Due to unforeseen circumstances Mr Smokey Bear will no longer be a part of Team Smokey Bear and will continue his adventures as "SmokeyBearOG".

So I'm relogging all previous finds under my new account.
Unfortunately this log will not show the original logging date.

**Thanks to D&Mocha for this adventure, looking forward to many more.**

Luckily I found it quick.
Waited for a break in the muggles and jumped down to have a look.

Stealth is definitely a must for this one

Took advantage of being in Queensland for a few days following my cousin’s Hen’s weekend to target some specific challenges, names that caught my eye and a few bonus smileys along the way. Temporarily distracted on my way to GZ by a decoy dog splashing in the lake and rolling in the sand till he looked like a lamington.

Was in the area and I had a list picked out to help me complete this challenge, that challenge and every other challenge I have signed recently! This one made the list. Parked my car and for the second time today I had an encounter with a blue tongue lizard. Talking with some random about said lizard for a few minutes before I excused myself and headed of to GZ. A quick find once there. TFTC D&Mocha

Last time I came to the Gold Coast on holiday's I DNF'd this cache.
It is one of the only geocaches in this entire area apart from the other one nearby, and as I have a friend only living about 1km away it is the closest cache to come look for.

So I was back here today, it has been almost 2 years since my DNF (turns out I started a trend of DNF's that lasted for 5 months event though the cache was there all a long, shows how geocachers are sheep when it comes to DNF logs).

I started searching in a familiar area, and once again couldn't find the cache. Damm...
Took me about 5 mins but I finally found the cache, after searching about 5m away from the coords, after dodging an object that was in the way which was the reason I never searched that far over.

Once your actually in the right spot the cache is very easy and where you would expect it to be.

TFTC D&Mocha! Glad I got there eventually and avenge a DNF that is almost 900km from home (as the crow fly's)

My son and I found this cashe on one of the most beautiful days here on the Gold Coast. Easy fun find.

25-Nov-17
On my way to my sister house the kids and I stopped off at this cache as I have had a travel bug for some time and wanted to put it back out into the wild.
Beautiful day to take the dogs for a swim.
Pity I’d left the mutt at home.
