I had a really good dig for this one, but just couldn’t find it. A couple of muggles came past, so I started handweeding the ivy as a guise. I think I touched every surface, but I’m not sure
Dug all the way down and around. Then checked on other holes. Though I had it at one point but I'd just dislodged a piece of tree. Oops.
I don't know...I had to run to an appointment so I could have searched a little more...but I really believed I'd done a good job. Especially since it's a D1.

A quick walk in the park .. there was really only one place it could be .. found it insite completely covered with leaves .. well hidden .. TFTC
Looked around the only tree that seemed to be under a tree near gz and in every hole but no luck. Perhaps muggled?
Just catching up on logs.... Found while in the city doing some Shebah driving. The log book was soaked and icky so I replaced it along with a new ziploc bag. A nice spot and quiet at this time of night, thanks for bringing me here.
I was in Melbourne for a sporting event and took some time off to visit this area and grab some caches. There are some very nice churches and parks in this part of Melbourne, and I enjoyed vising them all. Read the very generous hint, which helped. Unfortunately, as others have stated, it was difficult to sign the log. Then onto the next one. TFTH
I poked around a bit but got more accertive once the two almost adult Muggles left after their less than halfhearted kick of a soccer ball . Then the cache was quickly discovered. I suffered a knock to my noggin when I forgot the solid vine .

Dropped Geowife off at hospital and now have some time spare. GPS cords were a bit off, but the hint helped here. A quick search and it was spotted a little exposed.
Managed to sign the damp log sheet. Now all back safe.
No Trackable present.

Out and about to pickup a couple of caches for the LGA challenge.

Quick find in a lovely little park. Log is wet and nearly full so needs replacement. TFTC

A small detour after a visit to Cabrini Hospital today led us to this pretty park and the cache.
Log needs replacing - sadly, we did not have one with us today.
Took TB (only found one of the two listed here), will move it on.

I had played football down the road and decided to look for a cache or two in the area to fill a hole in my caching calendar. This looked like one I should be able to manage in the dark. Luckily I still had the head torch in the car from a night cache a few weeks ago! It didn't take too long to zero in on the hide, though it wasn't quite where the photo indicated. Interesting to see the old (full) log book - ended up signing next to a finder from 2010! TFTC!

Anzac Day, in and aroung the middle of the city grabbing a few caches with no muggles about, it was a quick find.
Thanks TFP.la for placing the cache for us to find.

Ventured out on a cold and miserable Melbourne day to fill agap in the calendar. With all the muggle repellent in the air we were free to search and the cache was soon in hand. TFTC
TFTC. Just came out of day procedure at Cabrini and convinced my dad to come and find the cache with me!
Found for the sake of Xavier.
Of all those collected by the bananas this was the last piece in the puzzle to satisfy the requirements of the hardest D5T5 challenge in Australia short of travelling the whole country.
Our challenge has been achieved by leaving Victoria once.
Mountains and Trees climbed. Millions of kilometers studied and travelled.
But it is this Keystone here that has build the bridge between success and failure.
Who would have thought.

Found while in the area after grabbing some scooter parts with my two boys and the trade off was that they give me some time in return to grab a few caches. We parked out on the main road and made our way to the gz and had the area to ourselves and we had a look about before my youngest located the cache container. Thanks TFP.la for the cache and for showing us this quaint little park.
This is such a lovely little park and the seat in the shade was most welcome for a short sit while signing the log for this cache. It was quickly and easily found and nobody was around while the cache was being attneded to. Thanks to TFP.la for this cache placement and the chance for a short break in the shade on a very hot day.
This cache certainly has longevity, and should last quite a while longer in this quaint little park.

Found! 26Nov16 @ 2.10pm; Find #70
As the description states, this would be a fantastic place to read a book. This is precisely what a muggle was doing when I wandered through this park to GZ, whilst letting his very playful puppy run around like crazy
Wondered if I was going to have to abandon the hunt, until I realised how the park is segmented. Made for a quick and easy find, sans dog. Such a peaceful place in the middle of surburbia. I can see why there is a dedicated bench closeby (which had flowers on it today; very sad).

In Melbourne today for a work meeting at Cabrini - ooh a nearby cache! With a little time on my hands I made a quick find here in a lovely little location. Many thanks
Found this cache on the first day of my Surf Event 2016 at Anglesea this weekend. My day started with getting up early in the morning to go and meet up with Lukie1987 at Holmesglen station but due to PTV being itself I was given the wrong timetable and was late to meeting with him and instead had to meet at Caulfield . This cache was a combined effort between me and Lukie1987 before meeting up with Noworries to head over to the Mega event. I would like to thank you for the cache and taking me to this new place
Out with buhfuhguh getting a few caches while waiting for n0w0rries to finsh work so we can head off for the mega. TFTC.
Very nice little park. Took the advice and read a book for a bit here. Took nothing left nothing. Log getting very full. Paul and Brenda.

While convalescing at nearby Cabrini Hospital I took a short exercise walk to this wonderful quiet corner of Melbourne. An easy enough find but log very wet and very full. Some action is needed by the CO as this park deserves a better cache. Thanks for the cache.
Found it today, nice find for my first cache! Left a blue watch. No trackable inside. Tftc
After an unexpected drive over this way to run an errand, we had a little look about for something to find to fill a box on the calendar. It was already dark, very cold and raining on and off, so we wanted to avoid long walks, complicated puzzles and were hoping not to have to hunt for a micro in the dark. This one looked like it would fit the bill nicely. We found a convenient park, wandered in and thanks to the generous hint made a quick find. While it is hard to appreciate in the dark, the park does look like a lovely little oasis in the middle of an otherwise busy spot. We made it back to the car just in time for the rain to start again, making us all the more grateful for an easy find. Thanks to TFP.la for a nice little find that finished our evening off perfectly!
What a lovely little sanctuary in the middle of busy Malvern, I would have stayed longer if it weren't the middle of winter right now! TFTC
Geokid grabbed this one on a cold but not rainy afternoon (thankfully). While muggle guy listened to his phone nearby, we signed the log and left a Halo action figure behind. No trackable was inside.

Tftc, quick find when I went on the right side. Ran into some of my muggle friends whilst doing it too
While a friend was visiting her son at the hospital, I wandered around and found this cache. Thanks.
GeoGranni has a specialist appointment nearby at the Cabrini Hospital, seeing it was such a nice day we walked the short distance down here and made a quick find. Granni was impressed with the variety in the established trees planted here. I was impressed with the pink trunk on the Lemon Scented Gum.

I love these parks in the middle of busy suburbs. Only a couple of muggles walked through the reserve while I was there and they were all Cabrini staff members. Tftc.
Easy find, only use hint if stuck. Pencil broken, logbook almost full. Found with benjibombers
Found last week while having a wander while my husband was in Cabrini having an operation. This is a beautiful park, sat and read for a while. Left two trackables to continue their travels. Many thanks for the cache TFP.la
Lovely little quiet place to spend a few hours (though I'm not liking the warning about the magpies...) TFTC
On the way to Cabrini Medical Centre and made a slight detour to fill in a few minutes. Found cache and signed the log. Nice quiet park. TFTC
Found it.the hint gives it away.nice little park.took something. Didnt have a small swapable so left $1.
Twas a quick find today, in between showers of rain. A quaint little park, thanks for showing it to us and for the hide.
Lovely little park, easy find. Swapped a toy for a cute little cat ring I know my niece will love
Yellow Hat trackable missing from this cache for some time. Kitty selfie travel bug about to start its journey. Currently in the care of Ariiamay.
Found it!!!! Lovely little park along with first trackable we have found taking the trackable to place in adifferent location tyvm
Late log - found 28 Jan 2016 with Bookwormkitty who took the opportunity to drop off her first trackable. Lovely little park. TFTC

Took the opportunity to pick up a couple of caches whilst wife had a Cabrini appt ~ too a euro coin & left hands bulldog clip ~ nice little spot in the shade as a break from the heat today ~ TFTC
Back to search after being scared off by magpies last year. Some of our predictions were wrong but with the hint we found it straight away! A lovely Park with some nice trees. TFTC
A beautiful Saturday evening but park was deserted and the cache was quickly located. Tftc
This cache has been annoying me for a while. I've looked twice before, the first time i could see it but there was a muggle sitting far too close for me to attempt to get it, and the second time i couldn't see it and due to a fear of spiders didn't feel like sticking my hand in unless i knew it was there. Went back today and got it immediately. TFTC
I found this one on the way home - it turned out to be a quick find with the hint all but giving its location away - tftc
Waiting around the hospital today i headed out here on a walk. I was surprised to find a few caches within the area. Cheers for the hides.
