Beyond the Boardwalk St Leonards, Victoria, Australia

Nice and easy find on a windy spring day. Tftc

Taking advantage of this lovely sunny day we toured the Bellarine Peninsula using a newly released labcache as our tour guide and of coarse we also sought out some unfound trads.Mr Triton has been eying these 3 caches off for some time so with the weather being conducive to caching he headed off along the path on Edwards Point. Almost tripping over an echidna here he found the cache no dramas but then some muggles appeared while signing the logbook so he pretended to take photos of the echidna until they passed.Thanks Dromaniax for the placement.

14:25The seventh day of the seventh month, what better opportunity to walk the ~ 6km to Edwards Point and back. Perfect weather to be out & about adding a few more cache finds to our collection. Second stop, we made a fairly quick find & our name was in the log.The boardwalk certainly brought back memories of some interesting bike rides!A BIG thank you to the CO who placed this cache.37137

Took a little bit but finally saw it at a different angle. TFTC

Thanks for the cache! Found on 18/5/24!

Off for an early morning walk to Edward's Point and back. Started the walk at 7.30 am with an expected sunrise of 7.35. As such, I took the beach track first. The sunrise happened later than expected with the very low cloud cover, but when it did show itself, it was a very deep red. Just beautiful. Then it soon vanished behind more clouds before reappearing well later, higher and yellower. Found all the geocaches and was back to the car at 9.45 am. A total time of 2 hours, 15 minutes with 11 finds, and no DNFs. It was great to find a number of ammo cans in the bush, too. Lovely, enjoyable walk and was very peaceful until the sun was well up and other people started the walk.This area is getting pretty busy now that the sun is up, and pre-dawn it was much quieter, peaceful, and soul soothing.Thanks for the cache, Dromaniax.Hunter

We must have searched for this one once upon a time, but today came up with the goods!TFTC

Nice easy find. Alansee and I headed out to do these early as its supposed to be hot. Seen 2 lizards so far.Thanks for the cache Dromaniax

Out with Moonb1. I am sure that having two people searching is much better than one!

Thanks to Dromaniax for this hide.Suscoe was enjoying the adventure.A quick find.What a delightful afternoon for a trip along the Edwards Point trail.

Exploring around Swan Bay today and picking up some caches along the way. Flies and bugs were a killer walking along the swamplands without any bug spray. The sun also decided to come out and make things abit toasty.Found this cache to be all in good condition. Thanks for the hide for me and others to find!

Found quickly, right on the marker

Another quick find on our way. We watched our footing very carefully and were pleased that we didn't encounter any wriggle sticks.A jellyfish we spotted further down, on the water's edge, was u-shaped.

I've been looking at doing this walk for years but never quite managed to fit it in. Today, I found myself with some spare time in the area and seeing it was such a beautiful day decided to head off. I didn't see anyone along the path the whole time other than a couple of fishing boats as I neared the point. There were hardly any footprints even once I got out onto the sand. Such a beautiful place and I really enjoyed the quietness of the area with only just the birds for company. I'm glad I've finally managed to get out here after all this time. I circled around a few times here without any luck and then spotted it from the other side. Thanks for the cache.

Found it last Friday

TFTC, nice hide

Father's Day family adventure #5:

Find credit to @ducknomnom. Once again, I was looking in all the wrong places.
This cache was identical to a container gifted to me only this morning.

Starting to wonder if we're going to be able to claim all the Edward's Point caches today.

A quick find off the beaten path on our Father’s Day caching walk. Thanks for the cache!

TFTC, having a great day and lots of luck finding our caches

Took a little while but we found it in the end. TFTC!

Quick find

Found this morning while having a walk so happy to see new caches out here, very motivating! Many thanks for the cache

Out for a day of caching by myself today out of the 13 I was chasing I found 9, 3 DNFs and one note as I wasn't going to get my feet wet. A little bit of rain on the walk down today, cache was a easy find. TFTC

TFTC took us a while! Hubby got it in the end

Found it

A lovely sunny day for some exercise in this lovely linear bushland area. Now beyond the boardwalk it was time to seek the next cache. Looked high and low before spotting it. How did I not see it before !! Another FP thanks Dromaniax

Another great placement to fill a gap in the caches here. Very quiet just before midnight.
Thanks for placing this cache Dromaniax

Have been eyeing off doing this walk for some time and finally have had the chance to do it today. It's a very nice walk and thanks for placing a cache out this way

The plan for the day was to help SimsFamily organise a few things in the eastern suburbs.
When the cache was published we were heading in the wrong into a sunrise. So after the sun has set we can out for a walk.
The cache was soon discovered.
Log signed and replaced as found.

Thanks for the traditional cache Dromaniax

Woo hoo - a damp look but soon in hand. FTF - woo hoo. TFTC Dromaniax

AusFox; and I had spent the day on the other side of the bay today working hard in my Uncles Garage. Afterward I had to deliver some items to AusFox;'s place and when we realised one down here had only had a DNF against its name of course we thought we would give it a crack in the hopes of a first to find.
Now we were here there are another two caches down the track and it's a beautiful evening only a little fresh with clear skies after all todays rain.
Yetarewethere had already found this one so of course it took us a little bit to spot the hide and AusFox; literally had it nearly smack him in the head.
Thank you Dromaniax for the gap filler
