Answers were sent and approved!! Logging the date we visited the beach.

What a beautiful beach and the sand was amazing!!

 
 
Excellent cache!! Great way to end our first trip
To the land down under. Right outside our hotel..this one took us searching twice to find...once found we laughed how close we were the first time.

Interesting how many people come here to try to leap from rock to rock!

Snagged a penguin to take back to California with us!!! 
 
Enjoying the sites in Sydney on our two day visit here after we got off our cruise ship!! Must come back!!

Thanks for our first cache in Sydney!!! On our first visit here after disembarking our cruise ship today!! Found after touring the opera house.

Thanks for the cache and the view of the sails!!! 
 
So excited to stand for the first time in front of the Sydney Opera house!! Great way to start off 2020!! We first took in the Storytime Nutcracker show with our kids followed by a guided tour of this beautiful facility.

During the tour, we jotted down answers to this geocache...answers were sent on Jan 10, after we got home and recovered from our travels. Was given go ahead by the cache owner to post!!

So glad to have touched this iconic building!!!

Only had a couple minutes to look while on a walking tour with a guide. Beautiful area!! 
 
Well we saw the columns....but before we got a chance to look..one of the kids decided to fall into the pool of water...guess have to try next time. 
 
Right after logging we found it the cache...we did spot a couple platypus!! Two in the river right on bridge!! Lots of bubble trails too!! 
 
Absolutely beautiful day walking in the Fern Glade Reserve. No platypus...but saw Tawny Frog Mouths!! Had a few minutes until bus came and picked up a geocache on the north shore of Tasmania. 
 
We stopped here for about 5 mins while riding on the Burnie Attraction bus...no time and with too many people to go searching but what a lovely view and saw the monument. Just in town for the day off the ship!!
