We replaced this cache from the resources in the dusty pay hero as the cache had gone missing.Cleaning up Victoria with gridge98. We are on a mission this week. Completing twenty finds in Mexican local government areas is the challenge. Another find with the correct criteria. It is in Victoria and we have not accumalated twenty finds in this local government area.Today was the day to find this cache. Today is Tew's day the fifteenth day of the octavus month of the Roman calendar in the wonderful year of twenty twenty four. We found your cache container and added some inky stuff to the paper sheet or note pad you have supplied for a log book or scroll. The cache container and log book or scroll were in good condition. It was a bit windy today. It was so windy today.With the log signed and the cache replaced it was time to leave. Onwards to the next cache. Woot, that is not to far.I would like to show my respect and acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Land, and their continuing connection to it. I wish to pay my respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures; and to Elders past, present and emerging.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts. So many caches to find. So many caches to log. We find them, sign them and replace them.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach.

This cache was stopped at today, the cache had gone so replaced to keep it alive and going Travelling around Victoria with Freddo for a week finding caches as we go. With two challenges on our radar we were in full force. All logs signed with our names or F+g98 for the smaller caches. Thanks for the cache

Checked the obvious spots - so either very well hidden, Ive lost my geosense, or worse - its been muggled. Thanks anyway!

Hey you're right this isn't a very busy car park at all. A quick find whilst I walked around the block here. Thanks again Sharkiefan

We found it! Forgot my pen, but we got it!

loads of cars parked when I was haw here and an influx of muggles after a train pulled in TFTC

Quick little find with convenient parking!

I learn something new every day, now I know where to park my car next time I need to catch a train to the city. Im a new local around here and finding a park has always been a PITA. TFTC

Visiting my old home town to have brunch with my daughter. At GZ it was a very quick and easy find. TFTC sharkiefan

Accurate coordinates made this a quick find , all's good at gz . Thanks sharkiefan

That was pretty easy start to our caching for the day.

Autumnal Victorian Roadtrip.Day Five: Melbourne to Great WesternWeather: still perfect! Actually, the car park has more cars than the one on Cherry Street, so maybe all the free publicity from having a cache has turned the tables! All is well with the cache. Thanks for this hide Sharkiefan.

We missed this cache on our first loop as a group of office workers were all having a great catch-up in the shade right near GZ. Coming back a little later we could make the find unhindered. TFTC.

After a short walk from the previous cache the title is absolutely correct. No one at all in this area of the car park, so a nice quick find.We headed off down the Great Ocean Road for a few days for a belated wedding anniversary celebration. The weather was kind and the scenery along the road spectacular.We based ourselves in Lorne and then tripped around checking out the local places. While we had visited the area some time ago it was great to spend more time exploring the area, and of course the caching.Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache sharkiefan.**SKI Pair****

Fairly easy one to find

Easy find .

Found it with @water_big_beach

Cool spot. Pretty easy find.

Super quick find. Yes what a weird spot to have a carpark. Thanks for the cache.

Found on a midweek caching morning in Werribee before it got too hot. TFTC

Nice and easy TFTC

Out and about with My good caching mate Omegaman1971, there are always plenty of laughs while we are turning caches into smiles.This is one of the caches found today.Thanks sharkiefan for the cache.

Out on Australia day, caching between two events at either end of the day. Certainly today, the carpark was all but empty - just two cars down the far end. Found the cache nice and quickly.My thanks to sharkiefan for the cache.

Only hoon I saw this afternoon was a DH on a motorised bike with no helmet zooming around at 60+km Grr...I think I spotted him about 5 times while caching in this area. Anyhow this cache was swiftly located and signed.

Nice, easy find. All in good condition. TFTC

Quick find here. Fence nearby is a bit pointless as there is a tree over it . TFTC

Out on a ride

Well although it was empty today, this car park is starting to be filled like the others in Werribee Monday to Friday. TFTC

Good find

Well its sharkiefan week here in the BFMC household Im working on qualifying for old challenge caches I signed years ago placed by. Sharkiefan. To do so I found some handbags yeaterday placed by sharkiefan. And im here tonight cleaning out a few caches placed by. Sharkiefan!A nice quick blockie, all caches found easily and in good order. Thanks for the hides!

A little walk around the area and managed a few quick finds. No issues here, a very quick find and all was good. One car in the car park and it did look a little lonely. Thanks again sharkiefan...

Find number 12694 at 2:10:40pm on Monday the 20 November 2023Heading over to Werribee to meet up with gmj3191 to do some geocaches around the area. Looking forward to doing some short walks to stretch the legs and grab some smilies along the way.This was a quick find this morning whilst being surrounded by at least a few cars...**Thanks for placing this cache sharkiefan**---If you are looking for some new caches to find, explore the nominees for the 2022 Victorian Cache of the Year Awards.The Nominations Geocaching List is available [here](https://coord.info/BMC8QYR)!Voting is now closed for the 2022 Victorian Cache of the Year Awards and the awards event will be posted soon

Find # 8,450 for me on 20 Nov 2023 at 2:11 pm. Caching around the You Yangs - Werribee area with BernieH. Yep, pretty empty. Thanks sharkiefan, for giving back to the game. *Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*

I found this cache today on my Mega Geocaching Walk #9 - A 28,000 step walk around Werribee. If diseases were spread by cars in car parks, I wouldn't have caught anything here today, even being a weekday. Makes for an easier search and find. Thanks from D B-A

There were people in the car park today. Nice quick find. Signed after Jarwillo again. Thanks!

Kept on walking and found myself here. I can see why this is the least used car park as it is so out of the way.Thanks sharkiefan

A nice quick find and as advertised nobody making use of the carpark. Thanks for the cache.

Car park sure was empty TFTC

I must be becoming a sharkiefanfan!
Thanks heaps for the cache!

*Found on the 20 Aug 2023 @ 1:45 pm.*
*Cache find # 14990.*

Today I headed out to find a few TDOC23 caches, I was intending on starting in Werribee and working my way back to Williamstown, but I ended up staying in Werribee as there were a fair few caches to find around the area that I had not found.
I parked the car and headed off on a stroll around the area, stopping by the caches that I had not found, this being one of them, the cache was found and the log was signed.
There were a few cars using this park.

**Thanks to sharkiefan for keeping the game going by placing this cache.**

Nice and easy find. Came in the early morning so it was nice and quiet.

Been living in this area for almost 20yrs and didn't even know this carpark existed . My gf was very excited to find it on her own as this is just her second find. She's loving it

Nope, not busy today either... TFTC

I had to work today then at lunch time one of the jobs was canned so a decision was made to head West to see what I could find.
So while attending the Cachemas lunch the other week i was sitting next to a CO who told me I had to do their new caches at Werribee and I also ran into a couple of other CO’s a while ago who said I should do theirs as well.
So here I am heading to Laverton then making my way to Werribee on a chilly but fine Melbourne afternoon.
After visiting a few parks and a creek it was time to hit Werribee .
After finding the 3 challenge caches I still had a bit of time up my sleeve so I decided on a few trads before heading home.
Following the bike path around and stoped to read about the dairies that were located around here first.
There was at least 2 cars parked along here this afternoon so at least it is being used.
Some Goose Oh that would be me dropped his pen here and had to come back for it after realising it at the next cache.

Thanks sharkiefan TFTC

TFTC

Well the least used carpark had some roadside workers enjoying a chat right in front of gz, doh! We went and done the nearby cache then came back to find the coast was clear.
Thanks sharkiefan for the placement.

Not sure about the title to this cache. There were cars parked all the way up to GZ today.
Luckily no muggles though.
Thanks, Robmc.

While waiting for my son to be ready to be picked from hospital decided to do some geocaching to fill in time well didn't have a successful day with 3dnf and two smiles
Thanks for putting the cach out
All is good either with the cach

17:11
Here I am doing another lap around here, because I was on a mission as I stalked by the first time.

It doesn't take long for induced demand to kick in... the car park is full all the way to the end. Glad I walked.

Thanks, sharkiefan.

I had come to the west side today in order to celebrate and find the first cachemas cache, [ThePacman's](https://www.geocaching.com/p/?guid=613f235b-0d1d-4bd3-ba3e-1dbcc5779bb8&wid=b71c409a-98af-474f-9072-32432cfba971&ds=2) [TDOC23: "Nature Walk" Wherigo (GCA20BA)](https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GCA20BA_tdoc23-nature-walk-wherigo).

After completing that Wherigo I remembered that the [CO](https://www.geocaching.com/p/?guid=34aa4c48-9615-4751-ae99-44e63866e71c&wid=183df73d-9626-4af1-8d54-7d078e9b9079&ds=2) had somewhat recently published [The Wyndham Shire Challenge (GCA9GZB)](https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GCA9GZB).

Now challenge caches are definitely my favourite type of cache, and with this new one being published and with me not being qualified for it. I figured I would spend the rest of my time in the west trying to find caches in the [Wyndham Shire LGA](https://www.wyndham.vic.gov.au/) in order to work on qualifying for it.

So when I saw a nice grouping of caches here I figured I would stop and try to find a few. This one was my first one, as I figured based on the cache's name I would be able to easily find a place to park, which I did .

I was almost able to park right in front of GZ. It was then a nice quick search before the cache was in hand and the logbook signed. I found [Brad's Dodge Charger Trackable (TB566D9)](https://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?guid=86746c93-3e0f-418c-a306-0388b1e4c6a1) inside the cache and decided to pick it up to move it along it's journey.

A big thanks goes to [sharkiefan](https://www.geocaching.com/p/?guid=34aa4c48-9615-4751-ae99-44e63866e71c&wid=183df73d-9626-4af1-8d54-7d078e9b9079&ds=2) for the fun tonight. TFTC.

**Cache Maintenance Status**

The cache container was in good shape and the logbook was clean and dry with plenty of room for future cache finders to sign.

2/6 finds for today! found in less than a minute
Thought it would be fitting to park this car trackable here! Hopefully a travelling cacher moves it on to somewhere more exciting!

Found with Moonb1
Thanks for the cache sharkiefan .

Logged with [GCDroid](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gcdroid).

Always a good day when out caching and finding them.nice easy one to find.
Thanks for the cache sharkiefan

Not so quiet today. Me , another car and 3 youths on 2 trail bikes that decided to race around this carpark, then park… you guessed it… right at GZ. Went to a wander to grab another cache close by, by the time of returned they’d left, so the cache was quickly found and signed before they returned Thanks sharkiefan for placing this cache and contributing to this great game. Happy trails, Deanside

Tftc, cache in good condition. There's actually a car other than mine in the carpark

This cache was very well concealed with natural camo.
Enjoying it Mother’s Day outing doing outdoors stuff, as we are both Motherless!

Easy lucky find. FYI I think BOT refers to a part or place of a tree: David

I was the only car here today so the area was living up to its reputation.
2 trees, one held the hide snug and safe.
Thanks sharkiefan

I couldn't find it anywhere and I have no idea what bot means. Probably my fault lol

Agreed, a weird place for a car park. And the poor neighbours, if they have to listen to Hooms all the time. But a great place for a cache

Out hunting a few caches on my morning walk before work. This carpark certainly lived up to its name today: not a car in sight.
A nicely concealed container in good condition.
TFTC sharkiefan

Popped over for a quick find here after my Christmas work function at The Views. You are quite right - a very unused car park here.

Thanks for bringing me here by placing this cache, sharkiefan

scramping & I made our way to Werribee on our way to The Whittlesea Event. We joined Snap Happy for dinner then went to grab some caches in the area.
Yep this carpark is still not used very much even in the dark of night.
The cache was found at 11:58pm by torchlight.
TFTC sharkiefan

Found with hevwalker on our way towards the Whittlesea Mega on the weekend with a stopover in Werribee tonight. The weather is holding at the moment, we have seen the effects that the heavy rains have had on the roads, not good, holes or even pieces of road missing. Stopping on the side of the road was always questionable with all the water around lately. Drive safe everyone. After a lovely meal with Snap Happy we headed out to grabs some caches together until the wee hours of the morning, what great fun. TFTC

On the hunting trail again with SeasonedBird (aka Mrs Geo, Salty Chook, the Old Boiler, Old Chook, Dirty Bird, Angry Bird & occasionally even Love Bird). It’s a great day for caching.

For anyone making Geo plans, do yourself a favour and visit Australia’s only current Geotour at Ballarat while it lasts: https://www.geocaching.com/play/geotours/ballarat-victoria

And for anyone that can travel to Longreach, Queensland, late September 2023, Google “QOGM” which is the Queensland Outback Geocaching Muster. You’ll have at least 8 or 9 days of pure geocaching fun with around 200 like minded people attending a mix of events and access to over 200 geocaches placed by the QOGM team. It’s not a Mega, it’s better.

I didn't read the name of the cache and walked down from my previous one... and left the pen in the car. UGH!!! Still, easy find, thank you for the hint TFTC

This was a quick and easy find in this under-utilised carpark. It was nice and quiet here today, perfect for sniffing out caches.

Very well hidden

great hide !

After a school holidays catch up with a friend I thought I’d grab a couple of quick caches.
Nice quick find.
TFTC

Hint really helps. Hidden well

**Found on Internation Geocaching Day**

The thing I love about caching is the interesting stories, the extra interest and attention you take when traveling, the sight-seeing, the history, the interests of the individual CO’s, *the fantastic photo opportunities* and sometimes finding places that even some locals don’t know about. I, like most cachers, look for more that a mint tin or a container under a bush. I appreciate the time that most CO’s take to construct a cache and write up a comprehensive listing and to create an interesting cache. **I love traveling this big land of ours.** I love taking the roads less traveled. I love the diversity of the land, the different scenes in the different seasons, the fresh air, the open plains, the lofty vistas and the magnificent waters. I even enjoy the longer scenic walks although I'm not as young and as fit as I used to be. **This in not one of them**
I love the different coffee shops I find. I enjoy the times I cache with others but I usually cache on my own.

Had the carpark to myself today and managed a quick find after a trip to the earby Bunnings.
Thank you sharkiefan for highlighting this area and for adding this cache to my real-life treasure hunt. Appreciate your efforts. Cache in good condition

Find # 11104

After a long day hitting the opp shops it was time for Dinner. But not before going for a short walk around the quiet side of town for some finds.

Not a car in sight. Just the train passing by and a sleeping bag close to GZ. I made a quick grab n sign n headed off. Unsure if anyone was around that belonged to the Sleeping bag.

A nice quick find. Thanks for pointing out the most under utilised car park.

Geocaching has had to take a back seat for HerIndoorsOutdoors and me for the last couple of years, but today we couldn't pass up the warmest winter day in Melbourne this year for a quick hunt. Off to Werribee for us to see if we could start cleaning up some of the new caches that have been set up. Limited time, so only aimed for three today.

This was #1, with very few people around it made for a very quick hunt and the cache was spotted very quickly. After signing the log, we concealed it a little better than it was when we found it, but shouldn't be a challenge for the average hunter.

The cache is in good condition.

TNLNSL. TFTC Sharkiefan.

With an extra day in the weekend to celebrate the Queens Birthday I joined up with Donutholes to visit a few Adventure Labs and caches around Werribee:
I felt I was doing something wrong being the only vehicle in the car park.
Log signed and replaced as Found.

Cache in Good condition

Public holiday today so it would be silly not to use my time wisely and go for a cache!! AusFox and I decided we would work our way through a couple of AdventureLabs and any other caches that are in the area.

The name of this cache is very fitting with not a car insight. Do people actually know this place exists ??

Quick find for this cache! Signed and had to wait for a local cyclist to pass before hiding again. Thanks for the cache

Found by The Empire + H
Well, we were the ONLY car in here, but it was a Sunday afternoon on a long weekend... surely there are cars here during the working week, even though it is a fair walk to the closest train station! A quick find to kick off the day's caching. Thanks for the cache sharkiefan!

One windy, Wednesday in Werribee! A chance to search for caches which have been beckoning for ages and others fresh on the scene. A tour of the quirky spots around Werribee, brought back a few memories of rail crossings and older buildings. Luckily the nearby residents were concentrating on their fence building.

Thank you sharkiefan, for adding interesting caches to the geo-gameboard.

Seems like a particularly unused cardpark, especially on a cold Sunday afternoon. No-one here but us geocachers.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks for hiding this geocache around the area so that everyone can enjoy geocaching and finding the caches that are put out.

Suscoe headed to Melbourne today.
It was a pleasant late Autumn day with early sun and later on some clouds and a few spits of rain that hit the windscreen.
We enjoyed our day catching up with family and had the chance to pick up a few caches in between.

Thanks to Sharkiefan for this hide.
There were three cars here today so we agree with the cache name.
All good at GZ.

Found by Mary and David at 13:15. There must be a reason for this. Presumably because it is new and now well-known yet. Maybe it is for the yuppies to park and ride their e-scooters to the station. You have certainly expanded the number of caches in Werribee. A FP Our thanks to sharkiefan.

Had to go into werribee and spotted an unfound cache. Could it really be true? No sad already found. But this car park is a strange find I had no idea it existed amd agree - strange place for one but I guess still
Close enough to the station if you need. Thanks for placing these new hides can’t wait to explore some more. TFTC

###FTF###

So the second bit of luck this morning.

When this park had finished thought it would be a good spot for a hide.

To lazy to organise.

But now we have a few.

No one at GZ this morning.

At first I was looking in the wrong spot.

Then it was a quick find with a blank log!
