Yes, we're still here!

It's been a while since our last post, mainly because we've been too busy planning our wedding to go caching, and it's been too wet over the past few weeks. However we fixed that situation last weekend with a trip to Shoal Bay, in the Port Stephens region of New South Wales. We had our bookmark list of 21 caches ready to go. Ms S also figured out how to use GSAK to download the caches as an OV2 file, which she then imported into her HP PDA which includes TomTom GPS software. This saves us from entering them all manually.

The weather on Saturday was perfect for caching - sunny, but not too hot. We didn't find as many caches as we would have liked - we ended up finding ten. They were:
Taylors Beach
Pied Piper
Sailing @ The Bay
Ducks and Quackers
Corlette Head
Millionaires Row
Sitting by the Bay
Bagnals Boardwalk
Dutchies Dolphin Walk
Gardens and Views

We're off to Port Macquarie this weekend with another bookmark list ready to go. Hopefully we'll be able to find eight caches and reach our 100 finds milestone!
