Why do I always make such hard work of the easy ones??
Arrived at this 1.1 with my customary dread and was not disappointed, it took a good 10mins to locate the obvious container. Just glad I was the first boy person in the park so didn’t get muggled.

I was needing to find a few more caches in the Whittlesea LGA and has there was an event on, I headed over this way once again.
I headed over to the wrong one first, after finding nothing, I headed to the other and the cache was found.

Found with icw. I drew the short straw or in this case the wrong table and icw made the find. Three children were busy exploring the creative playspace and their joyful shrieking distracted their mother while we signed and replaced the log. Tftc.
Found with at first I went to wrong table then gps recalibrated so I moved to other table and there it was, TFTC
Nice little snatch and grab. Enjoying "treasure hunting" with the grandkids. Sunny day but a chill wind! TFTC.

I had visited my *not-so-local* recycling centre and afterwards took the opportunity to drive on a bit further to find a Mystery cache for a long term challenge that I am working on. With that task completed, I was now heading home... stopping off for a few caches that were on my way... sort of!
A nice easy find but the log sheet is full and I had to find somewhere to write that didn't obliterate previous logs...
Thanks **billnmyrle** for this cache...

Managed to sit and look at a cow and sign the log . It’s full and needs replacing . Thankyou for a lovely walk through the parks
The park was being used, so I wasn't able to sign log. Cache was visible from the seat, so I moved it a fraction. It is still in the same spot, just less visible.

The king has enjoyed his visit to Doreen and recommends this park for the kids to enjoy a day of fun and frivolity. LLTK
The Broads and The Keenan’s but no room on the log book to write. Good find TFTC
My first geocache! Cool spot and awesome little container. Never seen anything like it! Thank you for the fun!
Found by Mary and David at 15:45. Luckily, too cold for any muggles, so nobody about. Chilled to the bone. Lovely to read about Wills. Our thanks to billnmyrle.
Found It!
No one else in this park tonight which made for a quick and easy find!

**This Cache:**
This cache was a lot easier to find than the other one in the series! Definitely a 1/1 rating and a good find at a thankfully empty park! We were a little bit perplexed by this playground however. Cows? Cows in trees? And a few other odd things! Kinda cool!
Thanks
*Signed the log as **AB!** for "Adventure Boys! which for this cache consisted of Loci612, DARKSIDEDAN, injuryman and sebass19*

**Today:**
Today was a fairly chill day! We were all pretty shattered, myself especially from several days of hiking, walking and long days of fast paced caching! Everyone was still keen to get out there though, so we put 2 people in each car and just casually agreed who was following who and finding random caches here and there. I enjoyed following behind DSD as it meant I could switch off my brain a little bit and just park behind him each time, jump out for another cache, and keep going! Didn't have to think about anything too much and just enjoy the serenity of exploring!
We started the day at 7am but finished by 4:30pm! By far the earliest day all week, and then just relaxed in the accomodation, had a chat and ate some food! We also managed to attend the Farewell event near the end of the day before making sure we had cleaned up any final local caches and heading to the accomodation as we were leaving the next morning!
Thanks to all the CO's

Found and signed dsd or darksidedan or AB or Adventure Boys to save space in the logbook. Thanks for the cache and the Adventure.
We arrived to find a family of muggles leaving which was great, however we had to exude extreme, EXTREME patience as the family lapped the park multiple times before actually going to their house that was almost right across from the picnic shelter. Choosing times to search when they weren't looking in our direction, we eventually found the wee hide. TFTC billnmyrle
This was a late afternoon find in this park. We actually attempted a search here about an hour earlier but some muggles were kicking a soccer ball nearby and we soon left. Back again and they’re still at it - oh well, we will try to be stealthy. Fortunately we managed to find the cache without attracting attention and were able to sign the log. Thanks to billnmyrle for the cache.

Finally another opportunity to get out with xambo4u chasing up those around Whittlesea we missed on our last excursion. As we headed homeward detoured and made a couple of quick finds. Made a quick find. TFTC
Out and about with 80 degrees and on our way back for doing some caches at Whittlesea. Glad it was not at lunch time as we may not have been able to get to this one. Nice easy find. We managed to get out names on the log book but with needs a new one now. Great play space for the kids. Thanks for the cache billnmyrle

It was great to turn a frown into a smile, my knees are not what they used to be but all's well that ends well. Thanks billnmyrle for your efforts in placing this cache.

Out with BoabTree, we were caching in and around the Hawkstowe Park area.
What a wonderful playground, most unusual. We searched a few places before finding the well hidden, elusive cache. Thanks billnmyrle.

Will certainly has a lovely walk, this path is beautiful. Out caching with Echidna44, we had to do a bit of searching for this cache, as we did not see it immediately. A simple but effective hide here.
Took awhile to sit and have a snack but still no find this time, I will be back. Thanks billnmyrle at least getting me out here.

After attending the Doreen CITO & CUAD Event, we had the opportunity to learn some of the intriguing history of Doreen as we sought out this little cluster of caches.
Thanks billnmyrle for placing caches in interesting places on the gameboard.

What a fantastic playground, just love the crooked house which reminded me of "There was a crooked man, who walked a crooked mile, he found a crooked sixpence upon a crooked stile. He bought a crooked cat, that caught a crooked mouse and they all lived together in a little crooked house".
Thanks for bringing me here

TFTC, the cache was easy to find as the park was very wet and no muggles around!
Took a seat in the right spot and luckily not a soul in sight. Heading to home base in the mountains and did a wee detour to pick up this clutch of caches partly on account of mission to move that CENTROID further east and south. TFTC and the fun! Nice find
Found it ️
and the last one for the day.

A pleasant way to spend a warm afternoon, chasing down a series of geocaches.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks for placing this geocache here for us to find today for without the enjoyment of having someone hide a geocache we would not have the fun and enjoyment of finding a geocache.
