Went by today and found the logbook and a swag item on the ground, the cache container was filled with what I think is yellow water at best.
It is time to retire and remove this cache as the park is used constantly, and there are so many muggles around it is hard to keep the cache hidden.
Thanks to all the cachers who found it, especially those who made it their first find.

Got 2019 off to a good start finding my first cache for the year! A bit exposed but made sure I left it well concealed. TFTC
Grabbed this one then went and sat down to sign while a muggle walked past and a quick return once gone. Tftc.. it was a little exposed so applied some more camo
Definitely a quick game say find but filled some time before the orthodontist around the corner. TFTC
Quick little stop while on the way to an appointment, very obvious on approach now hidden away a little. TFTC
Awesome my first geocache find, a couple of muggles around but waited for them to pass by the oval first before finding this didn’t take anything but signed the logbook
I'd headed to Melbourne on the 5th May for a weekend stay to see Priscilla: Queen of the Desert
Instead there was a mammoth change in my plans when the Corolla suddenly needed new brakes [xx(] which led to needing new tyres [^] which led to needing a new wheel bearing [xx(]
So a weekend turned into almost 3 full weeks and my HUGE thanks to the very patient and tolerant kmace who not only provided accommodation for myself but also for Rex [:X][:X]
Having your home invaded by a rabid geocacher who gets irritated when they have no car to go and find caches because it is in the workshop [xx(] and a pup who shreds his toys all over the house is not an easy ask for a day or two: let alone 20 odd days! [:X]
Rex also loved the beaches and the seagulls so there were many walks on the beach, some in pouring rain and gusting winds but that's what being a dog owner is about [^]
During this time some fantastic caches were found and some adventures occurred [^]
My thanks to all of the COs for the fun and the finds [^]
21st day of the trip and 1 DNF with 7 finds made for a great day and night of caching even if day and then night did turn into the next day with the last cache found at about 1am by which time I'd exhausted kmace [|)][xx(] but we did find both the bonus cache and Antares by night too [^]
Arrived here just as some muggles walked past but that's what's good about caching with a dog
Time for a play Rex and then I can play too

The plan today was to find some solved puzzles in Frankston and whatever other caches I found myself near. This was the first stop. It was a nice day and only 2 muggles with puggles shared the park with me.
I waited for them to wander off before making a quick find.
Thanks for the cache.

Since moving from New Zealand I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches. I usually cache on my own but sometimes I will collect my nephew stinky bob and my brother stinky tom who both enjoy this hobby.
A big thanks goes out to all the cachers and cache owners without whom this lifestyle would not be possible.
The caches I’ve found in Australia so far have for the most part all been in great condition. Keep up the good work.

Checked in on the cache today on our way past. Looking good, except was a bit exposed, so we made it less obvious. Thanks, Happy caching!
Thanks so much for the family that set it up. Easy to follow instructions. Our first one.
Ah, after a night of bowling with friends I knew I had to go out and get my daily cache before my time runs out, so what is one to do....... I know find a relatively close, easy, trad....... Hmmmmmm this will do the job. With darkness on my side I quickly grabbed a light source and made way to the cache. Soon enough the cache was in hand after a little bit of searching. Anyways thanks for the cache and the great little adventure.

Nice quick find 2night. No pen, or (pieces of , but eventually managed to sign log. TFTC Fam_0_5 Hope you have heaps more GCaching fun
Bit tricky to find the GPS wasnt a big help but we found it on the hollow of the tree
Our first attempt - so exciting, used the compass for guidance. Geocache was in good order in a great location, we swapped our treasure - thank you
Caching around in Frankston area while my car is in workshop

Discovered it was missing. We replaced the whole cache AGAIN, and it is ready to go.
What a great hiding spot!!! Well done team! Plenty of ransoms around but we went definitely unnoticed!!!!
Tftc!!!

Cricket was all go here this morning but we had our Geodog with us so not a soul paid us one bit of attention. Well, no one except for 2 red heelers who were walking with their muggle err, Mum/owner but they were more interested in Jett. A quick find, cache in good condition. Thanks
Took a little longer than it should've as our GPS kept leading us to the wrong tree. But once we used our eyes, it was quickly found. A very small hollow indeed! TFTC, Brainiac03
Found this one with KEY1985. This catch was really fun to find. The catch was camouflaged really well. There was loads of muggles around so retrieving the catch once located was a little tricky.
Found with @CPM1980. An easy find but lots of muggles around so needed to be secretive! We re-hid it well.
Thanks
Thanks
Went to check on hollow frank, and found that it was really well hidden, clean and in better order than we've seen it before. Even had a double take, was this the right spot? Also this cache was featured [here](http://mamalovestoshare.com.au/geocaching-treasure-hunt-fun/), *warning: contains spoilers*, which we were quite chuffed about! Thanks to all previous finders, and we hope future finders enjoy it.
Been meaning to grab this one for some time, drove by once before and many muggles around. Got to GZ and then a dog and muggle appeared and dog decided to mark their territory on every tree, not once but twice so took a seat until they cleared off. Spotted the likely hide. Returned as found.
Thanks for the find fam_o_five
