Muggles everywhere. Thought i knew where it would be but no luck in any of the holes. Might have been pushed in too far?
Spot on. Brisk walk from the soccer fields while the kids are at training... TFTC
Today is my last chance to find enough caches to claim the 'Wold Turtle' Souvenir.
So I left home at 4 am and arrived at my first cache for the day just before 6 am.
A couple of caches down I am now in this area finding the odd cache or two.
I found this one in the first place I looked. [^]
Now on to the next one before heading to Nudgee to go kayaking. [^]
Thanks for the cache.

Easy morning and during school holidays was the perfect time for this one. A tidy little cache. Thanks!
Had to be in Nundah today and had a couple of hrs spare, what else to do than find a couple of caches.
Fairly easy, been a long time since urban caching.
Anyhow all id with the cache

The other day 20 new challenge caches appeared, and I checked the requirements for them all. It seems I needed 53 traditional caches on specific days to fulfill one particular challenge so they are now in the calendar and this is the first one to find towards completing that challenge. I passed a horse on the way, pity it didn't count for one of the 49 horse attributes I need for another challenge lol. At GZ I figured out where the cache would be and checked both sides, yep hidden as expected. TFTC
This took me way too long to locate and a lady kept wandering back and forth across the bridge as though she’d lost her way home
Eventually I located the cache in its clever hidey hole.

Oh I wasn't sure how safe this was in the night. When I found myself a parking spot I heard some men talking which made me a little scared as it was well after 11 pm. Though " Be brave and just get it". Only took a few minutes and I was signing the log and replacing cache. TFTC
Driving home to Redcliffe I saw the flashing lights indicating there was a crash on the gateway but I didn’t know the extent of the chaos. I saw the tail lights stretching on for miles so decided on a tour up the old Gateway and the corruption deepened. There was a car on its side and this wasn’t the crash causing the problems.
So I inched along trying to remember every word in my cuss vocabulary. I’d better run through them again because I’m not moving.
In the end I got close enough to the exit and decided I would be better off looking for a cache then spending another couple of hours in traffic.
A night hunt in the dark is always fun. I haven’t used the torch for a while so the batteries were going flat but good enough to make the grab. Removing the cache, I almost dropped it but it just stayed in the end of my fingertips.
With the torch in my mouth, I signed the log and noticed the signature of our geo-Jedi’s 4ando as the last visitor. Small world. tftc

We took some back streets and skinny footpaths on our way back to the geo-beast with the inclination of picking a few more caches on our way. We were waiting for a hint of act like a troll and we were pleasantly surprised not to have to
We took a few different approaches to searching here before we found what we needed. After being at the local bike race track and watching the racers whizzing around the track we thought we could do that if only we trained more, drank less, ate better and were a few years younger. We saw a poster and thought we would have this ride in the bag though…nope that would involve training more, drinking less and eating better…

We were out visiting this area today, having done some shopping nearby at the big outlet. We are gradually finding our way around Brisbane and geocaching has helped us to get our bearings. Thanks for placing this geocache. The nearby Jacaranda tree looked spectacular.

Another easy one. Didn't go straight to it but used powers of elimination to find it. IPhone GPS not very accurate. TFTC
A little more difficult than it could've been as I made wrong assumptions as to what I was looking for, but got it. Pen is dry so I kind of just left an impression. TFTC:-)
With a couple of hours spare, I had a morning out tidying up a few solved puzzles and other unfound hides in the Inner North. This was a quick grab on the way round the park collecting clues for the nearby multi.
Thanks **beegram** for bringing us here, this find makes #3812. Discover our trackable TGQNRV.

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga2 at 12 noon. Found it this time, been here before. Found quickly. TFTC
I met up with stortigirls after she finished work. Our aim was to find a couple of caches before it got too dark. This was the first. I checked a couple of spots and soon had the cache in hand. We added our name to the log, rehid the cache, then set off to find the information for the nearby multi. TFTC
Another sneaky after work outing with Selva Girls today to pick up a few more smilies in the area. A quick find here then on to the nearby multi. Tftc beegram!
Out and about with Sinem77 today in the final push for my mini milestone of 1500 by my first geo anniversary today
This one one was first cab off the rank just as a small burst of rain started to fall. We weren't about to allow any amount of rain to spoil the party and a quick find was made by Sinem77.
Hooray . Tftc beegram

Nice and quick find on my last day in Australia. This was a great week down under.

This walkway was muggle central today and there were more muggles in the dog park.
I sussed out the area and picked a couple of spots to search when the coast was clear. I found the cache in the second spot.
Glad to get this one quickly. I checked out the requirements for the nearby multi but I didn't have time to check it out so I will be back another day.

Visiting family and good chance to take their dog for a walk. Bit hot for both of us but nice to pick up a cache. Nice hide. TFTC beegram
Out for a short early morning geocycle before the heat came on. Taking in a few caches during the circuit is always enjoyable. Find some new alternative back tracks is a bonus.
Nicely hidden cache. Found reasonably quickly and signed and replaced as found.
TFTC beegram!

Spent ten minutes giving the bridge a thorough pat down until Miss 10 got too restless. No luck
Travelling back from PNG and overnighting in Brisbane on way back to NZ
Had already got a cache to maintain our streak however as I had a bit of time to spare before my pick up I decided this small detour was in order.
My geosenses were working well tonight as I found it where I expected it to be.
Signed the log and returned cache to its hiding position.
Now to head back for my pick up.

A quick find with 1MinnieMoo, after we ignored our navigational devices which were sending us all over the place. We left our marks and replaced as found.

GPS was enjoying playing with NyssaFlutterby and I today, and here it told us the other side but we still managed to find it relatively quickly by ignoring the sneaky little device and just looking/feeling around. Thanks for the cache beegram.

Out with Net88 today finding a couple of caches.
We had just finished the WPs of the nearby multi when we had to go past this one to get to the final.
A quick search around GZ and we found this one hiding on the opposite side of where the GPS was pointing us to.
Great condition, TFTC!

Sezzz and I were both free for a few hours this morning so decided to get a bit of caching in before my midday meeting. This was the first cache for us for the day after dnfing a multi a few km away. We had an idea of where the cache would be hidden it was just a matter of finding which spot was the right one. I was about to search deeper in one spot when Sezzz said she had found it! It was bigger than I expected and soon we had added our names to the logbook. Thanks for the cache beegram
Last in a mini caching day while Mrs Moose was getting a massage. Easy enough find when I found the correct side. All is good with this cache. Tftc beegram
Out and about looking to find a few caches on the way to a particular target today and this was my next stop. I was a little worried with people in the dog park, however it turned out they were out of sight and I did not take to long to find the cache anyway. I got it signed while looking over the little creek and soon enough I was on my way again.

Swellerfungus, Crookedpete and I were out to gather 20 multis in a day to meet the requirements of a Challenge Cache we were yet to qualify for. This was a bit of random find for us, being a traditional cache, but we were walking right past it and CP had already found it and brought it to our attention. No one had this loaded on their GPS so it was purely by CP's memory that we found this cache. TFTC
A little extra one for the team today. As we were passing it, it would be just plain rude not to grab it!
Out to get today's souvenir, and I spotted this one and the mutli nearby. Took a little while to change my thinking here, and then the hide was quite obvious. TFTC.
DNF for us. There are limited places to look and I think we checked them all.
Slipped past and grabbed this cache after work tonight as I start a new streak to try to qualify for a challenge cache in NSW. Even though I don't live far away, I haven't visited this park for a while. They have certainly done some work here since I was last here.
Thanks for bringing me here, Beegram

Found at a lovely park in Northgate, nice hide, found with Quesera and Bear0503 Tftc
Met finders 141 and bear0503 with Rusty my geo dog to find this cache and rusty. This is a beautiful park and rusty is enjoying a romp in the dog park while we log this cache. It was a nice little hiding spot and neat cache. TFTC

After a quiet morning at home we decided to cross the border & raid a few northern caches.
20 incursions & struck gold on them all! LOL ... Smiles that is!
A beautiful specimen of water dragon was there to greet me as I approached the bridge.
The compass wanted to take me to the wrong side but a quick find was made regardless.
Made our mark & replaced as found.

#1300 While visiting Caloundra from Canberra, this was my first cache along the way. And my first in QLD. Quick find after a short stroll to the bridge. Thanks beegram.
I zoomed by this one doing the nearby multi. I realised at my next waypoint that I had missed it, so I went back for a look.
I had a good idea of where the cache might be, but even that allowed for a few options. I did try a few before getting the right one.
Nice to see a D1 cache that is truly accessible from a wheel chair. [^]

Found quickly while doing the surrounding multi. Good idea to combine activities!
Found at 6.35pm on 5th April 2016. TFTC

2nd time lucky! We must have looked in the right spot about a half dozen times but from the wrong angle!
