Description

Toy Box Raid 5

My fifth entry for the GCA movables competition 2012.

As usual I failed to plan ahead for this years competition and have to resort to the toy box raid to come up with entries. At least this years theme means plenty of toys to choose from.

This one chosen by geokid #4.

Have fun finding and moving these around and please log any dnfs so I can keep an eye out if they go missing.

Looks like this one is gone.
Thanks to all who moved it around.

Did a bit of a muster on old moveables around Canberra and moved then on to greener pastures (Victoria), however this one could not be found. If the cache was at the entrance of the homestead, there is a chance it could have been found by the grounds folk....and removed.

Sadly I think it should be archived....

03-Oct-16
My Garmin's GZ did not appear to be at an obvious place to hide the cache, but I expanded the search, but still couldn't find it. Too many places to hide a micro sized cache, and without a hint...I called this a DNF.

TBR 5 - RC has moved yet again!

Hope someone else will now discover him soon, and keep him going along on his journey.

His new hiding place isn't very difficult at all.

Noticed that one yesterday but was otherwise engaged. Today looked good for a walk from Blackheath to Medlow bath so this one was picked up on the way. In the end I walked to Katoomba.
Now to move you.

Mmmm........ Not sure what the story is here. We actually picked this up near the Bluies Spring event in Lennox Park. This was located at the co-ordinates for GA7004 Bucking the Trend #3 Blue Ace. Goodness knows where that one is. This one TBR5-RC was meant to be in Hazelbrook. It wasn't. Anyway we've got it now and will drop off as soon as we can - however it may not be until we get back from overseas in a couple of weeks.

Thanks

GCA 1107 - 10890. Found in the hands of Sol de Lune.

Nice to grab such a selection of moveables in one hit. Glad to see these still moving around.

TFTC !!

I find that the moveables are a great addition to geocaching. The fun of chasing them around - sometimes finding them in place - sometimes not - puts a bit more interest on the Geocaching Australia side of things. These games also tend to boost the numbers of moveables around - especially in December and January - perfect time to spend a bit more time caching away in Summer and / or holidays. My favourites tend to be the Gnomes - memories of a misspent childhood come to mind.... Lol.
 
15-Jul-15
Passed to me temporarily to find from LuckyL10n. Pass back shortly for hiding. Keep on rolling...
Thanks for the cache.

Moved on quickly on the way home while the kids played in the playground. Should be close enough for cachers with kids and far enough away for cahers without. Travel far little wheel.

Found this time. It's amazing how much it feels like a rock.

Picked up a couple from this Power Trail, (only picked up the numbers we needed ) and dropped off 5 too then went to another nearby park, then Eley Rd GC Cache then to Wattle Park to clear out the ones there before the working bee. Got back to the car and realised we were on 0km petrol - GULP!! Asked GPS for closest Petrol station and drove to it - it LIED! Kept driving and about 3kms later finally found a Petrol Station - Phew!! MMelb was home by himnself so it would have been awful if we ran out and had to walk to a station and back to the car and would have been home much later!! The Dramas of caching lol!

*FTF* on a big night - aka no sleep... Thanks quiet1_au I had a blast chasing your caches..

The heavens opened up a few caches back and the heavy rains continued through this cache and several more hours.. it didn't stop pouring for until I was closer to Mitcham / Vermont.. Thanks for the rain and the cache..

I nearly gave up on this one, the rain was soaking through, my phone didn't want to pay attention to my fingers and I was cold.. but hey.. perserverance and a little luck.. Thanks..
