Too wet to write on

Excellent hide but log is soaking wet and we had no pen so hoping the photo will do TFTC

Found on day one of my Townsville trip. I could certainly feel the warmer climate up here, but some of the views around town are phenomenal, the water is really clear in parts!Maybe I was lucky to find it as quickly as I did, but a cool cache either way! Thanks for the fun!

Found it!

Coming from the ferry there was a little bit time left to explore the park. Found it easily. Thnx!

Very clever Found with Juju54 TFTC

Very fun creative hiding place

Very nice cache, my first in australia

This was a cool hide. SL and RAF. Found while in the marina. TFTC

First Townsville cache. We're here for a week and our boat is at the marina while we are away for a bit. Cool hide. Could be tough for a beginner but we spotted it right away.

I have no idea how the log goes missing in this one but its not the first time. Added a new one. Happy hunting.

Found it. Very clever Cant sign as log book missing

QPG!!! Log missing!!!

Brilliant! Found in about 5 secs but only by reading past logs & expecting some out of the box thinking by burgo - and he didnt disappoint. My favourite type of caching - FP!! Thanks for the fun & TFTC!0

What a cache! I absolutely love burgo78s hides. Theyre so fun and creative! Tftc.

Cool how creative people are!

TFTC! Our youngest found it in no time!

Sneaky sneaky! Took a minute but power of observation helped us in the end. *The generic bit for this trip*We are on now on our way south after heading north for warmer weather. From Cooktown back to Notth East Victoria, weaving inland and to the coast, caching as we go. No real plans, just taking each day as it comes and enjoying the adventure in our converted ambulance. Thanks to all COs for placing and maintaining caches for our enjoyment.

Out and about today exploring Townsville with Grannan55 and Geodogs. What a beautiful park. Lest we forget. Thank you to our defence personnel for serving our wonderful country. Thank you for placing this cache here for me to find. All good here. Now, onto the next one for the day. TFTC

Fantastic little hide.

Two os always better than oneJabs

I checked on this one after the recent DNF's and have now replaced it.Happy hunting.

Had a good look. No luck. Beautiful park

I have seen this o e before, is it possible it's been removed?

A quick park and grab. Had my eyes on this one for a while, but there have always been to many people around but today it is mine

Very awesome

Clever little hide!

Visiting from Nova Scotia, Canada, cruising on HAL. Am enjoying Townsville, walking around town and The Strand. TFTC

Great cache. Thanks. Greetings from Holland.

Good hide, took 3 times to find

A wait for the ferry gave time to find this catch. TFTC!

Found it with MushMushMoose on a cute lil beach walk

Sneaky but found very quickly. Found with spakkles a few hours before he plays a gig

On a quick week in Townsville to see the grandkids, JSando and I carved out an hour to cache. A lovely quick find here. TFTC

Found with Carkisser.Parked nearby, soon had cache in hand.TFTC .

Tftc! Very clever! Love from the uk

I wasnt sure if I should mess with the structure cause I was afraid Ill break something. Maybe next time pop a little geocaching logo on the thing so the cachers know theyre not breaking any law haha. Thank you!

Nice quick find. Beautiful walk.TFTC

Nifty!

Clever hide quite tricky, hint : look to the bright side

Apologies for the late log here (07.01.24) but I've had a busy time since getting back to the UK.Last one in Townsville for me, I think, as I was close to getting back to my hired car and hitting the road. It'd been a blast. Thanks for making this a 'no drama' cache, even for finding on a busy day.TNLN-TFTC!SP (UK) on an epic trek right around the world.

On our way back to the marina after our tour guide sister dropped us off opposite ANZAC park, I managed to veer our path past this gz. Having a quick look around and noticing the hint and difficulty, something seemed promising so headed toward it.
Sure enough it was as I thought & the cache was soon revealed. Clever craftiness!
Certainly a very picturesque park and surrounding location. Very handy to our home at the marina for the week.

Surprisingly quiet here today, which was nice, and I could search at leisure. Soon spotted the prize, and prised it open to sign, replaced as found.
We Will Remember Them.

A Saturday off before some more tasks tomorrow so keen to make the most of it. Got dropped off at 0900 at Jezzine Barracks and wandered up and down (and under!) The Strand and covered just over 18kms on foot before investing in a taxi back 'home'. A productive day, though not massive numbers, and a few Ad Lab stages, but enough to keep ticking over and seeing more of Townsville's charms. Thanks to all COs for their efforts.

Cool. Thanks for the cache.
RVCL.

Great find! Perfect camouflage for the kids!

TFTC

Very good hide, was about to walk away, when I read one more log and thought that must hint at one of these… ta da (fav from me, it would have taken some work to sneak the cache into place)
Thanks for the cache and new log.

Thanks to BenM70 the cache has a new log.
Happy hunting.

Nice love a cache with history
Can confirm log is very full

Today we were searching for the Traditional **Anzac Park & Grab**

Thank to the Hint and the good coordinates the little box was found quickly!
After signing the logbook there is a new smile on our geocaching map!

At least we would like to take this opportunity to thank burgo78 for creating and maintaining this Traditional.

Je profite de mon voyage a travers le monde et de mon temps libre pour faire du Geocaching.

En mode road trip, je sillonne quantité de beaux pays pour découvrir où re-découvrir pleins d'endroits. Des paysages à couper le souffle, de l'histoire, de l'architecture,  de la gastronomie.

Les jours se suivent et ne se ressemblent pas.

Je fais la connaissance de gens vraiment accueillants et sympathiques.

Si je pouvais avoir autant de found-it que de kilomètre au compteur, je serais vraiment ravi.

Je cherche et je trouve toutes sortes de caches sur le chemin de mes pérégrinations.

De toutes les tailles,  de toutes le cotations  et de différents types. Avec des succès,  de la réflexion, des difficultés.  Tout ce qui fait que le GC est vraiment une activité à part. Et qui pour ma part occupe une place importante dans ma vie.

Merci à tous les owners pour leur recherches, le travail qu'ils effectuent, les maintenances.


English version


I take my journey through the wolrd and of my free time to geocaching.

In road trip fashion, I travel many beautiful country to discover where rediscover full of places.  Landscapes breathtaking, history, architecture, gastronomy.

The days are not alike.

I meet really welcoming and friendly people.

If I could have as many found-it that kilometer counter, I would be really delighted.

I seek and I find all kinds of caches on the way to my wanderings.

Of all sizes, of all the quotes and types.  With success, reflection, difficulties.  Anything that makes the GC is really a separate activity.  And that for me is an important part in my life.

Thank you to all the owners for their research, the work they do, maintenance



Spanish version


Aprovecho mi viaje por mundo y mi tiempo libre para hacer Geocaching.

En el modo de viaje por carretera, viajo a través de muchos países hermosos para descubrir dónde redescubrir muchos lugares.  Impresionantes paisajes, historia, arquitectura, gastronomía.

Los días se suceden y no son iguales.

Conozco gente muy acogedora y amable.

Si pudiera tener tantos kilómetros encontrados como kilómetros en el reloj, sería muy feliz.

Busco y encuentro todo tipo de alijos en el camino de mis peregrinaciones.

De todos los tamaños, de todas las clasificaciones y de diferentes tipos.  Con aciertos, reflexión, dificultades.  Todo lo que hace del GC verdaderamente una actividad aparte.  Y que por mi parte ocupa un lugar importante en mi vida.

Gracias a todos los propietarios por su investigación, el trabajo que hacen, los mantenimientos.

Soon many ants

This was a great cache that did not disappoint. After signing the log I had to wait for some muggles to move on. I then replaced it as found. I have awarded a FP due to the creativity of the cache. Thanks for placing and maintaining another great hide Burgo78

Found quickly

Together with my favorite geocacher Milonguera we traveled to Australia We went to Melbourne via Singapore and from there we explore 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 to. We traveled north and than east to Townsville.

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.

**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 burgo78 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.

»Anzac Park & Grab« (3.5/1.0)
*Dies ist mein Cache Nummer 20056.*

Viele Grüße von XETRO aus Britz im Süden Berlins.

Found plenty of Labs whilst holidaying in Townsville, but had to get at least 1 physical cache too! TFTC

Whilst on holiday in Townsville we had to make sure we got at least 1 cache! Clever hide

Easy cache but a lot of ants

TFTC! The whole family really enjoys this park so it was great to find a cache here (once we realised there was one here).

TFTC

Found this one on a caching outing in Townsville, Mr Searchwise015 enjoyed the Dr Who reference. TFTC SL

Found GZ (and the ants!) But couldn't find the log! Very clever hiding space

A clever little hide in a peaceful little park, presumably a lot more peaceful that the last moments of many of these people inscribed in stone nearby. The Remembrance day setup is in place ready for tomorrow with a guard circling around but I’ve manage to avoid being spotted by him.
I wonder how many bisons this ate. Certainly has plenty of foot traffic and a good half century of Favourite Points. Cache found, signed and reset. Nicely done
I would have been my Aunts birthday tomorrow. Maybe I’ll pop into an RSL as Megs often did for a meal as her Mum served in WW2. I went to get a photo of the eternal flame but once again the phone died in the arse during one of these write ups. Instead I think I’ll take a photo of a bit of stencil art and maybe share what is likely a munzee code. What a scourge.

A nice night grab. TFTC

Such a cheeky one had a look for this one tftc!

Tftc! Great hide

Out on a maintenance run with burgo so this was quickly discovered.
Very nice job.

Too many ants!! Maybe next time.

On a maintenance run and checked this one. No ants today but the co Rainer wasn’t in its correct position. It has now been reset as intended.
Happy hunting.
