Not found on 28 Dec 2017 at 9:06 pm.
I needed to take a road trip up to Canberra from Melbourne and took the whole family who luckily let me out to do some searching for the 3 days we were here. It was excellent in the Xmas to New Year period because everywhere was so quiet and made the searches much easier.

Just after having dinner we decided to look for a few caches by iPhone torch light.
We looked for a while and all we could find was a small round earth magnet.

Thanks gecko1968 for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

No luck with this one

I was too careful with this one! Would have felt less conspicuous if TravelGran and I had Hi Viz jackets. Talk about attract attention. Will put on Watch List and wait for the next post.

Thanks

Very clever

Uhh

I found it easily, but couldn't replace it as I would have liked. It needs glue, so I had to place the plastic part on the wood next to the hiding spot.
 
06-Aug-17
Found very quickly by the Geokid
 
15-Jul-17
The magnet needs to attached to the thing. I don't have tape or glue with me.
 
07-Jul-17
Out and about with my besty, Happy Uke, again today. We were out to catch a whole swag of caches and brag about it to all and sundry.

We were off to Canberra again today and decided to get some on the way south.

Thanks!

Finalf29 and I decided on the spur of the moment to cache in Canberra and visit some friends there as well. Left a lot later the I was planning (we did the Helensburgh puzzle series yesterday). Nice drive down with a few park and grabs along the way. Great company with Finalf29 as my wingman... found 12 but also a few dnf's... but still an enjoyable day.

This was my eighth for the day. Finally made it to Canberra and decided to grab some near our friends before we dropped in on them. After some very careful consideration we had cache in hand. We considered that to be one very strong tiny magnet and a very interesting log sheet... muggles around but they were all carefully considering their own stuff, so no problems. After further considerations, Finalf29 and I decided to go to the toilet and get some food, in that order. Thanks

F(H)ound It! #1745 - @1:42:12 PM

I arrived at Jamo to attend an indoor puzzle event, but I was a tad early so I had some time to grab a couple of caches. Of course it was Sunday but the markets have packed up and gone. The slightly rainy weather also helped and no one paid me much attention. I quickly spotted what I thought would be the container, I was able to nonchalantly stretch my arm in between passing muggles and soon had CIH and log signed. That was fun -Thanks for the cache, gecko1968.

With a few spare minutes before collecting geodaughter from the mall, this little beastie beckoned. The area was jam-packed today, but I adopted my "if I don't look at you, you can't see me" approach and was able to close in on GZ without issue.

As I came near I saw... something. It was out of place and looked like it might have been part of a container. I checked it out, replaced it and kept looking. Nearby on the ground I saw... something. It looked like it might have been another part of a container; the "Tankengine was here" sticker confirmed it.

I reunited the pieces, but there was no log to be seen. I added a dodgy temporary one from a scrap of paper in the car. It will do for a while... TFTC Smile

I was happy that this one was a bit of a quicker find for me today. A couple have made me think I was cache blind but I did end up finding all I looked for today. Thanks for this sneaky hide gecko1968. I was glad it wasn't in a location where there was someone waiting for transport. Cheers!

6:10pm 24/11 - spotted straight away. Added a new piece of paper as the log was full and it was a bit dodgy.

I swung past here while everything was relatively muggle free, on my way to cache around Uriarra Crossing. This was the first cache of a long caching day, and easily found. TFTC.

Starting back caching after a bit of a break. Finding sneaky urban caches is a great way to remind the team how fun geocaching is! Thank you for the cache and warning about muggles. Team Maroon.

An easy Cache as the afternoon warms up. A few muggles but not so many to make the grab and return a problem. A few kids out learning to ride with their Dad on their new Christmas bikes. Cute. Tftc

The eighth find of the day on score check day. I had walked past this one on several occasions with friends without finding the cache. After reading a few logs beforehand, I had thought this one might take a little while to find. I wandered over from the previous cache and was happy to notice that there were not many people around GZ. First concern ticked off, I guess muggles aren't shopping on a Wednesday morning! Once I arrived at GZ, I found the cache almost straight away! That was a pleasant surprise. There was one muggle near GZ but I waited until she wasn't watching to retrieve the cache. Log signed and cache replaced (with equal stealth). TFTC gecko1968!
