Found this one on Australia Day as needed a find for my public holiday challenge. Thanks for the cache and for adopting it Jasali. Easy to find, it had drifted away again, so I returned it to its intended location.

Checked on this one today - maybe 1 metre away from intended location but easy enough to find.
I returned it to intended GZ - my phone read 3-4 metres from GZ but should be a logical search anyway.
So all good to find, again

How funny - checked on this one today - I couldn't find my own nano I have left a replacement little green nano. Should be easy to find now. Please let me know if anyone finds the original which was well hidden
I forgot to add this "needs maintenance" report yesterday when logging our find.
The log is full, I had to squeeze our log into a faded gap (#13) as there was no space anywhere else

A quick grab on an equally quick walk from home (as in me having to walk as fast as 6ft 5 geohubby so nearly running!) We don't like some nanos, this one we liked TFTC Luna Maya
Thank you this, I do like this nano. Thank you Luna maya I have reached my 100 yay x
We don't mind nano's, they just require a systematic search of all possible nooks and crannies.
So that was our tactic here today and with good coords, we had a quick find of a well camo'd nano.

I didn't mind this nano - it was the man eating spider living at the site that I didn't like!!!
Today, we took a drive from Silversands to Secret Harbour, along the coast.
We found 14 caches along the way, and called it a day at lunch time.
Nano's are nasty.
Thanks for the hunt, Luna Maya.

Been meaning to do this one for a while now, was driving past and decided to stop and grab it, nice easy find but didn't have a pen so have taken a photo to show you we actually found it! TFTC
Had a free afternoon to do some geocaching, so decided to try and clear up a few DNFs in Secret Harbour/Golden Bay area, and grab some others as well. I managed to clear up 4 DNFs and this was one of them , but got three new DNFs as well .
Arrived here after my DNF in the CO's front yard, hoping to clear up my DNF from a couple of months ago. Batteries on my GPSr had failed on the way here, I had replaced them, but they failed again a couple of minutes after I got out of the geo-Camry ... hmmm, thinking this is the end of my geo-caching day unless I go fins a shop that sells batteries, but I knew that I had re-charged the spare batteries. Why did they go flat so quickly? Back to the geo-Camry tp play around with batteries and eventually realise that I've put back in the same pair of batteries that I took out [:o)]. Doh! Back on the job and then decide to read some logs from previous finders. One log about cut fingers grabbed my attention ... hmmm I hadn't really had any issues like that, soon discovered how one could get cut fingers here, and had the cache in hand soon thereafter. Signed the bloody log. TFTH Luna Maya

Parked where I thought was close by but I was quickly mistaken once I started walking to 'my' gz . Went to correct gz but still took a few moments to find the little sucker.
Probably wouldn't have been so bad if I wasn't putting myself under pressure and stressing out to find 8 more caches before hitting my next milestone.
Thankfully turned out good in the end
Find 3/20 and 4 dnf today

Am enjoying my tour around your Secret suburb, with caches being my guide, and bringing me to lots of lovely parkland and bushland settings. This place is a hive of activity at the moment with major roadworks right next to GZ, however no one seemed at all interested in my activities, and the cache was quickly found.
Thanks for the cache Luna Maya.
PS I don't like Nanos either!!

TFTC Luna Maya. Didn't have any trouble finding this one Luna Maya . Great spot. My goodness, this area is going ahead isn't it! Lots of activity around here. Clever little hide. Signed log.
Out with my family, we found a few caches... Mum found this one! TFTC Luna Maya
Running a few errands this morning, we had time for a few quick caches along the way... I don't mind this nano because I found it straight away TFTC Luna Maya.
The better half and I both cut our fingers trying to get this cache out of where it was hidden so put it back underneath where we found it.
Thanks Luna Maya for the cache.
Thanks Luna Maya for the cache.
Aother Friday afternoon and another chance to get out and clean up the immediate area.
Grrr. I actually LIKE nanos as I usually have no trouble finding them. Today I searched where I thought the cache would be without luck. I rang a friend who said a spot, but didn't really give me anything solid. Back to the task at hand and I soon noticed that there was a little niche just right for a nano. After checking a couple of those I felt a familiar shape and the prize was in hand.
Thanks for the cache Luna Maya
Cheers

So my visit to my own cache just reinforced that " I don't like Nano's "
I could not find my nano so returned home to pick up a new one. Went back to hide it and found my nano, it was not missing at all, silly me. My GPSr took a long time to settle, co-ords not too bad ? Have taken a new reading though, will see how it goes. All good to go ...

Difficulty level 1.5 ... hmmm, I made it harder than that for sure . I really wanted to find this one today too because it relates to my main mission of the day ... however, the main mission was achieved regardless. TFTH Luna Maya. I will be back.
I am quite a fan of a well placed nano. This one I found a bit tricky but was glad to earn another smiley on my map. Thanks for the cache.
KB again came up with the goods, in a spot I thought I had checked...cheers Luna Maya
After walking around in cirlces for a while i was about ready to give up when oohyeh found the cache!! Sneaky lil hide haha TFTC
This one had me walking around in circles. The GPS was going one way then another but after about 10 minutes i found the sneaky little nano. Good hide TFTC Luna Maya
Birthdays come but once a year and what better way to spend it than out caching with a like-minded companion. Picked up this little blighter on my way northwards before meeting up with Mrs OOH YEH. Quick find, though gps was telling me fibs I think. Thanks Luna Maya
I had just started dinner when this came through so it had to wait.
I may had well left it altogether because when I got to GZ my iPhone didn't want to play. How can I be standing in the road ????
Long story short,a DNF tonight. But I will return Luna Maya
I HATE NANOS.

Sitting at home, just finished dinner and the phone beeped. A check of the message showed that the new cache was close to home. Jumped in the car and was soon at the site. I checked where I thought the cache would be, no luck, a quick read of the description, I picked up my mistake, and soon had the hated topic of this cache was in my hand. *FTF* at 1825.
Thanks Luna Maya for the cache.
This is my find # 2264.
