Logs

One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Checked on this a week ago and it is definitely gone. We found this one a few months ago and knew where it should have been. There is what looks like new fencing around the bars so suspect it must have been muggled when it was being installed. Cache has not been found in 2 months and no CO response in 1 month. Suggest this is archived.
 
15-Jun-14
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

After not finding this one this morning I have to log a DNF the 8th DNF for Bondi Beach Troll since 17th April
Had I read the logs before going to Bondi Beach I would not have wasted my time even looking for this one
Cache owner needs to do something about it

Searched for some time before attending a performance of Trouble at Bondi Beach Pavillion Theatre with a geo-daughter. http://rocksurfers.org/trouble/

Found this one during our month long tour of SE Australia. It is our intention to find as many caches as possible during our stay and as a result logistics dictate that this generic log will have to suffice .Hope the cache owners, to whom we extend our gratitude for their efforts, will all understand the reasons for this.All good wishes from us both.

Visiting lovely Sydney on a tour from Kansas in the United States. Also saying G'day Mate to a grand niece who is doing a semester at University of Technology near Bondi. Found this little troll on the ground but put it back on the high rail so it would be very reachable but not visible on the ground. TFTC

On holiday in Australia with my Mum and Dad to see the sights and enjoy the weather which is a far cry from the weather we get in the UK. Our main reason for our trip is to visit my sister who has been here for about 6 months on a working visa. She loves it so much she might not even come home!

My Sister lives in a close by apartment so naturally I had to find the cache closest to her and enjoy the beach at the same time. Found this cache by spotting it from the beach side but then had to wait for the car park people to finish issuing tickets to actually grab it and sign the log. Returned with a lot less hassle.

Found at 2:05 PM GAFF1 in the company of &others. We at first baulked at the thought of having to search for this cache in the filth that we found, but when we walked around the other side of said filth area, we could see the container and so we could grab the cache without having to go in amongst the mess.
Pity that this cache doesn't highlight Bondi as it should.
Thanks Bells Angels.

Found on Monday, 6th January 2014
(Log may be signed as ADI, short for AlphaDeltaIndigo)
GC Buddy for the cache: Divi23
Cache condition: Good
Log condition: Good

Divi23 is visiting me, in Sydney, from Dubai. I didn't know that she would become a geocacher. When I told her about geocaching, she was super excited.
Today we decided to do the coastal walk, but started from Coogee as spunkyredflame wanted to join us for a bit of the walk, but had turned back.
Exhausted after this long walk, I insisted that we go find this cache, before food! Following the compass we came across this little bridge that I had not noticed before! At Gz, Divi23 walked to the other side and pointed to me where to touch! Quick and easy find this was! It's all in the name Wink

After Mermaids, this was an easy find with help from Misspalot. We went for some fruits and coconut water afterwards.

There is a Harris Farm on Hall Street, if you are keen to get some cheap but awesome fruits/snacks:))

After getting some delicious fruits, we sat down enjoyed the ocean breeze, Misspalot tried too hard to open a coconut, she was having a fit LOL

We came to Bondi to nurse our hangovers and get sunburnt. I had factor 30 on which does the job in the UK, but not out here! Ouch! On a break from the beach we wandered up to fetch this one. Deciding access from the beach side was not troll-like, we skirted the motorbikes to try the other way. GROSS! Discarded nappies, reall poo, broken bottles and all sorts of rubbish makes the Bondi Beach Troll a very disgusting creature! I did wonder what cacher would make others go close to that crap, when I realised of course no-one would. So I pulled back, considered the realistic options, then pretty much put my hand right on it. The cache I mean! Such a shame the listed TB went missing after only two logs back in 2011, hope the owner sent out a more successful replacement. TFTC

Didn't even try after the stench of urine and huge garbage piles overwhelmed me. yuck. Maybe Bondi council could invest in some clean up crew? One of the hints mentions sticking your hand in somewhere? no thanks. Walked along the beach and admired the surf instead. Sad
