15:06After arriving at this morning's planting event in the middle of the island by public transport, I had a few offers of rides... so I jumped in with SteMicMitSar to, appropriately, do the new Landcare Adventure Labs...And visit a few piers. In between a couple of those, I was just able to get to this cache despite the family on the beach very close by. Fortunately, I was just out of their sight.Thanks, jupiterpearl. Cleverly placed.#9179

Couple of Finnish vanlifers traveling around this beautiful Australia with Matilda the campervan. Stopping here and there to enjoy life without any plans.After getting everything set up and visiting some friends, Mntti1 and I began our travels couple months ago. This weekend we decided to visit Phillip island. This morning we took a little walk around inlet and then visited here. Luckily this one was a quick find and muggle anywhere near. Thanks for the cache!

Streak Day 6/366With the weather turning out today, multiple beach trips ensued, as well as lots of games out in the backyard. With the sun setting, we decided to head to Rhyll to pick up a couple of lone caches that we didn't have smileys on in the area.Parking near GZ, an interest was taken in the nearby playground, allowing us to pick up the two AdLab stages here before zeroing in on the cache. Once our GPS settled itself down, the cache was promptly located.Tftc jupiterpearl

Another nice quick find as we looked around the area.We had the opportunity to visit Phillip Island and visit a number of places we have enjoyed many times in the past. A bonus was to see a number of new caches and varying varieties on the island as well as quite a few new Adventure Labs. Time well spent!Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache jupiterpearl.**SKI Pair****

Catching up with logs.With the weather predicted to be good today we had decided earlier in the week to head down to Phillip Island and try our luck there as it has been over three years since our last visit. Although the weather didn't keep up it's end of the bargain as it was quite overcast for the first bit of the day and the wind was absolutely relentless we still had a fantastic day.We were here doing the nearby ad lab point and weren't going to leave a trad so close by without having a look for it and we are glad that we did. This time we think that the weather was in our favour as when we got to gz there were very few muggles around, we feel that this could be different on a better weather day. This made searching quite easy and happily we located the cache in the fourth place we looked and our name has been entered into the log book and everything returned as found.Many thanks jupiterpearl for the hide

21431. Day 2 of our little Phillip Island Adventure. Looked like being the best day of the week so we loaded the doggies into their trailer, jumped on the bikes and headed out for some caching between Cowes and Rhyll and then more around town in the afternoon. Great to get a ride in although it was very very windy.We had a look at both piers and then the wooden carving and the monument to the early seafaring explorers and then came to this cache. Added our names to the log and made our way out of town.Thanks jupiterpearl

Thanks goes to jupiterpearl for this cache.
We were enjoying an afternoon wander today doing a few Ad Lab locations and a few traditionals. It was a delightful day with sunny skies and about 21 degrees.
The ocean was pretty flat and a few boats were out enjoying some fishing.
A coffee from the General Store came in handy here as we enjoyed the afternoon.
Plenty of action on the water with tboats here and there and the Water Police out and about chatting to some folks.

After moping about the house for a few days last week i decided that i really needed to get away for a while. Phillip Island is one of my favorite places for a beach break so i decided to head down here and remind myself what the ocean looks like, its been far too long. I booked some pet friendly accommodation for a few days and then threw together a list of caches to tackle on the way down but didnt make any plans for the island itself. Island time doesnt need plans Smile. I arrived last night and today i will do some exploring with a light serving of caches on the side.

After tooling around Cowes this morning i took a leisurely drive over to Rhyll. I parked in front of this magnificent sculpture and thought, that looks like an excellent spot for a cache, which prompted me to go looking for this one. Quite a quick find in this lovely location, the cache is in excellent condition. Thanks again.

Out on my own with staying on the Island with friends. We dined close by and then went for a walk around Rhyll. Never been to this part of the Island before. Nice easy find. Thanks for the cache jupiterpearl

A last minute plan had been hatched to make my way to QOGM. Very little planning had been done but a very rough outline was in place and it was going to be a day by day trip.

Starting today at Day 1. Leaving home via Phillip Island and out to Gippsland.

A nice quick find between adventure lab locations.

Thanks jupiterpearl for adding this cache to the worldwide collection for us all to enjoy.

*Found on the 2 Sep 2023 @ 4:37 pm.*
*Cache find # 15037.*

Today, I headed down to the Island for a couple of events, some TDOC23 caches and whatever else that was around.
It was getting nearer to the end of the day but there were still a few more caches to find, I headed to this one next.
I had now started on this series so I continued with it.
After doing the first AdLab, and then making my way to the second, I stopped off at GZ for this one and was able to make a quick find.

**Thanks to jupiterpearl for keeping the game going by placing this cache.**

Somehow missed logging a couple from our night away! We booked a night away in Rhyll with our puppy Violet as a trial run for a longer trip at the end of this month. After a fantastic night, where she slept really well and didn’t wake up till I got up, we had breakfast and packed up and set off to do some caching around the island. This one was next. The GPS q lead us on a merry dance around all the works being done near GZ lol Cache was a nice easy find

Very quiet cold by sunny winter afternoon here. After finding the nearby Ad Lab I saw this was close so while the husband kept the engine running I quickly made the find which was thankfully outside the temporary fencing. Thank you
 
07-Aug-23
We were checking out a nearby AdLab WP and had to look for this one while we were here.
Initially we thought it might be affected by the temporary fencing, but no such problem existed.
The cache was found just at the base.
Thanks jupiterpearl for giving us another reason to visit this location. It looks like a really nice place.
Chiefton!!!

We always enjoy a visit to Rhyll and with the tide out we nearly had the place to ourselves apart for a few fishing folk on the pier.

Thank you for the cache.

With work being very quiet my wife said why don’t you go geocaching on the Island for 5days and stay at the Holiday house, so I didn’t argue with her as she’s the Boss, So here I am finding caches around the Island enjoying my time off.
Signed log thanks to all the cache owners for placing these caches.

AdLab locations 3 & 4 done now. A gorgeous day that is perfect for geocaching..frmen1 and I made the quick find. Had to be sneaky as workers fixing up the playground were nearby. TFTC

Cheers and great fish and chips
 
04-Jul-23
We are staying for a few days on Phillip Island and enjoying revisiting some old haunts, and discovering new ones too. Neither of us had been to Rhyll before, so this was put on the list of places to visit.

We are enjoying finding traditionals associated with the Ad Lab locations. This was a straightforward find, with no muggles around to hinder our search. Thanks for placing for our fun and enjoyment.

PS I wish I'd read about the great fish and chips here before this, as the ones we had the other day (elsewhere) were a bit underwhelming.

Found it before a whale trip around the island. Quick find

This was a quick find while doing the nearby piers Ad Lab. It was cold and rain was also causing problems. So the beach was deserted as we made the find and signed the log. Thanks to jupiterpearl for the cache.

Out and about with Tizz13 for another one of our weekly caching adventures, there are always plenty of laughs while we are turning caches into smiles.

We had unfinished business down at Phillip Island and the plan was to walk the Cape Woolamai loop.

This is one of the caches found today. I have fished from this pier several times.

Thanks jupiterpearl for the cache.

It was a quick visit to the island today but managed a couple of adventure labs and a couple of traditionals. I am no stranger to Rhyll as I visit each year to go whale watching. I was astounded to see the great improvement to the fishing club jetty since my last visit- very impressive! The cache was a quick find today.. thanks for placing the cache jupiterpearl

A quiet Saturday afternoon on this end of the Island tempted us out to do the three caches out here. It gave me the opportunity to see the ‘improvements’ to the boat ramp and the jetty. Boy a lot of money has been spent here! I asked some people what they were looking at. There were a couple of big sting rays gliding around. I could barely see them until on went between the two sides of the ramp over the yellow markings where it was silhouetted against the markings. Great experience!
I found this cache while I was walking between the boat ramp and the jetty in a relatively easy place to access and hidden exactly where I would have hidden it, in a spot that seemed to be made for it! As you say, JupiterPearl, there aren’t many caches in this area of The Island. Thank you!
 
07-May-23
This was our first find of the morning. Luckily we aren’t deterred by inclement weather - the wind and rain certainly added an extra challenge to this find! Luckily Broesi found it quickly!
 
07-May-23
This was our first cache this morning and I must admit it was hard to enjoy it! The rain came sideways, the antarctic winds howling through the pier's pylons. We bravely searched, found and signed the logbook, persevered on through a couple of adlab stations and then headed towards the inlet walk. Thanks Jupiterpearl, great spot, great cache.

Nice to have a reason to come to Rhyll and check out the new jetty. Easy find after a nice walk along the beach. Tftc

Saw these geocaches get released yesterday but had sport and couldn't get out of it to rush off here. Knowing I have a busy weekend, I thought I would head down here straight after work. The only thing working against that plan was the weather. It was raining the whole way driving down and even when on the Island, the weather never got better than a slight drizzle.

Between getting the answers to the Adventure Lab here, I detoured to this one. While walking up, I took a guess at where it would be hidden and pleased that I was right for a change.

Thanks for the cache Jupiter Pearl
