Picking up some more caches with ilook4geo today, mostly in the outer areas of Darwin. Found some interesting and fun caches and added both names to each log found. Most were quick and easy finds. Thank you to fossickerpb for placing this cache.

Sneaky! Spent about 20 min hunting, but I was focussed on the wrong spot. Read through older comments, widened my search and bingo! Container in hand. Container itself is partially broken, but it's protected from the elements enough that the replacement log is nice and dry. I love the cache!

Our last day riding our bikes in Darwin, and we decided to ride to Palmerston, 'Not so Great' Bloody hot and humid, but we did it another 50klm days ride. Nice riding around the suburbs, not so nice all the barking dogs that we came across.

Visiting Darwin from down south I was becoming a little despondent with 5 DNF's in a row but today I got my geo eyes back and found and signed your cache.
In fact I put my hand on this one first place I looked.
Bad news is , it is very damp and needs attention soon.
 
21-Jul-18
Today we explored Darwin and surrounds picking up a few caches on the way and this was one of them.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Hey this one took me far too long to locate. I missed it on this first pass and tried other spots without luck. Backtracking I eventually made the find. Sneaky container. Log signed and back safe again.
Thanks

This has been my closest to home unfound (*missing) so I was very happy when I noticed Jane Tour had put out a replacement. Stopped on my way to work - not the best time as there was quite a lot of traffic so I did my best to look like I'd broken down, which was fine until a police car cruised past and I was convinced he was going to stop and "help" me. Luckily he continued on and I was able to grab the cache, sign the log and continue on to work. TFTC fossickerpb and for the maintenance Jane Tour.

Today we drove to Palmerston to have a look around the new areas, check out the shops & find some caches.
We felt very exposed here, as there is no cover in any direction.
Had to stand back and wait until there were no cars or muggles before we could retrieve the cache.
A sneaky little hide.
Thanks for the cache, fossickerpb.
