Didn't find. Pretty sure we found the remains of the cache though, message has been sent to owner

Disabling until I can check it.

We will come back

Gave it a good go, but ran out of time and had to call it. Where are the helpful neighbours when you need them!

Look for a good 20 minutes found something that look like the remains of the cache but not sure we will come back

Having a day out caching in the area with Jascat. Jascat had already found this cache so it was my turn for the smiley face. TFTC

Ok

No

Thanks! Tricky for us beginners but found it in the end

Im just trying my luck

TFTC

Thanks

Hard to find think small

Not bad

Being directly in view of overlooking windows makes me nervous, but retrieved without issue. Thanks!

One of the challenges that I am working on is finding 20 geocaches in every Victorian LGA. Over 3 different visits to the Hobson Bay LGA, I am now up to 16 finds. Today was the day to finish off this LGA and I seemed to have done it in style. 19 finds and no DNFs in this LGA. Most of them by Rob MC, so big thanks to this CO. The main target for today was the Newport Lakes Reserve, and it was a lovely day for a stroll around this beautiful reserve. Minimal people in the area and most caches found in good condition. Most log books do 'appear' full, but only because everyone seems to write on a new page. Last find in the area and clearly back in Suburbia with all the cars passing.Thanks for the cache, Rob MC.Hunter

Super fun!

TFTC!

Paying my geocaching tax as 15 April is Tax Day in the USA. Until now it was one of the few dates that I hadn't found a caching. I'm on a late-night/early morning caching run hoping for 12 out of 12 in the park. TFTC

Fun find, took a little while but great little cache

Easy find thanks

Back today to get the rest in this beautiful reserve. Sl thanks for the cache

Had to log before my battery died took a minute but found tftc cache name makes sense when you find it lol

On secondment to Melbourne, Australia, combined with short holidays here and there. Day 26/74, Friday. Today, I first worked some hours in the morning. Then I headed to Newport and made a long walk around the LOVELY Newport Lakes Reserve, enjoying the views, nice weather and, of course, many geocaches in the area. I had the best day! After all that fun I returned to my place of accommodation and continued working, fitting to the schedules of my Finnish colleagues who just started their day. This one took a while as I was looking for a T1. This is not a T1. But found it eventually. Thank you for the cache and greetings from Vaasa, Finland!

FTF That was a good hide, remember kids, not everything is in the obvious spot

A very trick find. Took ages to hunt down. TFTC

Thanks thats a great little one that finished my day off doing all the caches at Newport Lakes reserve

Nice one! Good challenge

A nice easy find to start the Lakes tour. Very thoughtful statue entrance to park. TFTC Rob

Seemed like a busy Sunday with everyone enjoying the sun today. Tails up and heads down

Just when i thought my stretching for the day was done. GPS was playing up a little on me but eventually spotted this cache.

Quick and easy find after I checked the hint. Tx for bringing me out today.

An impressive sculpture to peruse before beginning the search for the micro. A car was parked nearby so some stealth was needed but once it was spotted the friendly neighbour asked if we needed help as she knew where it was …..sprung! Thankfully it seems she knows of geocaching and is more than happy to steer people in the right direction.
Thanks Robmc for the placement.

Thanks the the helpful neighbours

Lovely visit to parkrun this morning, then nearby breakfast before grabbing this micro on the way back to the car. Love the sculpture!

Hints certainly gave this a very nice helping hand.
Love the sculpture. Very cute

So happy to find this little guy, love the duck statue!

Well hidden cute statue

Oo! Tricky one! Took a little bit of time but thanks to hints, found it! Nice hiding spot! Tftc!

I was here today with a Birdlife Melbourne Photographic group and I took the opportunity to look for a few geocaches during the visit. This was an interesting sculpture and fitted in with the reason for the visit. The search took some time but all was good in the end. Thanks to Robmc for the cache.

FUF009 is visiting so we are having a caching day around Willy, Altona and Newport. Avenging a dnf for me here. Tftc

Find # 12517

Found with sharkiefan.

Another weekend down in the big smoke with my buddy

Focusing on Labs a couple of challenges and the odd physical cache that pops up on the map.

After phones settled, we made the grab.
Interesting diver


TFTC Robmc

So Tiny!!

Tricky nice one

Quick find to end my day in this park

I had come over the the western suburbs to pick up some more finds for a couple of LGA challenges that I am working on... having found a few caches in the Maribyrnong LGA, I relocated to the Hobsons Bay LGA after lunch. I targeted the Newport Lakes Reserve because there are plenty of caches to find here... with a quick stop on the way in for this one.

Thanks **Robmc** for placing this cache.

Had some spare time whilst waiting for other family members to arrive for a visit to the Science Works museum so headed to the quarry to seek out a few caches

This one was found in good condition after a short search
Many thanx to Robmc
