Council landscaping in the area has meant that the original position is no longer suitable to host a cache

It was time for another late night walk at around 9:30 so I drove over to the Mount Waverley shops by the station and walked over to this cache.

Once at GZ it took double checking a handful of spots before I spotted the cache. Log signed and returned as found. Due to the slight dampness inside I am quite certain that my signature will soon be nothing more than a purple smudge.

Happy to report that the cache is in good condition and the log (although slightly damp) is still perfectly functional.

A busy weekend of events, CITOs, and occasional caches.
Variable weather, but stayed dry most of the time.

A pile of dog walking muggles appeared just as I pulled up, fortunately they were walking through the park and were soon gone.
A quick find and sign before the next group arrived.
Thanks, Robmc.

I failed to find this on my last visit but had no trouble today.

Thanks Cherryslice88 for the cache.

This another quiet park. Arriving at GZ there seemed to be a few likely locations for the cache but initially nothing was found. Widening the search a little further I finally spotted the container. The search probably took a little longer than it should have but all was good in the end. Thanks to Cherryslice88 for the cache.
 
18-Apr-23
New to caching so it's a little deflating when something marked as easy with no hint leaves us empty handed... will try again soon maybe we need a better eye
 
07-Apr-23
TFTC that was not easy
 
02-Apr-23
Third one today with no luck
Marked for a return bout
 
02-Apr-23
A beautiful day to do some much needed maintenance on my two wheels.
I didn't notice it earlier while rummaging in the bushes but I soon noticed the clip clip of secateurs. Hopefully the grandma didn't notice me.

Time to beat it. Two gigantic mossies just tried to eat me.

A bit of a tricker cache to find here today, but all was well when we came across it.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks for placing this geocache here for us to find today for without those who would hide, there is nothing for those who would find.

Found by Facitman and j-facit at 17:20
After being a dormant cacher for about 6 months I found myself out caching for the second time in a couple of days. j-facit and I found ourselves with the need for an afternoon walk and as Mrs Facit was required near these caches we dropped her off and then explored the area.
We started near this cache and took the advice in the description and soon I had the cache in hand and the log signed.
Thanks Cherryslice88
 
06-Nov-21
Third times a charm! Thanks Cherryslice for the help Smile

Out for our exercise at this quaint little park. While there was some Muggles at the playground they were far enough away not to trouble us and it was Mrs Pooky who made a relatively quick easy find. TFTC.

*Found on the 10 Apr 2021 @ 12:08 pm.*
*Cache find # 11612.*

While on my way to Deakin University as a taxi service I thought that I would try and find a few caches along the way and this was one it stopped at.
This turned out to be the last with the exception of one adventure lab stage before arriving at my destination.
I headed over to GZ and started to inspect a particular object and the cache was found quickly after that.

**Thanks to Cherryslice88 for placing this cache.**

A beautiful Easter Saturday with nothing planned so decided to check out a few caches in the Burwood/Ashburton area.

Took a little longer than it should have, but had it in my little mitten free hand eventually.

I had a free evening tonight and the forecast was good so I put my electric scooter in the car and headed out for some caching.

Happy to make this DNF a smiley tonight.

Thanks to Cherryslice88 for the placement and fun.

I found this cache today on my Burwood to Glen Iris Parks an Gardens Tour. I found this one a bit open so I tucked it in a little better on leaving. Thanks from D B-A

I finally got out of the house today for my daily cache and walk. I am not sure why I hadn't got around to looking for this cache as I have found most of the CO's other caches around here. Although I don't remember it, I may have dropped by when there were lots of kids around and gave it a miss.

Anyhoo, I finally dropped by this cache today. There was a woman in her car parked near GZ so I had a quick survey of GZ and noticed a couple of likely hiding spots. I went for a walk around the park and luckily when I returned to GZ the car was gone. I checked out the two spots I noticed earlier and found the cache in one of them. I retrieved the cache and signed the log at 4:20 pm. TNLN. I then carefully returned the cache to its hiding spot. I used hand sanitiser before and after finding the cache.

Thanks Cherryslice88 for another well-hidden cache and for bringing me to this lovely park. I didn't find any mittens or kittens but I did find your cache.

There was a family playing in the playground and I was hoping this one would be on the other side of the hedge so we wouldn't be seen and thankfully it was. TFTC

After completing the nearby biscuit factory-themed cache I continued my evening stroll to this very neat (and dark) little park.

Coming here at night all was very quiet of course, as I traded one form of stealth for another. During the day I would have stood a much higher chance of detection. At night I was less likely to be spotted, but would look far more dodgy if I was.

In the end I found the cache and managed to do the signing stuff by flashlight without being detected. All for the best I feel. TFTC Smile
