Thanks for the hide. Took us a while. Logging with deaf geocachers

Our first find for a Father's Day morning. We braved the wind and wild weather and had this location to ourselves. Tried all the harder spots before Dad looked a little closer at the spot the little bunny had claimed there was nothing, and lo and behold, the container was there. Left a TB for the next finder. TFTC.

Come back after yesterday to try and finish the rest along here. After a quick search we found the hide and we were able to sign log and put back in it's hiding spot. Thanks Saltie for placing for us to find.

Staying down near Ocean Grove for a few days so took the opportunity to look for a few more in this series while the weather wasn't great. Found this one a bit quicker than the others today, thanks for the cache Saltie.

Great view and great spot. TFTC

The last of 4 caches along the series this morning. 1 left to tackle next trip.Nice easy find on this one..Thanks saltie..

15:07Visiting Ocean Grove on a bright sunny day. Took the opportunity to add another smiley to the map on Blue Switch Day. Parking the geomobile to access the cache was a bit tricky. No Standing signs everywhere within 300m. Thanks to Saltie for the placement. 36960 Logged with Cachly.

Out for some caching with Jonescrew while camping for a few weeks at Ocean Grove. The weather was a bit ordinary today for a beach walk, even had a light shower. But at least we weren't getting burnt. The caches took much longer to find than expected with some clever tricky hides. Quicker one to find here. Tftc

Out caching with Larafolk on holidays. TFTC. Family affair today!!! 4 to 1 Big Sis winning.......granted she's done 1000 more caches than us....

A muggle right at gz. Dont mind us, were just looking for something he offered to help but we were ok. TBS located the cache soon enough TFTC

Staying in Ocean Grove for the weekend and Geocaching, walking and sightseeing was on the agenda today. This series covered all those bases so we set our Strava and headed off. Loved the series not so much the steps as we took the beach route. Lots of people out today, enjoying the weather and heaps of dogs out having fun either chasing balls or enjoying the water. Quick find here, nice hide TFTC

We are down here for a few days, this time staying on the Barwon Heads side of the bridge. We set off nice and early this morning to beat the hot weather and found a couple in Barwon Heads, then headed over here to this series. Once we found 10W the plan was J would walk to 9 whilst G would move the car. However there was no parking near 9 so he headed to 8 and found that one whilst J walked to 9 then up to GZ but no G?? Where is he? A quick phone call established he had to park near 8 and was now walking back to 9. Once he arrived, a quick find was made. Dropped TB. We then set off to 7. Confused yet? Theres more!

While the others are having a siesta, I decided to go out for a cache or 2.. TFTC - beautiful view!

Found. A nice high view from here

Great to walk a stretch that haven't ever been on before.

For Mick and cache in good nick - TFTC Saltie

Lovely morning to wander in and out along the coast with a caches to find as I progressed. Great that more caches are appearing on the Bellarine. My phone had the wanders here but when it settled a quick find ensued Certainly enjoyed my wander TFTC Saltie

Always a good day when out caching and finding them.
Thanks for the cache Saltie

Found with Moonb1. There were muggles ensconced but I did the distracting and they never saw a thing.
Thanks for the cache Saltie .

Today we headed down to OG to try our hand at all the latest cache placements since our last visit. Amazing how many newly released caches there has been in such a short time. A bonus for the caching community and us of coarse.
Such a lovely day for a walk, who would have guessed it was winter with the blue skies and sunny afternoon. Perfect conditions for a walk up and down the beach tracks searching for this series.
Thanks Saltie for the cache placement.

Found in the first spot we looked which was not last.

Found on a trip to Mexico City from the town north of the border….

Thanks Saltie and clear skies from TeamAstro. ️ Cache the planet!

SA’s Leap Year Event - GCA1DNA - keep the date free - 29th February 2024. Keep looking up!

Cold winds, sprinkling of rain, but no weather is bad enough to stop one from caching……..Thanks Saltie for placing this cache and contributing to this great game. Happy trails, Deanside

A quick find after a bit of slog up from the beach, but the view was great and the find made, so happy days. Got a TB to boot. Thanks Saltie for the cache.

We had a lovely walk along the beach on a stormy afternoon.
Found this one pretty quick and signed the log .
We loved the view from up here! TFTC

Found it

Another fantastic viewing spot. Thanks for bringing us here! Left a trackable

On a glorious sunny day, we went walking and caching while staying at Queenscliff.
After a paddle through the water from the previous cache, we made this one a lot harder than it should have been. Having looked in that place previously, a better look found the cache. Thanks Saltie.

Saw the alert pop up, but I saw it too late to beat the resident FTF maestro, AusFox;. Spoke to him on the phone on the way to this cache, and he already had the first two and was signing the third of the three. I was still in St Leonards, so too far away.

When we arrived at the cache, there was a muggle with her beautiful old Golden Retriever. We had a bit of a chat, and the doggo had a lovely pat. She then left, and we made a nice quick find and returned the cache when more muggles arrived on the scene.

The cache, as you would expect, was in superb condition.

Thank you Saltie for this Traditional cache.
