My first plan for the day was to go off geocaching to the West of Melbourne. However, with a massive rain storm pouring down and with some gale force winds, I called it off. Then, a new geocache got released, and my geocaching plans were back on, however, with Red Hill, the main target.The main had stopped just as I got to this location, so I thought I would stop. Was able to park within 30 meters, and it was a quick find. That was great as the next rain storm hit just as I was running back to the car.Thanks for the cache, -Lisette- and Pimp my Balloons.Hunter
Quick find on my way to take my dog to the vet - couldn't help myself! Of course I was unprepared and didn't have a pen BUT I improvised and used an eyebrow pencil TFTC

A day out starting at a 60th Birthday Community Celebration event in Mordialloc.

Some epic caches out at Gunnamatta.
A DNL (Did Not Look) at the cricket match.

We have been holidaying on the Mornington Peninsula and today we were heading home. As it was the best weather day for our whole holiday, we decided to find a couple more, well three in fact, caches before we left. After visiting the nearby Rocky Creek Strawberry Farm for a yummy strawberry ice cream, some jam and some strawberries we were now on our way home and stopped to pick up one final cache. Mrs. Pooky jumped out of the geo4WD and headed to GZ but couldn't see the cache for looking and Mr. Pooky walked up and found the cache straight away in plain sight. TFTC. TNLN
It’s always frustrating when you read all the easy find logs when you can’t find it. I was totally overthinking this one, and yes, once found, it could have been a very easy find. TFTC!
A quick grab only because there was no muggles around on early Sunday morning. TFTC
All good here. Like many others went for the main attraction only to back pedal.

At first I looked at where I thought it was but didn’t see it. It’s because I didn’t look properly. Soon found the cache with CJDenno.

After flying in the Eagle we headed out this way form some more caches. A nice quick find here. tftc
After flying on the wings of an eagle and finding ourselves lifted through the sky, lifted up above the world to see (lol) we decided to meander our way around finding caches. This one was a nice, quick find (thankfully) before we hit the road again. Tftc
Beautiful day for caching. But after taking the eagle to the top I needed to empty my panties somewhere……so we came here tftc
Out on the Geo-motorcycle today and grabbing a few caches, A nice easy find in the usual spot.

Out and about with geo son pimpmyballoons for a morning of caching. Not comfortable parking here so close to bend and double lines. Made the easy find and soon on our way. Thanks for the cache Lisette.
Out and about caching the peninsula with day1976, on the list for today were old caches and also caches I needed to help fill in my D/T grid.
Day1976 got out to get this cache, as I had parked right next to the road, and he found it in the other likely spot, not the first one we had thought it would be.

Ilukaperi guessed the hide style of this cache before we even got there. On location, I left the phone in the car because it appeared she was right, but after inspecting the given object I was still empty handed. It was only after checking out another nearby location that I made the find. TFTC!
On our journey from Sydney to Adelaide we took a route that took us along this cache.
Thanks for the welcome,

On our way to celebrate geodaughters big birthday (50) nearby at a special vineyard.thanks
Our first of 123go after a Christmas party in red hill stopped to mark this one off our list checker it twice and signed log TFTC
Not sure how I have not found this until now. We had left the Sunny Ridge farm and were heading back to Rosebud when this happened to be along the way and I requested that a brief stop be made. I had changed my shoes to thongs, not that it really mattered for the 25 metre walk to the cache. As usual, I wondered what passersby thought I was up to, but a very quick find here and in good order! A large crate of some kind very near that maybe someone had dumped.
Thanks -Lisette- for another one of this series.

Found fast by the reluctant teen I had to bribe to stop and get out of the car. Thank you
Kerydn21 pulled up I jumped out and before she turned the car off it was signed and I was getting back in
Definitely what we call a quick drive by I hadn’t even got out of the car and Micheena had it in her hand. SL TFTC
Quick drive by on our way back from main ridge dairy for Christmas cheese... easy find by the Macey-Wells TNLN TFTC. HAPPY CHRISTMAS

After attending the Mega at Parkville yesterday we went for a low pace winery lunch day today, of course with a few tastings of some local caches in between cellar doors. We are well practiced at these hides, took the kids a few seconds.... TFTC

These locations are often occupied with cobwebs. This was no exception. I put my hand in with no gloves and made the easy find. This time there were no spiders ! Whew! Log sign and cache returned to its home before facing the traffic back to the car at this busy time of the day. One more for our count for the day.
Found at 13:10
I took a wrong turn and ended to going past here. A quick stop, find and sign and we were soon back on our way.
Thanks -Lisette-for the cache.

One current personal caching challenge that I’m keeping an eye on is the double calendar challenge (at least two finds on each calendar day) and so this was a day when I needed to get out and find a cache. I had bene on a mountain biking trek around Red Hill followed by lunch and a few beers at the Red Hill Brewery. My non-caching companions are used to my caching exploits and so when I let slip I needed to find a cache for the day they were very cooperative. We drove to this one after finishing up our lunch and parked nearby. They jumped out to check the bikes were still securely attached and in that time I had made the find. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some other trackables. Thanks for the cache Lisette.

Didn’t find today. Not sure if we had no luck or if it was due to recent modifications to the road barrier. Might try again one day when on this road again.
The road was very busy today. Managed a good safe park and found without any problem. Log signed and back safe again.

A bonus drive by find while I waited for my wife to catch up in her car on our way to my niece's birthday party in McCrae. tftc
We came down to Portsea for the weekend thanks to a hotel voucher we received as a wedding gift earlier in the year. We found this cache on Saturday on our way back to Portsea after our horseriding winery tour in the morning and then a quick lunch at the Red Hill Bakery. TFTC
Just on the way home from a geocache afternoon. Slowly working through the "welcome to" series. TFTC
After doing the OT Dam walk, I couldn't resist stopping and grabbing this one. TFTC -Lisette-
Gotcha! Twigs in my hair for no reason at all!! On to the cheese factory with @_PanicAtTheDisco
Found tonight whilst in the area with Trailstevo. We had a bit of a plan which mainly involved not climbing big trees, but we still ended up with a few smaller climbs. Lots of short walks tonight, we have manged to confirm there is a hill here! Is every path up hill?? Got a treat in seeing a Koala tonoght too.
Thanks for the Sunday fun, TFTC.

Out here for the day with Quasar3671 and his boys. A long drive from Geelong however worth the early start!
A nice quick easy pickup here - cheers and thanks!

I came up the hill in September and never got to this side. So good to see a welcoming cache here. I was caching today with Wacky - and told here about the cache at the lookout and interpretive centre. Well what do you know - the cache was gone and the whole damn structure had disappeared. I had to eat humble pie for a bit.
Thanks to -Lisette- and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!

Out caching with our Kiwi group over for the Surf Coast Mega event with Paddle Chick and Buller Trout signed the log BT-PC-KN thanks for placing the cache
Found on Mega trip with Paddle chick and Kiwi Nomad. Thanks for all of the caches. Enjoying the trip. Always wanted to come back to Victoria
Found this cache today on this absolutely beautiful Melbourne day filled with sunshine....... Not, but you think a little rain is going to stop me from doing this crazy game hahaha. Today I spent the day with BendSinister picking up caches around the Mornington Peninsula (and completing another day on my caching day streak yay it's day 20 haha) with the intention of finding the new lord of the rings mysteries and anything else along the way. Anyways I would like to thank you for the cache and the adventure that we had today, I really love this game and want to go out to do some more soon. Cheers
