We didn’t find this one even after reading the hint which should have made it clear. We think it’s gone unless were just not good at this Lots it muggles made it even harder. Down below is a pic of my daughter quickly trying to act natural
Yay. Took us a while but found it eventually. Looking on the wrong side of path
Thanks again fo another good hide . It had been left disturbed , but we fixed it up .
Tftc Walking with the pup while the kids are riding and fighting over each find! I am sure all geocachers with kids have the same issue!!
Still going finding the Aqueduct trail caches.
I need to give a couple of hearts to the series so here is one.

With our respective caching buddies out of town or otherwise occupied this weekend, spiffy and I decided to team up, drag out the bikes and find a trail or two. I remember riding this trail with jimbo80 finding the first incarnation of this series. With minor relocations and perhaps a bit more experience, we managed to find all hides quite easily this time. All but one clues were gathered, the remaining missing one deduced through trial and error in the checker. A lovely ride on a great trail.

Well I didn't go away anywhere for the long weekend and neither did OzHockeyChick. So today we went on a bike ride along a couple of trails and this was one of them.
Started off and in the 1st 2 caches .... no clues .... oh no ... they soon started though but we ended up missing one of them (maybe #2 since it looked like a replacement log) but with only a few hits on the checker we soon got GZ without the last clue.
It was a busy little trail along here today with the beautiful weather but it was handy having the bikes and a companion so we looked a lot less suspicious.
Didn't have any problems with any of the finds today apart from waiting for muggles.
Thanks Pa_i_ge for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

Almost my last one today. Well maybe just one more! This is a pleasant way to spend a sunny afternoon!
My Mum was visiting from Ireland and I had taken the day off work to spend it with her. I had a challenge cache I was keen to pick up near here so I talked up the walk along the Maroondah Aqueduct Trail and a few caches as a nice morning outing. The weather didn't quite cooperate but we pushed on regardless and it wasn't raining at this point. This was our first stop after parking nearby on Parsons Rd. A quick find in a likely spot here. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache and the series Pa_i_ge. I forgot the clue here so I'll have to pop back another time.
Muggles afoot on the first pass, so grabbed on return. I now qualify for a livestock challenge !

I decided to take some extra days off work to extend that holiday feeling and have been reacquainting myself with my bike. Today I decided to grab the newish series down the Aqueduct Trail.
Another quick find on the deserted trail. TFTC.

The latest *3-2-1 Souvenir* has been nagging at me to get out and find some caches... after all, I am currently sitting on 0-0-0. It's not so much that I am a fan of souvenirs but they do give a little more encouragement to go hunting!
This power trail has been around for a little while now so I decided to make a start on it... it was a bit too warm and I was a bit too busy to complete the whole thing! I parked at the end of Margaret Street, walked across the bridge and turned east. A short, pleasant stroll along the trail and I was looking for the cache... and that didn't take long for an easy find.
Thanks **Pa_i_ge** for the cache... and the series.

Travelling home from work via a cache for my streak, out for a walk in the heat of the day, or was that cool, will I beat the rain?
A quick find at least, time to go, quicker now!

Have done a great job with these Pa_i_ge, perfect for excited junior caches. Found with Jimmytherat & the junior cachers.
TFTC Pa_i_ge. Another solid find by junior apprentice cachers FlopsyBunny, RaRa and Syd. Another short fuel stop and its off we go again! Still no snakes. Yay!. Jimmytherat with Noelle04. [Found on 2 October.]
Found this one not where the GPS said it was but it was nearby. Muggles appear out of nowhere so you need to be on guard. We are getting very good at tying shoelaces to let the muggles past before we continue our searching. TFTC
Out for a walk with Bunadoorian this afternoon trying to clear up some caches around here. It was a great day to meet up with lots of dogs and their owners. Cache found in good condition although on opposite side to where my GPS had it but according to the hint. TFTC Pa_i_ge
Out collecting a few more. The phone led me down the garden path. Then it corrected itself and back to the main trail for a quick find.

After working this morning I decided to spend the afternoon enjoying the sunshine and picked this trail as I hadn’t previously heard about the aqueduct before.
It was a nice walk and very quiet as most people must be watching the footy.
After relocating the car to the other end of the trail it was time to tackle the last 4 in this series.
A nice trail and very narrow roads around here where the aqueduct goes under them.
Another good find and back to the next one.
Thanks pa_i_ge TFTC.

A second day along this trail, and a great place to walk. This one was an easy find. Thanks Pa_i_ge
Walking our dogs along the aquaduct trail the matriarch of Clint and Abby's family was setting quite a pace - so we managed to skip a few along the way. Fortunely, we filled some gaps on the return visit much to her consternation. This was a curious one - I'm sure the GPS was telling us it was on the other side of the trail. But again, a little poking around and the cache was quickly discovered. TFTC!
After a barrage of emails a few days ago Trailstevo and I headed out hunting along the trail. A stead 8km out and back and most of the cache in the series found. No.5 eluded us, and we must have forgot to pick up another clue elsewhere. Anyway with two missing numbers we played with the variables and found a likely spot, and lucky for us it was correct. Collected and few other multi's before heading home. A good haul for the night
Thanks for the series and fun pa_i_ge

Today was the first chance I had to get out to search for this series which is close to my home.
This afternoon, even though rain was very threatening, I started on the series.
I had to skip past the two previous caches in the series as there were quite a few dog walkers chatting along the path.
The rain was starting to get heavier so after completing my tasks here I started back towards my car.
Thank you pa_i_ge for adopting/continuing this series.

After the ping, ping, ping of multiple emails alerting us to a new series nearby, earlier in the week, Gunks and I headed out to tackle the series and some nearby multis. Nice walk with the firework explosions of the nearby Diamond Creek fair to liven up the night. Thanks for the series pa_i_ge
Found with my caching partner, Marion133, on Thursday (12/9/19). Didn’t quite have time to do the online logs that day.
The GPS didn’t want to settle down on this one, but we had a feel for the hides by this point so we were able to pick it regardless. The geodog got to do some impromptu training drills while we waited for another walker to pass by, and was decidedly unimpressed. TFTC

Cockroaches? No really, I don’t mind them at all Doing a good job guarding the cache. Left a TB for them to look after as well.
Another FTF together with Gis+Ger (mum and dad) on this perfect caching morning.
