It was nice to meet our visitors and I Love the cameraderie at events Cool

Great event! Thank you so much to all the friendly local cachers who came to the event, it was a wonderful evening!

Thank you everyone who came! I enjoyed visiting with you, and hearing about your adventures and knowledge of geocaching. My geocaching partners in this crazy activity arrived just a little late bringing more stories to share. It was a great time for my first event that I organized. Wish all many more tales and adventures to share. Safe caching to all.

Since I appear to be stuck in Melbourne and I haven't been to the Botanic Gardens, I figure I need to get to this event!
 
02-Feb-18
Oops forgot to log this. I'll be there! Will be caching around the area just before.
 
02-Feb-18
We’ll try to attend - we’re not really the grup, but we’ll be delighted to meet Aussie GC’s!

What a great turn out! Loved meeting everyone, especially the teamwork for the Woozle! Aussies Rock!

Visiting from Northern Wisconsin, USA, and have a great time in 4 days near the Melbourne area before we head to Sydney.

What a great turn out this evening. The weather was perfect for a welcome to Melbourne event. Met some cachers from the USA as well as a bonus one from Germany! Hope you all enjoy your caching adventures in Australia and maybe we'll cross paths again one day.

I came after work. Grabbed a bite in the city beforehand. No one likes hangry sharks. Took the most convoluted way to the event and was about to grab a cache but discovered that the handbag was penfree. A 1st!
Lovely to meet you all and definitely would love to visit you all one day. I am totally envious of your holiday. It's jam packed and that's how I like em too.
Swapped a few TBs pathtags etc and chatted with others that came.
Then we went off and hunted a Woozle. Lovely event. I'm glad I came along. Tftc

Cache of the day and a meet! How perfect is that? We get to welcome some international cachers to Australia and some good caching talks!

Thanks for the meet Aix sponsa!

Did manage to catch my 2 trains on time and I am relaxing now. I was very hot by the time I walked to Flinders St Station.
Sorry it was such a quick visit.
Thanks for putting the event on today and I hope you enjoy your stay here in Australia.

Thanks for organising.

Very nice to meet a few of the locals as well as visitors. How good are the Botanical Gardens? Astonishingly good!

After my first 12 days in Australia, i decided to attend to this event. The plan, to meet people, spend time outside, see new places and talk english, worked very well. It was a nice event. Thanks for the organization and the little present.

Of course David was there, but Mary was unable to attend for once. Great to see quite a few old friends there and to meet our three visiting Event hosts. Lots of tales told all round, and traded a few pathtags as well. Also managed to collect a couple of traditionals on the way out, so a productive outing indeed. Our thanks to Aix sponsa, Mocrin and lostcheq.

Well I'd love to meet more Americans! Hopefully I can get there after work and will try to remember to bring my pathtags.
