Re: Who can help us with our honeymoon planning?

Yesterday we made a detailed plan of our journey. It is now for 50 days and 6.250 km of driving. We think this is possible to have in this way a relaxed holiday but see also a lot of Australia. So now we have to determined which caches we absolute would like to do. This is a next step of investigat...

Re: Who can help us with our honeymoon planning?

I would probably go to a wildlife park instead of all the way out to Dubbo Zoo. You can visit any zoo and see lions etc. Wildlife parks will get you closer to Aussie animals. Check out Featherdale Wildlife Park in Sydney for example. Jenny Jo* loves tigers soo much. Therefore we would like to go to...

Re: Let's Register more caches on GCA

Let me know and I will take you myself. Do you work? ie if anyone came up mid-week, would you be able to take a day off for a 4WD trip? Or does it need to be the weekend? Just asking in case I can find a spare few days to visit my favourite city in Oz :D For me as I'm up there for work it would hav...

Re: Let's Register more caches on GCA

Journeyman, You probably should have let the US site publish the cache. I am currently living in Townsville. I have 4 GCA caches listed around Townsville. When listing them I was Looking for an Active GCA finder who lives in or visits Townsville and likes a bit of a bushwalk and I can tell you ther...

Re: Report GCA Site issues here

Yes it makes sense, and yes it does. It's not a bug per se, but it's irritating. I'm not quite sure how to address it, but I will look at it. In the short term, when you click on a cache on the Latest Logs page, it will open a new tab with the cache shown. That will preserve the list of logs as all...

Re: Who can help us with our honeymoon planning?

I took one of your countryman on a trip across the country once and there were a few things I learnt. he didn't like bugs and he didn't like heat. So for a major portion of your trip ie Adelaide to Cairns you need to do it in winter. Less bugs less heat. The best times would be April to September. I...

Re: Report GCA Site issues here

don't know whether its a bug but it bugs me a bit.

This is after I bring up the latest logs for say QLD.

You get down to the bottom and press next page. If you click on a cache from the log then try and return to the logs it puts you back to page 1. Hope this amkes sense 8-[

Re: check your caches

Only one find so far. I would not say any caches are missing yet.

Re: Permission to place?

To add. With regards to hiding. Except in the no go zones mentioned above if you can access an area legally then hiding a cache should not be a problem. Permission to hide should not be an issue do not persue it. The hider should hide their cache from non geocachers. This includes bomb squads/police...

Re: Permission to place?

In WA there are a few no go areas. Bold Park is one. Kings Park another. I believe there may have been an issue on the South Perth foreshore. All other areas I believe are fairgame. The UMP/Papa Bear Left is WA based and is a great source of info for listing on the Groundspeak site. Not all caches a...

Re: Unfilled log books: Is it just me?

Anyway - in the first log book for "Welcome to Melbourne" (GC2GVR5) I ruled a line dividing each page in half, front and back and wrote a log number in every log space - two per page, both sides - from 1 to 176. I have just replaced the log book and retrieved the first one and the plan has worked f...
