Grasmere.
"There is something delicious about writing the first words of a story. You never quite know where they'll take you."
― Beatrix Potter

For some of us, Grasmere conjures up visions of the Cumbrian mountains of North West England - pretty lakes, derwent pencils, romantic poets and of course a well-loved author of children's books. We imagine hosts of golden daffodils, red deer, fell ponies, kites, Peter Rabbit, Jemima Puddle-Duck and Squirrel Nutkin.
But of course this is Sydney where we do things differently.

“This is a fierce bad rabbit;
look at his savage whiskers,
and his claws and his turned-up tail.”
― Beatrix Potter
Grasmere Reserve is a nice spot for a walk and has some playground equipment for the family. Why not bring a picnic? But beware...
“It is said that the effect of eating too much lettuce is 'soporific'.”
― Beatrix Potter
The cache is a tupperware container, capable of holding small trackables.
