Sorry but had enough of playing games. We have moved this cache 5 times and someone keeps tracking it down. Just removing the log and leaving the container. We have removed it. Maybe someone else will come up with something better.
Looks like someone is playing games. Will check it out. Looks like it is time to get rid of it.
Found it. Quick sit by the lake, then a sit in the shade to sign the log.

An easy one for our first Geocache. We were staying in the nearby caravan park so it was a nice easy stroll. Lovely park, didn't know it was there until now.
On our way back to our accommodation from Alex Forest. Easy find. Blinding sun! Strange cute duck birds with claws(see pic). Congrats to Woppex12 on 1st Geocache! TFTC.
Happy Anniversary Ben! 7 Years today.? It was a very busy Day for GeoFam4551. But still time to fit in quick geocache and admire the beautiful view on the way home... Easy find at the end of a great day.
Excited to be first to sign the new log & in the new location. Found after attending a 1st birthday party in the park. Very windy, so weather not very pleasant - swans mostly hiding. Cache tin lid came off when we opened it, a bit rusty - may need a new one soon.

Our last day on the Sunshine Coast before we head back down to freezing cold Canberra, so we decided to do a few quick caches. We parked fairly close to this one and made a quick find. There was absolutely nothing in the cache at all, so we found a scrap of paper to use as a log. TNLNSL TFTC
Nice easy find, brought along some family members to introduce them to the fun! Lovely location for a picnic.
We found this cache with no difficulty. The last time we were at this site it was a dismal looking place, now it is a delightful park. I was surprised it was not getting more use on such a lovely day. The ducks were keen to make our aquantance.
I had found this cache the day before but due to no log book couldn't sign my name. I returned today and placed a sheet of paper in the cache as a log. Hope this helps. Great spot for a cache, the munchkins loved playing in the nearby park and it was nice and close to the hotel we were staying in.

We had a wonderful day of caching in this vibrant and scenic part of Queensland. We loved the Sunshine Coast when we were here back in 2007 and it is still as lovely especially on a bright sunny day like today. We enjoyed finding this well hidden cache. We had to replace the log as the original had gone missing.
Thanks to Green Team 2.

REplaced the log with a temp one as we were passing. Why the log would be removed is hard to work out. Replaced cache where it should be. Happy Caching.
Nothing in this cache except small piece of paper with one entry yesterday.TFTC.
Staying at the conference centre; had to wander down and grab this one. As my iPhone got closer, it was trying to tell me to swim out to the island! Thank goodness for the hint and common sense. I found it immediately without having to look down which is always good. All fine here though it seems perhaps some muggles have also signed the log. TFTC!

Spotted GZ across the pond.Lovely park and 1st cache for our long wknd on coast.Lots of lovely wildlife TFTC
Quick find - I hope nobody was watching out the many windows.. On this rainy day there was noone else here.
Had a very friendly water bird that was certain I had something to offer it...after a peck on my hhand, it seemed to be dissappointed the hand was empty and it left us to our real goal.

I downloaded this GC to my Garmin last year, looked for a while and we couldn' find it, so checked some more logs on my mobile phone and realised the co-ordinates had been changed. I put the new co-ordinates in, then we found it straight away, although we had to wait for the muggles to move.
Nice easy find in a pleasant park while taking a scenic drive along the Sunshine Coast coastline.
Been quite a few years since I have been to this grass field, and was pleasantly surprised to see a duck pond and great landscaping. Quick find, even with lots of muggles in the park. Easy to stealth here with the kids. TFTC

Went down today to fix this cache as per previous log. Once we found the cache with was laying in the open in the fork of a tree and not under the railing where it should be we found the cache to be all good. We have moved it to a new location. S 26 40.060, E 153 06.302. We also removed the TB or what was left of it. Only the tag was remaining.
Lots of damage from the high amount of rain so couldn't find. Far to messy and dangerous for kids to tramp around.
We didn't find it due to a muggle who had set themself up nearby without intention of moving on. There is only so subtle you can be with kids in tow. We will save this for the next time we visit the area!
A lovely and quiet park!! I really like pond with lotus!!
Found this one in afternoon while driving in the sunshine coast area with friends~

Nice quick find in a fairly obvious spot. Third of four for a lazy Saturday afternoon.

I was sitting back signing the log when a couple of kids decided to dangle a bit of fishing line near gz. Fortunately they moved further on and i was able to return the cache when thier attention was focused on a nibble on the line. TFTC.
Looked for a while to no avail, then noticed the disabled status. Found the ?munzee over the bridge.
Went and cleaned crap out of cache container. Many thanks to the cachers who replaced the log. All good to go.
met a nice cacher from germany, now have a great idea for a cache container.

Will replace log shortly. Someone has stuffed ribbons and a battery into the eclipse container so the lid wouldn't shut so all was wet.
Found it!! Lovely park tucked away in Alex. Unable to sign log as it was way too wet. TFTC
There is a Munzee a little stroll away

Bowling anyone? This is a lovely place l lit up at night. Took a little to find but we did with a hep of a torch TFTC.
We were visiting the Sunshine Coast to find some frogs taking part in Geocaching Australia's Leapfrog Caching Game http://www.cachinggames.com/leapfrog/ and decided to look for new caches in the area while in the vicinity. We took a short walk along the path and saw an interesting bronze sculpture of egrets taking flight. The cache was easily found and we were off again to hunt down some more frogs. TFTC
