This puzzle is one to keep the kids happy in the car and is based on the good old I-Spy game.
You can solve this either southbound (S) or northbound (N) while travelling down or up the Pacific Highway. At each of the five listed waypoints, you need to spot an object from the list provided. There may be more than one visible so you'll need to decide which is most appropriate. Once you've solved the clues, substitute the appropriate numbers in to find the cache location.
The objects are generally easy to spot during the day - might be a bit harder at night!
The cache is only a short drive from the highway and is a nice quiet spot to take a break from your travels. There are toilets nearby.
