Had to hit this early in the morning with my wife Geomum007, while most of Gladstone were recovering from their night before. Sometimes the obvious is not so obvious and visa versa added new paper in a plastic bag as log was full. TFTC

Hi with a little help from previous logs finally found. My first find in Gladstone on a fly in work trip. I like to try and add a geocache smiley to my travel map any time I can find one nearby. All work and no fun makes a boring person.

Velk cesta do Ocenie - den 30 - Gladstone, Queensland (20 km)Tak jsem na cest u 30 dn ! Docela to uteklo, ale nava se hls. Dnes byl tedy jen servisn a odpoinkov den. Hned rno jsem hodila prdlo do praky a nsledn do suiky a pak se nasndala a la si znovu lehnout. Klid na lku a do obda se vyplatil a moc dobe jsem si odpoala. K obdu jsem dojedla nu ze verejka a po kv a kontrole email jsem vyrazila prozkoumat Gladstone. Je to hlavn docela velk pstav, ale centrum je na kopeku nad zlivem a malebn. Ze zlivu je vhled na ostrovy jin sti Velkho barirovho tesu. Krsn upravenou maj nben promendu i vechny ostatn okoln parky. Taky marina je pkn a ist. Vude sochy a infrastruktura pro lidi. V parcch piknikov stoly i grily, toalety, pitn voda a fontny, ve kterch se dcka koupou. Je tu i pl, ale nikoho jsem ve vod nevidla. Za to parky byly pln mstnch, kte trvili slunenou sobotu venku a mli tu opravdu bohat prosteno. V centru nebyla ani noha a ve zaven, tak byl odlov keek velmi jednoduch. Posbrala jsem skoro ve kolem stedu msta a promendy krom jedn keky, kde pmo na n sedla pan a sledovala film na mobilu. Tak to se mi ekat nechtlo. V italsk kavrn jsem si dala kvu a zmrzlinu a v podveer udlala nkup v supermarketu a jela na svj pokoj s balkonem. ba zatm nepila.Today I have a rest after 29 days on the road. I slept until the lunch, wash my cloths and than I went to see Gladstone. A relatively nice port town with many beautiful parks, where the locals spent a sunny Saturday picnic. I spent a pleasant afternoon hunting for caches and I didn't find just one where a lady was sitting on it and reading. Thanks for the cache and greetings from Czech republic.

A fav point for the hide and hint!After QOGM 2023 in Longreach, TBU went on a round trip via Mount Isa, Burketown, Karumba, Ravenshoe, Atherton Tablelands down to Innisfail to Townsville. Now we are heading towards South back home, still refreshing our memories and collecting smileys. It was a nice variety of hides and we bumped into couple of cachers on the way. Thanks for this cache, Bundyrumandcoke

1D/1T caches are very fast becoming my least favourite cache type, marginally better than EarthCaches. In many ways, this didn't enhance my view being relatively well hidden in a potentially high muggle area. Thankfully though, a huge read of the hint on a Wednesday evening with the Matildas playing the Poms let me have the run of the place and that eventually had me with the stash in hand at 20:30.

TNLNSL, although a couple of our geocoins had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks Bundyrumandcoke.

**PS:** The log is mighty full and might need replacing very soon. Also, the lid appears to be long gone but I guess that the cache's location means it's safe from the elements.
 
30-Jul-23
searched for a while, pretty certain at the right place with the given hints, we decided to move on to another one before losing too much daylight

Staying in Gladstone after spending a couple of days on Curtis Island with the brumbies, curlews and kangaroos - as part of our 'north for warmer weather' trip (North East Vic to Central Qld).

So camping at Awonga Dam for a few days means I can get into Gladstone and do a little caching and some shopping. There are a few particular caches in town that I saw and some fun looking hides.
While driving around town I am impressed on how Gladstone has “cleaned “itself up. Being here some years back, I thought I would never come here again, but I am very impressed with the town and the friendly people here. The new areas and the attractions around town, very nice, thank you.

Seems Gladstone has a lot of “older” caches so I was glad to be in town cleaning up what I could.

All good with this cache, I signed the log and replaced the cache as found. An easy find, then I was on my way to the next. Thanks for placing this one here.

Great Northern escape 2022 Day 124. Gladstone Day 1. I spent the day caching in the Gladstone region, first I headed down to Tannum Sands, then I looped back into Gladstone via another road and did some suburban caches before heading into the port and marina fore shore area to finish my day off.

It is so sad to see the impact of less trade on businesses. None of the shops along the side of the road with the cache were open in the early afternoon. However, this helped me as I could poke my hand in places and find the cache, not quite where I expected it, but close enough.

Thanks for the cache Bundyrumandcoke
