This Geocache was placed there for a year to collect as many birthday wishes as possible. The time has came to archive it, thank you for everyone who found it and left some kind words
Out finding a few caches on the way home from work and going for a walk in this great location, not that many really deep valleys with a railway line crossing at such a high level.
Had a nice stroll around the greater park area and stopped to pick this up on the way back to the geovehicle. A quick find, signed the log and off home.
Thanks for placing this cache sredercsaba

Gentle walk across the grass to a large container that blends in well. Bikes raced past without warning but cache soon in hand.

Nice container! iPhone was taking us everywhere. But we found it! TNLNSL. TFTC.

It was quite hot today, but a storm over melbourne brought a cool breeze (for a while) , cache was spotted quickly, even though gps was pointing elsewhere (blame the clouds) . Cache was exposed , so I covered it up with some camo, also there seems to be 3 log books going in here ! Signed the one that made the most sense. thanks for the cache
Shorth after lunch walk equals 3 new finds.
Did not agree fully on the coords but cache was there
Thanks for the hide

An amazing expanse of parkland here, fun to explore. Did a cache on the other side of the creek last year whilst visiting model exhibition at nearby Scout hall. Back again so more of a walk (daughter not happy) for this one. Think we missed one on the way though. This one an easy find, and a great reason for placing a cache. Happy 30th Birthday in advance! Took Good Luck TB, no sign of geocoin one though. TFTC.
Nice quick easy find.
Great park and walking track nearby.
I dropped off a couple trackable items in the cache as well.

sharkiefan and I decided to head out and grab a few caches together. I concocted a plan and we headed to the area north of the Airport. We picked this cache up at 11:29am. It's not very often you find a glass container in the field. This is a good solid one, so I'm sure it won't cause anyone any problems. I was very impressed with the collection of party goodies in the cache. Happy 30th Birthday (for next year!) I left you a celebratory dog sicker, as that was all I had with me that could possible be construed as a present. I hope you make it back to the cache next year and enjoy reading the messages
Thanks for the cache sredercsaba.

Great idea for a cache and a nice little hide. A bit exposed to passing muggles who creep up on you without realising but thankfully I was able to locate the cache quickly. Thanks sredercsaba.
Happy birthday to your friend. Had a few muggles walk past but no trouble finding it in between passes.

I managed to park in a rather out of the way place but as I kept telling myself, the exercise was good for me! Once at GZ it was a quick find and my wishes were added.
Found by The Empire @ 1:20pm with The Lone Random
A quick find whilst a serious looking cricket game happened on the oval. Thanks for the cache srederscaba.

Found 1:31:00 PM, on a blusterous Friday caching expedition.
TNLN, thanks sredercsaba.

Nice quick find on my walk along the trail. Hope you have a wonderful 30th birthday What a lovely idea for a cache.
Found it, co-ords are a tad off but hint makes up for it! Was a little hard for me but I was searching in failing light with a torch, TFTC!
I like this reserve and it was proving a popular spot for joggers and dog walkers late this afternoon.
There really was only one place for this cache to be and there it was.

Thanks

Mr Crackers was arriving back from his Alice Springs trio so Mrs Crackers decided to go the airport a little earlier than needed to try and pick up a few caches along the way in an area that we don't often cache in.
I parked the car and went for a nice stroll through the park to gz. There was a dog walking muggle nearby so I waited for them to leave before retrieving the cache and adding our name to the log.
Thanks for your first cache

A bleak day outside - but the party has started inside the cache!
No one about on such a miserable old day as I ducked out here in the drizzle. Nice theme for a cache.
Signed the card, signed the log and headed off into the evening mists...
Thanks and cheers!

Grand children are brought here often, today I was with them...had time to find this nicely tucked away. Thanks
A warm and windy night tonight as we did a run around the hills and suburbs cleaning up a few new caches. Thanks sredercsaba for the cache.
Rebel Acts and I had a short run through Melbourne on a wet night. This was one of the caches found. Been here a few times before, nice easy find. Thanks.
A huge happy birthday to you! Found this cache while it was raining, so not many dog walkers around. Getting close to 100 finds!
The published co-ords are a little off, however the clue is of more use and made it easier to find.
I ride past this path a fair bit, but decided to drive n cache a few today. TFTC

Great walking track!! Found while my eldest son practised his Parkour skills at the reserve!
Didn't see this listing still yesterday afternoon and knew by then it would already have a first to find. I WALK SLING THIS TRACK QUITE REGULARLY AND HAVE DINE ALL THE OTHERS NEARBY. To my surprise it wasn't Alsume who had found it. Understood that the coordinates could be a bit out but was sure I had the right location tramped around it and another tree w ith three trunks but came back to GZ and sure enough after putting on my caching eyes this one was soon in hand. A nice hide. TFTC

Looking at the morning's newly published caches while eating breakfast, I discovered that this hide was close to this morning's visit to the Blood Bank, and that I could possibly fit in an attempt if I took the more scenic route to Airport West. Not even pausing to grab the GPSr, I jumped in the car and headed up the twists and turns of Mascoma St instead of my usual route via the freeways. Either way, I'd have to be quick, to beat the other local cachers to the punch, and to make my appointment.
Arriving at the familiar carpark, I glanced around at the other cars for signs of any vehicles I recognized, then took the short stroll around the path to GZ. Nothing at the posted coordinates looked likely, so I started searching in the few spots nearby that could harbour a small hide. Sure enough, there it was, about 12 metres from where the needle pointed.
Now for the big question... what would I find within?
...
Phew! A blank log, making this my 28th **FTF** and the minor miracle of a fourth consecutive month.
Happy birthday to Csilla, for this year and next. And thanks for the morning's excitement, sredercsaba. Now I just hope my blood pressure's back to normal before they measure it...

This one was close enough to home that we decided to walk to it. When we got there GZ placed us 10m from anywhere that a cache could be hidden, so we resorted to the hint. We then spotted the likely hide and found the cache shortly after at 11:45am - 12m from where the coordinates were sending us. We signed the log and left a message for Csilla. The coordinates where we found the cache have been included in the log.
