Spongebob Gaven, Queensland, Australia
By hallfamily7 on 25-Jan-09. Waypoint GC1M2RT

Checked this one before we left for the uk and it has gone. Now unable to replace sorry hallfamily.

No luck for us today either, maybe a check to see if it's still there is needed.

No spongebob for me, the object mentioned in the hint looked like it had been destroyed. This one may need checking.

Not Today

Great park,great cahe,great log.Thanks for bringing us here.

Yay haven't gone for a while. Maxmanus.

Luckily the playground was empty. It was not the place for a single male cacher to be found lurking.

Found the cache took a TB and left the Eiffel tower and got out of there fast.

Strolled up to the GZ and found a purse that someone had removed the contents on and threw into the bush, TFTC Left TB took brush to make room for the TB

Returned with a friend after an earlier attempt and we found it nice and quickly. Good spot, thanks for the cache!

Just had time to fit this in after a day north, quick find with the clues. T - Sticker, L - Bouncy Ball. SL TFTC.

Found by Mary & David at 1700. Returned after an earlier visit and the muggle family had gone. We are constantly impressed by the facilities for children. A quick find without the onlookers. Our thanks yet again to hallfamily7.

Sadly our first DNF. Trying for our 3rd find of the day after a day out. Unfortunately, 3 tired kids and grumpy parents didn't make for the best hunters. Left it for another time.

A Quick stop before heading to Movie World for the day. TFTC

Another post-work / pre-darkness caching adventure.

With a few minutes of daylight left I headed over from "Kids Cache 2" for another find.

I headed straight for the obvious hiding spot but no luck. After reading the clue I searched the same spot again and looked for other similar spots nearby. After deciding that the clue was not going to help I started to search again. A few minutes later I found the hiding spot.

I left a girly travel bug thingy and signed the log book.

After successfully remaining dry yesterday finding "Emerald Wetlands" (GC20JCG) and stating "Thankfully the 'wet lands' were pretty dry and my shoes were happy to remain dry on a cache hunt" the geo-caching Gods got their own back. On the way back down the hill I stepped in a patch of mud and slid a couple of meters on my side. (Luckily the little yellow Garmin is waterproof)

Ha! Raajy Roo, we thought you may have been cacher's when you pulled up! We were having a great time visiting from the Blue Mountains (NSW) with our QLD family.
You're right, that's exactly what caching is all about - seeing new places and good clean fun.
**Future searchers please be aware that we found a couple of discarded snake-skins near GZ. Please be mindful in your searching - particularly in these warmer months**

Went to drop off "S" coin called Gustaf, but when we arrived we could see some fellow geocachers searching (Gustaf will need to travel a little longer in our Hilux not a Volvo or Saab, sorry). It was so nice to see family and friends all searching together, this is what geocaching is about! Left after a quick stroll with hubby and geobubby off to Kidz Cache 2 where I found TRAVEL CAT! YAY I also have to ad that the finder was so pleased he found it, I could hear him say, "I found it!", all the way from the carpark LOL! Hope they had fun too!

Over reading a clue beforehand does not assist in a mind set for an obvious find. It is much easier to just search for the cache

Fore!!

Drove right by this one on the way to a failed FTF attempt . Not to worry, I still found it and then this cache. Signed the log, grabbed the "Dream Weaver" geocoin and left "Bruce" TB. You guessed it - he's a shark. Easy find and a nice place to have a bit of lunch. TFTC.

Found this morning as a reward to myself for driving up this way to drop my granddaughter to school. It was getting extremely warm as it's to be a hot day so the heat took it's toll on me as I climbed to this cache. TFTC Hall Family. Found in good condition. Took: beads and Left: Dream Weaver geocoin for the next to find to help it on it's travels.

Thanks Halls for the cache. Found today while out on a hot and windy day on the Gold Coast. Took: car and Left: brush TFTCSL

I had already decided that I was going to lay in bed and do nothing all day
I was definitely not going to find a cache. Especially this one
But wait !!
It's Opposite Day

After visiting Patrick earlier, I continued my jellyfishing expedition and headed off to find the ringleader himself
Does it get any better ?
TFTC and jellyfishing [^]

A nice quick find today, thanks hallfamily7

Nice easy one to make us 2 from 4 for the afternoon. Geobub a little over it by then so it was time to head home! TNLN TFTC

Nice easy find to end the day with, unfortunately the pencil was broken, signed log with trusty pen from my bag, took pencil back to the car to give it a bit of a sharpen up & add another pencil from my stash just in case

Very good heandle area , lovely day.... GRR GRR few birds try pull my hair!!!!!!!!!!!!

Found today at 10.35am, and we,too, made this a fleeting visit due to a little diving bird v close to the cache! We had no Idea what the bird was, but had feathers and a large beak and got a little too close for comfort. Quickly SL. Took Puzzle.Left pot of beads. TFTC!

This was good until a black faced cuckoo shrike asked us to leave. While Gert was sitting on a log, a fine Weimaraner bitch came walking with her muggle owner. Quickly shoving cache under log (while the Weimaraner sniffed around it) Gert displayed her knowledge of ornithology to muggle (by identifying the bird) whereupon said bird flew in Gert's face!!! Poor mother bird must be thinking she's built her nest in Muggle Central. Had a good swap but it was too big. TNLN. SL

Wow! A TB and a GeoCoin in the same cache! So excited I had to come home and log them fast. Wished I'd had one to deposit but will go back before long. Left a silver chain, a nice new car, and little candles. Trash bin broken so Trash outed assorted bottles and 2 bongs. Cache is now in some long grass so be sure to stamp around to move any snakes along. Off to continue caching with Byway Rambler who will want to grab the trackables, I'll bet. Nice big cache too.

Great little park. We had to stop for a play before we left

Took a quick drive down the road during my lunch break to find this cache. I was glad it was the middle of a weekday and there was noone in the playground! Thanks hallfamily7
