We came from came a few kilometres out of our way to get this one, but it was an easy park and shoot for geoson...or daughter. Not sure who took this one.

A quick afternoon walk from our hotel, a trig (sort of!) and a cache.... not bad for 4km. Caching in Sydney is easier on foot I've decided.....

Tough to find parking in this part of the world, but it was managed and a quick selfie snapped.
In the area prior to trip north and managed to grab a shot while stopped nearby.
Picking up Zhaomin from the airport this morning I was early and not going to pay the crazy parking fees so decided to grab a few nearby trigs instead!

#GA560 - 16:40; I was back in Sydney with the geohoney for an event and afterwards we headed off on a short circuit to grab a few caches before the evening function got underway. The hardest part of this find was finding somewhere to park the geomobile so I could take the snap. Found somewhere suitable and all was good. TFTC Geocaching Australia

Driving past managed to get a shot from the traffic lights. Will have to see if I can get a shot from above as we have some antennas on a nearby building so next time we get a service call I will have a look from there.
It was getting dark quickly wich made it not easy to get good opictures, but these will do!

I walked past this tower a few times during my week stay in Sydney for a training course.
A quick trip to Mascot to log this neglected Passive trig Station. it also serves as a Vodaphone telecom tower.
