Despite being supposedly on leave this week, and also working from home when I am supposed to be at work, today I needed to grab some spares to fix something at Milsons Point wharf. So I had to get off at Milsons Point station anyway so took the opportunity to take the photo of this cathedral. Bonus cache during lockdown, thanks Geocaching Australia.
I left work early after a celebration lunch and decided to find some caches on the way home. I first found a nearby GC multi and then decided to find some GCAs. I was soon outside this spot, and was able to get a clear twilight shot. TFTT
Today I cycled from Chatswood to the Sydney CBD, main goal was to do the North Sydney Cycleways Series by Zalgariath, the rest being logged is collateral damage (I mean finds
Quick find before finding Woof's water.

Easy to spot on the walk to my work Xmas party. The spires are unwrapped now. Many beers were drunk to bring you this information. TFTC!
The tower is wrapped in blue plastic, but I still photographed it. TFTC.

Another day trip to the big smoke with LuckyL10n to grab a few trigs and hopefully a gegnome or two....
Another quick drive by stop and photo. No-one really around today so all was good.

Forgot that a Sunday morning would have people buzzing around in droves. Well maybe not droves but I'm sure the people at the doors may have wondered why someone in a suit was taking a selfie (come on google selfie is in the dictionary now you can remove the red squiggle lines in the edit box) with their church in the background. Or maybe they didn't think anything of it because this is Sydney and it's full of nutbags after all.
#GA447 - 13:45; I was in Sydney with the geohoney and we had just crossed doing the walk across the Harbour Bridge off our bucket list. I wanted to grab the Pylon North trig and noticed this one was also close by, so dropped over and took a few snaps before heading back down the hill for another couple. TFTC Geocaching Australia

Another one that can be seen from Milsons Point station. A quick snap and then back on the next train.
Going on a quick Trig and Munzee hunt before the start of Calypso's "Cross the Coathanger" walking event today. I love these old passive trigs where you can visualise once it was the high point around here... and now there are skyscrapers everywhere dwarfing it

I was encouraged to log this trig by Zalgariath, considering
I was standing right in front of it. It is a nice building.

Was in the area dropping off something and wanted to do some caches. What did I find, but a Trig or two. Walked over and snapped the pic from the front. Nice one.

Belatedly logging this one from a few weeks back, only remembered when I found the pictures today.
A quick outing to Sydney to take the needed photo of this nice building, I had often seen this Church from the train but had not known this was a Trig Point until recently. Of course these days this is quite obscured by all the tall buildings in the area.
