5 May 2013, Day 7 of our Trip Around Australia

Today was full on Cachemania; We were off to “j & j Say G'Day to WA” GC47DF1, a caching event in the Mandura area at the Quarry Adventure Playground. This cache would be our #400, a great way to reach this milestone. We aimed to get off early so we could try to grab my GA4877 Bingo moveable cache nearby. We ended up leaving later than planned due to delays caused by the children, sigh….We managed to navigate to the cache area and set about searching, but after 20 mins of bashing around the bushes and even extending the search area we were forced to leave with a DNF.
We headed off to the event but the GPSr’s maps did not have the new estate listed so resorted to the trusty iphone for directions. Once we arrived we made our way to the meeting area right under the limestone cliffs at the bottom of a manmade amphitheatre, a very spectacular setting. We greeted the event organisers, Jason & Janine and some other cachers, some we had met before and some new people. We chatted with our fellow cachers until the time came to do the prize draws, no luck for us this time, Lol.
After the prize draws we were free to go off and find the caches which had been placed out for the event . We had lots of fun finding these and kept bumping into other cachers as we wandered around. The Quarry Adventure Playground was a very popular place for families to come and picnic, who knows what the muggles were thinking about what we were all doing, or if they even noticed, LOL! The equipment was all very good quality and well constructed with lots of fun constructions for the kids to play on. While we were running around looking for the caches J&J were busy organizing a BBQ lunch for us all, so we stopped for a while for the kids to grab a sausage in some bread and a few home made cup cakes, an unexpected and very welcome treat.
We managed to find the three caches placed for the event, GC47KPA, GC47KGD, GC49MCE as well as another existing cache on site. After a bit more chatting with fellow cachers we decide to call it a day and head off. Overall the days event was fantastic fun for all and very well organized. Great job J&J!
On the way back we made a quick detour into the Rockingham beachfront area to find a few waymarks, the kids ran around and climbed all over the equipment and structures having lots of fun. Then it was time to head off back to the caravan for dinner.
In the afternoon, before it got dark I headed off for a walk in the nearby Dixon Road Conservation Precinct. There are some caches here by Luna Maya and I managed to find one of them, GX47NBY, before it got too dark. Overall and excellent day of fun caching!
