Kookaburra Laugh Tamborine, Queensland, Australia
By saintsmadhouse on 17-Apr-14. Waypoint GC52Q5M

Day 13 of my fortnight+ road trip up to Brisbane and back to Blue Mountains. Leisurely drives. Avoiding GC power trails. Randomly driving to various spots that take my fancy. Like what a recently geocacher said, no such geocache here. Even up there. Ill log this as DNF to flag the CO and next few finders

We are organising a replacement. Asap

A mint tin may have gone missing. 50/50 on whether that's a good or bad thing.

Found it! Glad we had someone tall with us

Visiting South East Queensland for a week from Port Macquarie. Today we ventured out towards Tamborine Mountain before finishing the afternoon around the Southport area. After a chilly morning, the afternoon warmth was very welcome and made for a rather pleasant day of caching. Came down this road to visit the rainforest skywalk but decided to go a little further to find the two caches a little further along. Managed a quick find after an initial circle.Thanks for the cache

Found on holiday with Mopar318cu Tftc

Found it togheter with kissekin during our eastcoast roadtrip 2024.Tftc...

Out and about on this beautiful Monday with karen rinora. We toured around, and of course found some smilies along the way. Thanks for adding to our great day! It took a big geostretch to reach this one. TFTC!

Didn't see kookaburras today, still a good hide. tftc

Out this morning to collect a few local government area specific caches to close out a challenge cache Ive been working on for sometime. After finding a safe place to park the car I quickly made my way to ground zero where it was too long before i had the cache in my sights.Log extracted and mark made and returned safely to its hiding spot. Now off to the next adventure. Nice hide.A big thanks to the cache owner for making this cache available to be found by fellow cachers.Cheers

Today RoddyC, Hatzofff and I had an early start to cache our way to Beaudesert for an Event then cache after the Event too. Hatzofff was trying to get enough caches in the Scenic Rim for a certain Challenge.Found this cache, signed the log before replacing as found. TFTC

Home from our trip away and getting back into caching. An event in Beaudesert and a challenge to qualify for has brought us to the Scenic Rim.Needed the help of a TOTT.Caching with RoddyC and Imbunda.TFTCache saintsmadhouse

Gottcha good tftc

Nice little find en route home from a beautiful weekend !

Stopped to look at the map and thought it would be a good place to have a look for a cache... a quick find. TFTC

Checked this one as I passed today and it was gone again. I have popped a new on in and will rethink this cache type and placement over the next few weeks.

Unfortunately had no luck here today.

Couldn't spot this one today.

Thanks from Denmark

In all our travels we would not have even thought to travel to this location. (HaHa). In your dreams, these cachers do. [:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort. Devilish Brilliant and Clever I like it Another one off the list TTBLNSL TFTC/TFTH/TFBUH - Saints Mad House [^]

A morning drive means a chance to collect a couple of random caches that still linger on my mapA really quick find and I was back on my wayThanks SaintsMadHouse

Yeow

Good little find

TFTC this cache was found on a basic membership but I enjoying caching so much I paid for premium so I could log my find. Hahaha Thanks to Headquarters for their assistance. Awesome spot. Actually found it on Sunday 13 August 2023 not today.

First ever find

Today we are leaving the mountain to head to warmer lands (home)
Enjoyed our time here. Loaded down with thunder eggs, wine and cheese
Was 3degrees as we got closer to the coast

Made this harder than i needed to. Im blaming the cold and early hour of our departure.
TFTC

First for the monthly challenge. Beautiful area and time with family.

Nice wee park and grab before mining for thunderbird eggs . TFTC

Nice hide! Quick and easy find, very sneaky.
Beware of muggles coming down mountain as they are constant, probably going to fast to see anything, but just in case.
TFTC again saintsmadhouse

The first find of our Mt Tamborine day. Chikinlittler and Mrs EMC were out caching whilst the others enjoyed time on the treetops challenge. Chikinlittler enjoyed retrieving this cache a lot. No kookaburras around today. TFTC.

Today it was a drive around the area of Mt Tamborine to keep up with a personal challenge I have set myself. I got in just the two caches up here today.
I just love the drive around here it is an awesome place and the views around here are just great. Thanks for the trip out to here for this one.

I started to look for this one and another car pulled in just as I started my search. I went back to my car and sat and waited until they had read every word on the map 6 times and took what looked like 1000 photos, gees come on. Finally I got to get the cache.

I signed the log and returned all as found. Thanks for the hide, all good with this one.

Heading up to the event in Mt Tamborine and had to stop for a cache or two along the way. Thanks for placing your cache here.

Out and about caching. Arrived at GZ and found cache. Signed log. TFTC

5 weeks Australia -
Tftc to saintsmadhouse

Found quickly

Together with my favorite geocacher Milonguera we traveled to Australia We went to Melbourne via Singapore and from there we explored the south, the center and the east coast.
We walked around Melbourne and had a nice meet & greet event. Than we visited Philip Island with the pinguins and the Great Ocean Road. We fed and petted kangaroos visited the koalas and continued north via Coober Pedy to Alice Springs. We hiked around the impressive Uluru and through the beautiful Kata Tjuta and breathtaking Kings Canyon. The gorges of the Macdonell-Ranges are nice too. We traveled north and than east to Townsville and Magnetic Island. From Airlie Beach we rafted to the Whitsunday Islands for snorkeling and swimming at Whitehaven Beach and took a seaplane to the Great Barrier Reef.
On the way south we visited the capricorn coast, Great Keppel Island, 1770, Bundaberg, Rainbow Beach and Noosa.

Zusammen mit meiner Lieblingsgeocacherin Milonguera reise ich nach Australien. Über Singapur flogen wir nach Melbourne und von dort wollen wir mit dem Camper den Süden, das rote Zentrum und die Ostküste erkunden. Wir liefen durch Melbourne und trafen nette Menschen bei unserem Event, wir besuchten Philip Island mit den Pinguinen und die Great Ocean Road mit den 12 Aposteln.
Wir fuhren nach Adelaide, besuchten die Koalas und weiter gings Richtung Norden über Coober Pedy bis nach Alice Springs. Wir wanderten um den eindrucksvollen Uluru, durch die wunderschönen Kata Tjuta und den atemberaubenden Kings Canyon. Auch die Schluchten der Macdonell-Ranges sind sehr schön. Weiter gings Richtung Norden und dann nach Osten Richtung Townsville und auf Magnetic Island. Von Airlie Beach fuhren wir mit dem Raft zu den Whitsunday Islands zum Schnorcheln und Baden am Whitehaven Beach und flogen mit dem Wasserflugzeug zum Great Barrier Reef. Auf dem Weg Richtung Süden besuchten wir die Capricorn Coast, Great Keppel Island, 1770, Bundaberg, Rainbow Beach und Noosa.

**Thanks for the cache!
Thanks for showing the location and for hiding the cache. You should come to Berlin in Germany to find a lot of interesting geocaches, visit lost places in the surrounding Brandenburg and meet nice people at many events.
I wish you a lot of fun and great adventures while searching for the next geocache!**

Ich bedanke mich bei saintsmadhouse für den Cache, das Zeigen dieses Ortes, das Legen und Pflegen der Dose und den Spaß beim Finden! Thanks for the cache!
Ich wünsche weiterhin viel Spaß bei der Suche nach den Dosen, nette Menschen beim nächsten Event und tolle Erlebnisse und Abenteuer beim Suchen und Finden!

Ohne tolle Owner wie Euch wäre das Spiel nicht möglich. Ich freue mich, wenn Ihr auch meine Caches in Berlin-Britz besucht. Neben der Hufeisensiedlung, die zum Kulturwelterbe der Unesco gehört, gibt es viele alte Bunker zu entdecken und die Baustelle der Autobahn A100 ist auch immer wieder interessant. Von der neuen Minna-Todenhagen-Brücke zwischen Baumschulenweg und Oberschöneweide hat man einen schönen Blick auf die Spree und kann nebenbei ein paar Dosen finden.
An Neumond lade ich zum Sternegucken auf die Berliner Berggipfel oder an astronomische Orte ein. In der dunkelsten Nacht zwischen den Vollmonden genießen wir den Blick auf die blinkenden Sterne und die funkelnde Stadt Berlin.

The cache has been replaced. Sadly it was wet because someone put a hole in the lid to make a pen fit inside. Silly really.

Found it!! Log was very wet!

Log is soaked

Easy find Found with snookers1190 but log was wet so we put new log in

A nice day out with Davidwazza! TFTC!

Today, it was an early start with an airport drop-off, and then a long drive to Binna Burra for a planned hike. We had decided on Dave's Circuit that detoured past Surprise Rock and Molongolee Cave, and [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I completed the approximate 12 km hike in 4.5 hr. We decided to drive home via Mount Tamborine, subsequently taking a wander along Gallery Walk, before finding a few geocaches on our way home.

Perhaps ashamedly, this cache took me longer than it should have to find. I searched where the coordinates and hint wanted me, but I had double-checked all other possible spots, before finding the sneaky hiding area that yielded a cache. The cache container and logbook were in good shape, although the logbook was slightly damp. Thanks SaintsMadHouse for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

Found it! Paper is a bit damp. Left a pen in there for future geocachers

One of 27 found today. I was on a maintenance run with SaintsMadHouse as they had a few to check up on. Happy to help and make sure they could be found and see what needed to be checked.

Great spot to get out

So my pre-work mini adventure is off to a fine start.. I lost my pen in the first hour and I’m at this GZ wondering why it’s so busy around here.. someone forgot it was a public holiday for Brisbane haha oops! Oh well I’m here now so I’ll make the most of it. A quick find once the muggles left. A scratched a W on the log. Thanks for the cache and generous hint. Now it’s time to check out the nearby botanical gardens and Adventure Lab then have a wonder around Sandy Creek Circuit and Cameron Falls.
Cheers

Quick find.

Tftc SaintsMadHouse , we had a great day out today, driving around . After a big day yesterday. The scenery here is pretty special. Thanks for bringing us here.

Easy park and go. TFTC

All good to go with new container and log. Sorry about the delay.

FUN catch easy find

This is unable to be found as I have taken it away to replace it.

Found it I coundnt reach and I wasn’t sure it was there until I got my tall friend to check and get it. The cap is starting to brake so be careful when you try to open it.

Pretty good spot thanks

Find #8 for TheJimmyClarkes. Today we were on our way up the mountain for a few hours of geocaching and bushwalking when we came across this one. The hint was spot on. TFTC

Quick find. Didn't need to be tall because I could stand on something. Quick find once I did.

Nice quick find on my drive up the mountain

Got yeah. Quick little find

A great park and grab, with the cache hidden well from muggles but a wizard with a wand will have no trouble. TFTC.

Quick find TFTC

Quick find. Sometimes being tall comes in handy!
Tftc!

Found after reading some other logs. TFTC

Found today on a nice Saturday morning! Had the spot all to ourselves and made the find pretty easily. TFTC.

Making our way to Mt Tamborine for a weekend away, we pulled in here to switch drivers. I pulled out my phone out to see where the caches were and we were right on top of this one! Perfect start! Jumped out of the car and made the quick find, added our names to the log and continued on. Tftc saintsmadhouse

Off for a drive for a few smiles on the way to Canungra.

We spotted this from the car and thought that perhaps some of the earlier "vertically challenged" cachers couldn't reach a safer, less obvious hide. Replaced in line with the hint. TFTC SaintsMadHouse

Found it!! Nice easy one

Tftc, need a stick to find. Not short people friendly

Happy New Year!!! New year, new log book. Thank you!

Replaced cache

Where the hint says is nothing, we think it’s gone..

Nice spot. Tftc

I was up here for a wedding. I see this one not to far away. So took a quick walk to GZ. An easy find was made here. I signed the log and replaced as found. TFTC

Thanks for this cache, wasn’t that hard but enough to fill in some time. Read the description and you’ll do well.

TFTC it is great I love it

TFTC! Was our first for the day and a great way to get started

Tftc

Cache had been driven over and flat as a tack. Have replaced with eclipse tin but red if owner wants to come paint it green again

Stopped here before heading to the thunderbird park.

A couple of days in Tambourine Mountain, staying at a little Airbnb cottage. Headed out for some touristy stuff and a few caches today.

On Annual Leave for a month and that leaves more time for geocaching.

We have taken a 2 week holiday from Perth to QLD. Spending a few days on the Sunshine Coast, a few days in the mountains and then a week on the Gold Coast.
