Dnf. Had fun looking.2pm.28/1/14

Stopped off here on a quick cache run this morning but no sign of it

Pays to read the description properly.....might have saved a few mozzie bites! Nice tin and a lovely park.

Nice hide xx the park upgrades had us concerned to begin with

Geo son found great cache

I couldn't find this geocache, maybe I'll have better luck next time!

Nice little cache - well stylised

Sneaky little cache, but very pretty! Found in the heat of the afternoon sun. TFTC

I'm not sure if this one is still there because there's a temporary fence around the area close to it so I couldn't go any further I don't know how long temporary fences been there was an event on when I was looking so I might try another day

Gee i was looking for a 1/1 cache and found a 1-1/2 /1-1/2 thats probably why i didn't spot this straight away. Found in the end but it's not a 1/1 TFTC

Picked up my new specs from the nearby shops and thought I might try them out finding some treasure. Nice quick find , must have been the new specs

TFTC

Find during a trip for working. David from France

Jesikahk and I found this 1 after returning to it after not finding it last time. Glad we finally located this one. It was a tricky find but after a good search we finally had it in hand. TFTC

Somebody has been busy with a glue stick! Left pathtag. TFTC

Mum said it's a beautiful day today, so let's go for a bit of a drive & find some caches too... Mum found this one! TFTC Tanzanite

We awoke to a glorious day, so DangerMouse09 & I headed out to find a few caches! Parking across the road, we made the short walk to GZ... Initially I begun the search and was empty handed After sitting down & taking a minute it occured to me there was only one spot it could be Ta- Da, found it & so shiny & sparkly!!!

TFTC Tanzanite... After replacing container, we took a walk around the gardens here. The area is lovely & thanks for showing us [^]

After dropping someone at the airport I had a look for a few nearby caches. A pleasant area to walk around and watch the birds on the lake.

Thanks Tanzanite!.

Looked and looked but not found. It's our first time, so maybe we need more practice??

Didn't find, found empty zip lock bag and empty tic tac container in area.

A quick grab after a movie and our 24 day in a row caching for the challenge tftc

Love a bit of bling! TFTC

TFTC found on an early morning dog walk, forgot a pen so didn't sign. Nice little park and lagoon.

Zip lock bag replaced. Nearly fell in the water. Love the jewelled cache

Nice one! TFTC.

Very cute

Found by shear determination

TFTC

Zip lock bag is damaged, leaving the log very slightly damp.

We didn't have a spare on us.

Spent a while looking with no success. Read all the logs but still no luck.

I couldn't see it anywhere

found with Jensky7 (have my own account now)

Kids lived the sparkles

Kids loved the sparkles

Last one in the series for us!! Thank you!!

These Cache tins are certainly on the "outrageous" side of things aren't they. Easy enough find and very sparkly.

Found this whilst showing my new geocaching nieces what this is all about.
Love the container

I think this one was missing last time I was in the area. This time, presenting at council and had an hour break in between sessions, so came out to grab this one. Frustrating as I didn't know which side of the water to be on. GZ seems to be in the middle. Eventually got there and signed the log, replaced the cache unseen. Thanks. This is a great park.

A quick find on the way to a meeting.
TFTH and an easy find with not many muggles nearby and none caring.

Lovely walk from where I parked the car and a quick find.

Thanks Tanzanite! for the cache.

Took a little while in the dark
But spotted it 17/05/13 10:05 PM

GSAGC #172. Easy find once we were on the correct side of the water. TFTH.

tftf

Nice cache don't know how I missed it the first time.

Nice quick find after work. TFTC )

FoundHTFC

TFTC. I'm loving this series!

Nice.

Tfth. Pretty little bling cache. SL

Love the bling tftc

Damn, dropped my pen in the water AFTER I signed the log, phew! TFTC.

What a lovely setting in which to place this spectacular cache! This was a little easier than the Red Ruby Slipper cache that I found a little earlier this morning. TFTC

Took me a little while to spot this, and I don't know how I missed it on first look. TFTC!

Re the witch ... it's no secret that I'm a fan of the alternative point of view from Wicked (novel and musical) that she's just misunderstood.

THX

Had to look a bit harder for this one.

The rain is threatening but fortunately it is cool. The wicked witch is very nicely dressed up! TFTC

Out with mistraluna for a day of caching and after a bad start of DNFS i still managed to find 21 caches but i lost count of the DNFS. Another quick find and another nice container TFTC

After a dismal series of DNF's in this area, it was a delight to find this little series of caches. Well done Tanzanite!! Very pretty. Thanks

Wicked camo, thanks

Only just noticed this one had been reinstated...it was nice to finish the series ... TFTC:)

Lurked about in the gardens for a while but didn't spot anything.

Found this on the way to airport. TFTH

Found @ 1346!

Walked past this one, but remembered before I got too far and went back for it! Sussed the location quickly.

Cache may can actually be seen a few metres from GZ, but maybe only if you are looking for it...?

Nice work on the container!

TFTC!

Quick find on the way from the airport to my accomodation for the week. Took me a few moments to spot where this one was, but eventually spotted through the greenery. TFTC!!!

I was visiting an uncle in Belmont, and decided to introduce a young cousin of mine to geocaching. It took a few minutes to locate this cache as my iPhone led me a couple of metres away. But we managed to find it in a somewhat obvious spot. TFTC

It took a while but the cache has been replaced

Replacement cache is in the process of being built at the moment. Shouldn't be too long now...

Was in the area and did a little cacheing while here.
Did not see that this was disabled untill I got home.

Like others - I had a quick look but couldn't spot the cache.

Bummer we couldnt grab this one!! Found the other three this evening... Was fun running around Faulkner looking for Tanzanite's treasures. Hopefully it will be back in July so we can add it to our trophies... TFTH!!

From what I understand this cache may have been muggled...

I'll head down soon and see if I can locate it, if not it will probably be out of action until early July...

Found log book on grass with no cache tin in sight. Will need to be checked on.

Another pretty one from the set. TFTC

Finally after 30 minutes i had this one in hand... tftc

Found it on the grass past the rubbish bin - stuck it behind a post at the bottom of the railing. TFTC

Tftf

lotz of bling bling

Bling bling bling love it!!

Tftc

Quick find
TFTC

lovely afternoon, easy find with flikaswitch. loved the cache!! TFTC

Very fun afternoon caching with my friend cachemeifyoucan. TFTC

Yes, we too found that this cache took us the longest to find. Found eventually 4 mts from where our gps indicated and in the obvious spot. Loving the presentation of the containers.

Number 3 on our walk, and this one took a little longer to locate. I dived into the bushes, and checked the fence, but no cache. So I expanded my search, and also saw the logs about spotting it better from the other side.

The hubby offered to go over there, but when I started making my way around the lake side of the fence he said 'yeah, keep doing that'. A minute later while I was negotiating a pillar something dropped into the lake

In a panic I checked all of my pockets - iPhone, wallet, keys, GPS, pen, tweezers, all were present and accounted for. Phew... A few pillars later, and I had the cache in hand. Now, how to get back to the correct side of the fence?

Thanks for the cache Tanzanite!

This one was the trickiest, and there was so much excitement once it was found. Thank you.

Loved the bling, enough to make all those other spray painted black mint-tins jealous.
TFTC!

Take more time, but I got it.
Thanks.

In the city overnight, so I went caching before breakfast. Disturbed a couple of grebes in my search. TFTC

TFTC!

Subtle hunt near a Sunday markets. Easy find. TFTC.

Cheers.

a quick find in a beautiful park
geobrothers and geosister came with me and help search
Great series
TFTC

....and we continued our search and found the third in the series. This one was a little more difficult to find but after both little Noskys had a try, we came up trumps TFTF

Found quickly today while in the area, like all of this series, nice container

Tftc

Last find for the day, and the one that gave us the most trouble in finding it! Thankfully I'd read a few of the logs before we set out to OZ and remembered FelixII mentioning that they had crossed to the other side before spotting it. After wandering around GZ for a while I headed to the other side with two Baby Dragons and lo' and behold! I spotted the cache. Middle Baby Dragon made a mad dash back around to GZ to snatch up the prized cache before Daddy Dragon could work out where it was

TFTC, it was a brilliant way to spend an Easter Monday and it meant that Daddy Dragon's first taste of geocaching was a thoroughly successful one.

There was noone around on a Sunday afternoon so a quick find after checking a few spots. Thanks!

Nice quick find. Again thanks for this series.TFTC.

Huge Wicked fan so definitely a favourite point from me. Thanks for the cache Tanzanite.

wicked cache TFTH

Upon approach noticed someone near GZ scribbling secretivley. I suggested they may be in possession of what I am looking for, at which point they introduced themselves as Sno Seeker. Signed log and we each went off to find others in the series. TFTC!
