A nice easy find in a great little park while doing the TinTin series. Signed log and collected the clue. Thanks for placing this cache and series for us all to find and enjoy.
Out and about with Magpie51! Collected our clue! The Koi fish in the pond are worth a look, they are massive!! What a lovely park!!
Tftc. Nice quick find here. It was a wee bit exposed so we covered it up a bit better.
TFTC! Found whilst out with Cravo10 and ItsKate cleaning up the local area on an evening cache hunt. Thanks
Great start to what turned out to be a disastrous morn. Made a v quick find here, but the following 4 hunts were accompanied by swooping maggies. After the last one, & believing discretion to be the better part of valour, I made a fast exit from the area, I will return in a cuppla weeks when mum & dad maggie dont feel threatened by my presence in their park!!! TFTC.
Quick find here with the clue. Ive never been to this area before, what a lovely park. Was planning on taking the Snowy's Mission TB out of the country in a couple of weeks but knowing how much Captain Haddock loves the little white fluff ball (haha NOT!) I thought theyd might like to spend some time together. TFTC
Decided to take another run back up this way today after i didnt find many the other day. The day started out great until i got to the 4th cache and it was missing. I thought i will just replace so i can sign the log so i opened up the boot got the container then shut the boot and instantly i realized the car keys were in the boot.....The whole car was locked with my mobile sitting on the front seat so i had to knock at someones front door to use there phone to ring the rac then wait half an hour for them to come. Once i had the keys to drive again after wasting a bit of time i still managed 19 finds and 2 DNFS so the day still turned out ok....
A nice quick find here TFTC spatialRiq

Wonderful park, kids got to play, and we got stalked by some ducks. While walking to GZ almost walked into a massive gigantic spider, but did some Ninja moves and managed to avoid it at the last second. TFTC
This was number 2 for the day. Set out for a bike ride with the intention of finding 6. Found 4 before the GPS died. Decided to go passed number 5 anyway and luckily found it. 4 were the tin tin series and I'm so keen to finish it off. Home to let the kids have a nap and then might just have to set out to finish it off!
After solving a few puzzles, we did a day run to north east of Perth,
to find them and a few others in the area.
Had an enjoyable day, visiting some amazing parks and bush land.
The cache was well hidden, and in good condition.
Thanks for the cache, SpatialRiq.

[:(!] After church and a bite to eat we had nothing better to do but to do a caching run to fill in the afternoon, this was one of them, parked the geoGrand Vitara as close as possible to GZ and walked in from there, on arrival at GZ the cache was in hand in a matter of minutes.

Quickly found another stripey tintin here near a quiet park with plenty of birdlife.
TFTC.

GSAGC #445. My last drop off this morning was at Perth Airport so I decided to tackle some Tin Tin caches on the way home. Good hint... easy find TFTH.
Despite the attentions of some gardeners, we were able to make a quick find and get away! TFTC.
Had been waiting for all the TINTIN caches to make an appearance before I headed East
to go in search of our hero.
Our whole family are TINTIN lovers, in fact we could be Tintinologists, YES that is a "real" word in use
to describe those who have a healthy interest in all things TINTIN.
We visited Brussels a few years back, the home of TINTIN, to see some of the TINTIN monuments & exhibitions etc.
Anyway, back to the caches. Had seven on the list to go in search of.
Fortunately all were easily tracked down in very handy locations.
So quickly collected the required info before moving onto the next.
Cheers for series.... looking forward to the FINALE now !!!

So we decided it was our last chance to take our Caravan for an overnighter for another month. So when Mrs Felix got home from nightshift this morning we packed our gear and headed off for the big trip to ............ Caversham. Yep not far at all, but a good chance to push some extra buttons on the caravan
Once all set up onsite it was off to grab just a few caches. Hmmm this is number 8 already This park was awfully familiar, think we placed a GCA moveable to start it's life here back in December
Quick find today by Mrs Felix then it was off to the next.
Really excited and looking forward to meeting other cachers at WA goes BIG in 2013 - GC45X55

Quick for a drive the car - only two caches for the day. Signed the log. Thanks SpatialRiq.
I have been to this park previously to find a cache, but on that occasion I took the cache with me (GCA moveable). It was great to see a black swan hanging out in the lake here.
The GPS was having a bit of trouble making up its mind, but I soon found the right spot. Thanks for the cache SpatialRiq!

Thought Sgtant and i got to this first at about 10am couldnt log the cache however as we then went on our easter camping trip, nevermind. TFTC
I am pretty sure Chooke and I had found this just after 10am. When we saw this cache came through we went to jump in the car, the car wouldn't start, when we got it started we were there in about 10min to GZ and had it in hand. TFTC.
Was heading up to Whiteman Park for annual Good Friday celebrations. Stopped on the way to log this find. Tough area to negotiate; even on a bike it seemed to be a long way in and then the same bactracking to get back out of the area. Thanks for the cache.
