Dear OwnerToday we take a Tour with our bike and found a lot of Cache around this area We are from germany All the best from Team diddyhonda

Out and about with TBU1BIKESU to get more smiles. Found the cache and signed the log. Tftc. klayman

We planned a day on the Sunny Coast - for a mixture of shopping at the European butcher, picking up brackets for our son, going for a swim and caching a bit.We enjoyed a coffee in this area and then headed off to the GZ. As we read the DNFs before, we contacted CO to get permission to put in a replacement.We signed the log and put it back into its hiding spot. Tftc Klaymen

Couldnt find sadly

Not at location

Found ground zero: Pretty sure its missing. Checked around the ground as well. Nada

I checked the hint, but I couldnt find anything after that. I think it may have been moved.

can see where cache should be. I reckon its been muggled

Dnf - found somewhere I could be, but was not there

Visited with RovingWombat today but didnt find it. Found two holes where it might have been, cant remember where it was last time I was here.

A quick find here today.Out with my geoson enjoying a Sunday afternoon adventure.We used to live about 2 blocks from here when this now teenager was a toddler, and thankful to be brought back to this beautiful location today.Stunning views.TFTC!

Nice walk along the track after venturing off to the markets at kawana . lots of yummy fresh food mostly organic ! This cache added to the skills of climbing once again

On our way for a two week geo holiday. TFTC

Enjoy the spider

First geocache, had to use the hint

I was up on the Sunshine Coast for a CITO and grab a few there. I had a small list for a challenge. This was the next one I grab.
Klaymen thank for hiding and maintaining this cache for my enjoyment.

No container just a paper log. But I placed my monogram into this log & replaced into the hide. It’s vulnerable to weather.

Nice quick find here. Such an amazing walk

TFTC

Found wet on ground.. is it meant to be in container? Placed inside space we assume it is meant to be

What a beautiful day to be out on the bike, I am heading to Dicky beach and have come from Maroochydore where we are staying for 8 week as we are from Melbourne and it’s a bit cold down there at the moment. Back to the cache, what a novel way to hide one well done and TFTC

Our initial plans changed and Peppa and I headed for Caloundra to find some recently solved puzzles. We made a quick find before checking out the cool bar nearby. Thanks for the fun klaymen

A day of caching fun with Beardman75 concentrating on the Howzat & Fab Four Puzzles plus a couple of trads that I tortured BM75 with…

Another Trad that wasn’t on the list… but it was just up the road from where we wanted to be next… We took a longer route than was necessary, but it’s still early…

BM75 made the find while I was busy checking out the perv, I mean viewing bar… bring the binoculars if you want to see “the boats” properly…

Thanks klaymen

Find # 8322

Road tripping, again! This time heading up to Caloundra for a few weeks to get away from the cold down south. Picking up some oldies and some counties along the way. And caches with >10 FP to fill the GHQ monthly Wheel of Challenges.

This was a quick and easy find here at GZ today.

Thanks so much for the cache klaymen And of course for getting me out and about and enjoying this area too

Lovely day finding caches with Snickersallan and grannysmith47 despite me worrying about the forecasted rain the day before. I needed to get 12 Smileys to get the second challenge souvenir on offer from Geocaching HQ, we did more than that! Happy dance!

Thank you for the cache klaymen.

A trip up to Caloundra to meet up with E_Smiley and grannysmith1947 for a day of caching. It was pouring rain all the way from the Gold Coast to the outskirts of Corbould Park, and then the sun appeared from nowhere! Thank goodness we never got to use the wellies, fowl weather gear, or the brolly
The majority of caches found today were in excellent condition and a real credit to the CO's who placed them, and we certainly had fun finding them all

Thank you klaymen, the good hint made for a quick find

TFTC smile 16395 out and about on a lovely day With Snickersallan and E_smiley sign as GS1947 on small logs
Signed and replaced,
Thank you, klaymen, for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

finally found a bit hard but when using the hints it was easier

TFTC

This is our first cache in Australia. We are on holiday from Scotland Loving the heat and beautiful scenery

I was expecting a cache container, instead there was a ‘cover’ and a log sheet. East find. TFTC

Pretty easy find. Nice spot.

Cache found rather eaay and quickly.. though there is no real container and its waterlogged.. needs maintenance pretty badly.

TFTC! Enjoyed the lovely walk and the scenery. Quite a few muggles about today but managed to stealth our way to the find.

An easy find. Cache was full of ants but log was ok. TFTC

Found at 11.54 with the geokids. We love this beach! TFTC

Lovely spot, hint made it easy, thanks for placing

Ridiing along this trail and stopped to get this one. A nice quick find. I replaced the paper as the old one was z bit old. Ants had also taken a liking to this hide.
TFTC

Found within 2m of coordinates. Heavily water damaged log.

Found with my geokids Tobias and Madison. Log needs attention asap as it's home to lots of ants!

Very wet and full of ants see photo

Walking with a group between Caloundra and next MAJOR town… decided to leave the group and Cache my way back to Caloundra.
Found the hide quickly.
Could not believe this cache. No bag and meger covering!
The ant have a nest at the back of the hidey hole.
TFTC… nice spot for a break too.

klaymen I found your cache My Beach on 21/4/2022, 11:40 am. This is my find 3399 and find # 5 today. Found the right spot, once I uncovered it a colony of ants have taken residence. Logbook still there, just brush the ants off. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN

Nice beach. TftC.

Above 4. Lovely cycle, mostly quiet suitable for us on loaded touring bikes.

Out with chamad, E_Smiley, Duppers collecting caches on the beautiful Sunshine Coast.
After an early start we made our way north, collecting caches as we went.
After a lovely walk to gz, the cache was quickly found thanks to the hint.
Log signed, it was almost time to head home ... although there's always time for one more!.
Thanks klaymen for the cache.

A plan was set for today to try to complete as many of the sunshine coast caches as possible with a target of 140 (my target). Todays little group was Willis007, Esmiley, newcomer Duppers and myself. We meet at the arranged meeting point; we worked out where we were going and had a plan for the day. It was a little slow start but once all the formalities were done it was all systems go. The day was a lot of fun, with laughs, the usual banter and some nice walks. The plan changed a little as we went, we got a third of our targets, which I was happy with, as it was a big ask considering the caches were doing. We had a few DNF’s which took up a lot of time, a couple of multis that had us stuck for a checker tick. We were lucky to have Esmiley along who had completed a few of the caches and gave us some insight.
Thanks to all the CO’s for the caches and some fun hides and to my caching buddies for the day. We signed all logs and replaced containers as we found them.

On our way home and it was a slight detour to grab this one. Arriving at GZ taking the new path there, we found the cache easily, thanks to the hint. This one needs a bag or a container please. The inhabitants are eating the log, lol.
All good with this cache and now it is onto the next one.

Great location, thank you for sharing “your” beach! We’ve had a great time playing in the sand and swimming in the water today. Cache is in need of some maintenance, the log is very wet.

Quite damp, but cool. Tftc!

Great spot, went for a swim with the kids after. Unfortunately this cache does need some attention, log was found on the ground, not sure where container is. Have put log in the spot I assumed it to be and covered with a bottle cap found near by.

Found, but log was too wet to sign. Good hide, cheers

Replaced back best as we can
Maybe needs a check from the CO.
Thanks for the cache and very nice location

Based on photos and clues, I had a good idea where to look. Alas, no cache. I must be wrong. I still enjoyed a few moments at the beach though. Off to the next one.

Gotcha !!! TFTC

Out riding the bike paths from Kings Beach. Enjoyed the roll north so far and love the beach. The clue helps to find the cache quickly.

Love your beach.

That is a piece of o and real estate to call you own. Impressive
Thank you for hiding this geocache and keeping me entertained klaymen

Beautiful spot thank you

A lovely morning in this area picking up some caches and this is one I found. Fabulous view of the ocean which is quite wild today. Log signed and cache replaced as found. Thanks Klaymen.

Where could it be- ahhh hint very helpful tftc

Found it. TFTC

Found it with DeafPVC ️

Hooray thanks for share DeafPVC

Came on to the wrong path at first.. mmm let’s move on and glad we did. It’s beautiful here! The hide is just as great today of all days, it’s cold and miserable thank you for bringing us here. Logging with DeafPVC

Found on a 10km beach stroll from Currimundi to Cartwright. Either the last finder went back to this one later and added a new log after posting their find, or the CO came past and put a new log and added the last finder's name; nice job, whichever it was – a crisp, dry piece of paper to sign.

Thought this one might take me longer to find, but I pretty much had it in hand immediately. Excellent cache and in a beautiful part of the world that – happily – I can also claim is mine. Thanks, klaymen!

Found easily - great hint, thanks. Log was missing so had to make do with a photo.

Sneaky!! Had to think through the client again to get it

Found it but no log to sign

Good spot

Going through my caches from my last trip and discovered a couple I failed to log. Our trip was cut short, but we enjoyed our visit. Life is still complicated, but we got home ok.

Found nice and easy. Had no log so signed a small piece of brown paper I found in my bag and put that in. Only has room for another signing on the other side so next cacher has to bring a log. TYFTC.

This was our first cache find ever!! Such a sneaky well hidden cache... I'm impressed with myself that I actually found it. Such a beautiful spot.

This stretch of beach is home to a chair which commemorates the amazing life of my brother Andrew. He bought a block of land at bokarina beach when it was cheap as chips whilst travelling aus in his combi van. He built a home and when we visited he would take us into the scrub to listen to the pobblebonk frogs when it rained and across to the beach each morn to watch the waves. In the rainy season tree frogs would cross the road as the water rised and we would play on the road with his kids. We’ve watch turtles and whales from the sand, and brought our dogs here to claim he beach as theirs. This spot holds so many special memories for me, watching Andrew do backflips from the dunes and just showing us all the beauty of nature. The cache itself is well made and ofcourse it deserves a fav. Thanks for placing a cache at my beach - Let’s say our beach coz Aussies are so lucky to have white sandy stretches like this and we all need to protect them. Tftc

So many to pick from, but got it eventually

Third cache attempted today on our bike ride from Point Cartwright.
A quick find of a cleverly placed cache.
Thanks, and a favourite point from us.

Very clever hide, and a quick find. TFTC

Had a wedding nearby which was lovely
Had some time to kill before dinner, so down to the beach we went. I happened to choose a beach that had a cache.
Nice quick find thanks to the hint.

Nice hide

Excellent location. Great views of the passing ships. TNLN TFTC

Nice one! Glad we didn’t go nuts trying to find it. Quiet area we’ll come back to. Thanks for the cache!

I took a stroll to "My Beach" this morning
It looks like any other beach along this part of the coast !! [:o]
Nothing special

And just like every other beach,
there was a cache to find
Ha !! A nice and sneaky cache hide [^]

Now that's special

Sunday. Fifth cache found today for Slow Puncture with Muggle Friend in tow. What a lovely walk to this cache! We were really taken in with the beauty of this area and stopped to admire the beach before we started to look for this cache. My arrow was on a real go-slow today and so wasn’t much help, so we resorted to hints and geo-eyes. Cache quickly spotted and log signed. Nice hide! Seemed such a shame to have to move on, but we had a timeline that we had to adhere to and so we took one last look at this lovely beach and took in the birds signing in the trees. Replaced as found.

This was the 5th of 6 caches found on today's trip.

Thanks ***klaymen***, for showing us this place.

Found with bigred17. Tftc. Pursuit of the Planets #51.

Out caching with the Tough Mothers (Jemillalucy and Lisylou). SuCh a beautiful spot. TFTC and for bringing us here!
