DNF @ 22:15!
Wow, the first DNF for this cache!
Thought this would be an easy one to find while I was visiting friends in the area, but as it was at night and with only my phone light, it was quite tricky...
Very off put by the Red-backs living at the top of some of the poles, but still blindly had a poke around!
Time was short and I was with a couple of non-cachers so I decided to travel to another nearby cache to make my find to fill this day on the calendar.
Have since read the logs which suggest the Listed Coordinates are off...
Maybe next time!

While the cricket muggles where looking the other way geodad grabbed it.
Cache log book is in need of a bit of mantience.

P.S.
Where are the other caches in this series?

Quick grab on the last bit of the walk back to the car, after my circuit of the Maylands Peninsula tonight. Thanks.
My coords weren't out by too much. Not enough to make it a difficult find, anyway. TFTC.
Bring tall fellow, reach and pick the container for me and signed the log. Thanks The Robots.
Quick find and noone around except some tandom bike riders going past (??). Tftc!
Out for some evening geocaching with kiddo in tow... Mrs GeoCadeau made a quick find at 8:22pm then we sat down to log our visit and trade swag. Took a little while to place back in its hiding spot due to a friendly muggle and his cute little dog (hello Emmett from Guam 
).
After a brief chat, we were alone again and able to re-hide the cache.
T: Nothing
L: Nothing
Signed log. Replaced cache as we found it. TFTH!

Kids found it but it took teamwork to retrieve the cache. We weren't entirely sure about our answer to the clue but we probably won't do all the required caches anyway. Today we were happy just to be finding the cache. Thanks the_robots. The log was a full mess so we left a neat new log.
[:(!] Had this cache in hand in a matter of minutes but had to be very cagey because there were a group people on the oval with their dogs SL TFTC
Quick and easy find in the dark by hubby and GeoTeen, then a quick trip to solve the puzzle. One more to go then we go for the Booty!!

Note to self. In future remember that GPS device doesn't have road maps. Is too hard to drive 500m west when you are on a North/South road.

Quick find at GZ. Entertaining to watch some dogs at play. Particularly when a Labrador was attacked? by a little yap yap thing! All he dis was lay down and the other dog didn't know what to do! Meanwhile both owners were doing a fair bit of yelling. HeHe. TFTC The Robots
This was our second ever Geocache - pretty easy find; however, we got spotted by a muggle who asked what we had just picked out. Lesson learnt! First clue of the series noted down.
Out on a very early morning Caching run, grabbed this one with no problems.

When I first arrived at this one there was a chap sitting in the chairs watching the sunrise while his dog was running around the oval so I left and tackled another one close by. On my return the area was clear but as I approached a taxi pulled up in the car park. I started some stretching exercises near the GZ and when he wasn't looking made a quick grab.

Found at 1.40pm GAFF1. Easy when no one is around, but this would be very difficult on a sports day.
Thanks the_robots.

Found with Team YThere. Made this find very quickly after parking at the carpark. Had to make the return trip as last time there were some athletes downing a few beers which made the find dangerous. Will likely head off to do the remainder of this miniseries. TFTC.
Didnt even use the GPS for this one! Was great and quick find with noone around!

Took the dogs for a walk around the oval before looking for this one, there was no one about while walking around then once we started looking seemed liked every man and his dog decided to go for a walk. We waited and waited then quickly grabbed and signed. The log is very full and we never had any paper to put in. Thanks for this series.
Swung by at night after seeing a movie. Very dark at night in this park. South coordinates are ever so slightly off, but this is not hard to find. TFTC!
My GPS was reading several metres away from the hiding location so a little more time than was scheduled was spent on this one today. TFTC
found it but while we were writing in it a few people showed up so we had to wait about 20 min until they left
Found it!! Took nothing but left something third find, first alone. Bumblepie!! Whoop!!
third find, first alone. Bumblepie!! Whoop!!Not too much of a hunt as it was all quite - found in the first place I looked. Visiting a friend close by made this one a bonus. Clear skies.
Easy find but retrieving it was very diffiicult. If you are tall ok but being at 5feet 2inch lady it was a big task. Went back to the car for my umbrella but altough I could see it, it wouldn't come out. Found a small wooden pallete, put it at the highest point I could, held onto the pole and retrieved it. It was just as difficult replacing it! TFTCSL

A nice and easy find, as there were no muggles around during grand final.
TFTC and cheers from Germany.

Perth 10.15. Fortunately the oval was empty and I poked my hand in a few spots before I hit the right one. Thanks.
