King Jnr - I had a good look at GZ - looked at the clue and knew I was in the exact right spot spent some time on my knees without any luck today.
The positioning of this one took me back to games played with brothers years ago - it made me feel like a kid again. TFTC.
The place was covered with muggles. Here a muggle, there a muggle, everywhere a muggle muggle. With a little stealth we managed to send the geo-kids in for the cache while geo-mum and geo-dad stood guard. [^] Thanks for the hunt.

We were lucky with this one. We pulled into the bottom park and without looking at the GPS Echo said that it might be better to drive up to the top to start....
Lucky for us that Spice decided to at least read the cache description first as the cache turned out to be less than 20m away from the car!
TNLNSL TFTC, find #608 for Echo & Spice.

Found @ 15:15. Had a dentist appointment nearby and was a little early. Found that this cache was nearby and if a quick find would just fill in the time nicely. It was a quick find. Now off to the dentist. Nowhere near as much fun.

I know the area above the cache having watched three grand-daughters play netball there. Left a glass ball. Let me know if you see any faces in it.
Found with Landsergruppe.
Landsergruppe had cache in hand and signed before we could all get out of the car. Guess it was an easy find!
Garmin now has switched to Night-Mode!

Found with Jyetara towards the end of a day's caching, I'm over 6 foot and had no trouble grabbing this one.
19.33pm.well this is it our last cache together Maccamob and i bones1 after starting in melbourne early and driving all over the place in his geoprado,seeing and learning so much.we found the right place to start but had to be very quiet so as not to disturb any body or any thing ( a snake perhaps) more likely a dog,there were lots of folk so close but we managed to find the prize ok and get away without being noticed. a neat little hide thanks, i must thank you for this cache and for Maccamob being such a good friend for this never to be forgotten day of australian caches thank you.sltn.patandjeff=bones1. now back to the cbd ogfmelbourne.
Found by David in company with Bones1 from UK at 1935. With fading light and a long drive ahead, this proved to be the last find of a successful day. We're not particularly comfortable searching so close to muggle back fences, but we tried to be quiet, and managed to find, log and depart without alerting any dogs or people to our presence.TNLN. Our thanks again to iseek54.
The Kittyhawks flew in and hit their target. A tricky cache with the barking dog, but managed to out manouver and hit the target all the same TFTC
Again I managed to park in the shade on a sunny although mild day - its amazing how the vehicle heats up. At gz the hiding area was obvious and I managed to find the cache without any difficulty. Afterwards I climbed the steps to see a whole area of netball courts quite empty on a lovely day. Thanks iseek54 for the cache.
This should have been a quick and easy cache but when you think you have spotted the quick way, just sometimes it might not be the wisest.
The cache was found by Cracker girl and I think I was the last to get ot GZ but I did bring thousands of burrs with me for a ride.
Many thanks to iseek54 for the cache in an area filled with various flora

Another find on our afternoon out with Mr & Mrs Coffee, lucky we had the place all to ourselves as we were looking high and low before the GPSr's settled down. Cracker Girl and Mr Coffee both headed off to the same location, Mr Coffee taking an unfortunate short cut as he filled his socks with thousands of grass seeds and was also beaten to the cache.
Thanks for the cache iseek54

Nice easy find, though I don't see how it could be difficult on a Saturday. It's not exactly in a main traffic area. Took nothing, left Bear key ring. Thanks.
An easy find - all becasue I had the place to myself and the fact that the cache was partially exposed. The only hassle being the dog over the fence that barked at my every sound! TNLN & SL at 1:35pm. TFTC! Regards, 38degsouth.
It took a little bit of finding to get to this one as I approached from the top and found a location that matched the hint! I gave up after 10 minutes and went to left, but as I made my way back down to my car I tried one last idea and was rewarded with a nicely hidden little cache.
Thanks,

Saturday, mid morning is NOT the time to do this one. Managed to get in and out without being seen. No coins in the cache. TFTC
Found at 1440. Was surprised how close I managed to park, and spotted the cache almost 30 away completely uncovered. Took the GC's as precaution and covered it up a little better.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Found today after a quick search. Not a soul in sight today although a dog did have a grumble from nearby. Thanks!
Easy find but forgot to put our name in the log. Didn't know the courts were nearby.

just had to place this coin in because have been holding it for a while and I wasn't going caching any time so I placed in valley to keep it on it's journey.
1588. Lots of red around GZ at the moment but up and down. Glad I was here when other activities weren't as that would definately make it a lot harder.

Thought I would do a few caches while I waited for my daughter’s train from the city. This was a nice park. TFTC. Cheers Ric.
nice use of the world "cubby" in the hint. didn't notice the bug so didn't take it. TFTC
Nice spot, although I have to wonder whether the cache will survive the first group of 10yo boys who come along.

We parked in the bottom carpark which was quite deserted on this Sunday morning. An easy find after that.
Thanks

A nice little hidden away spot that was fairly easily accessed by feathertop and I.

Monday nights might be another time when muggles abound. There was a game on but we were pretty much out of sight down below. Also had to avoid a bloke in his backyard who was even closer but I think we managed that OK. This one is just a few hundred metres from a friends house but we didn't visit. Caches to get!
Thanks indeed

The netball game was in full flight tonight. Fortunately, we didn't need to get that close.
Thanks, Robmc.
Thanks, Robmc.
Had fun finding this (after a misadventure in someone's backyard) - new to geocaching. Good hide.
Found at 2.10pm GAFF1 in the company of Rabbitto. We were heading for the original spot, when suddenly we found that we were just 45m from GZ, so we pulled up and to the sound of an aging woofer over the fence we found the cache quickly. Thanks iseek54
This is probably the laziest cache we have ever done in regards to driving. It has it's own dedicated carpark (well, at least on weekends)! Very nice
Fun find despite muggle dog behind fence.

This was my 4th geocache for the day and my 7th geocache for my Melbourne holiday. The GPS lead us to all the right roads. So I didn't have much of a challenge. But I went up to the carpark by accident. but I was still able to easily access the cache from the car park. An easy find. No muggles. Cool container. A cool spot for a cache. What an awesome area.

A quick cache for a cool area.

We were in the area so we thought why not go look just in case it had been replaced, but after avoiding the glare of the muggle lady who entered the nearby pavilion, we searched and could not find anything. A call to Geodes confirmed that it was still offline. Hope it is back soon.
Sorry guy's didn't get around to putting this cache back out in a better spot this weekend. Hopefully will put out as soon as possible.
will be moving this cache and planting it in a safer a better place around the same location should be back by monday 1st september (next monday) hopefully

An easy find today in an obvious place. Tricky to get at if you have short arms, however the host is getting that trampled look now and you may have to move it before summer.
Thanks for the cache iseek54.

My Tomtom got me there and as i pulled in to the parking area I had worked out where is was going to be, no need for the gps on this one, There was no one around so I had the place to my self I bet it would be a different story in netball season. Thanks iseek54 for the cache.
Found by Bob at 1045
This one was another reason for me to be out this way on a miserable, cold, wet day in August - anything to keep those muggles tucked up inside - and I achieved this to perfection . I was able to park my bike within 2m of the cache and make a very quick and totally undisturbed find - although, as detailed in the cache notes, this is unlikely to be a possibility when the nearby facilities are in use .

Thanks again iseek54

Nice early day caching with barcoder, My 5th cache of 11 for the day found at 0755. Thanks so much for the cache we had to duck rain most of the day. Very cold but at lest the rain had stopped.
I found my 1st iseek54 cache at 5:40pm as a quick divert on the way home. This is going to be one tough cache to crack at varying times of the day/week and given it's high exposure it may have a short life. The cache was an easy find but I had to go for the quick grab, walk away to log and a quick replace on the return walk past. I don't believe I was spotted but it is difficult to tell. Thanks for the cache from D B-A.
found it on my way home. quick and easy find. Had to wait for some kids to go past and them i got it.

FTF! And my first ever successful night cache.
I was logging my day's finds when this one came through on email. Living only 1.2km away, I had to go for it. Mrs DelBoy1203 wasn't too impressed...
