Despite being out and about in the suburbs today, I'd neglected to pick up a cache for today's streak find and had to head out under the cover of darkness to grab a quick trad!Granted, this was immediately after going for a trip to Gelato Messina, so it's not as though it had to be dark, but the ice-cream was worth it!I grabbed a cheeky AdLab waypoint en route, then navigated through the temporary fencing over to the hide.I wasn't sure how accessible it was going to be, but it ended up being very straightforward to approach gz and make a simple find in the first predicted place.The bunnies were having a great time this evening and provided some company for the walk back.Thanks to Kittykatch and GrimRaider for the hide!

On campus tonight for an after-work tutorial. First cache I was unable to find, this one I was able to wander up to. After dark there are not many people wandering around which made it easier to wander up and grab.

I've had classes in this part of campus - mainly philosophy ones. There's a few interesting things on the walls around the places.

Thanks for the hide and the crisp, fresh log sheets!

Out and about on a Saturday morning and the ANU is always a good place for a weekend run. Managed to park nearby and the hunt was on. Took a minute to work out the exact spot, but all was good and the cache was soon in hand. Log signed, cache replaced and I was off for one more in the area.

Thanks for this one guys....
