Logs
This day TaurusSix and I had a set number of caches to find, and we were one third of the way through those we needed. We would have been half way if not for a steady stream of smokers choosing to smoke right next to the cache down the road and a large shopping establishment. It appears that today is a day to look for geocaches at very busy locations that have muggles coming to and fro in various combinations of routes. We waiting in the parked car, conveniently close by GZ, until there was a gap in traffic. We jumped out and looked for the cache, spotting it just as a new raft of muggles approached from the various directions possible. We slowly walked away and back again in time for the next gap, upon which the cache was retrieved and taken back to the car.In the car we wrote on the log. Easier said than done. Film of moisture was on the log and the ink from our pen smeared all too easily. We had our symbols drawn, but had no hope of spelling out our names. To returning the cache we put our minds next, which like before required waiting for the right time when the chances of muggle observation was sufficiently low.richlink, we thank you for hiding this cache for us to find.
Can’t believe I found it!! Had a thorough look for the usual suspects (mint tins, nanos etc) with no success. Muggles parked right next to me so I had to retreat for a minute. Reading the logs let me know there was something special about this cache. Once the muggles left, I had a closer look and it fell right into my hands! Nothing beats that feeling . Thanks for introducing me to a new type of cache, what an adventure! ️
Bunadoorian and I came to this cache as I needed the date placed to fill a hole in my Calendar. This is a very clever cache - but not quite what we expected to see. TFTC and for placing this cache for us to find - richlink.
Like a couple of other caches Grub62 and I have found today it was not what we thought we were looking for. But clever Grub62 was able to locate the cache. Seeing as how this cache was hidden on a date she needed for a challenge it was good to be able to place a smiley face against it. TFTC.
Find 41 of 44 with 4 DNFs on a full day of bike riding around Bunbury for WAGB2022.

In Bunbury and Collie for WAGB2022! A massive weekend of caching and catching up with friends. A big thank you to all the COs that have placed caches for this weekend, as well as COs maintained by existing listings. You have made this weekend what it is! Apologies for the generic logs. Cheers richlink!
Day 5 of WAGB22 week, monster day driving down to Boyanup for FTF, then cleaned up the last of caches in Donnybrook before heading to outer Bunbury, Eaton and Australind.
The highlight was the 16km ride down the peninsula before the Welcome to Bunbury event.
Why stop there, out to Dalyellup and inner City Bunbury. Today totalled 95 finds, 9 FTF and 5 DNF’s.
Thanks to all the cache owners and sorry about the generic text.

Wondering if it’s been moved maybe? Searched quite thoroughly (or at least we like to think so) and for a good 10 minutes before we gave up
Apologies for the late log. I only recently (re)discovered this list of caches which I had picked up on my drive back from a very enjoyable long weekend in Margs. Being quite late on a Sunday by the time I reached Bunbury the retail stores and traders were all closed which made for the perfect time to grab a few caches here. This was one that I stopped off at. Parked up right next to GZ and spotted it straight away as I walked around from the car Always like these hides No problems here today - TFTC
All looks legit so very tricky to find, will remember that for future finds.
Saw this one as I approached so made a quick find at GZ. Great hide. Thanks.
In Bunbury for a couple of days and decided to find a few caches. Happy to say we found this one.

2nd day of our geocaching weekend. Thank you to the COs for placing and maintaining the caches. Its been a great weekend in Bunbury.
Very clever TFTC

Strolling towards the shopping mall while waiting for a car detail and just so happens there’s 2 caches along the way. Luckily recognized this type of cache straight away. Unluckily, had grabbed an eyeliner pencil instead of a real one, oopsie! Made the tidiest black smudge we could on the log. TFTC
Hi there richlink.
We found your cache **"Zap!"** today. (This makes our find count 23589).
Following through on our passion of walking around parks, lakes and along walking tracks we decided to attempt some caches in the Bunbury area today. We thoroughly enjoyed our walk and the scenery. We found 4 caches today & DNF'd 1.
Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 3m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thank you richlink for adding to our adventure.
Regards
Ian & Penny

The jinta mob has been a bit lacking in cache finds lately so Mrs jinta decided that a weekend away was in order to try and grab a few caches while exploring this area! We camped in Bunbury and headed away nice and early to grab a few caches around town and had an absolute blast collecting caches this weekend. Fave points will be awarded when deserved, thanks for putting this cache out. Cheers and TFTC.

Gwiber had to come to Bunbury today so the better half and I drove her down and we all did some caching as well once here. It drizzled most of the day so we ended up quite wet for the trip home. Most caches were quick finds with only a few of DNF's for the day mainly due to muggles.
Another quick find here. Log was signed and cache returned as found.
Thanks richlink for the cache.

Woohoo !!! Found it !!!
Out on a glorious summers day to do some caching.
3rd attempt at this one, finally found it. Meet CO at an event awhile ago and got a hint on it which made quite a bit easier. Love the type of cache, have heard about these but this is the first time I've seen one. Has given me some ideas for some of my future hides.
Great to be able to turn this cache into a smiley.

Had a look and found what I thought was the obvious cache...that is I hope it was the cache as if it wasn't, then someone should have their bottom smacked. Zap would be the appropriate term. Had to move along as people were gathering. Will return.
I had a quick look for this cache yesterday arvo and again early this morning before the traffic got busy for roughly over half an hour but still no find. I searched every where around gz. I have seen clever camos before but this one seems to be missing or it's too cleverly hidden for me to notice it
Quick find while in town to source some lunch for the family. As its ANZAC day most places are closed apart from the nearby pizza place, so while we waited for them I checked if a cache was close ... yes. TFTC.
Doing some shopping at the fabric store near by and saw that there was a cache right by. Quick easy find. It was wet and most of the names were blurry, but otherwise all good. TFTC!
Managed to find this one without raising suspicion and still having a good laugh with Blaze169
Its the first time I have seen one like this, clever hiding

A perfect sunny winter morning to find a few more caches in Bunbury.
Hardly any muggles around and mostly good hides.
I wasn't what to expect here, but was happy to make a quick find.
Thanks for the cache richlink,

Heading home after a weekend of mountain biking in Dunsborough. We stopped for the missus to engage in some fabric retail therapy and I took a short drive around to grab a couple of caches. Quickly found here. SL TFTC
We decided on a drive around Picton, to pick up some caches.
Good hide for the location.
Many thanks for the cache, richlink.

I heard there is a cache in Perth, that needs you to list your finds alphabetically to log it... by richlink Going through mine, I was only missing a z. And here was a close one! Choose a silly busy time to look for it, but Goldie52 provided cover for a quick. Luck was on my side, as the cache was exposed, making the find much easier. Squeezed our names onto the log and returned the cache to a likely secure spot. Tftc richlink, now to find the other one
