Last finder couldn’t find and it sounds like log is wet so haven’t got time to fix so it’s goodbye.
Nice easy find. TFTC.
Couldn’t sign the log as it’s very wet and had nothing to replace it with.

After visiting the koalas (great! see pictures added) we needed some time to find this cache.
Logbook has dried up a bit.
Many thanks, Bigerchen

Nice one! Never seen one of these in the wild. Just popping out to find a cache after visiting Amaze’n’Things. Third visit here, nice to see a new section has been added.
Cheers!

Spent some time with brand new geo-fiancee, kids and extended fam at the theme park across the road, before sneaking off with said flame for a quick little find.
Loved the cache, thanks for placing it Three Geo Amigos!

# 5447 Found while visiting Philip Island, just after seeing the koalas. Had to drag along my muggle friends, but they were suitably impressed with the cache.
Thanks The Three Geo Amigos

On a caching road trip with gwd.aussie in a effort to complete the Mystery of the Museum Promotion. Thankfully a better day than yesterday enabling us to get the bikes out to undertake the series. gwd.aussie had to point this one out I totally missed it.
Thanks The Three Geo Amigos

People over the road, were busy having fun, so we just had to wait for traffic to die down before grabbing the cache

Quick and easy cache. After the CITO. Hopefully the rain will go away we still need more caches to open the vault

Caching this weekend looking for the gems in the museum mystery hunt. Grabbed this one after the event earlier. TFTC The Three Geo Amigos
Found it after attending CITO ‘Planting for the environment’, thank you The Three Geo Amigos for placing the cache.
One of the reasons I’m on Phillip Island this week is to hang out with my niece doing year 10 work experience. I was on pickup duty at the Koala Sanctuary so made a quick detour to grab this cache. I’ve seen this type before, so for me was pretty quick. TFTC
Number 13 for the day and 27 overall on our trip to the island.
I headed to the wrong side of the path initially and when i turned around i spotted the cache stratight away as JMorg's hand was almost on it while she was leaning over searching the ground level! bahahaha Great camo but i have seen one before so didn't fool me. Thanks

Our 13th find for the day and 27th for the weekend on our assault on Phillip Island caches. As we approached GZ, Cathylm went one way and I went the other. Hmmmm, wonder if its down there I thought as I started to bend over. Meanwhile Cathylm had realised her GPS was pointing in the wrong direction and was standing on the path laughing at the fact I had my hand on it and hadn't realised. Whoops. I would have looked there next. Honest.
Thanks for the fun
Thanks for the fun
Having spotted these types of camps before it didn’t take long to have in my hand to sign, thanks for the cache!
Awesome hide.
Once my gps settled down it was easy peasy. I ran it back to car to show non geo hubby n kids... even hubby was impressed.
Very clever
Thanx

After our arrival in Melbourne we drove directly down to Philipp Island, our first stop in Victoria. Here we looked and found some boxes before we were heading to the Penguin Parade. Thanks to the co‘s for placing and maintaining the caches. Found and logged together with GPS-Wickie, Mikaching and Swerik.
Today we started our journey with a flight from Sydney to Melbourne. Watching the news it was perfect timing, because Sydney was hit by heavy rain, thunder and lightning the same night.
For our accommodation here on the island we had chosen the Ramada Restort. It was a good spot for starting our different adventures. Already on our way to the resort we started to stop for a couple of caches. Later we took a nice walk and continued to find caches in the area. We finished our day to attend the attraction of the island, the penguine parade.

During my vacation in Australia I still had the Koala Conservation Center and the penguins as highlights on my list. Besides, I dedicated myself to the existing caches. In particular, the Treasure Island Trail stood out. Some boxes were easy to find, others took longer.
Thank you for the Caches form Bonn, Germany

Today we visited Phillip Island and could also find some geocaches Tftc!
After searching around for a bit, I noticed something and the cache was soon in hand. All in good condition. TFTC
Spent a big amount of time looking at the Koala Conservation Centre, and then the gps settled and realised it was the wrote place. Found it shortly after.
My wife is sleeping in this morning so I'm trying to complete as much of this pathway series as possible on our weekend away. I am being lazy and driving between caches because I don't have a bike and I don't have enough time to walk it! Thoroughly enjoyed the series, Thankyou so much for all the well maintained and creative caches. Think I was lucky to find this one pretty quickly, phew!
Done on out trip to lovely Australia. Greetings from so often mistaken AUSTRIA and TFTC!
After we have seen three snakes when we wanted to go for a hike, we decided to do something else and went to the beach first to have a small break. After that we walked along the road to find some of the many caches that are hidden there. Thank you very much for this one! Nice greetings from Austria
Today was time to get out the geocycle and travel along one of the many routes in the area so today we found 23 traditionals with 8 DNFs it was not a great day but it was a good day for a ride but those DNFs bring the day as a whole down but thats caching (Cache Blindness) or they just werent there only the cache owner knows which is the case. The other option is the lack of GPS accuracy using Iphone as GPS wasn't preloaded before going for the ride.
Thanks The Three Geo Amigos for placing this cache and another find maybe this series is comming to me and my cach sence is working in the correct plain of existance again.
Grand Cache count = 850 total consisting of 765 Traditionals, 24 Multi, 14 Mystery, 4 Earth, 2 Virtual, 6 Event, 2 Werigo and 2 Letterbox.

Had a rare free Saturday with the family overseas so I planned a day of caching on Phillip Island. The forecast 40 degree heat didn't deter me though I tried to plan caches without too much walking and of course I avoided the area closed due to fire danger. This series was high on my list but I soon realised that being in the car and not having my bike today it wasn't going to be so simple to access. After recharging my energy levels at the nearby brew pub I headed to this one. Found a wayward golf ball form across the road and shortly after spotted the cache. My tenth find of 30 for the day. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache and the series The Three Geo Amigos.
Eleventh geocaching day in Australia.
Today we went to Phillip Island.
We visited the koala centre, and then I visited this cache.
It took me five minutes to discover the container and its logbook; this classic camo is still very efficient!
Many thanks to the Three Geo Amigos for this cache.
Greetings from France.

Wow that one was good. The cache itself was easy but getting to it unseen was another story!! Tftc
Spotted this one straight away but had to wait for the right time to nab it no cars quick dash sign and replace tftc
This cache was a quick find while the kids played golf. Thanks to The Three Geo Amigos for placing this cache.
Found during our honeymoon trip. Almost 1 month driving through Australian country.
It was an amazing trip.

This was a quick one, seen these before. I stopped at the brewery across the road on the way back to the car. A nice place, friendly staff and good beer.
Thanks

Since moving from New Zealand I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches. I have got a nice streak going and hoping to let it run for as long as possible. I usually cache on my own but sometimes I will collect my nephew stinky bob and my brother stinky tom who both enjoy this hobby.
A big thanks goes out to all the cachers and cache owners without whom this lifestyle would not be possible.
The caches I’ve found in Australia so far have for the most part all been in great condition. Keep up the good work.
Thanks

A surprisingly quick find while driving through the area. Noticed the brewery/restaurant across the street shortly after making the find.
Enjoyed the koalas next door very much. Thanks for bringing us here.

Second one today, thanks! We'd seen a similar container before so it was a relatively quick find. Might try one more while waiting on the koala centre to open.
Previous logs helped me expand my searching and the cache was found. Thanks for the hunt today: )
Love these hides...classic hidden in plain sight. Dont image this would be so easy dor someone who has nit seen it before as its a scary place to be searching so close to the road.
In Melbourne / Victoria for a few days holiday - as opposed to my more usual work visits. Today we headed to Phillip Island, which I've never visited before and did the proper tourist things by visiting the Koalas and the Penguins. I also did a few of the 'Pathway' caches on foot while Mrs Biggles and Flying Phoenix took a more relaxed approach to the day. Although this one was marked as one of the harder caches in this trail I actually spotted it straight away. Wish I could say that about some of the others. TFTC, Biggles.
New to this, couldn't find this one. Pop it on our list for return another time.
Moved into my caravan park today for the weekend. Here to attend an informative event at the library tomorrow.
This was just across the road from my accommodation so had to find and log.
Once I realised what I was looking at the cache was easily retrieved and signed

Took the kids for some up close and personal time with the koalas today and the lucky munchkins got to hear what we can only guess was a male mating call. Scared the beezeejus out of them!!! In the way out I took advantage of this caches proximity and went for a quick stroll. Luckily this is a container I am well familiar with. Unfortunately the steam of traffic was constant so there are a lot of drivers out there who now think I'm the worlds most cautious road crosser who will not cross until every single vehicle has left the vicinity! Log signed and a quick dash back to the escape vehicle camp-site bound for kiddies snooze time. TFTC
Wanted to educate our geo-grandparents on the joys of caching, so this was a great quick find before we all visited the nearby Koala Conservation Reserve Tftc Three Geo Amigos
This has to be one of my favourite types of hide. Thankfully I've hidden these sneaky little things a couple of times myself and can spot them a mile off. Cool hide before heading across the road and having lunch with EKPGeoGirl and our geo dog, Peanut. TFTC.
Found one of these containers in Cairns and then bought one, haven,'t put it out yet, but it makes it easier to spot. Had a great day over the road from this cache, thanks and greetings from north Queensland
We enjoyed a beautiful day here on the island and visited a few caches. Nice hide. Sorry for the similary log. TFTC and greetings from Austria.
Back on Phillip Island again for some more caching fun and to complete a special multi in the area. This one defeated us last visit, but today we were able to turn it into a smiley. Thanks to the previous visitor who provided a temporary log sheet for us to sign at 5.17pm. No muggles opposite to distract us this late in the day! #4236 TFTC The Three Amigos
Found this one quickly but was too busy watching all the fun across the road. Got the cache but no log or bag so we replaced the bag n a scrap of paper tftc
We stopped off at Amaze and things (a great experience by the way) and I popped over to find the cache. I found it alright, on the ground with no log I popped the cache back in place; however I had no spare logs to pop in (I have a photo just in case - only did this one on the path, thanks Three Geo Amigos.
An after work caching visit, saw us on the Island with the view of getting some caches we had to pass up on our visit last week. We found this cache as a nice quiet drive by and noticed how quiet it is here on the Island during the week.
Thanks The Three Geo Amigos for this cache placement.

This was our only DNF for the afternoon. We found it too hard, especially with so many folks playing over the road. Just too tricky for us today.
Day two of our caching adventure from Qld saw angloj and I heading to Phillip Island for the day. Having seen this type of cache before angloj was able to make a quick find. TFTC The Three Geo Amigos
A great start to an afternoon of caching. I love this sort of hide! TFTC The Three Geo Amigos....
Yea this road is very busy so this is nerve wracking with young kids. A very sneaky and clever hide! Trust the co-ordinates.
Whew, glad I've seen one of these before or might have been scratching round for ages! As it was, a quick grab but traffic a bit more frequent so had to make it quick, log a bit wet so glad it was of the waterproof variety
Cache #210 found @ 12:45 pm.
Great cache! Our 10y Wedding Anniversary takes us, the kids and the camper trailer to Wilson's Promontory, via Philip Island. GeoCaching along the way, of course! Spent some time across the road and totally agree - GeoCachers are made for these puzzles! We don't have time to complete the cache series but picked this up anyway. Cache and log are dry and in good condition.
