Came today to see the last day of the criket and do some trigs. Looks like it is going to be all trigs!

Thought it would be a nice way logging this one from the Allianz stadium

Dropped the family off for Cirque Du Soleil, then set about a trig hunt of the Eastern Suburbs.

#GA775 - 17:10; Sol de lune and I had decided that double points month made a flying day trip to Sydney to grab some more trigs and perhaps a GeGnome or two a worthwhile adventure. An itinerary was hastily prepared and today was to be the day. We had completed a good part of the prepared itinerary, but it had been a bit ambitious, so we decided to abandon it at this stage and collect as many caches in the Willoughby and North Sydney areas before heading back across the bridge for a few more southside on the way home. We had bagged a few trigs, along with a small band of GeGnomes and we were now headed towards home. We had picked up a couple of the southside trigs and decided a couple close by were too tempting to leave for another visit, so we headed off towards this one. Took the wrong road to start with, but were soon back on track. Managed to grab a park and the happy snaps were soon in the can. I'm not sure what had brought the crowds in, complete with the NSW Police Riot and Crowd Control unit, but there was obviously something going on at Fox Studios today. TFTC Geocaching Australia

Grabbed with LuckyL10n during our day run to Sydney chasing a few pesky GeGnomes along with a few Trigs...
Managed to get up close to this, even though something was going on at Fox Studios....auditions for something me thinks. TFTT

I decided on a quick wander after visiting a family member at St Vincents. This one popped up on the radar and got as close as I could to grab a selfie.

How many time have I looked at this tower over the years? I've been attending the SCG Test match for nearly 20 years but missed on getting a photo the last few years and this last summer I didn't make it to the Test match. However I went to the vital World Cup game between England and Afghanistan the other night and got this shot of the tower by night over the big screen.
Found with my boy Zalgar.
Sorry, Im so far behind with my logs Ive decided to cut'n'paste to catch up!

Zhaoy and I were hitting the Hi-Fi to rock out to "The Living End" tonight! I forgot to get this on our last visit to Moore Park so made sure we swung by tonight! I remember the old Easter Show days when this tower was the centre of attention for the show ring!
Cheers.

Ended up going in to Masterchef Live (only because someone gave us a couple of tickets they had won) so walked up to grab this one afterwards. Could have got a bit closer but the view was pretty good from here outside the Hordern.
Another old Passive Trig Station, this one is now part of the Fox studio complex in what used to be the Showground Arena.
