Cache is disabled as its been muggled.
Will look to replacing after LGA lockdown is over as I'm in Parramatta LGA and cache is outside my area. Got to keep Covid safe.

Really great spot and Idea! The paper is a bit mushy and probably needs replacing
Not sure if this was where it's suppose to be we didn't find this one today.
Find #: 2,612
Companions: None
Muggles: None
Weather: Cool winter day
Cache condition: Good
After finding #1 in the series I walked down the avenue, passing some muggles playing tennis until I was at GZ. I quickly determined where the container was hiding (nice!) - TNLNSL. Of course, I forgot to write down the extra number for the final, so needed to return after finding the others (sigh). TFTC

This series continues to be made up of well thought out and well executed caches, however I didnt have to look for long before I found this guy. My phone is on 6% battery and I am really hoping I can finish the series before my phone runs out of battery!
Why is it I always get caught when I have to put the cache back? Otherwise a nice quick find. TFTC!
A quick find with the geodog Zelda while attempting the new AL around here.
Can't believe I had to resort to PAF. Rookie error. Sneaky hide.
Now I have all digits to get to the bonus. TFTC

A very relaxing walk with AusPol and the geopup through the reserve to find the last few of this series. This was a nice quick find in a beautiful shady location. Thanks for placing and maintaining these caches!
A lovely walk with OlMaLol to find the last of this series before the final. Interesting hint and easy find. Great location for the cache!
A little damp from the rain and someone not putting cache log back in. Packed full of ants beware!! Awesome hide
Wife is at Norwest private hospital for a weekly appointment, I am off finding a few caches whilst waiting for the visit to finish.
A clever hide on this one and could easily be missed. Signed log and replaced as found

Great place to visit. Nicely hidden caches. TFTC. I will favourite this one, but it applies to the whole series.
TFTC Thank you for hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity.
On a lovely winters day, morty8888 and I had our first day out caching since the lockdown restrictions were eased. We enjoyed the walk around the Balcombe Heights Estate, an area we hadn't previously visited. We also enjoyed the six quirky cache containers which we found without too much heartache. TFTC Sicad69.
First caching day with Oldmorty since the lockdown and restrictions. Perfect weather and we headed to an area we have danced around but not found.
The third find and even with the generous hint we both overlooked the obvious. Seen these quite a bit but still love the urban sneakiness of the container. Finger nails helped here and so after signing and noting clue, moved on. TFTC!

This is why I like geocaching; it takes you to places -even close to home- that you did not know they were there. I had a great stroll on the Balcombe Heights Estate, but unfortunately only time for the first two caches. So I will be back!

My favourite find so far. Loved the hint, and the way it was hidden is great! The kids were very impressed. Tftc%
Nice! I’m thankful I didn’t cut my fingernails this morning as I didn’t have any tool to use to get to it. TFTC
Great park and a sunny, breezy Saturday afternoon with minimal socially-distanced muggles around. What a clever container - really well-engineered. And we keep getting surprised at how far this great park stretches. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek
Good little hint awesome find.
New log may need to be added this ones nearly full

Found this evening with a few friends. Thanks for giving us some nice entertainment!
Tftc. Nice camo hidden in different places. I am enjoying exploring this park
First time "treasure hunting" with my kids! And first time for years for me. Was great fun and a great first adventure for them as they were able to succeed (with help)!
TFTC!
TFTC!
