Goodbye Cactus Jack, it’s time to let you have new adventures. I’ve dropped you off at a CITO and event on the Geelong foreshore. Geelong is Victoria’s second city and the home of my Australian Rules Football team, The Geelong Cats. During the 1850s Victorian gold rush, Geelong experienced a boom as the main port to the goldfields of central Victoria. The town then diversified into manufacturing, and during the 1860s became one of the largest manufacturing centres in Australia with its wool mills, ropeworks, and paper mills. Good luck! 😺

I’ve nearly finished my multi calendar so had to make an emergency rush to this cache in Coburg prior to my father-in-law’s 80th birthday party. Known for its large Lebanese, Greek and Italian populations, Coburg is famously culturally diverse, with its diversity being at the forefront of Coburg's portion of Sydney road, well known across greater Melbourne for its immense variety of storefronts, ranging from the suburb's specialty; kebab shops, trendy cafés, Greek and Italian style patisseries, to grocery stores and delis of many different cultures. 🥙

Wombatwandering took it to Berwick High Street History

You took the train way out to Berwick today despite the forecast rain. Apparently Berwick is part of Melbourne despite it being 41 kms away. Urban sprawl. The original town was named by an early leaseholder, Robert Gardiner, after his birthplace, Berwick-on-Tweed close to the Scottish English border. I’ve been there after walking the Pennine Way. Berwick was the home of Edwin "Teddy" Flack, Australia's first Olympian and Olympic gold medal winner (800 metres (870 yd) and 1,500 metres (1,600 yd)) at the inaugural Athens Olympic Games. 🏃🏻♂️

Into Melbourne Central Shopping Centre for the monthly geocaching meetup that is held there. Although the Melbourne Central Business District area is described as the centre, it is not actually the demographic centre of Melbourne due to urban sprawl to the southeast. The demographic centre being located at Camberwell. Despite this, Melbourne's CBD has become Australia's most densely populated area, with approximately 19,500 residents per square kilometre, and is home to more skyscrapers than any other Australian city. 🏙️

Wombatwandering took it to Mordialloc Beach

Another lovely Autumn day in Melbourne so I headed to the beachside suburb of Mordialloc for some caching. Mordialloc’s swimming history centered on its historic sea baths built in 1886 but demolished following storm damage in 1934. Although Melbourne is situated on Port Phillip Bay with some great sheltered beaches, swimming was originally segregated by gender and limited to specific times. The flying of a red flag denoted the presence of men while a white flag warned people that women occupied the baths. Restrictions on mixed bathing began to ease around 1917, allowing men and women to swim together legally but strict codes for clothing remained enforced. 👙

I need to return my mother-in-law’s car so I took it for a last spin and headed north to Yan Yean. It’s home to Yan Yean Reservoir which was commissioned in 1857 and was the world's largest artificial reservoir at the time. It remains a key water source for Melbourne’s northern and western suburbs. I also stopped by Yan Yean Cemetery which is home to some of my relatives that settled in the area including Great Aunty Ev and Great Uncle Boy. My mum said he was the funniest man she’s ever known. 🚿

Out to the end of the Craigieburn train line for a Wherigo stage. Craigieburn is a satellite suburb located on the urban-rural fringe of northern Melbourne. Urban sprawl. I can’t add any more than that. 🤷🏼♀️

Today was an event just across the road from the famous Melbourne Cricket Ground. It’s the largest stadium in the Southern Hemisphere. Grandstand redevelopments and occupational health and safety legislation have limited the maximum seating capacity to approximately 95,000 with an additional 5,000 standing room capacity, bringing the total capacity to 100,024. I’ve met the event owner in East London - it’s a small geocaching world. 🏟️
