Team Booted Geocaching Mystery Tour Parramatta, New South Wales, Australia
By Team Booted Geocaching on 12-Nov-05. Waypoint GCQ6VT

Time to archive the Mystery Tour. Hope all those who attended enjoyed it.

Hey,

There's a lonesome Giraffe TB left in the event cache, if you picked it on the weekend, would you be able to grab it from the event cache

Thanks

Hmmm, must remember to log our caches!!

The jokemeister mob had a great day. It's good to get out and see different parts of Sydney. Us Westies don't head east terribly often! The 3 gigglets all had a fun time trying to get the answers before the olds, so kept everyone interested. Can't wait for the next one.

Note to Shaggys, we are the slackers who didn't log out the giraffe, he is safely in our possession waiting to be dropped off on our summer trekking.

Don't forget to log the silver bullet if you haven't already!

It was a great day for all and cant wait until next time

Thanks guys for a top day out. Was enjoyed by all in the YoungGregB cruiser, even cassie! (she is still sleeping it off). Is there anyway we can find out how we all finished, maybe the answers could be published as well, as there were a few that we missed and forgot to ask about at the end. All in all a top day out and hopefully we will be there for the next event.

great day an lost of fun.. cant wait for the next one.. thanks guys

was a good day had fun but nearly turfed a member who felt it was his duty to drive from the passenger seat

Hope you all liked the day. Photos are great. See you all next year. (PS I was the "helper" at the pitstop

Fantasic to see that all involved had a great time, and thanks to all the Team Booted guys that worked hard to bring this all together. Of course, now we're wondering how we're going to top this for next year. But we've got 12 months or so to think of that!

We've loaded photo's up onto the Geocaching Australia Gallery. Check them out or upload your own photos if you'd like. Link attached below. Thanks everyone!

A great day was had by Mr & Mrs C.O.D. Enjoyed an interesting tour of the city and the outer regions. Was also good meeting a few more geocachers in person and getting a few new ideas. A massive thanks to Team Booted for a very enjoyable day out. Will definately be on the next tour. For all who found The Silver bullet here is the link to log your find. (visit link)

A great day and a great idea to organize a *mystery* event. I shall steal your idea and organize something similar in Finland when we get rid of all the snow

Thanks for the organizers and everyone else there, it was nice to meet you all.

we all enjoyed the day a lot. thanks for the great effort Team Booted!!

Dropping a TB

Thanks to all of Team Booted for organising a fantastic event!

I shook off the Friday night cobwebs, and after a detour to drop my navigator at home (piker! ) , I finally made my way to the meeting point, fashionably late ... well, late at least.

Completing the course as driver, navigator and clue decrypter was tricky, but I soon got the hang of it, and convoyed with other groups along the way. The half-way activity was lots of fun, and I really appreciate having a framed copy as a memento (can't wait to see the photos/video).

After negotiating the course and answering most of the questions everyone congregated as they arrived in dribs and drabs to soak up the sun and do the usual cache story swapping.

Dropped off a bunch of TBs, hopefully some more active cachers can keep them going on their way.

Thanks again Team Booted, I look forward to the next one.

WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!! WE WON!!

Ummmm...what am I trying to say here?

Great day boys and girl. With Mousie as navigator and my excellent driving and local knowledge, we were bound for glory. A great day that saw us visiting little parts of Sydney tucked out of the way, with a strong focus on water views.

Half way activitiy was quite interesting, although limited by my lack of imagination. Final destination and ensuing BBQ and cameraderie was refreshing.

Thanks dudes. I'll have to get around to joining Team Booted too...

What a great day! Team Booted your "Mystery Tour" was fun from start to finish. This was Team Philma's first caching event and we loved it. It was nice to put a face to the Geo-Cache's name especially "Mind Socket". Rodger you haven't got horns like I dreamed you had. Thanks Team Booted. Regards Philma, Geo-Cheese & Kisses & Lillian.

well what a fantastic day

This was the first caching event for myself and i must say i enjoyed it very much. many thanks must go to Shaggys, Abuseme, bigmickb and miss leah for an excellent day


got to finally put some faces to the names which is always a good thing now i know what some of the people im cursing when i hit a caching snag look like.

Need to move another travel bug along on the day, have not had the chance to place it anywhere yet.

sadly, my support crew has come down with a severe case of the MonkeyPox. ( some of you may remember this refernce)so I am unable to feild a team.

Baring a miracle i probably wont be attending now. sadly.
as iwas looking forward to this event.

Things are looking positive for a Mind Socket appearance with a handful of overdue TBs from Europe and Dubbo in tow.

Here's a map for the meeting point in Parramatta Park.

The Red asterisk is the best entrance to the park
The Blue asterisk is the meeting point for the start of the tour.

Looks like Mr & Mrs C.O.D will be in attendance. We will bring the Silver Bullet along for the ride for those who haven't found it yet, here is the link: (visit link)
See you there!

Myself Dad and Cassie the wonder dog will be there for sure in my car and I may have convinced Dave and Vanessa (not yet registered members, but have been on a few cache hunts with me)to also come along in their car. I will pay for them if they dont show. looking forward to it see you all soon.

Closer to the date i have realised that i have my first exam for this semester the following monday, so unless someone out there wants to help me study for my maths exam....we are out.

Have an awesome time and we looked forward to all the picks.

Anyone who hasn't already done so, would you be able to post your intentions to attend so that we know how many sets of directions etc to print out for the day

thanks

Philma, Geo-Cheese and Kisses plus Granddaughter Lillian will attend. Regards Philma.

Not long now. Shall be bringing along a few Travel bugs with me on the day. Just dropping them off now.

Sorry, we are not going to be able to make it, working night shift Friday night I forgot to organise a shift swap. Hope all have fun, looking forward to hearing about it.


Cheers

Unfortunately its Bron's birthday that day so we're doing the bridge climb. would have been a tops day though. hope you guys have a great day. Scott's boot will be coming up soon!

Bug drop for a friend, going to try! My first visit.

Sounds like fun. Will try and rally the flock to attend.

This event seems to be only 15181.2 km from my home coordinates... I'll try to be there If you have TB's going to Europe, I can help them on their journey.

Sounds like a fun day! At this stage I will be attending with the Geo-Cheese and Kisses and granddaughters Bronte and Lillian. Thanks Team Booted. Regards Philma.

A few extra details for the weekend.....

* We'll be charging $5 per car, to help cover some of the costs of the weekend

* Lunch will be BYO. There are BBQs at the finish site, and we will be bringing another BBQ another just in case

Hi all, We have a wedding in Sydney a fortnight later, so we might not make it. Have fun. Team Bluedog.

Providing kiddie commitments don't clash (dates still tba for end of year functions)....count the jokemeister mob in.

Update.....All clear, so we'll definately be there.

G'day,

We will be attending, we are going to make a weekend of it, we will travel to Balmoral Village (near Mittagong) Friday then do the event Saturday, then camp at Balmoral Village again then travel back to Wagga Wagga Sunday. I have posted this event to other Geocache people here in Wagga see if we can get some more interested.

Cheers

Hi kids,

If I'm living in Sydney at that point, I'm keen and will even help you run it if you like. Maybe I can even join Team Booted since I was booted before all but one of you!!

Sounds like a fun weekend, but alas, the Pres is booked. The agreement between us doesn't allow one to cache without the other, so looks like we're out .

Sounds interesting and I'm rostered that weekend. Can I bring the four legged hairy one along?

Sounds great! I'm in.

Sounds like a tops day. guess i will have to tag along.

Will try to bring along the other 3 members of Team 2CH too

Sounds like a fun day.

The event sounds awesome, depending on other variables Team Booya will be coming along.

Cheers

this might just be the event to warrant an appearance from the whole Monkey troupe (troop?)

count us in for the day!
