This is a five part multi cache. Part one is at the above
coordinates, the next four coordinates are in Germany, Canada, UK
and USA.
There are five World Caches: World Cache (Australia) World Cache
(Canada) World Cache (Germany) World Cache (United Kingdom) World
Cache (United States of America)
This is designed as a team event with the team consisting of a
member in each of the five countries.
How this cache is designed: One set of coordinates have been sent
to each country from each country. So each country has one of the
other's coordinates, as in the following table.

At the posted coordinates you will find a set of coordinates for
one of the other countries. You will have to e-mail these
coordinates to your team-mate in that country. That team-mate can
then go to that waypoint and find the next set of coordinates which
will be for another country, then e-mail it to the team-mate for
that country, and so on till the caches are completed.
For example, the team member in Australia finds Stage 1 of World
Cache (Australia), and e-mails the coordinates they find to their
team-mate in Germany, who can then find Stage 2 of World Cache
(Germany). At their local Stage 2, the Germany team will find the
coordinates for Stage 3 of World Cache (United Kingdom), which they
will e-mail to their UK team-mate.
If you are in Australia, and you would like to join a team for this
series, write a note saying you are available. You can also visit
the other cache pages looking for team-mates on the links
below.
The setting up of World Cache (Australia) which spans three
continents and five countries was a complicated but enjoyable task,
but there were numerous hurdles along the way.
The “World Cache Series” having their waypoints
scattered all around the world are not the average multi caches and
required a team that were dedicated to the cause to make this
happen.
To my team: Chris (Canada) Christoph (Germany) Colin & Ally
(United Kingdom) and Chad (United States of America) We had a few
hiccups along the way but stuck together through it all. Thanks to
all of you.
A special thanks to the geocaching reviewers for embracing this
concept and allowing these caches to proceed in this format.
The World Cache challenge is yours. I hope you enjoy it and gain
new global geo-friendships along the way.

December 31, 2009 by TeamHurtle (2809 found) Would it be fair to say Team Noah & Sundance609 haven't read the cache notes, and should have been joining a team, and finding a wpt to send overseas for their next wpt and not a cache? :-)

December 30, 2009 by team_Noah (60 found) as sundance609 mentioned, we searched and searched for this one which seems to evade me every time I look for it, even after seeing 2 German cachers searching too, we left empty handed:o(
