Out for an early walk after arriving yesterday from Victoria. It's going to be a lovely day .
Busy road. Nearly didnt attempt this one due to previous logs but thought I need a walk anyway. Log full but still able to sign.

Found whilst out with the GeoDad. TFTC - log soaked/found on floor needs maintenance
Out with the geo daughter TH/CS for a caching day. We did find it TH/CS took picture proof, it was under a sign on the floor. The actual GZ for this cache is posted as a pic on my log, it is way off
Geo mum saves the day no standing now parking couldn't log no pen but got picture proof
First cache on second visit to the southern hemisphere, hot and sunny walk for me today.TFTC
Searching a median strip in peak hour traffic and an approaching storm with 2 small children - odds were against us.
Nice quick find on my way home from work this afternoon. I parked on Yaltara Road and walked across after finding a break in the traffic. There isn't much room left on the log so I signed p367. Thank you for the cache Zodiakhorizon.
CurleySpoon find! Coordinates a bit off, dont stand in the middle of the road, it's dangerous! TFTF, try S 31 54.564 E 115 45.495 +/- 3 meters.
tftc zodiakhorizon. Found this last month and forgot to log this one for some reason.
Yes it is still there but considering the placement I don't think it will be there too long!

As per other logs, owner may want to shift this one before someone else does TFTC
Spur of the moment stop off on the drive home from City Beach. Only when I got near to GZ did I realise there isn't any parking so after a short detour I found myself almost back where I started but this time the car was safely parked While stood waiting to cross the busy road I was looking over thinking hmmm there's nothing there...? I crossed over anyway and then spotted something horizontal which clearly ought to have been vertical. Wondering, I checked previous logs to see if there was any mention of this anomaly - and I was quickly reassured. Seconds later the cache was in hand. Only a matter of time before this one disappears so get in quick! TFTC
This one was pretty tricky, we were about to leave but doubled back and found it!
As mentioned before, this one isn't long for this world where it currently is. Took the opportunity to log it before it goes to nano-heaven. TFTC!
Found cache and signed log. You will need to to move it some time'
thanks for the cache
thanks for the cache
Tough. Needed a few prompts from others but as this is our day at this we decided on a few liberties.
Found it, miraculously it still attached to feature, even though that feature has been uprooted and lying in side of road. I could even unscrew it. Needs maintenance quickly, thanks
Wasn't able to open the little blighter - so photo attached for proof. Thank you
Find 300 for me. Whilst approaching this little fellow ran out and tried to cross the busy road. Brave guy as I had to guide him back to safety. TFTC
Out for the morning picking up the new ones and some missed ones in the area..found this one while driving to my girlfriends place.....TFTC
My first bit of serious exercise since my knee operation and on my own so borrowed my lovely neighbours bike to see how I might go cycling. Well the start was not too bad and I think I picked a fairly good time, most of the workers were at work so not too many muggles in cars or other modes of transport were around.
Had a rough idea of where this was so stopped at very close to GZ, did actually go a little past, but walked back and found the devil quickly. A very big thanks to Hiddo for the new log and not other names there, so scribbled yours in first, without a date then my scrawl, hard to read though, but done. Thanks for this series ZH

Parked at dog beach and having read previous logs I took a new log sheet. Wandered up the cycle way (with my crazy dog pulling like a train) and the pen I had with me was not working.!! Changed log anyway
Thanks for cache
Thanks for cache
Monday morning caching run with the geobike.
I do not understand how I missed this more than a year ago... Quick find here, log is full. TFTH

My first WCW find! I thought 6 am would be a good time with less traffic on WCH, but it was the lycra clad muggles I had to watch out for.
Log is full and a little bit damp. Managed to put my mark in a spot where the ink had faded.
TFTC Zodiakhorizon, am looking forward to more now!

Great location. Found with J+J.au during our W.A. holiday. Greetings from N.S.W. SL..TFTC
Tftc out on a afternoon walk and on way home wanted to clear this one off the list. Nice and easy. Had no pen on me to stamp my mark
Common sense more than accurate coordinates will find this one.
Use the force......

The pen I had stopped working so didn't log easy find coordinates put you in the wrong spot though only a little off
Coords a little out. Found quickly after reading some logs. It was covered over by small grainy stuff due to the toreential downpours that had occurred the previous day and night. TFTC.
Found @ 17:07!
Listed Coordinates suggested that this cache was near the crossing between the two carriageways, but Common Sense prevailed and cache was quickly spotted beside the cycle path - much to the amazement of my non-caching friend!
My coordinates: S 31°54.570 · E 115°45.492

It was mistralunas birthday today so she decided the best way to celebrate was to go out for a day of caching. It turned out to be a good day, i ended up with 29 finds and only 3 DNFS so i was quite happy with that. A quick find once we got across the busy road. Log book is full and needs replacing TFTC Zodiakhorizon
Birthdays come but once a year and what better way to spend it than out caching with a like-minded companion. Was getting late in the day, and OOH YEH wanted to beat the peak hour traffic on the way home, so we decided to make these the last few for the day. Quick find here. Thanks Zodiakhorizon
I'd been contacted by Olabirk from Norway for some advice and offered to drive him around and we made it a great caching weekend. He asked to see some nice caches so I chose places I liked, caches I'd done that I liked and caches I hadn't done yet but that I knew would be worthwhile doing.
Looked on both sides and in the middle of the road before I saw it semi-buried by some dirt. TFTC!

Found with olabirk and duncdonut73. We searched both sides of the highway, before Dunc located the cache. TFTC
This is a common log of all my findings of geocaches in the Perth area during my stay, weekend 6th and 7th. April. 2013. At the bottom of the log, you will find more information specific to this particular cache.
Got to know a week ago that I was going to perform a mission on a ship bound for Broome, Australia. (This is my first trip to Australia.) Admission ship outside Bali on Tuesday afternoon, and arrived in Broome on Friday morning. In order to return to Europe again, I had to fly to Perth on Friday night. Since it was the weekend, I took as well a couple of days off here in Perth to find some caches. Had send a message to "duncdonut73" a few days before arrival to get some guidance since I unfamiliar with all the "dangerous creatures" here in Australia. Not enough that he responded to my inquiry, he posed as well by showing me a lot of nice caches. Thank you duncdonut73 who had time for this.
Quick and easy cache. Nice location.
Thanks for this nice cache.

Slowly working our way northwards with this series and managed to knock another two of the list. Found co-ords out about 7 mts after dashing to the centre island to check where our gps was leading us then returning to the car parked on the side of the northward bound traffic. Quick find after surveying the immediate area.
Not so straighforward after all. Reading some of the previous logs helped. Locked my eyes upon it as slippery cyclists were zooming past me at breakneck speed. TFTC
Found it quite easily thanks to clues in the logs, particularly - ignored GPS and looked in the obvious spot.
Looking for a few local caches after a second year old's birthday party...
Took 2 tries with this one as GZ was in the middle of the road.
Found after using my eyes instead of the GPS.

I parked nearby, but was on my way south to No. 15, and looked for this one on the way. I checked out the sign, but couldn't find the cache, so I then started checking all the fence posts for holes or other ways to hide the cache, but couldn't find it either, so I gave up and continued down to No.15.
After finding that, on my way back I had another go at this one, keeping in mind the information from the previous log, and after a bit of searching I found the cache completely buried by the sand. So, I've left it out a bit now.
Thanks for the hunt ZH!

Finally found it!
Looked for 10 mins then finally discovered the nano with lots of snails all over it.
A great reason to stop.

TFTC, GPS suggested other side of the road, but found from experience of the others in the series.
'twas easy find once I ignored GPS and looked in the obvious spot. Not much fun crossing this road or looking during peak hour though. Thanks for the hunt.
