In an afternoon of caching in Werribee with John, Katrina & Shannon. Thanks to Shannon for finding this cache. It was good to find an empty block of land to park the geomobile on, if we hadn't it would have been a long walk as the streets are so norrow.
Found by Bob at 1610
I guess I should have been a bit quicker and attempted this series while it was still new as it doesn't appear as though the 1st four have survived. Anyway, I figured I might as well grab the 2 that are still ok and, after a bit of misdirection by TomTom, I managed to park close to GZ for this one and make a quick find in what looks to be a very pretty area along the river.

A few in this series seem to have a lot of DNFs, so only tried a couple. Was on a work trip so didn't have a bike, but imagine this would be a good route if I had. Thanks Wheelchair Access.
Found w Kiwi Friend.
Good solid day out cleaning some that were missed in earlier.

More enjoyable riding down this river,
Had a GREAT day, rode 64.5km on the Mountain bike collecting the PTPP caches and 10 more in the Werribee/Hoppers area, all on the bike, Thanks for the fun, Coooeeeeee.

found 1 in this series finally, seems pointless though as the rest have not been maintained in a while despite heaps on DNFs
The second of three 'Domino' finds for the evening. Had to watch my step here! I'm amazed at how clear the river water was. TNLN & SL at 6:40pm. Thanks again Wheelchair Access for the cache.
Found today at 1305.

B-Team now sensing a degree of urgency to complete the chase - time and distance not a problem - where do I park!?! Decided to take a chance and hope that the traffic would not be seriously inconvenienced by my choice of location. Now very aware of my prey, it was quickly located and details completed. TNLN Good Luck!
Found @ 3:25pm Grabbed the bikes for a day of caching in the area, had done #6 of the series six months, so decided to complete the others. 7th for the day. Lovely area by the river. TNLNSL TFTC
Found at 6:10PM by Ray and Maya on the 12th of Jan. We have decided to clean up a few caches in our own back yard for a change. Easy find. Thought this one would be hard to retrieve, being so close to the local swimming hole, but the kids were far more interested in their fun than us. TNLN. Thanks from The Nomads.
Came through here today on one of the hottest days this summer. I found the cache reasonably quickly, an interesting spot.
Thanks Wheelchair Access for the cache and the series. Well planted, well thought out.

And this find make it five for the series.
Cache location has been flooded recently and container was completely full of water
Emptied it out and dried contents as well as we could but everything (especially the logbook) is still very sodden Fortunately we had a pen with us that writes on wet paper [^]
A little cache maint. is definaately required here.
Pretty location by the way!

A perfect day on the bikes today with sandar10 and Geojess(woof). Thanks Wheelchair Access for the series. This was a great chance to do 2 things I love, cycling and
geocaching with the family.

We attempted all the domino caches today, really appreciated them and got to see some really nice places around Werribee River. Unfortunately, we were unable to locate Domino I.

MM and I decided to do the whole series today and it was very rewarding - exploring along the beautiful and full Werribee River and its beautified riverbank parkland.
Thank you so much WheelchairAccess for giving us such an enjoyable journey.
We really enjoyed watching the character of the river and its banks change as we explored via the Domino Chase.

Found with SSBJC - Geodad insisted I risk life and limb to give him the perfect shot. It was all worth it once cache was in hand. TFTC!

Fourteenth and last cache of the day on our Werribee Wander. The head was hurting and we had run out of water. But the owners of this series had invited us over for a drink and a cool down and we were going to take them up on the offer. Also as the weather cooled the muggles came out in force. Logged at 1525 hrs. Then off to see the owners for a quick drink. Thanks guys for your hospitality.
Found easily enough solo and on the hunt!!
Find # 264. TNLNSL. Found @ 2.15pm
Stood on a massive ants trail and got covered in ants on this one, just too eagre, and not careful I suppose!!

Found by Roma and Max.
Back on track we made another easy find as the container was out in the open, probably disturbed by dogs or an animal of some kind.
We signed the log and rehid the container as per the hint.
Thanks once more Wheelchair Access.

Found @ 12.15 a.m. today by Mr Emu & Son. No. 8 of 15 on our Big Day Out In Werribee.
GAFF3, because we accidently saw the hints on our PDA before looking for the cache. TNLNSL for this stage, but gathered our clue.
We both enjoyed the ride from cache to cache on this well-formed bike path. Thanks for the cache Wheelchair Access.

5th find for the day at 3:44pm. I stopped here for a bit and had a drink while I sat on the nice green grass (not much of this around nowadays).

This river section has been a real revelation, even though housing is encroaching at this part. I also wish that I had brought my bike as I intended - a great day and a really good cycle path. Thansk again Wheelchair Access.
Where do all these rocks suddenly appear from?
Really nice section of river (even if we are riding sidewards).
Thanks, Robmc.

We managed to park quite close to this one which was fortunate as once again the rain came

Fourth of sixteen finds in company with acts2youthgroup. We found it at 1115 after a short walk. I made no exchange, however, I left the Not in California Anymore Geocoin. Thanks to Wheelchair Access for the cache. Cheers, dak.
Fourth of nineteen cache finds for the day, I did this one in company with Dak. This was a nice easy find at 11:15. I dropped off the I Love Geocoin & Lamp Post Cache Geocoin and picked up Not in California Anymore Geocoin. Thanks Wheelchiar Access.
Found with Muzza, Kiwideb and Nexrex. From what I remember is was another quick one - I like those.
Found your cache today at 10:05am with muzza, alan-san and kiwideb.
TNLN. Thanks Wheelchair Access.
TNLN. Thanks Wheelchair Access.
Found in the company of Nexrex, Kiwideb and Alan-san at 10:05. We were averaging 10 minutes between finds in this series. By the time we all signed the log and returned the cache, returned to the car and drove to the next one, that was 10 minutes already. So essentially it took no time to find them. And this was no different. TNLN. Thanks for the cache.
G'day Wheelchair Access,
I found your cache today at 4:25pm as the eleventh of eighteen on my "Home Alone Caching Expedition". Another quick pick up. Thanks for our 7th Wheelchair Access cache.

A nice find for the family who were all out caching this fine summer afternoon. 5 from 5 so far.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks Wheelchair Access.

Now in a vastly different area to the first 4 in the series ,but still the newly constructed trail continues.Plenty of possible hide spots here and nearby houses to contend with,but luckliy made a quick hit,logged the bookwork and vanished fast .Thanks to Wheelchair Access for the fifth of seven.TNLN.
This, I think was our first as we parked between this one and the next and walked both ways to them. Lovely area especially in the late evening. Trouble is every muggle from miles around thought so too meaning we had to do a bit of artfull dodging.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.
*FTF* by Pickupfamily Dad 2015hrs. Back on the trail after a detour to Water the Garden. Pretty new estate on this part of the river. TNLN, TFTC.
