and this one still not claimed. Oh well, why not, rain hasn't been that bad this morning. So on arrival, it is bucketing down, and pretty well for the whole time I searched it continued. Must have looked a sorry site from the luxury of of the onlooking houses. I missed the container first look, and searched the whole structure before coming back to where I started, and there it is. Once signed, I looked out at the lake, and Pulbah Island had disappeared. TFTC.
