Easy find great swaps! TFC

What a great idea for the front garden. The geokids did like this but not as much as the geomum, she loves fairy stuff. Unfortunately the boys are getting a bit old for that and it’s getting harder for them to lift their heads up from the iPads or books that come with us on trips out for the day. Duties done and replaced TFTC toriaz

Found on the way home from a caching morning out. I didn't realise I hadn't done this one, so a short detour for a quick find. Signed log and returned as found. TFTC

Thank you so much for a fantastic cache

Thanks for the cache. I love these big caches.

We do believe in fairies!

#7029. I flew over from New Zealand on Sunday. Here to attend the Mega event next weekend. But before then I have a week of geocaching in NSW and ACT. I am a challenge cache junkie so had to make a trip up to the Blue Mountains to pick up the challenges in this area. While in the general vicinity I stopped to grab a few traditional caches. This was one of them. Soon as I saw this was a large cache I had to divert from my other mission and come down this side road. Nice presentation around the cache and a lovely big container full of goodies. Signed the logbook and returned cache where found. Thanks Toriaz, The Imp and Monkey Girl for setting up this enchanting roadside cache.

My daughter had a friend over who was interested to go geocaching with us today. We had just done her first Geocache with our family and all enjoyed it, yet they were keen for more...this cache seemed perfect for the theme. We were lucky enough to see CO and have a chat while my kids went crazy over all the swaps they saw. Such a lovely cache and the kids really enjoyed this one, with their traded treasures.TFTC!

Tftc on a beautiful day in the blue mountains. And got to meet the owner of this geocach. Hope u find some one to pick up some of the TB I left at your place. Have a good one on the event today

Found today on our way back home after our holiday down here with my family. Awesome hide, took a bit to find

After a chilly and windy weekend in Leura we were heading home today - in a search for a couple of easy to access caches spotted this, once we saw it was a large we were sold! We did the caches at the nearby cemetery on our first foray in these parts, so had an idea where we were going. The purple mailbox made us pull over, then the fairy kingdom was spotted by the kids. We dropped a smurf TB in, and took Princess Fiona with us. Good fun..... TFTC Toriaz

Tftc. Awesome cache!

The kids loved this one! Tftc

Great on for the kids

Awesome cache, thanks

Thanks good (prize) kind of box

Caching with oldmorty in Springwood.
What a fun cache.
And I like the strategically parked car to hide the geocachers from the muggles.
Thanks Toriaz for placing this cache here for us to find.

On our return to Sydney after a week away, frazeydaze and I stopped off at Springwood for lunch and to grab a couple of caches. After parking at gz we soon spotted the fairy door and it was soon CIH. TFTC Toriaz.

Quick park and grab
Thanks for the cache

Found it! Amazing!

Cute lil spot and so many trackables

Found with BrodyT tftc

What an amazing cache thank you! A special little dragon is now on board!

TB drop - dropping in the trackables I picked up at a weekend event.

Good fun for the grandies will return with them soon. TFTC.

Also placed a trackable here which I obtained quite some time ago. Oops sorry. It was in the bottom of my bag - no excuses just plain forgot!

Have moved it (from Uralla NSW) so it is now closer to an international airport on its way to its intended destination in Washington.

Found with geobrother who intends to return with the grandkids. TFTC Toriaz.

Drop by with GeoZoe to return a homesick GPS unit. Lots of TBs in there, but I have so many on my books at the moment. TFTC for the cache and the GPS Toriaz!

Dropped by with geodad. Lots of nice things in there but nothing to swap.

Good sized cache. Signed and replaced. Thanks for placing. Tftc

Awesome little cache

Cooool

In Spring we would go to Springwood and surrounds, of course.
There was no trouble in locating the faerie and she clearly has a strong liking for the colour blue. She waved us towards her treasure chest, which was full of delightful things for the kids to swap. Her visitors' book was signed, the trackable numbers were noted for discovery purposes and we said farewell before we headed off. Thanks go to Toriaz, The Imo & Monkey Girl for this cache placement.

TB drop

Happy International Geocaching Day!
Good coords and magic hide! We spotted the fairy but she had been blown over the back of her rock. She is back where she needs to be now! Fave for the effort!

Cute find!!

Cache find No. 2637
Streak Day: 961

A quick find with Snoopy1976 while in the area today. TFTC

Streak Day #1850 - Up this way with dave8153 for a lunch date with the parentals so we stopped by for this easy one. TFTC

I had heard about the cache name before so I guessed what would be at GZ, but my youngest was surprised by the pretty decorations around the cache.

TFTC.

Found the fairy, found the cache. Lovely decorations. I'm sure the local fairies will be happy stopping by here. TFTC

It's not every day you encounter a faerie and nice to do it before the end of the magic creatures souvenir offer. They certainly are magical creatures and have made a very nice home for themselves in this front yard. It must have been Brew that was pure of heart and as a reward got to discover a handful of trackables.
TFTC Toriaz

What a lovely find.
The kids would love it!
TFTC

Thanks for placing this cache. Finding it will give pleasure to lots of people.

We were very confused until we read the attributes but very excited to be FTF! (Ok, 4th to find. Or maybe 5th!). It was a really sweet find for Miss 9. TFTC

#4647- it is fitting that since I was looking for one more cache to reach the ‘Yeti’ in the Mythical creatures hunt, that this one should appear close to home yesterday. A lovely large cache awaited, so I left 4 trackables for future cachers to move on. Very cute cache- Thanks.

FTF!!!!!!! We were lounging about at home, with not much in mind besides the swimming training we had oncoming. A familiar sound went off, and we, my GeoBro, assumed GeoDad would check it and tell us if it was anything special. Apparently, he ignored it, and we could’ve lost our FTF! But luckily we got there just in the nick of time as Marchaj and his crew pulled up. TFTC, and for our First FTF!

Published

TFTC - FTF - I was sitting at home contemplating our return to the swimming pool, the kids have been sick for over two weeks, when a familiar sound rang out. Been off with fairies I unknowingly ignored the noise for over an hour. Then within my dreams a more familiar sound rang out, it was the sound of our fairy godmother whispering deep within my subconscious, “MOVE YOUR BUT, it’s an FTF and it’s close!”. It was only three km away so we gathered our swim gear, jumped in the car and took of like a fairy being chased by a demon. On arrival, my son spotted the fairy and then the cache, “it’s a FTF” my son called out (a bit too loud), performed out duties and placed it back under their protection. Upon turning the car around, a fellow catcher pulled up looking for their first FTF, apparently the same fairy godmother whispered into his ear also. Who says everyone has their own fairy looking after them? We seem to share, thanks fairy godmother and a big thanks to Toriaz, The Imp and Monkey girl for placing the cache.

Another nearly FTF...we will get it one day??? This was as close as it gets, catching up with shoeiiz as they were leaving gz proudly carrying the FTF trophy and their winners medals...I did think waving flags out of the windows and the taunting was a bit much but I guess winners are grinners...
