Logs
**This was one of 28 caches that was found by me during the 5th of 8 days in Hong Kong/Macau**
First of all, I would like to mention that this log is written on 14 August 2018. Thus almost 1,5 year after I was here and signed the logbook. And since I will return in the beginning of October it's time to write all logs.
*When I in late September saw that SAS had an low price offer on an direct flight from Arlanda, Sweden to Hong Kong international I booked an ticket without checking if I would get an vacation from work.*
*Fortunately it was possible to take a few days so I could now start to plan my stay in 2 new geocaching countries.*
*When I was back home I had 49 caches in Macau and 120 in Hong Kong to write "found it"-logs on.*

Right near my hotel! Hopefully I logged it without anybody noticing. It is very busy!
Last cache for the day walking back to our hotel from Causeway Bay. Awesome statue and cache easily found with in a few minutes. Cheers from Australia!
With the hint I managed to find the nano cache quite fast. Thanks for the cache.
After seeing a recent spoiler photo, that helped me narrow down where it was, and discover that out is not reachable from the sanctuary due to potted flowers and that it is currently best approached from the roadside 
Cheers Gav

Our second attempt at this one. Found it easily this time. Both the geoson and I are 100% sure we searched where we found it last time! TFTC.
I searched GZ in my first attempt but got no result. Has it been relocated to a easier find place? This time is very easy tftc.
Spent a few minutes trying to work out which one it was in. After a while, decided to dig deeper and cache was in hand. Log book full, so took a pic of it. TFTC! Greetings from Sydney.
Found it on 2nd attempt. I checked the map at home, and this time a very easy find. Cant believe I can miss that the first time! TFTC!
[#21] The hint is very useful, and save a lot of time on guessing which one of the few possible spots is the one true hiding location.
It took quite a thick face to find the cache here cos the island is surrounded by busy streets on both sides, and there is a bus stop nearby. To pull this off, I just did what everyone did these days, stood there and rubbed my phone like everyone else. One I did it I no longer look suspicious, cos I am now a fellow phone rub-er. Pretending to take photo while searching for the cache with my other hand is also very useful.

First geocache in Hong Kong, just a short walk after we checked in at our Hotel after we flew in today, first spot I tried and failed but Albida was successful, nice location, thanks
Note it took a while for my GPS to lock but I guess that is to be expected

HK & US12. Well Mtrax and I have made it to location one for this trip. Hong Kong ! This one was just up the road from the hotel, so we walked up. No luck with the GPS, but caching in any country seems to be the same when this stuff is around. Thanks.

I easily found the magnificent structure and the GPS pointed me to a likely spot but after searching trough a number of traffic light changes it was obvious that there was no cache there. I looked around and found another likely spot 10 metres away and this time the cache was easy to extract with no observation.
Thanks AirQ for an evening walk, got a little lost on the way home to the hotel though. Lucky we had our GPS. A quicker than expected retrieval and an awesome location. cheers
