I finally finished off this series. One of a few I'm determined to get completed this summer. Thanks FelixII.
This area looks like it has had a prescribed burn. I found this cache but it is no longer together. I send you a photo FelixII.
Note to self, when navigating to cache by car, compare Geomaps to Google maps as not all roads are roads.
I actually finished this series more than two years ago but for some reason had not completed the final. Having finished work early today I thought I'd check for a local cache and spotted this one "just up the road" but coming from the East I found that you can not access Mary St from Badgerup Road so it took me longer to get to the parking spot than it took me to walk to GZ. BONUS though, the cache held a GC which had been dropped off 9 months ago - the last time it was found. So I have rescued the GC and collected the lovely Foodie Finale card thank you Felix.

Thankyou for a great series. Found it safe and sound and in good order.
What a shame such a lovely little piece of bush has been used as dump ground by some.
The kangroo paws re just about to burst into flower.

Neglected to check for suggested parking and accessed the cache from a terrible location off Banjerup Rd. Didn't matter too much since my MTB is pretty robust. Great to find the cache safely tucked away. Thanks for the cache FelixII.
Another great series and after doing the last three caches today we headed off to collect the final while on our way south.
After picking up most of the caches in the series recently I worked out the final coords except for one digit, missing only #2. Today I had the chance to come out and find the finale, and it didn't take too long, I found it in the first place I looked, although there is no shortage of good hiding places around here.
I left the Traditional Cache Geocoin and the Travel Bug Dog Tag, and took the BIG-nick birthday monkey travel slug, and a finders card, of course!
Thanks for the series and the cache FelixII!

Calculated co-ords for finale. Drove to parking, walked in. DNF. Back to car, cold drink, back in woo-hoo, found it!! Thanks for this great series, very enjoyable.
The co-ords we had worked out led us straight to it. Took one of the beautiful finder cards. Retrieved Fishing Jimmy TB and left BIG Nick- Birthday monkey TB. Thanks for a great series FelixII
Yay, a great series that has given us some ideas. Oh no, groan the crowd...so glad the TB I was aiming for was still there. A radish to keep with the food theme as it turns out. We could have had a french meal with all the critters we saw doing this series...slugs, snails, a rabbit, empty bird egg and to top it all off...frog legs!! Still attached to the frogs and staying that way. Took TB Dropped TB (also to do with food.) TFTC
This was a rewarding cache after finding all the others in the series. TFTC took TB - Iris's True Love Simba TB
Finally, the finale. Had a good poke for snakes before reaching in for the cache. TFTH
Our GPS decided steer us in the wrong direction. Luckily we have an iPhone app which worked quite well. An enjoyable series. SL Took GC & TB Left Iris true love Simba TB & Thijs Radijs TB TFTC
Wow! We haven't see one this big for a long time Mr Felix !! We enjoyed the series and the location for the final cache. Left a couple of trackables.
Found all the caches in this series a month or so ago, but I somehow mislaid four of the six finders cards...holding the vital info required for this Cache.
Fortunately Felix was generous enough to forward me electronic versions so I did not have to retrace my steps and revisit the Caches.
Anyway, with the required info to hand, I soon calculated the coords and headed out (in the rain), to make the find.
Cheers for the series.

Quick find this morning. Finally had a chance to get this after finding the other foodies over the past few weeks. TFTCs.
Finally found 6 caches and work out for the final coordinate and enjoyed walk along to GZ. Perfect spot. Like the container - excellent one. Signed the log. Thanks FelixII.
What a fantastic series! Thank you FelixII for all of your effort in creating this awesome series. We had so much fun working our way thru it, especially numbers 3 & 4. Found with "Ronin Around" & "Theoutbackwizard101" We weren't expecting to have such good weather today so that was a bonus. SL TNLN TFTH
A fitting finale for a memorable days caching through northern suburbs.....thirty first find for the day and one of the most satisfying....youre never quite sure if the co ords you come up with are the correct ones...wouldve been a very sad walk back to the car if we came up empty-handed...but there it was, spot on coords...then made our way back to car in fading light, weary but happy at a successful and enjoyable days caching....much appreciated D&D........... :0)
should probably put the terrain up for me and mdv as we jumped 4 fences to get to it and ran to a quick find in fading light, must be an easier way.
Really enjoyed the series
took finders card

We spent some time searching for this without realising that we were searching in the wrong spot. Luckily Xinders checked the co-ordinates again and worked out that she had put the wrong co-ordinates into the gps. You should have seen the relief .... for minutes before finding the cache, we had almost given up. Thank you FelixII for this wonderful series of caches. We enjoyed it thoroughly. We also loved exploring the area. Cheers!
We spent a long time looking for this cache, because we had put the wrong coordinates into the GPS. We decided to leave and were feeling very sad but luckily Xinders decided to check the gps and found the mistake. After that we found the cache very quickly because the coordinates took us straight to it. We had fun doing this series and the finale was in the most perfect place. Thank you FelixII.
JOINT FTF WITH SQWASH!!! What a great end to a fantastic day of caching. Had so much fun today finding a number of caches with Sqwash and managed to grab two FTFs. Thanks for the Hide!
Oh dear! A little bit of drama before finding this cache. First of all, I had put one of the cards in a different place to the others .... so we thought we might have to go back ..... but phew! ... found it after a thorough search of the bag.
Then I entered the wrong co-ordinates into the GPS (something I seem to have done a lot of today!!) so we couldn't find the cache at all. We were about to leave when I decided to check the co-ordinates again ... and yes!!! we found the cache 20 metres away from where we were searching.
After that there was heaps of celebrating ... and we decided to call it a day. Thanks for providing us with heaps of entertainment FelixII. We enjoyed finding all of your foodie caches.

Even without finding the 3rd cache, we decided to give this one a go with the coords we had. Thankfully we managed to find it quite easily. Glad to be able to finish the series with a 2nd to Find Thanks for this series FelixII and for organising a great event.

I couldn't find one of the cards when I was working out the coordinate but as it was a least significant digit I decided to go for this cache and not bother going back to collect another one. (I later found it stuck to the back of the event card.)
Saw some other caches when I arrived but they were not ready to go to GZ so walked to GZ by myself. Soon found the cache.
Thanks FelixII for the series. I enjoyed them.

Found with Devar and TD3. Very nice series of caches and very sneaky hides. TY. <3
We were pleased to find this one as we haven't searched using coordinates very much, mainly just using the Android Geocaching App. Some stealthy cachers were parked there when we arrived, but we didn't see them at all, though they had gone by the time we made the find and departed. We have much to learn, grasshopper. Left Sparks matchbox toy and took a cookie cutter. TFTC series, really enjoyed it and your great hides.
tftc sl.lots of imagination went it to this series.
thanks again felixll.
found with much help from devar & nikitak!
had a great day cashing with you guys today,
we certainly wouldn't have got this far without you.

We could not find foodie 3. But used it as a reference. Took a little while to find. Thought we had it but it was a little decoy. But found it seconds later. Thanks to one of the geo kids from supersleuth.TFTS.
Oh wow that was a fun series! Found with the help of Team Disco 3! Couldn't have done it without you!
