Only our second cache finding experience with 2 young boys, we loved getting down and dirty before a swim lesson,a full carlton cold but will be back with more time to spare to find cache???
I see that we are not the only ones to post a DNF. Looks a bit ominous? I gave the area a pretty thorough check but of course I still may have missed it. TFTC anyway.
Scratch round like a rabbit but no luck with this one try another day TFTC cheers
Great hint went straight to cache.. Easy find. TFTH

Decided to tackle this one again while in the area - brought my prodding stick this time. However it was not needed as I soon spotted the cache safe and sound. It is in good condition. TFTC diesel48
Found at 0958 with Marg. A quick find in the first place I looked. Cache OK and dry. TFTC.
Quick find once at GZ, no bands, a few swimmers and a lovely caching day. T4T$ SL
Found quickly - no band playing here today!
Many muggles cooling off in the pool.
Thanks Diesel48.

Found an un-capped needle at GZ and that was enough for me I will return when I have my trusty pole. TFTH
Gps spot on
As with previous log ground very boggy around area
Best to walk as close to hide as possible as not far of road and gardener has mowed close to area for easier access .
Wish we had taken our own advice as we got really soggy shoes retrieving this one

Found on the first day of the Brisbane floods 2011. It wasn't raining but I got soaked from the sodden greenery and the ground was so wet I had to do some acrobatics and balancing to get to the GZ without getting wet shoes.
Thanks Diesel48 and also Bristracker for drying it out.

Did some maintenance on this one after finding it damp. Dried out cache container, put log in new bag so it should be good for a while now.
This one, we found almost instantly with the skill of Aussie Liahona. Cute things to choose from inside as well
Took: kookuburra
Left: 2x marbles

Found in the company of a friend that I was introducing to the world of Geocaching. There were no bands playing today. TFTC
Had an early business meeting and left home early "to beat the traffic". Coincidently had a loaded GPS on me! TFTH
After a couple of DNFs it was good to get a nice easy quick one. Just wharves needed. TFTC.
Found in company of adult children, swap bird for a pig. Easy find, thanks very much.
Excellent hide after the geokids spotted the odd one out! Dropped off Woody the Geoadventurer trackable. Have a great trip Woody!

#4356 Found this cache as part of a recent brissy raid along with Steeba and Big Matt. This was a great use of stealth, as the gardeners did their stuff so did I without them even knowing.
Thanks

Found this cache with steeba and The Rats on our 2010 Brisbane Invasion Trip. This was our 4152nd overall find.
Found at about 1:41 PM. Parked right in front of it and made a stealthy find.
Thanks to diesel48 for the cache.

Found with The Rats and Big Matt as The Gangsters on our Brisbane invasion trip.
The garden maintenance men were out in force today with their blowers so we used the cover of the car to assist with this one. A nice spot with the pool and the park. TFTC!

This was cache # 10 of 41 on another hard day at the office. As soon as I arrived at this location I was reminded of my good friend La Kedi who has been involved in this type of band. My thanks to Diesel48 for the cache.
Found. Last in the day after a massive day of caching. Saw something that just wasn't quite right as soon as I walked in. TFTC
TFTC Diesel48.
Number 399 (I think) and last for the day.
Number 400 will require a kayak according to Fangsoki.
While signing the log one of those pesky cache dwellingbfrogs hopped on in.

Great clue ,walked straight to it ,if you have kids ,please watch out for broken bottles and needles
Found by Mary & David at 1345. Really enjoying all these open green areas. A quick find with nobody else about. Our thanks again to Diesel48.
Had tried to find this one before and it was where it should have been, I just didn't "dig" far enough. Was glad to get it this time around. Left a couple of small items. TFTC.
Found this one tonight on our way home from picking up my niece in Brisbane. It was dark and raining so there were no muggles about. Found it quickly with the hint in only the small amount of time it took me to walk in. It sure helps that no one was about and we didn't have to look innocent. Phew! TNLNSL. Thanks for the cache Diesel48.
Proved a bit difficult at first but got there in the end. Could imagine this one could be quite a challenge on a hot weekend. TFTC TNLNSL
Glad to find somebody else has missed it. All the muggles were at a swim meet next door. I got down on all fours and looked around but couldn't see it and ants were crawling on me. Will take a Lucky Geocacher with me next time, someone like Aussie Liahona, to find it quick smart. Also noticed that the pool is named after a very promising young swimmer who died before he could reach his potential.
Found it late PM today (17:16)
Can't believe I have missed it so many times before now that I have found it
Today was a nice easy find while trying to clean up a few caches that have been eluding me in my local area...

I remember coming here as a kid for swimming lessons - things have changed quite a bit since then...discussed with Mr Agap2 as to the best approach for this one too hot & too many muggles to hang around waiting for too long, I took a dive in and scrambled around handing the cache to Mr Agap2 to sign, replaced quickly TFTC
Arrived here with Ms Wig on a very hot day, therefore many many muggles about. Approaching GZ, we had to come up with some kind of plan. Ms Wig decided the low approach would be best while I keep watch. She had the cache in hand quickly, so did some quick signing and returned the cache safely.
Thanks Diesel48
Thanks Diesel48
Found with Dannza. Had cabin fever from all the rain so went caching today. Nice clean little park and no troubles finding this one. TN and left yellow smiley slinky. TFTC
Very quiet today not many wet muggles around but I am sure it will liven up in this area soon. TFTC
On our way to the Sunshine Coast for a couple of days and grabbed this one on the way through. SL TFTC
Found with relative ease, which was lovely after searching drains at the last cache! Took the USA coin. TFTC ='.'=
This was our first ever cache and was a reasonably easy find. We found it in about 10 minutes and were free to look in peace.
Great hiding place!
TFTC!

No one was in the park so I was able to search in peace, but I still kept my head down . Found in good condition, loved the placement.

Only a few aquatic muggles in the area this morning leaving me to hunt in peace when they enterred the nearby pool. Didn't take long to have the container in hand and it was back to the Gunniemobile for business. I have found a few Diesel48 caches over the last couple of Sundays... WIll now have to check how many more there are out there...
Cheers Diesel48

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga at 11:20am. Easy find with the hint but a good place for a cache. There was a school swimming carnival going on next door and muggles were coming out for a smoke. In: TB Moose Tracks Out: TB TFTC

My luck was good at this one. Found it within minutes of arrival. TN/LN/SL and sneaked out before anyone could ask what I was up to.
Nope, not found by me or Mrs Bundy today. Searched fairly extensively with no luck.

Hey Claeton, maybe the GPS knows where the cache is, lol.......... an easy find after avoiding the wildlife, TFTC SL.
A joint expedition with Smeeagain and thinking it was somewhere on the bandstand I started searching until smeeagain tapped me on the shoulder and pointed out we were a good twenty mtrs away it was found quickly despite several spiders stationed around it

Found at 10pm. Not a soul around so it was an non-interrupted search except from the calls from the tennis courts.
It still took a me a couple of circuits of the object before I located the cache. TNLN.

Had a quick man's look for this cache but the gardner was brush cutting on the other side of the park. It was just too hard to have a serious look.
Entered into the book of LEDGIN'S. Out caching after being crook for a week. #14 of 16 today. Found quickly. TNLN. SL. TFTC.
A few old drunken muggles here today ,they didn't seem to be to interested in what we were doing.

Now I hate to blow my own trumpet, but I found the cache quicker than you can say 'Glenn Miller Orchestra'
