Sallies

We came with friends who were able to direct us to this little bay that we might never have found if we had been on our own. The GPS took us straight there, never losing coverage once. It was a beautiful clear morning and this was our 1st cache of the day.
+ weightlifting kiwi, toothpicks
- insect repellant (we needed it!), coin
Thanks for the cache

Walked up from Cooks Beach and along the cliff - lovely track.
Great views from the top.
I'm sure that this beach is lonely at many times but not in the peak holiday period - about 20 odd people around.
I found the cache and was about to open it up when some picnicers sat down very close by.
I gave up after 10mins and left as family waiting back up top.

Nice easy find. Lovely spot especially on such a sunny day. Quite a few peole around so we did a spot of fishing off the rocks before finding cache. Cache very wet. Sat down for 10-15 mins and dried contents. Took 3m tape measure(broke whilst drying it) left Military insect repellent and sunscreen (2 in 1).

Second find of the day. About 1pm (forgot to note the time).

Took a while to find, as my GPS was confused about which direction it was in.... found it eventually, right in the spot I should have expected it.

Out: Zed Zebra

Found this easily using special stealth techniques developed while geocaching. This was a very busy beach on a lovely anniversary weekend.
Pam took the earings and we left a bug eyed snoopy and a copy of the cache notes as requested.
