A quick find here this morning during a short caching trip. The park was deserted which made the search easier. Saw a nice blue-tongue lizard though... Thank you for the cache jess12310.
Had to head up to Joondalup today so afterwards decided to just keep on driving and spend an hour or so tidying up the map around Alkimos. Most looked like quick easy finds / drive-bys which was perfect on this hot day 
The heat also meant the muggle quota was very low today, with every park I visited completely deserted. This was one of the hides I stopped off at. Parked up along Tepito Grove which made for an easy walk across to GZ. Pretty much went straight to this one so a very quick find Not sure the container will stand up to the elements but for now everything is ok. Turning around I realised the sand block wall right behind me was covered in bees, looks like they are preparing to nest there as there were large clumps of them gathering together on the wall. I would have been more cautious walking up if I had noticed them beforehand... but I was too busy looking down for a cache! Would recommend caution for future visitors though. TFTC

TFTCNo luck for us today. Didn't like traipsing through the garden bed. At least we got out for a walk!
A nice quick find now to try and get junior yeatesy89 to leave the play equipment tftc
A trip up to the Northern suburbs to make the most of this beautiful weather and continue on a caching hunt, happy to say we came up trumps and walked away with a smiley TFTC
Thank you! Out finding a few caches to finish up the current souvenir challenge. Happy to make the find here.
Nice park area with nice weather - warm with sunny. Thanks for the cache and hunt.

Now that we are back in the country, time for megawat60 and I to tend to some clearing of recent caches, the type of housework I like! My find once I worked out where to go. TFTC!
Plans were made a few days ago to meet up with Barnzy12 and do a caching run north of the river as far as yanchep and cache our way back. We had a very good day with about 50 finds with about a dozen puzzle caches included and we were very fortunate to be in the area where FTFS were published and we managed to grab 3 of them. Most caches were found without any problems with a few that took a bit of searching. A big thanks to all the CO,S for placing these caches
Headed out for a caching run with ooh yeh with the main goal of cleaning up the Alkimos area, we started early and worked our way up to the alkimos area ultimately finishing up in Yancheng before grabbing a few more on the way home, including a slight change of plans for some FTFs of which we managed to get 3.
Finished off the day with the new cache at shipwreck park.
All in all a good day out with approximately fifty finds including a number of puzzles.
Thanks to the local COs for their hides.

Found it. TFTC jess12310. It was a process of elimination because my GPS did not settle.
FTF@1050. Tried a few spots (ouch) before coming back to the first, bang on co-ords again! TFTC!
