This is a cool one! Upon discovering the cache, we came across a really big creepy crawly, which only scared us more upon opening the cache!!! Signed and replaced. TFTC!
I've decided it will return. Repairs have now been completed and it's on my maintenance radar to get it back up and running as soon as I can get to GZ.
A most relaxed day for geocaching. Warm yet not chilly. Another suburb along the railway line to hunt geocaches. Lots of walking as my teens took my geomobile away! Had trouble at first as the cache was eventually found where it might not be (did someone break a fastener?). Photo shared with CO. Novel way to write your nametags upon. TFTC Calypso62 with a FP for making it so fun
Loved it! I loved the camo, and the log - I don't think my usual biro would done the job, but I luckily had a sharpie with me today.
We found this a few days ago but forgot to log it. Very creative cache and a cool log. TFTC
omg ive seen pictures of logs like this before but this is the first time ive ever gotten to sign one!! very cool cache, TFTC!!
Great fun cache! Can confirm the cockroach still lives there! Also neighbours had loud dogs and came to tell us there have been some break ins lately so people are wary of loiterers.
Great hide! Got to the area and spent a while but eventually found it. Design is cool but a coachroach gave me a big scare haha. I think it lives in there now TFTC!
Great find! I can see a lot of effort went into making this, so thank you for making and maintaining this cool cache! Funnily enough a real cockroach was on the cache as well
Had a muggle and dog in front of me and the dog Decided to smell everything in site. So keeping looking at my phone and waited. Once gone I approached GZ I spotted the cache straight away. Very clever
Today I have a simple mission: get from Newcastle to Singleton. And I have all day to do the <2 hour drive. So naturally, I opt to go via Sydney, make it an all-day road trip, and collect some choice geocaches along the way. What a sensible, rational, and obvious plan!Getting real close to the big smoke now, and having enjoyed the infrastructure of the new Pacific Highway on the approach to the Hawkesbury, I navigate off the main drag and into the suburbs for this geocache. Funny that of all the time I've spent in Sydney proper, I find myself visiting Ku-Ring-Gai from Newcastle.Small streets and lots of cars make for some interesting navigation, but close enough to the geocache, I find parking space. Two feet and a heartbeat from here. Across a couple of small creeks and around the outside of the very acive cricket pitch I stroll, pondering what awaits me that has been so highly rewarded with favourite points.As I came into the clearing, I felt a bit seen as there was a few houses and windows overlooking. Nevertheless, I decided to make it a quick job. The app pointed right at the geocache and yeah it's well camouflaged but I did spot it quickly. I popped it open and ah yes, that is pretty neat. It's been a long time since I've signed a log log. And my cheap pen struggled today. But claimed as a find at 13:35. Next step, back to the car and then find some lunch. Thanks for this geocache, Calypso62

The cache has been placed in a spot with more camouflage and is ready to be brought back into play.
A new log has been prepared. Just waiting for an opportunity to return the cache to GZ.
Tit was a hard one as it blended in with the tree but a good cache.First ever one
This is definitely one of my favourites. When travelling past with a friend. I had to take a detour for her to discover this one and video her find ??
Kids thought this one was particularly cool!! Another on our Sydney holiday.
That's was a really great, fun and exciting find. It's my favourite to date. Really original. Had a great laugh with finding this one with curlyjow. In a nice bushy surrounds, which was really nice. Highly recommended
Oh this is my favourite BY FAR.. well done. What an absolutely brilliant effort. Found it in the dark. Log nearly full though but what a great read. Was so excited with this one. Found with Chucktanoy
YIKES!! Pushed up the heart rate for a moment
Great to find a cache worth a hundred Mint Tins. THANK YOU!

Another day filled on my grid thanks to this cache. I only had time just after the sun has set but even in the dark it wasn't too difficult to find the cache and I love the log which is very creative.
Thanks for this great container.

Well that's one of the first of those type. Thanks. Busy spot and had to be careful
I’ve found a number of caches around Sydney today in the rain, but this one is the best yet!! Such an awesome cache idea and perfectly executed. Very worthy of a favourite point. TFTC
One of my favourite hides! So clever. I’ve been introducing my 89 year old grandma to geocaching and this was a perfect one to show her. No. 3 of post-hiatus cache-a-day challenge.
Out with wazza9 and Nana Nel got this one what a beauty. Thanks and fav point
I decided to swing by this highly favourited cache to see what all the fuss was about!
Parked across the bridge, wandered over and after a short search the cache was located!
I had a bit of a laugh because Sui_001 who is a local back home has hidden a micro version of this cache before , so was funny seeing one this LARGE.
Opened it up and was treated to even more surprises! Ok that is cool!
Favourite point from me also to add to the collection

After a bit of a search initially in the wrong spots, found the well hidden cache. Really enjoyed the well made container and its 'LOG'book. Deserves an FP. TFTC Calypso
First cache we have looked for. We had no idea what to expect and found it very clever
11062 Located by baby&Mrs gopher in company with Nana Nel, Wazza9 and tronador at 1325. on our urban caching drive to pick up some of the GC caches and some LGA's. SL Tnx Calypso62 an FP from us.
TFTC. Loved it and I will be giving you a favourite point. I was out yesterday geocaching with Mighty Minions and we found this cache first off the rank. I did let out a soft squeal when I pulled the log out of the cache. I’m not frightened of bugs but wasn’t expecting what came out. I laughed at myself.

Day 20, and last, of the road trip to Townsville with LuckyL10n for the mega. Today was day 7 of the drive back to Canberra.
After a night in Dungog it was time to pick off a few more counties that have been missed on previous trips. We travel through down to Raymond Terrace, then onto Sydney for a few northern counties before grabbing our last cache for the rip in Goulburn. Only a handful of caches for the day, however another couple of counties were crossed off.
As for the cache, nicley played Calypso62.....great cache and very neat log. Fav point for your troubles. Hope to see you at a Mega again soon....

#14428 - 11:53:00 AM; Day twenty, the final day of the Townsville Mega adventure with Sol de lune. Spent last night in Dungog and heading south for home today. Only a few stops on the agenda today to add some more counties and an adventure lab. Unless indicated in the log, all caches were found in good order and logs signed L.L10n & Sdl or vice versa. Parked on the opposite side of the creek and made our way to GZ for a find on this well constructed cache. A favourite for the novelty! TFTC Calypso62
Quick park and grab, fantastically made, loved the log!
A bit of a wet day, so opened it up and found a few extra bugs haha.
Well made, nicely done C62.
