Clearly the cache has been muggled. It really shouldn't be too hard to find so, this many DNFs can't be wrong.
I will try to reinstate in the coming weeks.

Countless not find

Arghhh - sounds like things have been moved. Will head over in the next few weekends to check out what the situation is and repair if needed. Need some more time to empty another peaches bottle in case I need to do a replacment. Thanks for your patience.

Look out thorns on bushes qround where it says it is

Went with Dingo#1, definitely missing unfortunately

Dnf checked with Grocery but no joy

No luck for me either, even with the hint.

[@ruzzelz](http://coord.info/PR10CCB) thanks for searching & logging the find. I was a little worried it might have been muggled. Glad we could provide free shower - hope sea breeze dried you off quickly.

Searched thoroughly and could not find, even with the hint.

We all spent some time searching around where the Garmin thought was GZ, including the spot suggested by the hint, but no sign of a cache today. We shall have to come again. TFTC anyway, Seeing Spots.

Thanks for the cache very nice place

A playground!

Island hopping with Stealthseeker. Enjoying the AL of the islands.
Thought we'd gather a few smiley faces while we were here.
Thanks for sending us on a little tour of the island. We really enjoyed all the clever names of the houses.
My favourites were "Karradise" and "Karrabilli House".
I don't think we found a "Karrawong"?

With Aussiemates today exploring the SMBI with an Adventure Lab and some caches. What a great little hidden playground. No kids today made for a quick find. TFTC

So a while back, I had this great adventure and thought what a great day’s outing it would be for me and the girls. We could take the bikes, island hope on the ferry’s, grab a few caches in the bay and do an adventure lab as well. Should take approximately 4 hrs of caching plus a lunch and drinks ok 5 hours. We could have some lunch at one of the islands and even take in a swim. Well life deals some bad cards some days, so the idea got shelved. That was until I got a phone call from triple turmoil saying she and Rylie had a free day and was at a loose end, hmmm. So I pitched an idea at her and the next thing we were set.

Today we did just that, jumped on the ferry and went to Russel first, grabbed the adventure lab and then a lonnng bike ride to grab a cache. Back on the next ferry to lamb, easy grab a cache and a couple of labs. Back on the next ferry to Macleay, grab a couple of labs. Back on the next ferry to Karragarra. Here we had a swim, a bike ride and finished the days outing, labs done, caches done, awesome. The ferry service was just great and the operators were very helpful in telling us what to do with our bikes.

It was a very nice day and a great days outing, thank you to the CO’s for the caches and the lab. We signed all logs and were happy to find all caches today.
So here we are on the final island and finally a bit of flat island to ride around, thank you.

Chamad and I both had a spare day today and were looking at options for a ride as Mr TT9 usually enjoys a ride more than Miss TT11 (who was off on scout camp). Chamad mentioned taking the bikes on the ferries and doing the 4 islands to complete the new AL. I have often thought of taking the kids to Coochiemudlo to do caching with the bikes, so this seemed like the perfect practice.

The weather was hot but perfect. Some of the hills on the islands were a bit much for Mr9, but he pushed through and gave it his all. There was a lot of whinging and giving up at times, but at the end he actually said he had a really good day. So did I.

Except now, as I am logging these finds, he is covered in Calamine Lotion. Either his swim or the lie down on a towel in the playground resulted in almost his whole body covered in bites of some kind. Glad it took hours for them to show up or it may have been a painful ride home. Bike, ferry, car....we travelled them all today.

With Tracy

Out and about on the bike collecting caches on the Bay Islands and completing the AL along the way.

Now after arriving at the nearby event it was time to seek out the cluster of new and the odd not so new cache on this Island. After collecting a few other caches prior to the rain moving in i was well and truly soaked through by the time i arrived here. A cacher has to do what a cacher has to do.

Saturday. The highlight of this day was the Fang event, between that and the weather which changed from Brisbane to Tully half way through, i was surprised to find I had managed to get the SP name into this log.

This was the 2nd of 9 caches logged on this outing.

Thanks ***Seeing_Spots*** for showing us this place

I has been many years since I last visited this island and found all the geocaches here. But today, I am attending the [Community Celebration Event](https://coord.info/GC8HK43) on Karragarra. After checking in at the event and having a chat for a while, I decided to motor off for some solo geocaching, and exploring.

For the transit, I had brought my less-than-a-week old electric scooter across to chew through the kilometres. Truthfully, I didn't think it made me any quicker than those on foot as I have a tendency to stop and look at things an awful lot. And this area was a prime example of that. Having never seen it before, I spent a while here.

Arriving from Noyes Parade, I parked the scooter and first port of call was the facilities. For two reasons. One, obvious. The other, because I'd heard they were worth seeing. I'll add a photo of the outside, but that's not the intresting side.

Onto the geocache and the handy clue meant a quick find and signature at about 12:30 for me. I pondered the swing, but was more drawn to the community garden. I headed over there and looked about for a good long time - what a wonderful space. Thanks for making me stop her,e, Seeing_Spots.. and the smiley too

Heading back to the event and a subsection of the team-karra group ventured in for a quick find amongst some thorny vines. Thanks Seeing_Spots for an excuse to visit Karra.

Last physical cache for the event day before the weather got the best of us. Some really lovely gardens around. Thought I’d share another pic, not sure how I’d managed the photo effect might have been the rain, but looks pretty good anyway. TFTC

Mrs Slow Puncture told me about this event and we have been planning some island hopping for some time . Today she unfortunately could not make it but Mr Slow Puncture could. The weather was fine when we got there but we could see some big clouds in the distance so i decided to get going quick. It was still not raining for this cache and thanks to the hint i soon spotted the cache. Great community garden nearby. What a lovely little island . Thanks for taking me here and for placing this cache here for us to enjoy

Again just Team ARF, Nobby and myself wandering in to search here. Quickly found! TFTC

We came across to the Island with Crew 153 to join in at the event and do some caching with some of the other attendees.

Some of the others had found this one previously so they stood back while we searched. It was a quick find.

TFTC Seeing_Spots

Easy

Found it with goldielover after a nice chat with team herbz. A little damp here today.
TFTC

Found with mates before the event today. Replaced the logbook. Thanks for bringing me here. Loved the fancy toilet

Over on the island for a Community caching event. We decided to take the geomuts for a walk and find some caches. By the time we reached GZ the rain was pouring down. Fortunately we quickly spied a likely spot for the treasure and the log was signed. TFTC

Found this cache out in the open nearby. Rehomed where I remember it living.

Great sized cache on a gorgeous island. So glad to be able to find this one with mini-OBC, and with K&F. We were on the way to another cache and it was a crime not to stop by and grab this one on the way. The kids enjoyed the playground. What a gorgeous and friendly island! Fabulous day all over.
TFTC Seeing Spots!

Me and my young cousin found this one after a little bit of searching in the wrong place but definitely an easy find for the littler ones

Thanks so much! This was my first ever geocache find and it really made my day! I'm hooked now!

Found er

Great surprise to find this here today!

Found on a bike ride with Puff'n'Puffin

Dropped Happy Holidays Tom here as it seems a nice place to visit

TFTC. Awesome location.

Thanks Seeing-Spots. Great location. Fantastic little island. Visiting Karragarra Island while friends are breaking ground for their new home. Beautiful place. Signed log and returned cache to its home.

Thanks for a great find

A fun day out with Davidwazza! TFTC!

Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I spent the day exploring Southern Moreton Bay Islands, and targeting the *Southern Moreton Bay Saunter* Adventure Lab. I had not visited these islands before, and it was actually easier than I thought travelling via the Bay Islands Passenger Ferry, and we then explored the four islands: Russell, Macleay, Karragarra and Lamb island. The smaller islands were more enjoyable with less vehicles and more quirky houses, whilst the larger islands just felt like suburb extensions to the mainland. We stopped off for an ice-cream at Lamb Island, whilst after riding a fair distance in Russell Island grabbing a geocache, we stopped for a late lunch, before returning back to Redland Bay.

This was our first geocache find in Karragarra Island, and with thanks to the hint, the cache was a reasonably quick find. The cache container was in good shape, although the logbook is starting to become fragile (but there is still plenty of space in here). Thanks Seeing_Spots for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

Thanks to geocache creator. This is my first find!

Green bracelet traceable retrieved.

Found this with the kids today. An exciting find! Signed the log, left a trinket.

Good cache

Nice easy one and all good with the cache , TFTC cheers

Got it!. OMG the mozzies!!!

We were visiting the islands on this ferry run today to do Fangsoki's Adventure Lab. What a great day out we are having and we are so envious of those living on these lovely islands. We walked down to this cache and made a quick find and gladly signed the log. Thanks for hiding it Seeing_Spots. It encouraged us to see more of the island than we otherwise might have.
Cheers and happy caching!

So nice on this island. Got this one while doing AL. Thanks and fav point alloc

Found it. Great hide. Thanks!

This was our first fail! Even with the hint... Mosquitoes too voracious, even with repellent

Out doing an adventure lab, an used the time to find this lovely park.

Go

Great hide

Lovely walk from the jetty. Visited the community garden. Talked to a few friendly locals. Nice man offered us a lift although we declined. TFTC

On our island hopping adventure day we kept checking our phone just in case we were wondering past any other caches on our journey and what do you know we found an extra. We took a slight detour and went off in search of this one. It wasn't long before we had made the find and it was time now for fish and chips on the beach washed down with a cold beverage, just how every day on the beach should end.

Checking out Karragarra Island with gc70. Nice weather for a walk. Thanks for the cache.
Dropped TB6CV0F A Guitarra Portuguesa for a rest before the next adventure.

Out with my husband Wayn0 .... beautiful spot here in the islands great little cache needed his help with this one

A day island hopping via the ferry system.

This was found easily enough once at GZ.

Find #2632

TFTC ***Seeing_Spots***

Out on an early boat trip to test drive the motor since it hasn't been out for a long time. First stop was the north side of Karragarra to find Zac's treasure and as I slipped into the nearby toilet my son had the cache in his hand. I have never been into such a loved toilet in my life and as I signed the log my son went to the toilet and came out commenting on the highly adorned premises. Off to find another cache now. TFTC

Out Island hopping with geo friends and found this hide rather quickly. Awesome location here, nice and relaxing.

Visiting for the lab cache and grabbed this waiting for the next ferry. Tftc

Out for a day with some "crazy caching ladies" to complete the new lab cache. Decided to collect some other caches too.
TFTC Seeing_Spots

Wow. A little hidden gem. Fighting off the mozzies today. Tftc

A super fun day out completing an adventure lab. TFTC

Out for the day with Fangsoki and Crew153 (both had been here before). We were placing lab caches on the SMB islands, and in general getting "out of the house". We'd been to all the islands now and so a quick walk up the road to here and for me a quick find.

Thanks Seeing_Spots for entertaining me at this location.
*{Overall find #7183}*

Beautiful day for the island.

Great cache! Thanks for placing it here and giving us a chance to explore your beautiful island.

Not wrong about the mossies! Glad we had spray to re apply!

Thanks

It was Wacky Wednesday but both my usual WW caching partners were unavailable today. So the lovely Fangsoki decided to be my honorary partner today, and take me to Karragarra and Lamb Islands between school hours, promising me that Karragarra is a gorgeous island.
Well upon arrival it was apparent just how correct he was! Such a pretty little island, and the little undercover area with flowers all around that greeted us as first sight was such a warming welcome to the island.
We headed on around to this cache first, and with spot on coords the cache was quickly located. Log signed it was time to visit the very near by amenities - and I am so glad we did! I can’t say I’ve ever said this before about a public toilet, but they are so cute! It shows how much the people love and respect their island when this is what greets you.
A lovely start to a gorgeous day. Thanks for the cache Seeing_Spots.

Tftc, my sis here fr UK, got me into geo, will supply new log book soon

Visiting my sister who lives on Karragarra Island and introducing her to geocaching! Greetings from the UK. Great find, great island. TFTC

Jaydee123 - thanks for feedback. I will look at getting a new logbook there ASAP. Glad you like the spot.

Cheers (): )

Great little spot but needs new log book

Thanks all for coming to find this cache. I am glad most have enjoy the journey. Based on a few logbook comments I have updated the cache as condensation was causing issues in the original container and updated the description ... alas there is no symbol for "biting insects present" ... although this is really only a problem in the warm months (Nov-May).

Found it, got eaten alive by mosquitoes

What is a peach bottle?

Nice little find on our Island hopping day!!! Thank you

Finn N And Grandma TFTC 27Dec2018

Thanks, this was my first find

My partner and I had a great time trying to find it it was challenging trying to find
At night thank you for the challenge

Thanks for updates on condition of cache. I will look at addressing the water ingress problem in the coming weeks.
Cheers,
Seeing_Spots

Out with Fangsoki to clear the remainder of the island caches and after the long stroll to the cache on Russell my legs were feeling the effect of over 3 hours of walking but I was up for a bit more walking.

Fangsoki had been here in November but he left it up to me to locate the cache. A quick find. There was water in the cache but I was able to write in the log. I added Fangsoki's name for his find.

TFTC Seeing_Spots

Good trip on ferry and soon found cache

Karragarra is definitely my favourite of the bay islands.

Sweet_bee and I were checking out some of the islands and we decided to hot shoe shuffle up to this one.

I had no pen with me sadly - I was hoping there was a writing instrument in the cache.

We got to GZ and as soon as we stopped moving, mozzies started attacking us Not the fault of the cache owner mind you! Thankfully, I found the prize after a small hunt.

Well - there was a writing instrument - but it was an unsharpened pencil. I don't think I noticed the McDonald's pen.. Never mind - I know we found the cache. It was still a bit wet inside. I poured out the water and then re-hid the cache as it should be.

A nice little walk - and a great place for a cache. TFTC Zak and Seeing Spots

Quick easy find. 1st cache on island trip. Beautiful views and island

Thank you JazJazzyJaz for empting water out. I try to keep an regular eye on this cache but the additional assistance it muchly appreciated.

Was out and about on the bike today adding smiles on the map and today the target was find all the caches on the Southern Moreton Bay Islands .We rode from the jetty to GZ. It was a nice short ride and enjoyed the scenery along the way. After 5 minutes the cache was quickly found . Thanks for the cache Seeing Spots .Deserves a favourite point. TFTC!!!

A quick trip to Karra to grab some treasure. There was a bit of water in the container that I poured out, it was probably just condensation. Also paid a visit to the infamous public toilet, very amusing TFTC

Finally have mad it back here to get this one, mozzies are bad even with repellent they are ferocious. Tftc :^), beautiful island.

Time for a return trip to the islands with teamdfl, and again we are on the bikes [^]

Ferry ride number 2 and the real island hopping began in earnest. First, this cache on Karragarra Island. And it was a very pleasant ride to GZ, but here the mozzies were ferocious. Very glad to get a quick find. TFTC, Seeing_Spots.

Out for a day on the geocycle, island hopping with IolantheK today.

We had a nice quick find here thanks. We were also surprised at the lack of finds on this one.

What was even more surprising was the toilet block. Fanciest loo I have ever seen.

Ha ha ha - I have never needed to use the toilet so was unaware of the decorative details. Thanks for photo ... very amusing.

Today stortigirls (well me and one geoteen hostage) went on an Island hopping adventure with RhoBoCacher. We enjoyed the ferries, the lovely weather, discovering the Islands, and of course embarrassing the geoteen. Cache was found in good order and log signed. Tftc Seeing Spots

Out with Stortigirls and one geoteen and our plan was to go Island hopping why not???? It started off being overcast but turned into a very productive and beautiful day. It was nice walking around the Island and checking out the houses. I couldnt believe how peaceful it was on this Island. When we found this one we were surprised that we were 2nd to find, but omg the mozzies were bad they had a feast on us. TFTC

I did it in 20 mins between boats, but I knew where I was going & went straight there. My 2nd FTF on Karra, but I'm pretty sure I'm the only cacher living on the islands. Congrats on your 1st hide Seeing_Spots. TNLN
