Made a quick stop and collect here in this pretty strip reserve. Loving this inner city area. TFTC RiddleyWalker
A great area to put a cache, I knew from the clue what to look for, still it was hiding in a out of the way place. Log signed without too much trouble. Thank you RiddleyWalker for getting me out today.Greytiger
Had a good idea what to look for but spent a bit of time barking up the wrong trees. Paused for a glance around and spotted it from afar, tftc
TFTC - took longer than we liked because we didnt know what the clue meant and the flowers werent bloomed but got there in the end. No pen with us unfortunately
It is good but I did not know what the hint meant until I looked it up, but it was still very good.
Big thanks to RiddleyWalker for creating this cache! Your effort brought an extra spark of excitement to our geocaching quest. This discovery was find number 1,196 for us, marking another memorable moment in our adventure. Living and traveling full-time across Australia in our Coaster Bus, we're always on the lookout for caches to uncover. To see more of our travels, feel free to follow our journey HERE...
I found this cache on my Mega Walk #23 - a 30,000 step walk along Merri Creek from Coburg to Fitzroy followed by a walk around the Docklands. After bidding goodbye to micaparamedic and Tiz13 at the Merri Creek Trail, I continued along St Georges Road for a few more caches starting here. A pity that this old line closed down as it would be a big asset if still available in some capacity. Thanks from D B-A
This proved to be more difficult than I expected. The GPSr put me at a spot where nothing seemed obvious. Checking the hint didn't help as nothing seemed to match. So expanding the search led to the right tree and finally I spotted the cache. Thanks to RidleyWalker for the cache.

Out and about with omegaman, there are always plenty of laughs while we are turning caches into smiles.This is one of the caches found today.Thanks RiddleyWalker for the cache.
I havent been up this way for ages but I was up here early on a Saturday morning to run an errand so we dropped in here and managed to park right nearby for a nice quick find.Thanks RiddleyWalker for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.
What a lovely spot and a cool piece of history. I can just imagine all the Melbournians hopping on and off the train in their finery Took a moment to find the cache, cute! Help the next cacher out and pop the log into the lid of the cache, not the container, otherwise it can be a pain to get out.
Had a quiet sneak around while enjoying the music from a tai chi class nearby. Great cache! TFTC
We were just about to give up but then we spotted it ! Turns out we are not blind after all. Just had to look harder
Note!Please replace log into the lid of the cache. Makes it much easier to retrieve.
Finalmente con Eletab sono arrivate le nostre vacanze in Australia e New Zealand.1 e 2 GiornoViaggio davvero lungo, pi di 18000 km da casa in linea d'aria !!!Appena arrivati affrontiamo una Traditional per ottenere il badge ma poi alziamo subito la posta con una multi ma la stanchezza prende il sopravvento e abbandoniamo velocemente per uscire a cena.La vera caccia inizia solo domani..3 GiornoCi svegliamo presto e abbiamo 2 ore e mezzo prima di colazione per cui i primi 10000 passi volano cos. A fine giornata arriviamo a farne le quattro volte di piu' (39.000). Abbiamo visitato un mercato di prodotti alimentari locali e esplorati 3 bellissimi parchi. 4 GiornoOggi abbiamo deciso di provare a usare i monopattini. Io non posso reggere un numero tale di passi per due settimane.... Una figata, io sono abituato ma Elio si comporta divinamente e per me se lo comprer hihihi. Nonostante questo arriviamo a oltre 20000....5 Giornomattina presto ci facciamo 2 ore e mezza di monopattino in giro per Lab poi partiamo per Dunedin per cercare le cache storiche che ci interessano. Qualche sosta obbligatoria a cache di elevato valore statistico allietano il viaggio !!! 6 GiornoTorniamo a Christchurch ma prima un'altra Novembre 2000 a Dunedin. Nel tragitto facciamo un po' di belle soste all'HQ di Steampunk e Moeraki.Domani all'alba partiamo per l'Australia... Iniziamo una nuova avventura!!!7 GiornoAereo OK Auto OK SIM Australia semi OK. Partiamo carichi come molle ma ben presto ci rendiamo conto che il traffico dati difficilissimo. Zone scoperte?!? Boh. Adesso in paese vicino ai Twelve Apostles tutto funziona bene.8 GiornoPartiamo con calma e dopo una buona colazione ci dirigiamo piano piano verso Melbourne percorrendo una buona parte della Ocean Road !! Ci fermiamo per alcune tappe programmate ma anche a sentimento.... Ricordiamoci che siamo in vacanza !!!!9 GiornoOggi abbiamo Ottobre 2000 in programma e un PowerTrail da fare in auto di regular, per Elio sar una faticaccia ma a lui questi posti piacciono da morire !!!10 GiornoGiornata dedicata a Melbourne centro citt. Alle 12.00 c' anche l'evento organizzato da Elio.La partenza in sordina in quanto non abbiamo ancora capito come muoverci. Da una Virtual troviamo due partecipanti all'event e ci invitano a geocacciare insieme. Finito il meeting facciamo un gruppetto per cercare qualche altra cache vicina.Geocacher tutti molto simpatici e disponibili. Thanks 11 GiornoVogliamo disintossicarci per una mattina dalla citt. Elio ha risolto una bella serie di Mistery per cui andiamo a farci, di domenica, la classica passeggiata fuori porta..Poi nel pomeriggio torniamo in centro a Melbourne.About this cache:nonostante sia di quelle antipatiche Elio la scova subito... E via verso nuove avventure...Thanks Owner
Con NitiFlex faremo parecchi km camminando, altri km in monopattino, quasi sempre in parchi e percorrendo una zona residenziale, posti tranquilli e ben tenuti.Saluti dall'ItaliaTFTC
The hint was a bit of a throw off because none had bloomed so I didnt know where to start looking! But when I found it I was very happy, cute cache !
Given the location, knew exactly what I was looking for. After a bit of stumbling around and branching out my search zone, I located it
Had a job in Brunswick rd so after I finished the job I ducked over and grabbed this cache.
Sl thanks for the cache

After a bit of a look, we managed to find it. We were thrown that it would be under a rock or hidden in the shrubbery.

I took a detour from airport after accidentally missing Bell Street exit. So I decided to grab a few caches in Brunswick before getting home. Cheers. Quick park and grab on a Saturday morning.
I think that I have been here two or three times previously so I have no idea why I have never logged this cache before. I must say that it made it easy to find this time. Thanks for the cache.
Fab little hide along the capital city trail. Thanks for the hide & love the clue.

#17257 - 10:03:00 AM; Last day in Melbourne and with a little time to kill between breakfast and a lunchtime appointment, made our way around a couple of the inner suburbs, caching along the way. Not exactly my favourite type of hide, but managed a relatively quick find after checking a couple of options. Log signed and on the road again! TFTC RiddleyWalker
You kick your self when you find it! It's crazy how well those little suckers hide themselves! Thank you for the cache! Awesome history MoonCake_
Thanks to RiddleyWalker for this hide in this park attached to the old circle easement.
A nice quick stop as Suscoe headed a little further to the east.

Didn’t take long after I searched what the hint meant! Cheeky one! Hanging in plain sight if you’re at the right angle.
Found it, what a beautiful day out here today! No pen on hand but hoping photo of log will do for now. TFTC!
Picking up some inner suburban caches today. Thank you RiddleyWalker for placing and maintaining Circle for us to find today.

I took advantage of another trip to the city to work towards clearing out the CBD, and also catch the train to a part just northeast of it that I hadn't really explored but was curious about nonetheless!
Also piquing my interest today was the city's e-scooter program; it was my first time using them around Melbourne and to travel between geocaches which was a lot of fun and very convenient, if a little pricey!
Seeing as though this traditional was vaguely on my way back to Rushall Station, I decided to scoot over to it and check things out.
There were a few muggles in the park, but they were far away enough to not be of any concern and I was left to search the area on my own.
I was surprised to spot the cache after only a few seconds amongst the foliage - my bison-detecting abilities appear to be improving!

This one took a while to find, but with a few sets of eyes we got there in the end. Tftc
Got to GZ, started my search. Not much luck. Looked at some logs, not much luck. Looked around and there it was staring me in the eye!
Thanks for placing the cache RiddleyWalker.

A quick find in the logical place with lots of people around but no-one checking what we were doing.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks for placing this geocache here for the community to find for without those who hide a geocache there can not be anyone who can find a geocache.

Log is full. People nearby with dog who was eying me off wondering what the hell I was doing! The dog not the people. Tftc another great green spot in melbourne
I had been nominated as the family taxi driver and had an hour to spare between 'fares'. I decided that it was time to make some progress on Reach the Peak with just a week to go.
The last one for the night. A quick find. TFTC.

Relatively muggle free this morning.

A nice quick find here.

Like the previous finders, took a few moments and it was right in front of us. …. Always obvious from the other side!
Nice and very child friendly facilities. Great to see kids “playing” outside and using all their personal
Physical and interpersonal skills.

Took me a few minutes and it was right in front of me!!! Lol great park and wonderful location TFTC
We're getting the hang of this now!! (Very newbie geocachers!). Great one TFTC!
Came out for a Sat arvo bike ride from Sydney Road area and along the inner north linear park. Wind was blowing from behind which was nice for a change but I nearly zoomed right past! Snooped around at GZ for a minute or two and soon had cache in hand.
Thanks for the opportunity to make your find today RiddleyWalker.

I mosied on up here for a look for this one after the party drop-off nearby. There was another party going on in the rotunda so a check of the hint to shorten my search time confirmed my suspicions and not long after I spotted the sneaky hide at 15:45.
TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks RiddleyWalker.

A timeless classic cache! Nice little find on our morning walk. Not very hard to spot, but it's definitely easier from some angles than others.

With our range increased to ten klicks as Lockdown #6 progresses, a whole lot of new caching options presented themselves. For a certain value of "whole lot", but hey, anything more than three is a lot at this point.
More often than not, I'd go past this little park on two wheels with barely a glance, but this afternoon, it was shank's pony from my starting point near the Merri Creek railway curve.
Speaking of railways, I love the gates and related elements used here.
The cache? Although my nemesis type of hide, this one was spotted without using the concussion method.
Thanks, RiddleyWalker
