In order to find this cache you will need to complete all five (5) Stages of the "I SPY @ Garden of Australian Dreams" Adventure Lab. Upon completion of each stage, you will get one piece of the "code" presented to you in your journal. The stages can be completed in any order, therefore you will need to pay attention to the position of the value you recieve. You can always go back and see all your journal entries, so don't stress if you forgot to record it down.

For example if the code you are given is " ???H?", this means the fourth value in your code will be a "H". 

Once you have completed all the stages of the Adventure Lab, you should have a complete code which you will need to confirm in the Certitude Checker below, which will give you the final coordinates for this BONUS cache! 


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.

This bonus cache is located close by to the National Museum of Australia, and is a great way to end your visit after you have explored the gardens and all the gallery's! 

I hope you enjoy this Adventure Lab and bonus mystery cache! laugh

Note: The cache size has been selected as "Other" as the cache host is a "small" whilst the container holding the logbook is a "micro"

Fun fact: This is the 2nd last GC code in the world to start with a number!
