Found it. Phew. Took a while as many muggles around.Coincidentally I was listening to Harry Potter 2 on my earbud while caching today. It gave me a smile when I saw the shop.GZ is closer to the building than the road.
No luck the first time but upon a second visit and after scouring some logs it was an easy find
Now I know why I couldnt find it last time, I was looking for a physical container. The cache was very basic indeed. Tftc
Unable to get to the event last week, but still came for a quick look. Cool looking shop, shame it wasnt open. Easy find here. Thanks for the fun
Found this one quickly. Unfortunately, the shop was not open today being a Monday. But that probably just saved us some money!
I forgot to get this one at th event so I decided to come back. I looked for ages either its not a 1.5 or its missing.
Back in Canberra for the Mega (moved away a couple years ago) excited to be back and get a bunch more smiley's I never got the chance the get. Found with bellahappychappy. Tftc!
Great HideThanks Briony33 for the cacheJames0116Tuesday, 26 Mar 20248:30:30pm AEDT4162
We have now moved to Canberra Park for 8 days to enjoy all that the Mega Event offersWe started our day with a couple of events, virtual & a few traditionalsCaching with Snakepitters prior to the Hogwart Event.This was a great way to visit the area,A simple enough cache but a great location FP givenThanks Briony33 for hiding this cache.
The Adelaide Leap Day Mega and Canberra Geobash gave us a great excuse for a road trip. This trip has shown us so many new and interesting places as weve chased LGAs, oldies, challenges, interesting D/T combinations, rarer cache types and favourites.Meeting up with friends old and new along the way, we sometimes cached together and sometimes alone but always had a great time.This evening we attended the Hogwarts Feast event and found this cache whilst waiting for the sausages to sizzle. Great hide. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for us and adding to our enjoyment.
Of course, it helps to be here during an event!The search was relatively straightforward - just look for the people signing the log already!On this occasion, that happened to be Sleepy_hollow from Canada who I spent some time meeting after the signing duties were out of the way for both of us.Great to hear his magical stories in a pretty magical place!Thanks to Briony33 for placing this cache here!
Today I had a plan on grabbing a variety of caches and all with a varying degree of types and difficulties. There is a great number of caches with special attributes and d/t's around town.For me it was an early start and I first took off to grab a cache and a virtual after I had fueled up at the local servo. I then raced off to grab a few more before I had to meet up with my caching buddy of the day Grannysmith. We had a huge day and a lot of laughs, there were few stories to catch up on and some great caches.Logs were signed and caches replaced as found. Thanks for the hides.
A lovely day out and about with geofriends and picking up a few caches before and after events today.To save space on log sheets, we signed as 6 for QLD, then 7 for QLD as a new team member arrived. Thank you, Briony33, for placing this cache and for the beaut hide.
A nice easy find, definitely looking forward to seeing whats inside the intriguing shop later TFTC
Found during Mega event. Briony33, thank you so much for placing it for everyone to enjoy and highlighting this area. ?? A lot of webs & spiders, fortunately the spiders leave us alone.
At Hogwarts Castle for a dinner event, any Harry Potter fans would be in heaven here.Im going to try their specialty drink called: QBrew!!!A great evening for a get together.AnsMisty ??
While in awe of Hogwarts and Harry Potter at this location we came to find this cache. A quick find later and we signed the log. Cheers and happy caching!
Super glad to have made it to CanberraWe are on our way to Canberra for the mega running a bit late but still early for opening registrations, we have taken the back roads from home at Corryong Victoria to the hume highway.can't wait for an awesome week.Log book and container are in great health. Great hide
Found today during the Hogwarts Feast event! It was a decent way to pass the time whilst everyone waited for the sausage sizzle to be ready. Today, the term Muggles became extremely apt! ??Thanks for the cache!
Over here for Canberra Mega picking up caches. TFTC looked as WA5 and N2OOutside Hogwarts fantastic
Find # 8,577 for me on 25 Mar 2024 at 7:50pm. This cache was found on our Canberra Mega adventure. After leaving Melbourne with PamJ in our little caravan, the plan is to stay a couple of nights at Bemm River, then a few more at Pambula before cruising into Canberra. This cache was found as part of this journey. Almost missed this one but it was pointed out by a friend at the event. Thanks Briony33, for giving back to the game. *Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*

Full time Nomads, travelling around Australia since 2014. Headed out for a big day in Canberra! 2 events and lots of walking around and around the Botanic Gardens then doing laps of Duntroon. Mr Felix added our name to this whilst chatting and eating. TFTC Briony33
I arrived i Canberra this afternoon to attend the Mega and while attending the Hogwarts feast Event I took time out to locate this cache and to sign the log. Thank you Briony33 for placing and maintaining the cache.
Found at 6:45 PM GAFF5.Lochi pointed out that there was a trad cache outside and I already knew that, but it slipped my mind due to the excitement of the event that we were enjoying. Went out of the shop and there was a line of cachers waiting to sign the log - so it was a very easy find, but fun!Thanks to Briony33
While attending the very close by event I just had to venture around the side to find the hide with about a doze other people.TFTC.
Enjoyed day today on way to Fyshwick event evening, via stop to spot, signed the log with good dry.. TFTC

After a week of caching around Adelaide incorporating The Great Leap Forward event, HansandLinda, MeandDe and I traveled to Canberra for the Easter Capital GeoBash Mega. After arriving at Canberra, we got out and about. Another great day for caching. ?? TFTC Briony33
We arrived early for the Hogwarts Event with plenty of time to look for the cache. Could have done with some magical powers to locate it.. this took far longer than it should have. A fantasy world inside that front door... TFTC Briony33.

Wanted to turn the blue frown from 12/06/2023 into a yellow smiley, so called past here with KBKL and Sixpak69 whilst visiting the store nearby. This time round, we located a log sheet in a baggie, but no physical cache. We signed the located log and replaced it exactly as we found it.Thanks for highlighting this location Briony33
In canberra for christmas, and driving around the area, not caching, but picking a few here and there to get the Summer Soltice Souv. We were looking for this one, when the assistants came out of the shop and asked if we were doing geocaching, we said we were, but they did not know where it was. We continued and eventually found it and showed them where it was, so if you get stuck, pop in and ask them.Total Caches Found 15288TFTC Briony33
Visited today as I work nearby and I’ve seen the DNFs
The “cache” is still there
Log was looking rather full so I hope the owner doesn’t mind I added a replacement
I left the original full logs in it in case
Happy caching

A trip to ACT with Chewinprickles - Day two on the deadly treadlies with Captain Tomato.
It started very chilly, but turned out a nice day for a ride.
Must be getting late in the day as we had no success here today.
We will try again before we leave.
Thanks, Robmc.

Greetings from Ireland - this is a generic log for now until I return home / have WiFi - I want to log all finds now so I don't forget them.
FPs will be awarded at the time of this log (where applicable) so I don't forget them. Tftc!

Second of the two around here while CrobDes continued her shopping nearby. I was a bit worried about whether or not this one given a few recent logs but I soon spotted the stash in the second place I looked and was signing the log 11:45.
TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks Briony33.

I attempted this one yesterday, however searching was hindered by the amount of muggles present. So I decided to PAF to see if I was searching the right place. I was told that I was so decided to go back again today and have another look. Fortunately today was muggle free and I had a really good look around however walked away empty handed. Not sure if the cache has been muggled or I am suffering cache blindness. Maybe the CO might wanna have a look to ensure the cache is still in place?
Thanks anyways Briony33, ill keep an eye on this listing and retry again soon.

Caching with Oddiewan and our improving 4-legged cacher pup, we are on holiday and headed to the Rutherglen mega for Easter weekend.
Made the grab and then checked out the Quizzards shop. What a magical place! Took photos and spoke to the shopkeepers.
Thanks for the fun, Briony33

Got him! 150 points and a win to Hufflepuff…
Just happened to be in the vicinity during that delightful little late summer window in Canberra between shops closing and the sun setting, to be henceforth known as the Wizarding Hour
I had tried for this one before with Baristayan on a night time expedition and we hadn’t succeeded….evidently still practicing the Lumus spell! Nice hiding spot…thanks for the cache ️

The car was in for a service bright and early this morning, and the wind was bitingly cold.
There is only so long one can sit in the coffee shop, so buttoning up the jackets we took ourselves off for a walk to while away the time.
We recall taking our geo-nieces for a visit here a few years ago.
After adding our name to the log, we continued to explore Fyshwick until the message arrived to say the car was now sorted. This was such a lovely diversion in an otherwise quite mundane morning.
Thanks Briony33

Oh! It seems I needed some sunlight. Once I walked there during the day I found it straight away! I feel silly I went at night time and couldn’t find it.
Sad face. Looked everywhere but couldn’t find it. I might have to come back another day
With my car needing new tires I was in Beard and had some time on the way back.
I had to read aome logs to eventually find this one.
Thank you Briony33 for putting the cache out and maintaining it.

A tricky hide - I guess I wasn't expecting to see that type of container employed where it was, although very effective! - which took me some time to locate. Fortunately it was pretty quiet here on a Sunday afternoon, allowing me to search undisturbed.
Cache and log in good condition.
Thanks, Briony33!

Was searching in the wrong spot last time. Nice cache! Plenty of room in the log book. Thanks Briony33!
No luck today. It's been a familiar theme for me for some of the caches in and around Fyshwick! Thanks anyway Briony33
