Going out to find the cache because it has not been replaced where it was originally hidden. The coordinates will be updated and I need to find it before it will be available to look for by geocaches again. Sorry for the inconvenience guys, I’ll be as quick as I can
We searched for quite a while without luck. The GPSs and phones did not settle down at all. We might try again when next in the area.
Out last night with TrailStevo in the mornington area, we actually snuck out for a coffee and cake. The weather was threatening to go worse as we sat outside the cafe with the dog, in the dark, cold and drizzle. Did manage to find a few cache, plus a number of failures. TFTC
Headed off to Mornington to pick up some caches. Out of the way, so with headlamps on full beam it was quickly found. Tftc
*After a rare breakfast of delicious pancakes and a rather wet wander through the Mornington Midweek Market, it was time for some Peninsula caching.*
Not sure about the trolls, but something certainly dislodged this one - it was lying out in the open, Signed and returned to a safe spot.**CO may like to check**!
Thanks zuidemas for placing this cache.

Absolutely beautiful spot! Surrounded by gums and birds, the creek is a perfect place for exploring and playing Our little fella described it as "The kingdom of nature"
My geodaughter and I were unsuccessful today. Will have to return to this beautiful little spot another day to tick this one off.

Good little spot! Had to play it cool a few times with muggles passing through and the neighbours doing weekend yard chores. Luckily I had my kids around who were really just interesting in throwing leaves and sticks into the creek but they provided a good diversion of attention
Such a nice creek. Sat down to write the log and just listened to the creek bubble. thanks for bringing me here. TFTC
What a gorgeous spot! Thanks for bringing us here. So many possible hidey holes. Great tought out container too. TFTC Zuidemas. Gave it a favourite point
Hi Geocachers! I have become aware that this cache is frequently getting wet, and being pulled/falling out of its hiding place. I have taken it home for a night or two, so that I can change the container to a waterproof one and work out a more secure hiding place. Thanks for all your finds in the past months, and this cache will definitely be back on soon. Thanks for your cooperation, and Happy Hunting! 
Hi Zuidemas - found it in plain view today - pretty sure it's *cache creep* !
Hid it in most logical spot, within 50 cm of find. Please relocate as necessary. Cheers, Nightcachern.

A quick & somewhat disappointing find today, given the hunt this one's led me on.
Been over this spot several times before & it's never been in clear view! Concealed it the most logical spot.
TFTC Zuidemas, it's certainly had me searching.

I was down this way doing some maintenance on a few caches that I recently adopted. With just enough time to spare I headed to search for this one too. A most unexpected sight here of a pleasant little creek bubbling along and a nice wooden bridge providing a handy crossing point. Finding the cache took me a little while as I'm sure I passed it over first time around. In the end it was right in front of me so I'm just not 100% sure it is hidden as intended. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache zuidemas.

Found after work today easy find and in full view of the local neighbours.my TBs paid a visit.
It was a very hard find, lucky some fellow geocachers helped us out! Must have been hidden by some very small trolls!!

This is a very busy pathway and bridge, I arrived to look for the cache but there seemed to be a steady stream of muggles, eventually there was a break in the traffic and I was able to have a look around.
I had a look underneath and spotted the cache from afar.
I went to the other side and quickly had the cache in hand, the log was signed and the cache replaced before more muggles appeared.

I had to head down to Mornington for a quick appointment , so I looked at the surrounding map, only to discover there was an unfound cache on it that, surprise, surprise we had already found.
So, sorry for the late log, we found this cache on my last appointment down here on 28 July.
We had searched high and low, across and under and after about 15 minutes gave up. We were quite concerned by all the neigbourhood muggle activities, so returned to the car for a brief refocus.
I then said to EB99, "its got to be there", so she leapt out of the car and sure enough, it was.
Thanks zuidemas for the caching fun

Today I decided that I would go out for the day with my friend Nicholas to go do some Pokemon go, and geocaches if they just happened to come past haha. Anyways we headed down around the Mornington peninsula on this horrible rainy and windy day. On this day we even managed to find some snow on the top of main ridge for which that I have never seen there. Anyway I really appreciated the caches and I had a fun day looking for them all and I can't wait to go out and find some more soon. Thank for the cache and for the adventure.
This was a lovely little spot. Myself and my two boys were in the area today and stopped by here to look for this cache. There was plenty of water flowing under the bridge today and we didn't see any muggles about. It took quite a while to locate the cache but got there in the end.
Thanks for the hide zuidemas.

#72. Weather bit better today creek not flowing so furiously. Put log in ziplok bag as obviously prone to wet conditions. TFTC.
Raemoz found it on a bright sunny winter day. Knocked it down without looking. TFTC
While down on the Penninsula visiting my son for his birthday we were early enough to swing around and check this one out. Never been down this area of Mornington before and found some very interesting houses close by. Our timing was a lttle out in that a 4 x 4 was trying to get out while we were trying to park. Once we got that all sorted out it was an easy find. Cute little area here where there is this bridge for the locals to use. Thanks for bringing us here zuidemas
TFTC, forgot our writing stick but there was a replacement paper in there, thank you! Enjoying geocaching with my very dear friend I am claiming for introducing her to Geocaching last time I was holidaying in Melbourne. Peace
Great hiding spot! As the paper was really wet (see photo) I put in some temporary paper in there. It will need to be updated soon though. Tftc.
found after a short search, I was not expecting this type of container so a little bit surprised when I did find it! Log signed however in good order. TFTC!
Took us longer than it should have but we got there in the end.
Lived in this area for a long time as a kid but never knew this place was here.
Thanks zuidemas.
Chiefton!!!

Mit sph1 auch in Mornington. Gesucht, gefunden und geloggt. Danke sagt herbie112
Find #899. We never knew this place existed and were pleasantly surprised to find such a nice place. Cache was easily found but I had an idea of what I thought the container would be but I was wrong so it was made the find a little harder in that regard. Thanks zuidemas for the cache and a pleasant area.
found it. This is a very busy spot, our third time here and finally no one around to stop our search. It was found quickly, This is a great spot. Tftc
Have to admit, I'm not a fan of these containers but a lovely spot makes up for it. Found fairly quickly. Thanks for bringing me here and for the cache.
Took us a fair while but got there eventually. A nice quiet spot in Mornington. Thanks
After lunch nearby with Nut bear it was nice to be able to grab a cache afterwards. A lovely spot that we had not been to before. Cache was a quick find.
Thanks zuidemas for the cache and bringing us here.
