QEII - Perth Childrens Hospital Shenton Park, Western Australia, Australia
By olthomas on 18-Feb-19. Waypoint GC83P2Q

Time to let this one go. The vegetation is very different to when it was placed.

If it’s in vegetation could not go digging around. Trees would have been a better option

Lots of vegetation searched but no luck today

I’m Perth having treatment so on a rest day we decided to go for a walk and find a cache. TFTC

Still there.

No find

No find today

Nice. Quick and easy though coords are a bit off. TFTC

Quick find after reading CO last entry.
About 4m east of where I started looking.
TFTC

Tftc. Didn't realise what car park was being used for

Ooh that was tricky. Had nurses trying to see what we were up to haha. Oh well we signed and replaced quickly. TFTC olthomas

I really enjoy your caches. TFTC.

Thanks olthomas for this nice Traditional here and my number 5296.
Cache was found 3 Oct 2021 13:15 in a good condition.

Whew, hard find. This is my number 294. #nearly300

#4 on our quest today

Out and about today and I decided to check the map to see what was nearby.
I find myself with time to kill so I stopped by here for a find.

Many thanks to olthomas for placing and maintaining QEII - Perth Childrens Hospital. I found it, I signed it, and put it back as found.

Found it! Yessss
Thank you!

??

Adding some White Glo for an interesting swap

This is 430 find for me.
Thank you olthomas for the cache.

Got dropped off about as close as possible to GZ and had a good look where the GPS was pointing to turn up nothing so assuming there might have been some building interference put the phone away and thought where would I place the cache, headed in and voila cache in hand just as the car pulled back up.

A fine night out spent teamed up with SirFancy & I C Nothing grabbing finds around the river and city.

In total I finished with 16 finds, 0 DNF’s & 1 challenge cache to be claimed once qualified.

Thanks olthomas for placing this cache for me to find, this is find number 2915 for me.

Out with Cirrus_WA and Sir Fancy to collect some caches tonight. All good finds in good condition. Thanks for placing.

Found it approximately 6m away from coords, but didn't take too long after widening my search area. Cache in good order. Signed and replaced safely as found. Tftc

Found despite the misleading GPS bounce and the multiple hesitations in venturing forth between persistent surges in traffic .

Another Sunday expedition for the jinta crew and we headed to this neck of the woods to clear away a few more caches from the map. We had a fun time following the GPS on our mornings adventure and this cache was one we stumbled across today. Cheers and TFTC.

G’day there olthomas, I was in this area today and found your cache QEII - Perth Childrens Hospital GC83P2Q. I added my name to the log book at 7:49 am on 21 February 2021. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!

Venturing to and fro, here and there, glen and hill. In the area today for some meetings, and took the opporturnity to clear some caches before I ventured home.


Felt a little exposed walking to the GZ, but a quick find eased the ansiety.

Thanks olthomas for bringing me to this location and taking the time to hide and maintain this cache. I found the cache at 10:11:00. This was my Find 8 for today out of a Total number of 14 Finds and 2 DNF for for this Caching Outing. The cache was found in Good Condition and I signed the log and returned the cache as I found it.

This find brings my total number of Finds to 5236.

With the weather being considerably better than yesterday, the decision was made to head out in search of a few caches. An enjoyable afternoon was had as we made our way through the western suburbs and unless otherwise stated, all caches were found in good condition.

TFTC

After a lovely couple of hours in Kings Park I took the opportunity to pick up a few caches & labs on the drive back home. Being another public holiday I included 3 caches around Charlies that had previously escaped me. This one had also been MIA before so was great to make a quick find here today. With the RAC attending a broken down car opposite GZ I was also glad the hiding spot was not too exposed. Picked up the TB and will help move along. No problems here, thanks again to the CO for their quick maintenance. TFTC

Good spot everything still inside

Co-ordinates were a bit out here but common sense prevailed. My little grandson has been a patient in this hospital 3 times in his short little life, a little trooper!
Left a pretty TB in here to send on his travels.

TFTC

Well hidden but GPS bounced hither and yon So we needed a broad search area.
TFTC

Yeah! 200! Found while brother was in hospital. TFTC

Found in full view, all good now and tucked away out of sight. TFTC

All nice and dry. Thanks

Yabba dabba doo I finally found it.
TFTC

Found on my run home, thanks

Wow the vegetation has grown!! Not sure if still there.... probably not. Replaced at eastern end of host.

Had a rummage around in a few wet places but this one escaped me today.

Catching up on some late logs.

The Better Half had an appointment with specialist over this way then decided to do some caching on the way home after the appointment.

Was a quick find of the cache. Log was signed and the cache replaced as it was found.

Thanks olthomas for placing this cache for us to find.

Thanks olthomas for placing this cache for us to find.

Feeling conspicuous but Sunday’s are at least not so busy. Tftc

Workmen have cut the bushes beside the hide tho the cache is fine. TFTC

Quick find even with the GPS playing games.

I came, I saw, I signed the logged. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.

*Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*

Felt like I was planting an explosive or something here. Easy find TFTC

Out n about North of the river today collecting some caches trying to clear the map of those closest to home to TFTH

Here with my son to see the plastic surgeon after he decided to rearrange his nose using the tv cabinet! Took me a minute to gain my bearings. Spending all day at the hospital messes with ones mind! Easy find when I looked in the right spot. Tftc

Came to dental clinic with friend today decided to find a cache whilst she was at her appointment thanks. Couldn’t get my pen to work to sign

After an appointment nearby, baby (or maybe moreso mummy) atCat needed a walk to settle down. We bumped into blinknurded at GZ which was lucky for us, as she made the find. Turns out the cache is easier to get to than it appears on the map! TFTC Olthomas

Got sprung for the first time. Was a little anxious how I’d explain my creeping about this bushes and had decided to tell the truth, when she asked me “geocaching?”

Was great to meet atCatpacity, and find this and the next one together.

TFTC!!

TFTC

Easy find

TFTC

Needed to get fresh air
Thanks for the inspiration

Thankyou - should be easy to complete this week streak with me being at work everyday this week.

Hedge has very very recently had a trim ( ? Today), but it’s still there!

TFTC

Quick grab by chance since walking past it anyway. Easy find and cache is in a great condition.

Easy find TFTC

Tftf

Took longer than it should have.

Cache- good condition
Took- nothing
Left- army men

My GPS had me much closer to the road. Once I decided to check places close to the building I managed to locate it.
So many places this cache could be and with everyone wandering around in the garden it would be a good idea to have a clue to narrow it down otherwise some attentive gardener will get their feathers ruffled.
While here I grabbed the 2 trackable items

20/05/2019 - 11.07am

App with Dr at SCGH at 9.30 so decided doing the cache and enjoyed walk around the loop. Signed the log as EV or Everlasting.
Discovered the TBs.

Thanks olthomas for hide the cache and hunt.

A nice quick find here after the event in Kings Park. Discovered the 2 TBs but left them in the container. Thank you for the cache olthomas.

Quick find. Tftc

Today we cycled to the city and its surrounding area on cache tour. In still very nice weather, we are very happy to visit the various hiding places. [^] All caches could be found and hereby thank all the owners, the Moorhelmi's from Germany.

Took a while to locate this one, though it shouldn't have. Ended up resorting to PAF. My GPSr was a little off here. TfTC

Found it. TFTC olthomas. Quick fine here. Replaced as found

A quick find with neva2old tftc

Out with yeatesy89 a quick find here tftc

Joined forces with richlink today to find a few caches in the area before they had to head back south again. Thanks for the cache olthomas.

Geo-hubby had an appointment nearby so when he had finished early, we met up with iluvtrekking to log this series. No problem locating.. Thanks olthomas

Out for a walk with the little munchkin and happened to end up walking past this cache. We doubled back to GZ and it was a quick find. TFTC

Was in the area again this evening so stopped off to hunt the rest of tee caches in the area.
Quick find here. Cache was larger than I was expecting. TFTC

Nice quick find. The cache is in good condition.

What else would you be doing on a wet Saturday afternoon but caching. TFTC olthomas

Today I found two more of the caches around the QEII Medical Centre. That just leaves Muggle Central to go. Thanks for the caches olthomas.

Last cache that I found yesterday. There was really only one place it could be. It was great to finish with a big one! I'll be back sooner or later to attempt the ones that were overrun with muggles. TFTC.

Early morning caching run with Barnzey12 and Ooh Yeh. Lucky enough to be able to park right next to ground zero due to the time of day. Nice quick find. Log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC

Out with ooh yeh and RLAU to grab a couple of caches this morning.

A quick find here. Thanks for putting these new ones out not too far from my mothers house, always handy.

Thanks

Found it

Being early in the morning we managed to park right next to GZ. A quick find then onto the next one TFTC olthomas

Cannot say this was a quick find as i was using the phone and it was a bit jumpy. Tried to find it where I wanted it to be (without success) so had to look dodgy and go where i didn't want to go. Found it though so there is an upside. Very glad to sign the log and get out of there with a security guard located just across the road. TFTC.

Quick find TFTH

Very few people about as I rode up to the spot. Then buses appeared from nowhere. Walkers appeared. People arriving for work. Nevertheless I got about my work and came up with a quick find. I was able to crouch behind bushes while I signed the log. Thanks for the cache.

Whoops. Logged the wrong find. Here’s the actual find for the day.

Phew. Far quieter at this location than in front of the hospital. Great to discover a big container. Thanks.

we had to do some pick ups at mummy Laxa's work.
no problems in making a quick find . Thanks for the cache olthomas

Coords have me on the road both on the phone and GPS. Satellite seems to shed some light but it appears I have cache eye....

After an extensive search, I’m all up empty. GZ has me in the middle of the road. I’ve searched everywhere within 20m of where I think GZ possibly could be and also where listed. Sadly I think I’ll accept defeat here.

After a note and the owner messaging me, it was soon established that the coords and satellite location were both a long way out.

A third search after a coordinate update made for a very quick 30 second find, about 20 odd metres from the initial GZ (10-15 from Satellite GZ). *FTF* @ 2001hrs. Thanks for your prompt replies olthomas!

I’d just like to say I only moved the coords 10.8m

Coordinates changed from:
S 31° 58.230 E 115° 49.020

Coordinates changed to:

Distance from original: 35.5 feet or 10.8 meters.

Dyslexic first time round!
