Found this one during our month long tour of SE Australia. It is our intention to find as many caches as possible during our stay and as a result logistics dictate that this generic log will have to suffice .Hope the cache owners, to whom we extend our gratitude for their efforts, will all understand the reasons for this.All good wishes from us both.

Thanks for bringing us here. Never knew this place existed. Walked around the park and left a note in the visitors book. Just a note to future catchers I think the entry/exit that the cache is at is no longer in use. We walked around the back of the park to find it. Thanks!

Found on our Windsor Invasion weekend with Mtrax, Albida33 and Sol de lune!
We had stickers for many of the finds, but where the log was too small, we signed it as MAST (Mtrax, Albida33, Sol de lune, Tankengine). Had a great weekend, well up until the Sunday, when the rain set in! Thanks TB.
 
31-May-13
A weekend trip to Windsor with Mtrax, Albida and Tankengine and this was our first stop. Once the right parking spot was grabbed, the cache was as well.

Initially went to the wrong gate then realised my mistake. Had a bit of a look around but was starting to feel the heat on my unprotected head. I ended up buying a hat at a service station nearby, with a Panama one being the only large enough for my enormous skull. Very stylish! Left a Wombat TB here as it seemed appropriate. TFTC!

I'm trying to catch up on past logs today. I've let 140 caches pass without logging them. So I can't say anything specific about your cache. I'm only 10 years old, and while I love caching, I sometimes like doing other things rather than logging my finds when I get home. Sorry. Thanks for putting your cache out for me to enjoy.
 
05-Oct-10
Today my dad said I have to catch up on all the logs I have missed. I've missed about 130 because I like caching more than I like writing the logs. So sorry this is just a standard comment. Thanks for hiding your cache for me to enjoy.
 
05-Oct-10
A quick find after pulling into the wrong entrance and having to drive the short way back. Thanks
