Quick find out two girls introducing two friends to geocaching so they have found it before but love going back and seeing if they are still there
Saw these creatures on the way into town and just knew there would be a cache better. Good quality hide.
I came, I saw, I signed the log. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.
Cache is in good condition.

What amazing sculptures! None of us are particularly artistic but we do appreciate the effort and skill that is invested in these works. GeoJ and GeoR managed to make the discovery here before the youngsters joined us. TFTC!
Boy, did we look like we really appreciated this artwork!
And we did, but the nicely hidden cache was even better.

Checked it yesterday and it is still there. The Dragon has had a bit of maintenance recently and a new paint job which has covered the ‘hint’. I will fix it soon.
Found with True Seek Trio and Rainbow Scjaz. Nice hide and nice and simple once we stopped looking so hard. TFTC
Out and about caching around Denmark today. Visiting from Brisbane and was impressed by the caches and location. Cache found and log signed. Cache returned to where found. TFTC
On Day 3 of our WA road trip. While staying in Albany for 3 nights we did some country side caching, part of the A geoart as well as exploring Denmark. An amazing variety of caches were found, a few that were unfortunately a DNF and some interesting metal sculptures spotted. Thanks so much to all the CO's for placing and maintaining your hides to enhance our enjoyment of this pastime.
Had a great day around Denmark visiting and caching. For lunch break we treated ourselves to delicious pies at the Denmark bakery, so we had enough energy to continue our search in the afternoon. We really loved this beautiful area and the excellent caches we found here.
About to leave Denmark, sad that we can't stay longer. At least, we stopped here for a chat with the dragon and his insect friends. Another neat hide.

What a great place for a cache! A very fun stop. Thanks for bringing me here and for the great cache.
When he was younger Brad was a fan of Anne McCaffrey's Dragon Riders of Pern series. And more recently he enjoyed Matthew Reilly's sojourn into the Dragon genre. So he was quietly confident that he knew all the salient points necessary to quickly track down this cache.
And to Janet's great surprise that proved to be the case!
Another well crafted hide. We are starting to get a little spoiled. Not looking forward at all to the next mint tin we encounter!

Hi there roymerc.
We found your cache **"Here Be Dragon!"** at 11:22:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 23852).
In 2014 we visited Denmark and found some of Australia's best caches, and we vowed to return and find some more. We have finally managed to return & today we found 6 caches & DNF'd 0.
Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache exactly where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thank you roymerc for adding to our adventure.
Regards
Ian & Penny

It creates a fun walk with all of us and it was quite exciting just the fact that the map doesn’t direct properly so we didn’t understand or get there
After a bit of lunch and some refreshments at a nearby establishment I stopped here to make a quick grab while my wife took some photos. It turned out to be easier than I expected thanks to the clue on the outside of the cache.

First geocache! Surrounding area is very beautiful and the scenic drive along the road is awesome!
Today we found Here Be Dragon! on our travels. A quick find although I had to make sure I avoiders Charlotte’s web while extracting. She was so very busy spinning it I didn’t want to disturb.
Thanks roymerc for being part of our geocaching fun.

Newbie with us found in 2 seconds....too good! but love the sculpture. Tftc
Third find in the Denmark area today. Visiting for a training course and couldn't go home without grabbing a few.
I'd better stop now before SandyT63 gets upset I'm doing them all without her

Quick drive by while out doing some night caching to avoid muggles. Nice little bit of artwork here that I usually drive past. Nice to stop and check it out.
Headed down south for 3 days with Barnzy12. The weather wasnt the best, im not sure how may times we got drenched with rain. Found most of the caches that we went down there to find were found without issues with a few that took a bit of searching.
We met up with richlink and did the grove park series and also found the samuel de kock cache with them. Im very glad there was 5 of us doing the grove park caches as we struggled to find some of those caches. It was really hard in some spots to fight your way through the vegetation with the rain coming down and then we had to search for a preform tube somewhere on the ground. Number 3 must have taken at least 45 minutes to find. We were very happy once we had completed that series of caches.
We definately enjoyed finding all the roymerc caches and its lucky i have lots of fav points to hand out as they were very worthy of them. All in all a good weekend of caching and a big thanks to all the CO,S for placing these caches for us and everyone else to find.

After a very long lunch at the nearby brewery (not a boozy one - it was just a very busy spot today!) we called in here and made an instant find thanks to the sympathetic placement. Good to see knackered old bike wheels put to good use 
TFTC roymerc!
TFTC roymerc!Nice quick find on our drive home, stopping to find as many caches as we can - making what should be a 4hr drive into a 7 or 8 hour one!
