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.

I'd headed to Melbourne on the 5th May for a weekend stay to see Priscilla: Queen of the Desert CoolSmile
Instead there was a mammoth change in my plans when the Corolla suddenly needed new brakes Surprised [xx(] which led to needing new tyres Surprised[^] which led to needing a new wheel bearing Surprised[xx(]Sad
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]Smile[:X]
Having your home invaded by a rabid geocacher Razz who gets irritated when they have no car to go and find caches because it is in the workshop [xx(]Wink 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! SurprisedRed Face[: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 [^]Wink
During this time some fantastic caches were found SmileCool and some adventures occurred Big Grin[^]CoolWink
My thanks to all of the COs for the fun Big Grin and the finds Smile[^]

21st day of the trip and 1 DNFSad with 7 finds Smile made for a great day and night of caching Cool even if day and then night did turn into the next day Surprised with the last cache found at about 1am by which time I'd exhausted kmace Red Face[|)][xx(] but we did find both the bonus cache Surprised and Antares by night too Cool[^]Big Grin

Arrived here just as some muggles walked past but that's what's good about caching with a dog Wink
Time for a play Rex and then I can play too Big Grin

13-Oct-17
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.

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.

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
 
25-Feb-17
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
 
19-Feb-17
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.
 
18-Feb-17
Found with @CPM1980. An easy find but lots of muggles around so needed to be secretive! We re-hid it well.
Thanks

What a catch

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
