eauman_oz I found your cache Coin Cache @ Park Lake on 19/12/2023, 11:55am. This is my find 6303 and find # 12 today. A quick and easy find with the help of the hint. Placed a sheet of paper in a snap lock bag to sign. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN
Went with our team MillaM2011 and JustTheBestEver2 and me when and found a couple TFTC
Couldnt find couldnt see anything on the wall or up the top - came out with nothing unfortunately
That was a close one. I needed a cache to keep the streak alive and we were worried I wouldn't find this one.
This was the closest one to where we are staying. Came out as soon as had finished work hoping it would be still light! Gee it gets dark early here. In the end had to use our phone torches and widened our search. We then breathed a sigh of relief. Tftc

This area must be famous for its rock walls or something.
Third cache of the morning involving rock walls…the rock wall won this round. Rock walls: 2; me: 1.
TFTH!

It was the very last day of holidays for both Cosmonaut97 and me, so we decided a day of play was in order before heading back to work. A couple of plans were hatched then we chose one. The one we chose was to hunt out some of the older caches far over the Southside.
Our day was getting on, and we were at least now kind of on the return journey - there were still a number of stops to make along the way of course. This was one of them.
We parked the car in a nice shady spot and made the short wander to GZ where the likely spot was quickly spied. Lifting the cover the cache was revealed. However the logsheet is falling apart, the cache could definitely use a new one.

This weekend, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I had a trip down the Gold Coast, comprised of geocaching Events, a family catchup, a Wave Break Island kayak paddle, and a Nerang mountain bike session ride.
Today, I had a few hours looking after baby Warren, so we spent the morning with a Nerang walk along the Nerang River, whilst also completing the [Nerang Walkabout](https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/bb9d36b8-68c6-4c49-854f-881baf76da8a) Adventure Lab. Then whilst baby napped, we took a drive south to Worongary and completed the *Worongary Wandering* circuit. It was then time to attend the [Nerang Num-Num](https://coord.info/GCA29Y4) Event for a lunch bite, before driving home via a Q1000 oldie at Pacific Pines.
This was our final cache find for the day, as we weren't too far away from this oldie cache, and it didn't look too difficult to grab. So after pulling up beside this cache, it took 5-10 minutes searching around GZ, before spotting the cache a little away from where I was initially searching. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks eauman_oz for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance. It was nice to have found this oldie 04/2008 hidden cache, of which is one of Queensland's 1000 oldest yet active geocaches.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

A nice quick find.
I actually tripped over the cache1

The Überwald version of Twurp's Peerage. Probably a lot longer, however. Vampires have pages and pages each, as their names are so long. It's something to do during the loooong winters in Überwald.
The Lady Margolotta has over four pages detailing her titles.

Out for the day with CaptainVimes. I think I’ve been here before but couldn’t search due to muggles. We made a quick find today. Thanks for the cache
We only had a small window for finding caches today. This was the last of three finds before our emergency appointment at Dan Murphy’s for a type of consultation that only he can provide.
We had a night away at the RACV resort on the cards and with only a warm bottle of bubbles to show for it we needed an emergency rectification, stat! No matter how much you want the laws of physics to change, there isn’t a single freezer in a hotel in the whole country that can chill your wine in an acceptable time frame. tftc

After a great big hike yesterday, and staying overnight up the mountain - today was more about drivebys and urban caching. This one was on my radar due to it's age, and was a quick find at GZ today.
Thanks eauman_oz for entertaining me at this location.

On this day in cricket in 2002 "A century before lunch for Inzamam-ul-Haq. At the Harare Sports Club, Pakistan had not taken advantage of Zimbabwe's loose bowling in the first innings, so Inzamam made up in the second, plundering 112 from 107 balls with 20 fours. His century, though, came in an extended 150-minute session, after bad light had shortened the previous day's play. When on 32, Inzamam became the second Pakistani after Javed Miandad to pass 6000 Test runs. The Test, which Pakistan won by 119 runs, also marked the debuts of Kamran Akmal and Blessing Mahwire."
3rd cache for the day, last find for the day and the 3rd cache near a rock wall. Nice and easy find, but no coins. Cache was in good condition.

Love this geocache. The best find I have ever done. Left tons of old and foreign coins. Including valuable silver Morgan Dollar coin. TFTC love it!
Had a meeting at Hope Island and some spare time so grabbed this cache. Nice little park. TFTC eauman_oz
Until quite recently I left a foreign coin in each cache I visited... I’ve put a hold on that because of another user, but that’s another story...
I like the idea behind your cache so left some Irish and French coin... tftc...

Been meaning to do this cache forever as near my home! But always lots of muggles! Today with gym not reopened due to covid19 it was muggle free! Thanks for cache and unfortunately no foreign coin on me but left a small Aussie one that would be foreign to a foreigner! TFTCSL
I found this easily just before dusk. I took the old, went container and left a new one, fresh log and trades in its place. The new container is exactly the same as the one and hidden in the same spot. No maintenance needed. CO can log it done. Find #1999, which is the year I got married and gave birth to my son who is about to turn 20!
Please come and fix your cashe. It’s in poor condition. It was out in the open when I found it. Improvised with the log and re hid it as best I could.
Not hard to find if you forget about the hint, GPS puts you right on it. Needs maintenance, paper is waterlogged. Tftc
Cache was soaked and paper to wet to write on and no replacement paper with me, will return when maintenance is done
Going to event in Helensvale so decided to some around there TFTCoz_scotts #1018 D3
Down for the day visiting Mum nearby, and found some time to grab a few caches while in the area. Oh boy, the carpark was full with swimming lesson muggles, so I needed to ing and stealth to get to GZ, where a quick find was made.

TFTC... 9/10/17. Tough Mothers 5 today, looking for smileys. This was one, just about walked on it.
Found with lisylou, bennyboppers, jemillalucy and REMSJW. Also known as the Tough Mothers and sign in as tm x 5.
Quick find with the tough mothers today, signed in as TMx5. Found after checking the obvious but soon realised we needed to look elsewhere. Tftc
After a very long search with uksquirrel, I finally found you sneaky cache. Log and container very moist. Log signed.

Very Quickly thank goodness, too many people starting to arrive for swimming lessons
I love rock walls! And after WASTING a lot of time on the wall I found the cache
The log was very wet and I was unable to dry it out today. Have placed a temporary log in a new bag.

Out with stortigirls, working on her unique 25 D/T in a day challenge. This cache was quickly locatted and the log signed. TFTC
A quick find as we were coming to the end of my 25 Unique DT in a day challenge. Thankfully a quick find here. Dropped off a geocoin as it seemed appropriate. Tftc eauman oz!
A return visit, and a few laps of GZ, and we finally had our eyes on the prize. We have left a New Zealand 10c piece (sorry, it was all we had). TFTC
As luck would have it, a muggle sitting in a car, looking directly at GZ Will make a return trip
Great location. Not too hard to find at all. Hint - it is not in the rock wall!
We are back at the Gold Coast for a week, visiting family & time to get away to do some geocaching.
A few coins in the cache. We did not make a withdraw from here.
Thanks for placing this cache eauman_oz

I asked him what the clue was he said "this rock shouldn't be hard to find "
I said there's a rock right there he lifts it up and there it was #noeffortneeded

Hi there, FTC! Logs are slightly wet after the heavy rain over the last weekend - may need some drying out. Thanks cookiesgc
Good spot! GPS a little funny with all the tall trees. Not where I originally thought it may be. A little foraging will help
Couldn't find, hint didn't help but will come back another time and search again.
The cache was an easy find but is now the star attraction in the middle of an ants nest. I flicked it away and got most of the ants off so that I could sign the log and replaced it as found.
Awesome cache. Geo hubby found his 2nd cache . This is the third time we have looked for this cache and I am no so glad we came back today and tried again. Another on our list. I left South Arican Rand. Tyfc
