Nice little walk in an area I have never been before. I walked across the bridge from the eastern side to get here and that was also a new experience for me. Thanks.
Nice little park, the kids were disappointed as the weather was so bad they didn't get to play. Found it after a bit of searching.

Found this one after a little confusion (someone mentioned a bench or a seat???) but eventually common sense came about and a quick search turned up the goods! TFTC!
an easy find with out a GPS. Just had to wait for the muggles and gardeners to disperse.
Surprising how easy this was, no muggles in sight, I think largly to do with the rain. SL Thanks rayozzy
The kids had a chance to exercise on the playgound till the muggles left the area, then it wasn't too hard
My fourth of five for the day (and fourth ever)
No problem finding it, walked straight to it and found it in seconds
No redbacks in sight today
Thanks rayozzy[:X]

This cache certainly lives up to its name! Hundreds of them! A nice easy find. Thanks.
This cache is decidedly dodgy. Couldn’t believe it when I was virtually looking in peoples back windows as I searched for GZ. I don’t think there is any need for it to be where it is given the nature of the nearby bushland. The log was simply loose bits of paper, some of which blew away as I was logging it. Managed to retrieve them and then just got the hell out of there.
Its not that we didn't find it, we just couldn't go looking for it because being a beautiful winters day, a muggle was up cleaning his gutters!! Typical...still its a nice park that we haven't explored before so we'll be back!!
An easy find as the co-ordinates were spot on.
Thanks to Rayozzy for the cache.

Found by Haggis at 1346.
The log is getting a little full, but I found a space to write on =)
Lots fo spider webs but none at home today.

Eighteenth of twenty-one finds for my first afternoon/evening in Perth. I'm not a big fan of spiders, in fact I hate them. So, before diving my hand into unknown places, I had a good look first. I saw no redbacks, or any other spiders, thankfully. However, I did find the cache at 2130. I grabbed the rather unusual "Micro Bug" TB. I had to send a message to BilbraBoys to find out how to log it (this wouldn't have been necessary, if only I had looked more closely [|)]). Thanks to rayozzy for the cache.
Didnt believe the gpsr was pointed in the right direction...but took the view it must be right...and found pretty quickly.
Re-acquainted myself with my micro TB.
Left an original Bibra Boys calling card.
Cache is quite full and blank paper becoming scarce...

This was on the GPS so we went and had a look. We found the container ok. We put our name on the back of some one elses log. No spare bits of paper.
From my height it was easy to see. The cobwebs meant I wasn;t going to get it though.
My coordinates ted me to the other side of the fence in the car parking area.
I didn't see it.

Seen lots of webs while I was looking for this one. Fortunately I didn't see any redbacks.
Oops, none too clever am I. Found this with Treasure Trover on a caching Saturday morning, while the rest of the families were occupied, as part of a team effort (that whole 'two heads are better than one' thing - except sometimes we just get twice as confused) way back on the 11th but I did forget to log it did I. (It's now the 21st).
At 1pm found the micro – no problem but didn’t see any Redbacks spider phew! BUT I have plenty see Bottlebrush it shows me full of colour – RED instead of redbacks. Signed log. Thanks to Rayozzy for the cache.
Found it. Thanks. Should have brought 3rd generation to this one. She would have liked the playground.
Found it. No spiders, but a very wary me getting to it. I think I may have found someone's pencil too - its fluro yellow.
Stumbled around in the dark for a while but didn't find it. Will drop by again and have a look in daylight if I have time.
nice and easy cache to find had to wait untill people got out of the play area

Found after second visit. The first time I didn't have GPS receiver with me. No red backs in sight. Despite school holidays there were no muggle children in the park either.

An easy find at 6:26 PM, thanks Rayozzy. The rest of the visit was more of an adventure. Decided since I was here, to explore the area more and went off for a walk along the river to Ferndale Flats. Pity about the fire damage. Anyway got back to the car to find I had no keys! Back pocket on pack was partially open. Put two and two together to get five. Thought I had dropped keys, so off I went to search the likely drop spots. Eventually decided to go back and check the car and there they where lying on the backseat. Sigh of relief, phone call to the RAC, lots of mozzie bites whilst waiting and home I went. So an easy cache, an interesting walk and a heart attack. Not a bad venture!
Found this one at 1:42am. Interesting place. Just a warning for those who go after us- there is a BIG ole redback lurking around near the cache location- so just beware that its there. Easy find.

An easy first cache for the day although not quite so easy to not look suspicious as we returned to the car for a pen.
This would have to have been one of our easier finds as there are only so many places that a magnetic key holder will reside. Thanks for the chase

A quick dash to cache from the turning head. Found without too much difficulty - no redbacks in the area

IN: Some Ink
OUT: Not Much
RECYCLED: Some air in the box

This turned out to be the last cache for the night. All our batteries had gone / were almost flat.

New to the game!
This was my first GPS hunt (1 of 3 planned for the day).
Sucked in by the obvious landmark but persevered and struck gold.
Thanks for my gentle GPS introduction.
Always pleasing to get a positive result when starting something new.

Quick grab. Was expecting a different container type, so I didn't see it at first...
Found this one after an extensive search of the surrounding area and finding 0 spiders.
Thanx for the hunt rayozzy.

I was hoping to drop off a TB in this cache before realising that it was a micro. Bugger. Found easily (and there were no spiders either. Thanks to Rayozzy for the cache
Umm we searched for a while, and looking at these logs it appears to be easy, maybe I will check my coordinates again...
checked my coordinates, were right, thought the burnt ot tree was where it might be? Were we close???
Found without any problems exactly where I expected (once I arrived in the area). Forgot to look for spiders before I stuck my hand in though

We found it. These types of caches alaways make you feel odd when you do them. You feel like you are getting too close to peoples houses and it would be hell to explain just what you are up to if the police wandered past while you were hunting around. Luckily its not hard to find this one so its a quick in and out and back to the car to make a quick retreat from the area.
On way home passing by and thought why not stopping for this one so I did. There are 2 choices to find either side but there is only one place as per described in the note. I was embarrassed being watched by the cache owner while I was searching it – like Oznaturist did. Thanks for the hunt, rayozzy
