We are really sad to see that this series has been almost decimated by a burn off that looks to have got bigger than it should have judging by the state of some of the trees.A huge amount of effort clearly went into this series. We were glad to be able to find a few of them including this one. We did stop at all the disabled hides but did not locate any of those. We wont mark them as dnf as the CO is well aware of there demise.TFTC
It was with great relief I found this cache intact. The series has been wrecked by fire and DNFs.Thanks Budgietas, good that they aren't all missing or melted.
Thanks for this series - my son loved it. However we had no idea what to do with the numbers we were supposed to be collecting? Gather they are co-ordinates but couldn't figure out how to use them!?
Mr & Mrs H used to play Monopoly a lot! But it got a bit too competitive and we haven't played it in years! Maybe we should give it a go again some day!? TFTC!Cheers,The Hancock Clan
Hello Budgietas thank you for the cacheAnother trip to find one of your caches.An easy find.Found on Friday, 29 September 2023 at 1035**TFTC**
After doing this one, we had all the details for the final cache but didn't have the puzzle, so next time in the area to finish seriesTFTC
So many good views of the island and castle only interupted by a salmon farm. Thanks for another one Budgietas
Nice boot . And this must be the perfect afternoon to do this series! So glad you took us here!
Got all the co-ordinates for the final cache but Mum didn't want to drive her cat down - so will complete the final cache with Scoot and the AWD.
TFTC beautiful drive

Enjoyed this series.
We found a lovely spot to stop and had a great picnic.
Good excuse to travel along this dirt road

Bit wild and woolly in the bay today. Yet another great cache in this series. The boot was always the token I would choose when playing Monopoly as a kid, so I’ll give this one a favourite point for that reason, among many. The road has been very quiet every time I have visited (in all the days I have come I have only had one car pass) and today was no exception. Another quick find and double stamping as I got the first date wrong. Thanks once again Budgietas. I’ve enjoyed this series on many different levels and, now I’ve got all the dollars, I’m looking forward to working out the puzzle and getting the final cache.
After 63ROOS,s 60th Birthday Events..... She take me drive to around Port Arthur find few caches for 3 hours before go home to rest... We are great time and good Laugh... Tks
Ooops i didn't read the cache descriptions carefully enough and didn't realize there was a final where I needed to collect numbers. Will revisit on my return journey tomorrow if time permits..
Last day in Hobart today after heading here for the weekend. Now off to some warmer weather of Darwin.

We decided that we better get around to finding some caches before the end of the month and we haven’t been down this way for awhile so there seems to be plenty of caches for us to pick up!
Fantastic again with everything associated with the series.

Zozetta and I headed down to Dunalley this morning with the aim of finding a few caches. A great day out with good a total of 21 finds and some new locations discovered. We started with a solved puzzle before moving onto the new series on Blackman Bay road then heading back towards town, via the scenic lookout, then detoured to Forcett on the way home to quickly grab a multi.
This was an excellent series with well themed containers and good views as well. We enjoyed collecting the numbers for the final and then working it out too. Each container and log book was dry and well themed, it’s a good thing that the caches are named after monopoly pieces not editions as there are more than 3,500 of those! Dropped a TB.
Thanks for a great series Budgietas!

We decided to tackle a few caches that have been published since our last visit and this was one of them.
Cache and contents were in good condition.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Headed to the Peninsula for the day with the two GeoGSP's to make the most of the public holiday.
A nice drive with some different views of the Dunalley area. Another quick find of a well-themed container. The final piece of information now collected.

Hi Budge
The day started early with me discovering a new AdLab Series and its bonus cache
Got dressed and headed for the nearest AdLab and then on to complete the series
Went home and had breakfast and completed my ablutions before heading off to look for the Bonus.
It was found and Sainted at 1200 hours
Lunch was had at the Dunalley Fish Shop near the bridge
Once our hunger was sated, this series was next on the agenda
The whole series was brilliant
The views were terrific
Each cache was well constructed but the boat has come off its moorings (and needs some maintenance)
This cache was Sainted at 1442 hours
Totally enjoyed the whole experience Will give the bonus a favourite point for the series
Thanks and cheers

I remember the boot always falling over anytime the board was bumped, what a pain! We had to backtrack to this one as we we talking about other stuff, looking at the oyster beds and not focused at all at the task in hand.
We found it, boots and all.
Thanks Budgietas

I was very pleased and impressed with the great detail that had gone into this series of cache with all the little touches making a difference, the whole series gets fav points as this is what good caches are.
With today's weather we came out this way to get this new series of caches that Budgies put out in the hope of getting them found before we got too wet, as it was we just about got away with it, the bad rain only arrived as we were driving to get lunch and drive home, so a bit of a win, I also pulled in a couple of puzzles I had overlooked before.
Thanks for the cache.

I only just notice this new series as i looked abroad on my map and decided i'd make a day of it and go grab them and a couple of others aswell.
It's been a while since i was down here last so i was looking forward to it.
Parked up off the road and made my way over to GZ. A quick find of a cache that made me smile... again. I'm loving this series already, the work gone into these caches and log books is awesome
The key number was noted for the Final Mystery Cache and the log was signed at 11:34 on TGIF 20 January 2023, then a friendly couple of Cachers parked up next to me and said G'day.
Nice to meet you again, 2y'stassies. We worked out the final together for the Mystery Cache and were off to it

We came to the Tasman Peninsula today to look for some caches to meet some challenges we have embarked on and to find other caches that have been placed in the area since we last visited. Our first group was the Monopoly series.
We were impressed with the thought and care that had gone into the design of the series, to the presentation of each cache and to the selection of the hides. Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find in each instance and the cache and contents were in good condition. We were certainly going to give a favourite for the final but on reflection that seemed inadequate and we decided to give a favourite for each cache in the series.
We had the pleasure of catching up with bluewrentit at this cache. We first met in South Australia and once since his move to Tassie but we exchange emails regularly. So it was good to catch up with him in the field,
Thanks Budgietas for an excellent series.

We decided to head to Dunalley to find a few newly published caches that have appeared since our last visit to the area and this was one of them. A great series of caches. We enjoyed the nicely created and themed caches. Deserves a favourite. TFTC
7th FTF today . Accurate coordinates made this series of caches quick finds, all's good at each location . This is the first time I've played monopoly on my own , must be the reason I won ! I was expecting other players to turn up . A favorite point for the series Thanks Budgietas
