Taking a break as I don't have the time to complete needed maintenance at the moment.
Found, but log is saturated and water inside container. Have emptied water and added a new dry log in a baggie. Wet log is still there too.
The family Found it but its a little wet and nothing to record on but get discovery
there is blue ink spilling out of it, so i couldnt log it in person but yeah its done
Many thanks for the cache. Found whilst on a visit from South Africa Great clue however the plastic bottle is broken letting in water whenever it rains which seems to be every day. Beautiful area and very close to my cousin's house.
Log is mush, managed to sign the bag but I had a really nice walk along here and my apple watch got all excited that I was "exercising".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 10:19Day 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.Log is soaked and unsignable.Gratias pontfamilyAs a well spent day brings happy sleep, a well spent life brings happy death - LDV
#7698Out on an afternoon caching trip on the lakeside, clearing up some non smilies. Quick find here, container is sopping wet and unsignable. Pic in lee737s log.Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache pontfamily
GAP YEAR BIG LAP - PART 2: THE ROAD TRIP - Day 13 After a big day around Lake Macquarie then just visiting Caves Beach, we stopped here on the way back to our campsite at Olney Forest. A few stumps to check at this nice calm lake. The cache had a handy aerial to pull it out with once found but a blue felt pen has leaked inside & the log was quite wet. Managed to sign still & returned to its hide.#3792 @ 1745hTFTC pontfamily ??
After meeting a pup called Molly taking her person for a walk, I made a quick find here.The log is a soggy mess and I'd used the only spare bit of paper I had on the previous cache. TFTC
#10160 (8 of 9 today)Thought Id grab a few today, so headed up to the Central Coast for some finds. Noticed some new caches had been placed near Murrays Beach, so with seven hides all in walking distance, made that my target. After finding them I snaffled my final two unfound caches at Murrays to complete the day.###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###Ive picked this series off when up this way caching at Swansea and Belmont. Time to finish it off.Parked near this one and walked to it along the water. Spotted a logical location but it was empty. Checked the hint. Yes, here. Then I spotted it in the grass. Made the grab and completed signing duties. Then back and replaced in accordance with the hint.Time to walk to my final target of the day.SLTNLNTFTC
Found it lying on the ground. Quite soaked but log just dry enough inside its bag. Put back where I think it should be. TFTC
Found, with shaneo58. We stayed close to home doing caches around the south end of the lake as it was raining most of the day, so we could dart out and back into the car minimizing how soaked we would get. Great hint, but the cache was on the groundSigned log and Cache replaced where should have been..**Thanks For The Cache** pontfamily.This makes the 8th cache of 11 for today making a grand total of 4300 at 1:55PM on this Wednesday the 20th of December in the Year 2023
Found this in not so good weather. But a man has to do what a man has to do. TFTC pontfamily
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 4th of 10 finds for the day (day 3), and 34th find of the holiday.With the geomobile parked at the disabled "Murrays Beach #3" cache we walked southward 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 #6525
Where is the bloody wire there. That’s what I was told to say by a teacher so I had no option but to say that even though that wasn’t this cache. TFTC
TFTC and a nice quick find on a beautiful spring day. I was out geocaching with friends and had lunch at the restaurant afterwards.
Sit down at the bench and look to your left, there you will see some conveniently cut trees.
Almost as nice as a place as my last find at Point Morisset was to sit and enjoy the serenity of the lake.
Thanks for placing this cache for all to enjoy pontfamily.

We needed a break from driving and what a great way to stretch our legs whilst enjoying a walk in a lovely location and finding some caches.
Liked the use of a cable tie for this cache.

We have been out here caching a lot over the years, but not for some time, it's a really nice place to walk. The cache was found with no-one else braving the occasional shower. Thanks for another good hide in this great location.
