Visiting Nan & Pop up the road, Aunty Maz took me to the park after lunch for a quick play and to log this cache for myself. Was fun exploring among the trees, finding camo and then returning to play on the slippery dip.

Another day, another cache down. Don't think I'd ever been to this particular spot in this quite pleasant suburb of Wollongong.

It was pleasing to note that my snowmobile had easy access and parking at GZ. TFTC!

Down behind the hospital today for work, and figured I might as well grab one before making the peak hour trek back to Sydney. A fairly quick find, though while doing the signing duties a black bird came in through the tree just missing me and then sat on a branch looking annoyed. Very strange. Left a TB and high tailed it out before it came back for another try. Thanks Hoojar, Chip & Ding.
 
16-Jan-13
No luck today, the local dogs were going beserk & barking the moment I entered the park so only had a cursory look as I didn`t want to attract unwanted attention.
 
14-Jan-13
A nice evening stroll. I love these hidden away parks. TFTC!
 
08-Jan-13
This one was a whole lot easier than the last. TFTC
 
06-Jan-13
Lots of fun finding this cache with lozlang, excellent spot. I've picked up the Wales trackable and intend on moving it a little closer to it's goal. Thanks for the cache!

Thanks

Loving this "Wollongong Suburbs" series of caches, easy find, TFTC.
 
05-Jan-13
Dropped off a TB last picked up in Adelaide. Handy having an appropriate size new cache across the road that also allowed mizmutt to have her daily run.
 
03-Jan-13
Probably took a little longer than it should have! Hopefully Mr Bower Bird doesn't want to make the cache part of his collection Smile dropped off a tb # 244

After all the Christmas and Boxing Day celebrations, it was good to get up early and head to work. But not before doing a couple of caches. A short drive and I was sson at the park and as it was still before dawn, I had to search with a torch, and found the cache.

I find it is always best doing these caches near playgrounds, either very early or very late.

Thanks Hoojar, for a great series. TFTC.

Quick easy find! SL TFTC Big Grin
 
22-Dec-12
Yes, should have got a FTF but wasn’t home last night even for a cache only 80m from my front door! First thing I worried about when I heard this series was in the works was the possibility of gaps being filled in empty suburbs preventing a variety of cache hiders but this one is far enough away from one I’ve been planning so I’ll give you this local park Hoojar Wink

Found it with snorris. Woke half the neighborhood dogs so I don't recommend this one at night.

Found with paulyman this evening. I think we set off just about every dog in the area, I would not recommend doing this one at night. TFTC.
