Up from the south to spend a couple of days to have a look about and collect a few caches
at the same time. No luck here today maybe a bit of cache blindness.
Thanks stashaa for the caches I didn't get.

Another nice area visited today. SL TFTC

I think my family and I tried this one at some previous time without success but today, there it was just waiting for me to find. Cool. TFTC

Despite accurate coordinates, it still took a few minutes to locate this cache. Then the name of the cache made sense. Retrieval was a challenge for the shorter member of the team. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks stashaa for the cache in a lovely area.

Staying in Creswick, so up early on a fresh morning grabbing a few caches with Happy pants. Made another quick find just before heading back for breakfast.
Thanks stashaa for placing & maintaining the cache for us to find.

Out with Happy feet grabbing a few last caches around Creswick before heading back for a much needed and well earned coffee and breakfast. We found this one after looking in the first spot l checked, thanks stashaa for showing us this area. TFTC

Out and about with geo fam decided to knock over some of creswick. Pretty place for a cache

Wanted to revisit this hide because its the closest to my local scout hall before l move it on this week

While in the area with the youngest team members soccer, we couldn't resist trying to add a smile or two before we had to head home. Glad we had this lovely area to ourselves, Thanks stashaa

4:34:00 PM. Had the area to ourselves but still took a good search till we found the cache. Not a film container but had a log so signed it. Thanks stashaa for placing this cache.

The kids were happily playing at the nearby park and I suddenly thought I should be looking at my phone to see if there were caches nearby. I left my dad minding them and mum and I set off to look for the cache. We looked for a while and then eventually discovered it. Definitely not a film container though.

SL, and then went back to round the kids up and move on down the road. TFTC

A quick find. TFTC

This is a nice spot, i come here every Monday for luch with work. Finally decided it was time i logged the cache. TFTC

TFTC.Signed and returned.
A lovely area.

TFTC A few quick grabs while in Creswick

Thanks for the fun search

Found by Team Ladava during a visit to the delightful town of Creswick today with the showers of rain somehow adding to the enjoyment of a rare day out caching after the recent heat.
A bit of a wander around for this one with the poor reception under the trees but we got there after a few minutes.
Locations like this are 'the icing on the cake' of Geocaching with the locals hosting us anonymously to their favourite spots.

Many thanks for placing this cache, stashaa, for us and others to find.

That's great! Definitely not for the vertically challenged!

Quick find. First cubby hole I placed my hand. Last one as we head to SA tomorrow. Tftc

We've often driven past here but never stopped. Nice walk around the lake and a fun time looking for the cache. Thanks!

This took longer than should have

Found with adizella.

Tftc. Found with the TKELS clan. Lots of creepy crawlies.

Yeah. Found it before the Geo Kids

TFTC. #1 for the day, great grab by Clan McStormy.

Replaced with new container and ready to go.

Another DNF. Quite certain we were looking in the right place, at levels high and low, but were unsuccessful.

Searched all over with mazzymay and dipper but turned up nothing. Im pretty sure we were looking in the right one. Thanks anyway

No Good! Working solo and GPS had me between 2 likely hides, previous logs seem to suggest the larger of the two but after a fair hunt I couldn't find it in the dark. Clearly need Kelly with me on this one.

Daytrip to Creswick for some caching with Mum (becca85). We searched for a bit before spotting this one. TFTC

With a nice sunny day ahead of us, neisha07 and I set off on a little day trip for some caching in Creswick.
This one took us quite a few minutes, searching our way around all the nooks and crannies. TFTC

After searching around geo wife had this in her hand

Stopped here for lunch with jcody and wandered over to gz for the find.

Sad to see what once was a grand garden and what it has become.

1:27 pm

My heart sunk a bit when I saw GZ here realising that I'd be looking for a needle-in-a-haystack, or a micro-in-a-tree as the case may be! slacas was unphased though and pulled the stash from its hidey-hole in short shrift at 15:40. Phew.

TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks stashaa.

Just the spot for a tree hugger.

Nice place to put a cache. TFTC

Played here a lot as a kid and even on this tree on occasion, never found this though!

Out for a quick couple of Finds with JJ.1
we had visited this park for many seasons of tennis but were oblivious to geo caching till recently.

Quick find with geordiefamily and into the next

TFTC

Geo hubby found this one quickly. TFTC

Awesome gardens, great hiding place. TFTC!

Catching up on logs. Sorry for not recalling a good story.
I recall this one was MIA last attempt.

Hi Found it took some time but we got it. tftc

We didn't need racquet for this one, no one was playing tennis. A quick park and grab, what a great park on top of this cliff. Thanks for the hide.

Our last day in town. Brought the kids for a walk and play. Easy find. Thanks.

Tfac nice hide

TFTC
After 5 mins scratching around cache was finally in hand

After reading some of the other logs we quickly found it! TFTC!

Found while waiting for the mud run.

Nice view easy find

Eighth find on a beautiful day out with geobuddy BJ. Scratched my way around all the likely spots here infuriating some ants in the process. Finally read the previous logs and realised I was at the wrong level. Had container in hand soon after. TNLN. TFTC.

Lived on Creswick years ago and rember this as a better part of town
Signed and replaced

Nearly midnight and Leave No Traces and I have been at it all day. Good torch made the find easy. So much better when muggles are sleeping. TFTC

Good little hide, though not a film canister. Once again TarmacDT found the hidey hole, but I had the height to grab it! Haha. TFTC

Legoman9x found it. Tftc

Found with Winniethebear. Pretty easy find. Prob could do with better camo. maybe a bit of colour to blend in. TFTC

After a few false starts we soon had this in hand tftc.

Lovely walk around a lake which I'd only ever driven past. Thanks for this. beautiful spot.

This is a lovely park, with a lovely old shelter. At GZ the GPS was not surprisingly unsure, but the cache was in a very logical place, thanks stashaa.

Thanks for the cache. Cool cache. Geomum reached up for me.

Found at 15:00. Wandered around the lake and then walked up the hill to admire the views and find a cache. Thanks

3rd for the day, tricky but a neat cache, found with Muggle Hubby

Nice quick find.& a pleasant walk around.Left a tiny trade :0)

TFTC

Stolen from Lisa's grasp. So close... Good hide

Our very first find! Lots of fun, I think we're hooked.

Lovely park area and courts. Thankfully gz was away from the racqueteers so a searck and find was carried out with despatch. Thanks Stashaa

Nice hide with so many holes

Lovely afternoon with the rehfisch clan

TFTC found with the Tritonz

Found on the 11/2/14 with Wozzle68
TFTC
We felt like possums

I found it!!! Will the English mans first find!

Second time here for this one but success. It was an easy find today as my GPS was not jumping all over the place and I wasn't so tired as I was the other day. TFTC.

On a day out caching with LumpyJRB this was my first cache for the day and after a short search the cache was found. TFTC.

Nice walk through Mt Prospect Tennis Club to the spot. TFTH.

Parked on the road and enjoyed a walk around the lake. Gps was out 10m but soon found cache. Thanks

Nice easy find thanks

Found after a second look around, nice hide,TFTC

Found quite easily by looking in all the hidey holes. Somewhat thought it to be on the ground or covered up more. Actually a fairly straight forward stash. Eclipse tin in good shape. Log signed.
Tftc

Nice hide, dirty fingernails now!! Found it during a lunch break at an SES course

Lovely park..........

Nice hide in a part of Creswick I'd never been to before. We gave Geogranny a boost and she had the cache in had in no time.

Nice park went for a stroll soon found the cache.

Last find during my stay in Creswick for SES Peer & Chaplaincy training. A bit of thinking - scrabbling in the mind - then with the body, and oh... it's an eclipse mint tin!
TFTC's round Creswick Stashaa

five of six today. This cache has been on our list to find for some time. Thought we'd give the area a crack today. Geokids had a blast running around the park. TFTC

Found today in the company of Dutch Frangipani on our way to Creswick for a days caching. The weather was freezing cold with light fog and mist all day. It was hard to feel my fingers and toes at times and was glad to keep moving so we could warm up.

A great walk around the lake to find this one. GPS had us about 7 metres away but it could only be in one place. Searched and finally found it. Decided to have lunch in the rotunda and just enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

Thanks for the cache stashaa

Found with Sorceysal today while out for a day of caching in Creswick. While the sun was out when we left home the same could not be said for Creswick today. It was freezing and misty all day.
After a nice walk along the lake and through the park we found this spot. Took us a little while to find the cache but we soon did and also found a lovely spot nearby for lunch and a warm cuppa!! Thanks stashaa.

Find No. 390. Found with FUF009 at 2.50pm.

After a quick trip into Ballarat it was then off to Creswick to dof some cache hunting with our dog Penny on board.

Well we looked and looked and looked and looked and it sure had us stumped for a while but finally it was located. What a sneaky little hide. TFTC

Find #697 @1452

Found With Tyred n Cranky
After a quick trip into Ballarat it was off to Creswick to hunt down a few caches.

This one took us a few minutes to get our hands onto. but once again it was Mr Tyred n Cranky that managed to find it.

TFTC

Nipped into Ballarat on a rainy day with Bettyboo3747 to grab a few challenges, and grabbed a few more caches around Creswick on the way back to Daylesford.
Way too wet for a game today! Not for a cache though.
We started down by the lake and walked up to the top. Fabulous tree.
Fortunately the search wasn't long.
Thanks, Robmc.
