The sign that we had placed this cache on has been removed so it's no more cache or transfers now.
About to give up because it started to pour with rain. Had to jump in the car to keep it dry. Log book full but found a space to write on.
Arrived at this one with Ms Wig and a muggle was parked nearby.... yeah, no idea why??? Anyway, decided to look really interested in reading the sign while making some quick checks round the back. After spotting what I needed, it was a stealthy retrieve, sign and replace and then we were on our way!
Thanks Couchmen
Thanks Couchmen
We enjoyed this series very much. I'm not sure we have completed it all but I think we've done most of it.
Thank you very much for putting these caches. What a good way to wander thru the new developing suburb. Cheers to you and D&MOCHA!

Out for a little Australia Day hunt before the kids go back to school, and was driving past on Our way home. Nice quick find. TFTC
Today bikesu and I went caching around Jacobs Well. Thanks for the caches, we had a lot of fun.
As a Christmas / 40th anniversary gift, Uwe001 and I got tickets for the Magician Show in Sanctuary Cove. We left home early to change some caches around Jacobs Well into Smilies. We were not always successful, but enjoyed the day caching. Thanks to all cache owners! We saw some amazing places and caches.
We almost gave up, but when we saw one of the photos, we started again searching.
Yippie! Found it. Tftc
and then we had to go straight to Sanctuary Cove for the Magician Show ... which was spectacular!

After a day in Brisbane caching and on my way home, I realised I still had some spare time.. so, a quick drive-by and a find. All in good order.
Cheers

Didnt find it. Its been raining and although it said we are on top of it. There was nothing on the road. Feel like its in the drain under the road!!
After a recent note saying a new log was needed we checked it and found the whole back side of the log was still free. So ... Turn over the paper and sign in the little numbered boxes.
Quick detour on the way home lead me here in the hope of a couple quick finds. Great "little" one. TFTF.
TFTC sneaky little hide. Thank you for putting the trail together. Enjoyed with sharp eyed GeoGirlfriend on a sunny afternoon exploring an area we wouldn't normally go to.
RoddyC parked very close to this cache and I was able to jump out and grab this one.
Brought back to the geomobile to sign the log and returned to hide.
The day is fast approaching darkness and we want to get the list done before heading home.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks Couchmen All good with this cache

Pulled right up to the GZ, and quickly spotted the cache. Team Benders could feel it, but being a bit taller , I did the retrieval and replacement. What an easy way to finish off the CDPT series today. Thanks Couchmen and DChanell for your effort in placing and maintaining the caches here. Found at 5.10pm on 9th September 2015. TFTC.
I was enroute to a specific cache this morning and had a couple of others in this trail that were still showing green on the map. This was the first and as soon as I pulled in I knew where the cache would be. So left the phone and GPSr in the car and jumped out to make the grab. Got it without any problem soon had my name in the log and heading back to the car for the next.

Another lovely clear winter's day to do a spot of caching with Aussie Liahona. We were looking for many of the caches on the CDPTrail as well as several individual caches. Thanks to all the COs for placing caches in this wonderful area.
Found this cache today in a spot with plenty of parking. You just need to be aware of trucks that might come rushing through this location.
One other thing to be aware of - there needs to be an attraction between the magnet and the item it's attached to. Other wise it will disappear. Please make sure it is 'attracted'.
Thanks Couchmen for the opportunity to get a smilie at this location. SLTNLN [^][^]

We arrived into Jacobs Well this morning & after setting up camp at the caravan park we headed out to find caches on the CDPT & others that were on our way. It was a good way to do a tiki tour of the area.
Thanks for placing this cache Couchmen

Up from Canberra and found with Rapidlywild on a two week geomission around the Gold Coast and, of course, for the MEGA
So with 4 days of caching and over 100+ finds under our belts so far, we've had a great time touring around caching and seeing new places Lovely to cache in the warm QLD weather as well!
Apologies for the somewhat generic logs- it's not easy remembering every single hide so far!
Thanks very much to all of the cache owners for their hides

Out and about in the Upper Coomera and surrounds area again today. I accidently took a wrong turn and we ended up heading north on the motorway instead of south. All was good however as we ended up finding a rural powertrail to completed. The day was a little drizzly then the rain got heavier towards the evening. We ended up with 29 finds and a heap of DNF's and UTA (Unable to attempts) due to alot of roadworks going on within that area.
Apologies to all the cache owners for generic logs however we enjoyed the day wandering around the Upper Coomera and Surrounds.
Thanks Couchmen for placing this cache for us to make a find on

I have searched for this one in the past but with no joy. Today however I found it straight away...I figure it went missing for a while, but now it is obviously back in place. A quick park and grab. TFTC
Lots of passing traffic. Tricky to relieve and replace without attracting attention
Heading to Jacobs Well with the tinny. Stopped to grab this one on the way, plenty of room to pull over. TFTC.
A quick converstation with Couchmen and all sorted. Cache was MIA and l wasn't going mad
Well hit a dnf on this one. Followed the hints and checked obvious places but nil luck. Will check back again another day.
A strange sight in this pull-off today as a crazy woman stood in the back of her hatchback trying to, well, whatever it was she was trying to do... Twitching? Stretching?
I'm a good foot shorter than the CO so forgive me as jumping up and down on the spot during breaks in the traffic gets monotonous. I backed Sooty up and used the boot as a launching pad to play Spot the Cache
Logged and returned carefully as I could just reach it on tippy toes
On we rolled...
TFTC Couchmen!

A beautiful spot to set up a beach sun lounge to soak up the ambiance of Pimpama's finest. The surroundings simply took my breath away... literally. This cache should have been titled Carsinogenic. Great for train spotters as I literally heard and saw 12 trains within 5-minutes. Look forward to your next cache rummaging through garbage at the Molendinar refuse plant. Not sure how this cache passed the reviewer as it is disappointing that so many geocachers will be trampling through this national treasure. Look forward to bringing overseas friends to the Pimpama Alps.
Just as well the facility is closed. I'm sure this area would have been pretty busy at times.
I guessed where and what the cache would be but it still took me a bit to locate the blighter. I must need new glasses.

With a bit to do this morning I had a late start, so a quick find was in order.
So, on my way to work I detoured off of the highway and headed straight to this one.
A quick find and I was on my way again.
Thanks for the cache.

It was very busy around GZ, but all far enough away not to matter. The sign is a useful distraction anyway - just pretend to be reading it
I had planned on leaving home earlier this morning to sus out a few new one's but while I was getting ready one of our monkeys woke up and delayed my departure.
So with only an hour to spare before work I headed straight for this one. As I pulled into the dirt driveway two blokes were getting out of work utes on the left hand side of the main gate. I parked right in front of GZ and jumped out with my phone. They were wondering what I was doing so I quickly pretended to be on the phone. I had already spotted the cache so once they turned their attention to their work I quickly grabbed it and retreated to the passenger seat. Signed the log and replaced as found.
I couldn't see them so replacement was easier.
Thanx again Couchmen
