Geocache Description:


Rail ride # 14: Destination Southgate

It seems fitting that my destination can only be “viewed” from this location as other caches have already found Southgate as a worthy location. This location is also right next to Flinders street station so it does make a good end to the Rail ride series.

Southgate is a great place to soak up the Melbourne sun, unroll the newspaper, enjoy a coffee and watch the great variety of people that stroll by. Tourists and locals alike engage in this simple pleasure and the boat traffic provides an extra dimension.

I want to thank my brother “Slink 1” for introducing me to this game; at first I just did not “get it”. Also for letting me use his accurate GPS along the way and for some Sage advice in construction which at times I even listened too! ;-)

This cache is a micro that was turned down on a lathe to make it fit the location. It has a pencil but you may still like to bring a pen. No room for swaps. The cache has been modified so please replace it facing the same way as you found it and gently – It has been stoppered but no need to push back too hard.

Happy caching.

Congratulations to CamBendy for his FTF Well done.
