Found with Snap Happy on our way to the Anglesea Mega. Thanks for bringing us here.
Couldnt open the container as it had been cross threaded and we spent nearly 15 miutes trying to get it open. Staped the lid.
Thanks Alansee for placing and maintaining this cache.

Even though this cache was recently archived I thought I'd have a look for it anyway. And yep, I think it's gone 
.
.After seven years and over 400 finds this has now been muggled twice recently. Time to let it go.
Another find in a interesting lot of caches while traveling along the western highway TFTC TNLN
A quick and easy find as we cache our way around the area over the long weekend. No trouble with nosy muggles today so taking care of business was a simple job. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.
Well that was the best maintenance ever. Many thanks to muff1 for their efforts in finding the wayward cache, then putting it in a good hiding spot, and then letting me know. 
I would give them a Favourite if I could!
I would give them a Favourite if I could!We found the cache container out in the open and placed it where we felt that it could go. Perhaps you would like to check. If you are unable to find the container please email us and we will let you know where we placed it.
We headed in, o one here - that is good. We drove as close as possible to GZ and then we looked and looked and looked. We gave up.
Sad we decided to leave making this our second DNF for the day, the other being Daddy Cool - Eagle Rock. When we returned to the car, the elves had placed the cache container onto a large pile of gravel for us to find.
We returned the container to the position we felt it may belong. SL TFTC

Quick and easy find during our Mel-Adl drive. TN, LN, SL. No TBs in the cache ;-( 6 TBs visited with us. Thanks!
This was day 72 of our trip out of Sydney to visit the southern states of Victoria and Tasmania and part two of the Victorian visit.
This was a very quick and easy find and there were no muggles around to hinder the hunt. After the log had been signed the cache was replaced where it had been found. Thank you for bringing us to this area and thank you for placing this cache for us and others to find.

On way home from Uluru to Melbourne and found this on the way. Awesome cache. TFTC 
Out and about with CAD in our new car - giving it a good run! Found this cache when we stopped to stretch our legs!
#2735 Thanks Alansee 4TC:)

pretended we were using the tree as a break spot to avoid raising the suspicions of the muggle on the other side of the rest stop. a nice easy find TFTC
Nanton34 and I decided to grab this one despite it being being on the other side of the road. There was a muggle nearby having a smoke do we had to show caution , but otherwise a quick find as we headed up to Stawell. Tftc
Final day of holidays, with the Chappies heading back from the Grampians to Melbourne. However, nobody's rushing so we took in another short walk, grabbed an ice cream (and the slowest lattes in existance!) and then headed home.
Intending to pick up a few caches on the way home, this was screamed convenience, so a quick pull over and hop out of the car and the cache was in hand. Beta male then escaped the confines of the back seat to play on the piles of gravel before being grappled back into the Skoda for the trip home.

A quick drive by on our way home from camping in the Grampians with the geokids (age 4 & 6) and the hubby for a few days of exploring. Thanks for the cache
Found this one during my lunch break while working in stawell. Unfortunately, I wasn't alone in the car park. Had to wait about 10 minutes until they left, then I was on to it. Found cache in good condition and well hidden.
Found this cache on my return trip to Melbourne after a day visit to the Grampians. The rest area was completely deserted so it was a simple matter of driving as close to GZ as possible, then stepping out to sign the logbook. Thanks for setting this up! Always good to breakup the driving with the satisfaction of a find.
After a great day caching in The Grampians , we are now heading for home along the highway, picking a few caches as we go.
Thanks Alansee for breaking up our trip.

Mrs. Kalianda09 is on the way up to Hopetoun for a couple of days and decided to swing past and grab this cache on the way. A quick find for me today in the likely spot. Thanks Alansee for the stop.

In Ararat for the events on the weekend as the weather turned rather yukky in the afternoon we decided to stick around another day to try and find some more caches in town.
Heading out in the morning the rain seemed to be holding off so we headed towards One tree hill first before picking up some more caches around town.

Wow, can't believe Pa stopped yet again. 3rd time this morning and just after we managed to pass a very big slow moving vehicle - actually thought we would end up behind him and his masses of pilot vehicles again, but we had morning tea and turned off before we caught up with them again. Another Alansee c ache and another good quick find which is always helpful when travelling. Pa engaged some muggles in conversation keeping their backs so I could quickly sign the log and return it to its hidey hole. Thanks for the good coords which are always a help. TNLN SL TFTC Alansee
Dianne and I spent the Easter long weekend at Adelaide.

On our [trip around the world](http://www.hoppundweg.piekar.de/) we came to Australia as well. We started in Tasmania, rented a campervan in Melbourne and went up the Eastcoast to Cairns. Then we drove all the way to the Red Centre. We finished in Darwin. We searched many caches and found almost every cache we searched for 
. Thanks to all the owners of these caches. Now, 2 years later, we recognized, we will never be able to log every cache seperately... So: Sorry for this standard logtext and thanks for one of the caches, which accompanied us on our journey.
