Sorry everyone, looks like Spotty Dog has been muggled at last... We have a busy week ahead so I will disable it temporarily until we can fix up a replacement... Happy geocaching!
needs replacingBaktrak eagle- eyes, and minimal number of muggles who cared, all helped me with this one.
Had a great long walk along the river path, always a nice thing to do here.

We were surprised at how well some of the geocaches survived the recent weather. Spotty Dog looks brand new. Great hidey-hole. Thanks Bush'n'books.
Found after daughter soccer game nearby, took tb, tftc , was out in the open but covered up a bit better when finished
Came out for my granddaughter's soccer match this morning and AWTYOW told me there was a cache to be found here. Quickly had it in hand and left a traveller. TFTC!
My daughters enjoyed playing in the nearby park , while i went looking for the cache . The cache was a bit exposed when i found it so I covered it a bit more when I replaced it . Thanks for the cache Bush'n'books tnln sl
TFTC. Took a bit to get to this one with sooooo many kids playing on the park nearby. The geokids had a play while we found the well camouflaged cache.
Well that was bugger then I expected, cache was out in full view so put it back where I assume I should have been. Took flower and left minion and pirate coin.
Finally managed to find a cache with the GeoNephew, who greatly appreciated the play ground nearby. We ended up spending far more time on the swings etc, than we did caching today but we managed to find this one and keep my streak going. My last find for this Sydney adventure before heading back to Adelaide. TFTC Bush'n'books!
As soon as I finished saying "we might have to try again once this family moves on", my better half replies with "why, I've got it already"...
A short walk to a quiet table to fill in the log, a stealthy return, and now we're off to the next.

Good coordinates but had to use our eyes took two turns to find it its our second geocache
Found! Kids have been enjoying todays caching with parks at most locations. Tftc
Found quite quickly as pitman clan walked past and it was exposed just enough for a cacher to spot it - we covered it better when leaving though. Nice to find a decent sized cache in a suburban area! We left some treasures to liven it up though as it didn't have much left. TFTC!
Thanks for the cache found on the way to the interesting Belgenny Farm on a very hot day for Christmas Lunch and markets
Found easily as it was left out in the open. I have placed it back where I thought it belonged. TFTC.
Hi all 
Glad this cache is still going strong! We have replaced the inner container so it is good and watertight again. Happy hunting!

Another beautiful reserve along the camden cycle way. I had no idea all of these places were here. The cycleway was like a highway of people today which was surprising because it's a weekday, but it was amazing weather. The GPS was all over the place trying to pinpoint this one. Spent a fair bit of time prodding in a hole in a tree quite far from the actual GZ. Once we found the right spot, it wasn't long before it was uncovered. Love the camo. very cute. The container itself has a big hole at the bottom and is a bit wet. The log book bag also has a hole, but is relatively dry still. Dropped off a TB. TFTC
Thanks for the cache, I found it in the grass, we will re-hide it were we thought it was supposed to be
Super easy to find once you look in the right spot beware of muggles as its right near a active area.

Decided to have a road trip sort of day today.
I'd noticed that by heading south I could pick up a cache with a new hidden date (I only had 4 left so this would make it 3) and a new D/T combination (making it 60).
And of course I'd pick up a few other caches on the way...

A did not attempt rather than a did not find.
Arrived here to see kids swarming over the play equipment, their mothers close by.
Older guy lurking around nearby isn't an option, so I left it.

Found with Kittykatch on a trip to Sydney via the old road through Cambden. Lovely day and lovely spot. Amazed with all the bell birds singing. Its very close to a playground and I think it would be a bit tricky if you were a male loitering around to wait out the kids and families to get the cache. We ended up having lunch and a coffee and enjoyed the setting. TFTC
Joolay and I pulled in here to grab the cache and have some lunch on our road trip to Penrith. What a beautiful spot with so many birds. Great hide. I haven't seen one like this before. I dropped a TB. Thanks a lot. Gets a FP from me
Had geokid use geo stealth as there were quite a few people about this. Great camo especially as high muggle area.

Introduced a few families to geocaching while finding this cache! Such a successful morning. Thanks for the cache
Found with Kim. Good hide. As with so many buried caches they can be subject to the inquisitive actions of birds, possums and other natives who relentlessly prowl around their territory looking for food etc in disturbed ground cover. Thanks for the cache.
Cache had not been hidden - was out in open close to GZ, was a rather easy find, quick lap, found first time looking. Great cover! (Bring your own pen/sharpener - pencils are going blunt)
Found with mrsladyface

Great cache spot, found with miss_cloud. Unfortunately cache was not well covered which made it an easy find but it has been placed back with new camo to cover it. Tftc.
Gps had us searching a bit off, after increasing search area cache revealed itself.
Logged our visit after going elbow deep in a scary hole. Great camo. Not seen that before. Find #152 TFTC
Finally found it! Went for a walk with mum and our dogs on the bike track. Took me way too long to find. But I persevered and found it! TFTC
My favourite cache of the day! Great to see a larger cache in a suburban park like this. Well placed also, nice spot, well hidden but not to hidden that it was to hard for the kids to find. We signed the log and returned it to its hidey hole. TFTC
This cache has had such a charmed existence so far! Arriving at Ground zero I found only the empty sistema container lying out in the open with its lid off. No sign of the log book, contents or camo. Guided by the last log I headed down to the drinking fountain and located the spot where they most likely tried to hide the camo, but there was nothing there... Looking a bit further afield, I found the camo sitting on top of a picnic table on the other side of the path. The log book was inside and intact and some local joggers had signed it! Logbook, container, contents and camo have now been reunited and re hidden in their proper spot. PLEASE PLEASE put it back properly so it is hidden! There is nothing much in it at present. The kids and I will be making Christmas decorations to restock it!
The cache found me! It was on the drinking fountain. I returned it to what I thought was its likely location. But it will need some attention to return it to it's secure camo spot. Love the case (no sistema container)
We are in town for a few days from N.E. Vic for the Geowife to compete in the Spartan Race. While she dragged herself up and down 14km of hills laced with barbed wire, the Geobairns and I set off for a more civilised activity.
We went out of our way to find Large containers that would have swaps for the Georbairns to peruse. This was an excellent decision, as we were delighted when we pulled up at GZ to see an great, clean little park. We found the nicely camoed container and did our duty, then stayed to have a quick play and enjoy the swarm of Rainbow Lorikeets hoping we had something tasty to offer them. Sadly we did not.
A great spot, and I'm going to give it a favourite point on behalf of the Geobairns.
