Logs
**This was 1 of 28 caches that was found during the 4th 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 logs on everything.
After an very nice ride up in the tram this was the first cache I walked to.
*When I 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.*

Our first cache in Hong Kong. As we reached bit early, than many other visitors it was easy to have a muggle-less find here. TFTC

Einfach gefunden, aber wir mussten einen Muggel abwarten, bis wir nach der Dose greifen konnten.

My first Hong Kong cache. I arrived from Australia this morning with a group of workmates and after a couple of meetings headed up on the tram to the peak. A quick find at a very quiet time near GZ. I grabbed some TBs to move on. Meanwhile the others kept busy with sightseeing and shopping. TFTC
I found this cache during a one week stay in Hong Kong. Really an amazing city.

During our visit of the peak we where able to locate this cache. A reply quick found.
First cache on Hong Kong Island! Also dropped off a new trackable. Please keep it going if you pick it up. TFTC!
Found the cave but not the cache. Claiming it as others seem to have done. Tftc
Like others we found the very obvious location but even searching with a torch there's no sign of the cache. It seems odd to see that others before us have:
A. Logged a find without finding an actual cache and
B. the previous log even drops a geocoin? Perhaps they've dropped the coin into an empty hole? Or maybe they've done what we've done which is log all from home and have written their log on the wrong cache page?
Either way, we're logging a DNF. It was a great trip up on the tram though

For the First Time I would log a DNF, cause after 20 minutes climbing and walking around the whole area, I found the cave but not the lost box. So I Create a DNF and later a Find. In the Owner dosn't like this, please contact, I delete the find.
Found only the Cave, Photo may I send.
Thanks to the owner for our [#--2374--]!

After arriving in Hong Kong last night ahead of boarding Celebrity Millennium on Sunday for a cruise to Singapore, the Peak was naturally on our list of must-visit places. We headed up on the funicular railway this afternoon and took in the view from the top ... a pretty awesome view I must say, even if all the clouds/haze/smog limited visibility from up there. I took the opportunity to grab a couple of nearby caches while the rest of the group ordered coffees ... I was pleased that both proved to be quick finds so that I didn't miss out on coffee.
Thanks to Agito for placing this cache up here.

Flew over the night from Auckland. While waiting for our hotel room, did a nice 8-10 km walk upq there. Quick find. Tftc
After visiting HK Park , we took the Peak Tram and proceeded to this cache. Quick find by HappyHart Junior. Had to wait several minutes to replace the cache as a large group of school children were passing on a nature walk. TFTC. Left a Grasshopper TB to continue on its journey, that i picked up a couple of months ago back in Bath, UK. It likes to travel. Also visited by Bag Puss Travel Bug on its way to Queensland, Australia
After finishing the day's meetings, there was still time to explore the Peak. It was an easy stroll over from the observation area to grab this quick find. I picked up the traveler to help him on his way.

Nice hide and with a torch we could easily find it at night after watching the amazing view from peak. Put TB in.
Found this cache after using the peak tram to the top spot of Hongkong. Nice hiding place, thank you!
I found it quickly, nice for my first cache in HK area. Met a local geocacher !
No TB inside despite the inventory....

At first I was not sure if I am allowed to enter this road, but it is only closed to motorized vehicles and bicycles. Found the cache immediately thanks to the helpful hint. There is a Munzee very close as well. Nice!
Thank you for hiding this geocache!

First one near the great peak view unfortunately not there so we have replaced the Cache today! Welcome.
Great spot for a cache, but it was nowhere to be found. I reached as far under the step as I could, and also looked with a flashlight to no avail!
Nearly clear sky so our visit to Peak was very successful. Great view all over HK. Greetings from Finland!TB and CB out. Favo of course will come from us. TCTC!
Hello Cache Owner:
I'm checking up on caches that have had the "Needs Maintenance" attribute set in case you didn't see the "Needs Maintenance" log e-mail come in or you didn't notice the "Needs Maintenance" attribute that is currently displayed on your cache page.
In many situations, you may have already performed maintenance and the cache is all right. If that's the case, you can clear the "Needs Maintenance" attribute (the white cross in the red square) from your cache page by clicking on "log your visit" and writing an "Owner Maintenance" log.
If you haven't checked on your cache since a cacher wrote a "Needs Maintenance" log, please do so soon so new visitors have a good experience finding your cache.
Clearing the "Needs Maintenance" attribute when your cache is all right keeps your cache page accurate and will potentially brings more cachers to your hide since some cachers filter out caches that have that attribute set.
No further Reviewer action will be taken on the cache UNLESS there additional issues such as an extended string of DNF logs or a "Needs Archived" log.
Thanks for your help!

P.S. I'll be covering this area for at least the next few months while Crow T Robot and I fill in for erik88l-r who is taking a well-deserved break after thirteen years of reviewing.

Did not find. Found a nice hiding place matching the gps and the hint, but no cache
With TaurusSix I was confident I was in the correct spot, but a cache eluded my eyes.
We are the FAVA family; mom, dad, son 8 and daughter 11, all Danish, but living in Switzerland. We are on a 12 1/2 year anniversary vacation, a 16 days trip around Asia, starting in Hong Kong, then crusing to Taiwan, Vietnam and Thailand, ending in Singapore. Along the way we hope to find as many caches as we can.
During our stay in Hong Kong we came across this cache.
Despite the DNF, thanks to the cacheowner for taking us here.

First cache in Hong Kong. Had a fantastic ride on the tram and made the find quickly. Lots of mosquitoes in the area so I signed the log and headed off to the observation deck. Thanks!
On a tour to the Peak from the Sapphire Princess. Beautiful sight from up here and such a nice trail. A muggle was hanging around but we manages to make the grab. Took TB and will take it with us back to Canada. Left a Canada key chain. SL TFTC
Finally, a cache in Hongkong with space for a Travel Bug. sorry it took me so long to log it.
Nice walking around on the Hill/mountain. A bit overcrowded at the station, but really quiete and relaxing at the cache site. Thank you for hiding this here! (=

Found it but couldn't sign it due to muffles doing gardening above and watching us with eagle eyes!!!
The location was clear. I just had to wait for a muggle sitting on the bench to leave
Could someone please check if my "Norwegian Flag Micro Geocoin" is still in this cache?
Kindly regards amk123

Last destination of our China trip is Hong Kong. Today, we explored town and search some caches. Thank you!
One of only two caches I had time to go and find. I had planned to do the loop walk, but having to wait for a very long time to get up kinda trashed my plans

A muggler was sitting close to the cache. As he made a phone call he lost concentration and I made my move.
Took a tb out for a trip back to Sweden.

I was driven by a new cache nearby to come to the Peak again, and also grab this one when I walk by. With the clear hint provided, and a torch in hand, the cache can be found quickly even it is already very dark.
What a pity that I cannot see any good view! Should come earlier next time.
TFTCSL!!
No TB found there

Rainy and fantastic walk. Took the tram to the peak. TFTC! Captured a pirate to rake for a ride.
Another nice cache around the Peak. Not too sure if you can rate this one as a classic 24/7 cache but we found it using the flashlight of our mobile phones.
TFTC!
Dropped 2 TBs. Please help to move them along.
