Two long outstanding tasks, attacked at a cooler autumn day, overcast as today: To do Steeba's new earthcache, the Illawarra Escarpment Sea Cliffs (GC2K0TJ) and to hide a traditional cache here at the Coal Cliffs, where I use to descend and on a cold winter day, may have a bath in the warming morning sun on one of the rocks at the old jetty wharf. The Arkaroo loves in particular the geology of this place: Where else can you see coal lode coming to the surface! Would love to climb the rocks and establish a few multi length routes to the top of the escarpment - they look so wonderful - but they are so brittle and so rubbish - bummer! Maybe, one day, we should try an easier one - there must be a way!

Came out here by Blue Desert Drive with RockSandra's bike on the roof - she loves to ride up and down the bridge as it is pretty much leveled for Little Bulli. Got the best parking spot - right the first one, ans started cooking my coffee on the gas stove, while another desert drive passed buy: Ulf! So we sat down on the road barrier and had a good chat.

Haha, some Indians held us for salesman and asked whether we sell those locks people fix at the bridge... Good one!

Seriously, RockSandra's bike back onto the roof rack and down we went - with all the cache gear, pretty confident finding a goos spot - no problem. RockSandra hasn't bee here yet, but Suparki12, of course, hangs around everywhere in the region.

Bit of photo shooting, bit of teaching the kid some geology, some history ... pretty much, what the cache description now says. Played a bit with coal!

While she was utilizing her new camera, I placed the cache, did the inaugurational TB log, and done: a new adventure cache! Have fun!

The Arkaroo - who loves the mountains and the waters.
