Greetings from Canberra! My last cache on my trip to Perth. After completing the AL component, I went to the WBBL match at the WACA and found the bonus on the way home. Lovely GZ, quick find in the dark. TFTC and for a great AL, too!
In Perth for the test match. Gardens are nearby accommodation and this bonus was in the direction of a morning walk. Thanks for the AL and placing this bonus Paskersfind #3051
After a pleasant stroll around the gardens, it was a quick scooter ride to GZ (time was short and I didnt want to get too hot, I had a conference to get to!)Thanks for the cache Paskersfind
Solved few days ago. It was not as easy as for "locals". Peter Pan is not part of my childhood. But Mr. Google knows a lot 
Today I made it for the Bonus. The magnet is strongest one, so check on the ground as well...
Today I made it for the Bonus. The magnet is strongest one, so check on the ground as well...We worked this one out a couple of weeks ago and since it's late at night on a Sunday we could park within 50m of the cache and get away with it. Cache was quickly found and logged.
Out with Chwiliwr for the day.Quick find here. Log signed and replaced.Thanks for the Lab and cache.
Out caching the City with Everlasting on a beautiful spring Sunday.We loved the AdLab and made a quick find here.Thanks Paskersfind.
Enjoyed adventure labs Accompanied with ILT. we find it and sign the log as EV and ILT.Thanks for the cache and hunt FP from me
TFTC At first, I was looking for what I thought it would be....much better to just look for a cache!
Did the lab earlier this week but ran out of time to find the bonus. After a quick search today, came up with the goods and a handful of grease haha. Luckily had the baby with me which meant wet wipes. Was able to clean myself up, sign the log and put back where it belongs. Tftc!
A few muggles were out for their walks between showers, but an otherwise easy find. Nice view too. TFTC.
A nice walk around doing the lab today, then off to GZ where the cache was found and is all goodIn Perth for work today I headed over to Optus stadium for a walk around and to find a few caches before walking back to the city. 15 finds for the day dodging the rain as it fell. Thanks for the cache
First of a couple while on a pre-breaky walk around the area today having completed the preliminaries a couple of afternoons. Once at GZ, it was a nice quick find at 08:00 and I was on my way. TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks Paskersfind.
Grabbed this after completing the Ad Lab, log is saturated . I like the bonus caches for ADLabs . ThanksPaskersfind for Queens Gardens Adlab Bonus Cache#6171
Enjoyed the early morning walk around Queens Garden to do the AdLab. Then off to find the bonus cache. Thanks for the hide.
Lovely walk around the gardens and a quick find at the end. Thanks for the lab and cache!
Nice quick find with a good hint! Thoroughly enjoyed our wander around Queens Gardens completing a nice easy AdLabSo our day was pretty planned out, we had a mission in mind and knew we would clock up a few kms today! We jumped off the train at Elizabeth Quay and caught a CAT straight up to yesterdays DNF to rectify and after a success there then headed straight to the Optus Stadium to clean up the area around here!We had an awesome wander around Optus Stadium then a nice meader back to Perth collecting smilies! Was a great day out, we ended up doing nearly 20kms today as we had to do several laps around Optus Stadium in our crazy quest but thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you Paskersfind for placing Queens Gardens Adlab Bonus Cache for us and others to find and enjoy!
Find 18 of 19 plus 8 Ad Lab locations, on a lovely 24km bike ride from Burswood through Lathlain, Vic Park and Kensington for lunch at one of our favourite hipster cafs then back over the Causeway and Matagarup bridges, with a cheeky pint at the Camfield to finish. Today's entertainment was mostly provided by DCell with every cache unique and unexpected, not to mention the searching which was consistently discombobulating, often resulting in finds that were serendipitous.A really enjoyable AdLab and the finale on our route, which was welcome. A quick find with the generous hint.TFTC Paskersfind!
I wandered around the gardens on Sunday and grabbed the labs. Up to Exmouth for a few days work, I was back in the big smoke today before my flight back to Brissy tomorrow. After checking into my digs nearby, I headed over to GZ where I quickly located the container. 
Out with the log, in with my name, I returned the container as found and hit the road for something to eat.Cheers Paskersfind.

A nice quick find here. Cheers and TFTC.Gday there Paskersfind, we were in this area today and found your cache Queens Gardens Adlab Bonus Cache GCAND02. Our name was added to the log book at 7:43AM on 14 April 2024. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!We took up Geocaching on 3 March 2013 and this cache brings our total find count to - 14633.
Really enjoyed the walk and took a minute to get the green light and corrected coordinates for the bonus.Managed to get some parking not too far away and with the area around GZ being deserted was able to get hands on the container easily.Thanks go to Paskersfind for placing and maintaining the Mystery cache Queens Gardens Adlab Bonus Cache for me and others to find.I added my name to the log at 19:47 on 9/4/2024.This is find number 8841 for me.
Ive got to admit I know nothing of what was going on to sort the final coordinates. Truth be told, K.B. didnt really seem to know herself at one stage. I sat and enjoyed watching the people on the walking tour while Millie went wild. Thanks for the quick find at GZ.
Three generations of our family exploring East Perth. Was a stretch to keep the just turned 3 year old entertained. Thanks for the hide.
Caching with MDV can be a massive chore. Throw in a three year old and bribery was required. Thanks for a quick find at the final once we made the trek.
Oops. Late log.Completed the lab and after a bit of internet work I had the numbers. Headed to GZ and made a quick find.TFTC and lab.
Out for a little geocaching drive on Easter Monday and after grabbing a bunch of caches, I came over to Queens Gardens to complete the Adlab. Such a lovely location, although I don't think I have ever seen the ponds so choked with plants. Had a nice wander round uncovering the necessary characters for this bonus. Sat down to crunch the numbers but the way character 4 is presented is misleading as it implies a one name answer... after fighting the checker a few times I realised I needed to use his full name not his nickname... and finally got the tick of approval. Cache was a nice quick find once I had relocated to GZ. TFTC
Nice and quiet in the area on Good Friday so managed easy parking and undisturbed searching.TFTC Paskersfind this is find #16916 for us.
**FTF** jointThis was a great adventure lab and as I said as we were walking the lab how has no one put a lab here before - so much to see and do and a beautiful piece of perth parklands. The Peter Pan statue is a must. Thanks PF - your hides are always a good time.
Joint *FTF* here this afternoon. A great little walk around here today and a first to complete an Adlab series, great addition to the Perth area thanks for placing.
