Thanks allan_b for the cache. Now 12 years old.
It now has a cracked lid so thankfully dry inside but may need replacing. . Plastic has weakened. Left under small bush where I found it. Upside down. Quick find on a 40 km hike ride.

A peaceful spot for a rest. Well, as peaceful as you can get next to Eastlink. A nice quick find with no one else in sight. TFTC.
Thanks allan_b for showing us this relaxing retreat in the middle of a very busy area.

Found it!! A lot of people here, hubby found it...Hahaha, we had to take selfies, because we had strange looks at why we were in bushland hahahaha, my phone is probably going to run out of memory hahahaha. Still people walking pass. Stayed for 15 mins just in case someone was looking, put it back where we we found it #TFTC
This was one of those caches where my GPS said GZ is over there, no wait it's over here, no wait it's back over there.!!
Finally found the sneaky little devil peeping out at me. TFTC

Found early this morning. The hint did not fill me with confidence but luckily the cache was spotted quite quickly. In good condition.
Just on way home from work. Easy to find. Beautiful view of sunset go down. Thanks allan_b for placing the cache
Found with Pmk49. After the rain, i was definitely not wearing appropriate shoes for this terrain. Tftc!
Cmkoe3 and I found this one between the rain showers after visitng a friend in the area.

Find 1995
Wow this one had us searching. Lots of grasses and hidden spots. After about 20 mins I was in a certain location and this revealed its position. Quite hard and felt a bit lucky we finally spotted it. log signed and all back safe again.

Heading home and felt a great day to avenge an aborted search. With the amount of grass through here I felt it was going to be a tough search but did not take too long to find. Saw the cache peeking out at me taunting

Escaped the house early this morning to try and grab some caches in the Dandenong area. A bit of a frustrating search here, checking all the bushes and grasses, but got there eventually. TFTC!
That took us a lot longer to find that it should’ve. We search the whole area so thoroughly and yet we still missed where this one is hiding. Yellow happy face now on our map.
Out with the young lads this morning to find some caches. Eldest boy spotted first. Nice park.

Today we went caching in Dandenong and surroundings. Fortunately is was as hot as yesterday.
Found and logged together with Swerik, Mikaching and GPS-Wickie.

Today we more or less recovered from the Christmas eve party we joined last night. On the other hand a couple of caches a day keep the doctor away.
Thanks to allan_b for placing the cache.

Good fine, kinda hard to fine. Hint isn’t very helpful it’s not really grass. It’s a grey kinda bush. Good fun though.
I timed this one to absolute perfection. On the way from the car in the mid to late afternoon there wasn't a soul about allowing me to search GZ freely. Although 10 years (or thereabouts) of cacher 'love' has seen a fair flattening of the area there is still sufficient vegetation to require a bit of a hunt.
After a few minutes the cache was in hand and after duties were completed, re-hidden.
On the way back to the car two muggles which I had previously passed on the path were taking in the glorious view at the nearby viewing platform as the sun hung low in the sky. I probably still would've been able to find the cache but not without being nervous that the muggles would turn around and spot me. So very glad I found the cache on the way out.

Back in Victoria we picked up a few caches along the way and this was one of them.
Once we had the right grass clump we made an easy find at GZ.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Found it after a long hunt. If you know your plants don't take the hint to literally.tftc
Quick and easy cache to keep our streak going thanks for the cache allan_b With Angelique Anja.
Tally Tiger and I needed our cache of the day, so after doing some shopping, we headed off here to put another date on our streak! Thanks for a fun, quick cache allan_b!

this was a fun one to do but be careful on what u pick up because someone picked up a bag of poo thinking it was the item.
I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO WARN PEOPLE THERE ARE A LOT OF ANTS NESTS AMD BUGS IN THERE AND IT REALLY HURTS SO BE CAREFUL
Heute auf unserer Urlaubsreise bewußt diesen GC angesteuert, um unseren TB "Trabbi to go" zu bergen, der hier seit 5 Monaten vergebens auf seine Weiterreise wartete. Nun geht es erstmal weiter gen Heimat und dann von Deutschland aus zu neuen Zielen. TftC 
Third find of the day, located after a short search, took nothing, left nothing, TFTC
I'm intrigued with the brick artwork here. Very interesting. Nice spot, even if it is another wetlands. TFTC allan_b
After dropping off my wife for her Myki run from Berwick to Caulfield via each station, my daughter and I went caching.
Parking up the road we went for a nice walk thru this park. Daughter was confused about the bricks on a stand that she enjoyed moving around like a puzzle.
Cache was eventually found after searching under a number of grass plants.
Thanks for the cache Allan B

Just found my first cache! Signed book, took nothing. Didn't know what to expect. No muggles around or was it me? Birds chirping and clouds are becoming black. Went for a little walk around to explore the new place. Thanks for the cache.
This was my second attempt at finding this and I'm pleased to get the smiley! I was in a hurry as the sun was starting to go down and I still needed to ride back to Ringwood, and it was in my eyes as I examined the area. Then I spotted it, thanks
A short walk from oakpark in the unseasonal sun and my 5 y/o son and I made a quick find once we had picked the right geotrail. tftc - collected the duck tb
Found it! This is a really nice park. Have driven past this many times but have never stopped. Thank you for the cache and bringing me here. Have left a deadly duck here so it can move along.
My very first swap, have been prepared for awhile but first one I've found

Arrived nearby to see that a council worker mowing the grass had parked his tractor in the shade facing directly towards GZ. So the search required a bit of stealth but we were able to retrieve it and sign log without hopefully attracting any attention. TFTC
