Logs
Walking around West End between two Multis today and was going right past this one. Muggle smokers soon left leaving the area free for a quick reconnoitre. Soon spotted the cache in its hide. Retrieved, signed, returned.
Note to CO: Unfortunately the log inside the cache is in tatters. Urgently needs a new log (sorry I didn't have one with me today).
Found at 9.45am on 14th April 2016 TFTC

Visiting Brisbane today and with a few hours to kill decided to go on a walk around the City and grab a few caches along the way.
No one around when I arrived at GZ and the cache was in the first spot I looked.
Once the log was signed all was returned as found.

On my way to meet my mum and brother and decided to have a sneaky look for this one, having not been able to locate it many months ago.
Had the right idea last time I looked, but must of been having a cache blind day. Today I saw it almost instantly!
Might need some new paper.
TFTC!

Found this sneaky little one after meeting my daughter, beach_bub23, and on the way back to the car.
Find **#3265** Traditional **#2521**
We have been really enjoying are time around Brisbane. I was lucky enough to be able to sneak in some caches as we explored around the city. Today it was time to make our way to the local markets nearby. After a good look around, we walked back to South Bank so I could find this cache [^] Lucky it was the weekend and no muggles about to make this thankfully a quick find. Signed and returned as found.
*Thanks for this trad cache, Theo C*. [^]
Log and container in good condition.

#21 This was a fun South Bank cache. It was a bit difficult with all the muggles around. I looked a bit like a fruit cake sitting down & then getting up again and moving along...anyway...a good cache the only problem was that I actually wasn't able to unscrew the lid to sign the log. I tried for a long time but had no luck so I took a photo of the cache to prove my visit was legit. TFTC TheoC.
at 15:00. Finally off our watch list at last after we failed to find it 3 1/2 years ago.
We decided to have another look having come here for the Travel Expo.
We searched for some time with our phone frequently changing its mind.
Just as we were going to give up again Cyndi finally found it in the obvious place and the first place we had looked both today and in October 2012.
TFTC TheoC. The cache is fine.

After getting the gps to settle was able to make a quick grab whilst on lunch break at the xero roadshow.tftc out with sonqld and she pointed me in the right direction of where she had looked previously as her gps was way out.
With no one around at 7:30. I was able to freely search and find this impressive cach.
Nice easy find, easier than I imagined, especially because I knew exactly what I was looking for.
The grab was easy, however, putting it back is going to be the tricky part - there is an inquisitive military personnel sitting in a defence car eyeballing me.
.... Waiting waiting waiting and he isn't being to subtle about watching me

This cache was found in good condition after a short search, and adds to our total of 2114 smilies. Thanks TheoC for showing us this spot.
We were eating chicken hearts at Birds Nest, which were very tasty, so decided to head over to this cache. We missed it the 1st time we looked at the little hiding place but eventually found it. Tftc.
Out and about with madscatts for a day at Southbank . After some abseiling , swimming and lunch we headed towards GZ in search of the cache . Accuracy was terrible on my phone today but a nice easy find . TFTC
Found quickly on a second pass of the hide. Should have found it on the first pass. Nice quiet morning here, beautiful day with a breeze. Thanks for the cache.
After many attempts I finally have it.
It only took 1 min for my 12 year old Aaron to find it. I'm so rubbish at this at times.

I didn't have that much time to look for the cashe as it started to rain but I will look again next time!
Went and got this last night just as the rain hit. Not a muggle in site. My GPS must have been off slightly so it took a little bit of time. Great hide TFTC
TFTC.It took a fair bit of patience to get this log signed. The area seems to be a smoking spot, so needed to wait for the lads to finished before making the grab.
zzThis is such a lovely part of town that I decided to have lunch nearby.
Thanks TheoC for placing the cache.

After surviving the rain this morning and looking to kill some time before heading to the airport to catch our flight home to Perth we decided to seek out this cache. We spent more time trying to figure out what side of the road we were meant to be on, once this was sorted we made a quick find! Found with Minergal TFTC
Very close to my hotel while in Brisbane. Very full log. Squished my initials on the log. Tftc.
Nice hide. Had to wait for break in the muggles. Needs a new log. TFTC

On our way with some friends to the good food and wine show and passed by this one. Luckily my friends are pretty forgiving when it comes to caching nd they were willing to sop for the few minutes it took to retrieve the cache and sign the log. TFTH!
Muggles distracted by a domestic that was going on so perfect chance to grab the cache. Been at the Good Food and Wine show all day so stumbling around with a bag of goodies I didn't look out of place. TFTC
Log is mega full. Need new one desperately. Only just squeezed in my entry amongst others.
Proud of myself for finding this little one. Was wondering if the lady sitting on the seat watching us all was a cacher?
Gotcha! Found this little one snug as a bug in its hiding spot. Thank you to TheoC for the fun hide and smiley today.
Really good hide but I needed stealth and the smallest one I have found (Container)
our third founded cache in Australia. we are happy with finding them, so easy... thanx and hot huggies from Holland...
After going to the State Library to fix the not properly working map on spa's GPS wie were glad to find a cache nearby. Cache found, nice spot, GPS fixed, vacation can gibt on! TFTC and greetings from Switzerland
Am in Brisbane for a symposium and am definitely out to get a few smiley faces in the area. Got to this spot after sooooo many traffic lights. But I found the cach easily, no muggals there today. TFTC
In Brisbane for a conference and got to chatting to a colleague about my favourite hobby geocaching. Being a muggle she was a little confused by the whole thing, so on the walk back from the exhibition centre I thought I'd show her. This cache would have been near impossible in the day time, but on a weekday night we were undisturbed in our search. Thanks for my first Queensland find.
I was visiting Southbank for the Oz Comic Con. I had a few minutes to wait before the doors opened so I decided to check this one out.
The description mentions "muggles" but it was a whole different type of muggle today. I was about to grab the cache but had to wait for a bloke dressed as a lumberjack (?) and a girl dressed as a medieval sorcerer (holding a large magical staff) to fix their costume malfunctions and be on their way.
Thanks for the cache TheoC. I will upload a nerdy photo of me hanging out with some Stormtroopers at Comic Con.

1st cache in absolutely ages, but being so close to the conf centre, it couldn't be ignored. Wet day meant loitering while looking wasn't going to be a pleasant option- thankfully it was in the 1st spot I checked! Tftc
At conference at Convention Centre. Ducked out at lunch time and took a little time but we eventually found it. Thanks sharonh1. Nice to meet you and find this little one. TFTC
TFTC Great to be out caching again after a busy couple of days at the Convention Centre. So many potential hiding places at this location, lucky my companion had eagle eyes and spotted this one.
Wandered past here earlier in the day and noted the number of people walking around this area and sitting outside. Came back just as it was starting to get dark and the coast was clear. However, trying to find a nano in the almost dark with no light proved to have its own challenge. Got there in the end though. Log is full but managed to squeeze my name above the previous finders. TFTC!
Woohoo! We found it! Jnr cacher jb the hero while eldest off at a work information day!
8/8/15 in this area today for a conference and I was hoping to grab this one at lunchtime, but thankfully I arrived early enough to grab it before the conference started. A sneaky little hide, particularly when the compass wasn't being cooperative. Some previous logs and aimless wandering pointed at a logical spot and soon the cache was in hand. TFTC TheoC
