Couldn't find anything even searching 20m radius around GPS location. Maybe someone's removed it?
In the Bundy area for a few days and a few caches were part of the agenda. this was a nice easy park and find. Tftc fulfilled71

The dead cat is still there and in the process of decomposing but looks very comfortable all the same. Fortunately it is not too close to the cache. Thanks for getting us out of the car to have a walk
An easy find, after avoiding the dead near the cache, left the cat for others to dispose of.
The cache is in good condition.
I would love to see the water flow in the nearby drains after some heavy rain, I think it would boil something fierce on that corner.

I have found this cache today together with my dad "schwabenheini". Thanks for hiding it.
This day, klettercache and me were driving our rental car from lovely Hervey Bay to Agnes Water, North of Bundaberg. As I knew, that there are only few caches around our final destination of this day, we tried to get some more caches in the South.
We stopped near Hervey Bay several times and unfortunately, due to the many motor starts after finding caches, the battery of the car got very low. We needed to call the road assistance so that we get some help. Unfortunately, I could not tell them the exact raod that I was driving but of course I could provide exact coordinates of the location, where the battery failed.
For reasons that I still do not understand, they did not want to have the coordinates, though they would have been describing my location by a precision of approximately 1m. Te guy insisted in getting the road information and so it was quite a long discussion until we found out where I can be picked up.
After this incident, I did not stop the engine while searching for caches. So, if in any case you have seen a white car with running motor next to a cache around Bundaberg, please do not fingerpoint on the driver. There was a real need to have the motor running while searching the plastic....
Geokid klettercache was really loving this place as we probably came from the wrong side (Woolworths) and had to cross the river bassin. After we were on the right side, everything was ok and the cache could easily be found.

Out searching with geolations including a 3 year old. Told the little one we were being pirates looking for treasure. Worked a treat - she had items to swap. We helped her use the GPS tell us when the number gets to 2 or 3 when following the arrow. We helped her find this one in its special place. TFTC.
Managed to escape from the in-laws for an hour this afternoon, and I made a beeline for here. I'd failed last time I was here, and in my mission to clear out the Southside of Bundy this little un-smilie was bugging me. A certain former log gave me a new perspective, and with no delay I had a container in my hands ripe for the marking (inside). Some days you got it!
Thanks for placing this cache, fulfilled71. Found in good condition.

I would have thought we could have found this faster, we found it within about 5 min, had fin in the meant time. Thanks for the help Em
Had to climb to get at this one as there was kids playing in the drain on the other side of tree.
Had to wait 20 minutes for the coast to clear, but a quick find after that. Thanks!
Pop by today with a friend, who found the cache but forgot her writing stick. The one in the cache had gone AWOL. Can the next person please bring one?? Normally I keep some in my cache kit but had run out leaving them behind replacing lost ones. She handed me a purply tubey thing but it was soft. Curiosity got the better of me so I unfolded then end, much to our surprise it was a ciggy. The description says kid friendly - smokes are not kid friendly. Remember it's a caches not your own personal mailing system. Very disappointed in people but the cache an easy one
I am happy with the cache to an extent and thoroughly upset at the same time. I had a few mins yesterday to stop by and look for this cache, I found it easily enough (which I was happy about) but there was no writing implement (and the description doesn't say bring one) I saw something cylindrical which was something wrapped up but squished it and it was soft, I thought nothing of it. I went back today with a friend as we were out and she had a pen I could borrow, I told her about the cylindrical item and she decided to unwrap it while I was logging my visit. Much to our surprise it was a CIGARETTE wrapped up in pretty pink paper with bows, there was a small note on the back with a name and a date, I checked the log and there was a group logging on that date (but no log on here I see) one of the names being the one on the paper. I am very upset at the bogans in Bundaberg, this is a childrens cache for goodness sake. It was wrapped up all pretty any child would have taken it with them. We have removed the item and put it where it belongs, IN THE BIN! TFTC I enjoyed the clever hiding spot.
Right, been in Bundy for a couple of days for work, and I'm about to make the long drive home, so thought I'd see what I can get on my way out of town. First stop, and a nice find! TFTC.
Couldn't find this one, despite a really good look around. The day was wearing on, but the light was still clear enough to see what I was looking for, but nothing popped up for my sight this time.
Great location for cache! I didn't think it was the cache when I caught a glimpse, due to many other objects around with a similar look [v]. Dropped of tb. TFTC fulfilled71
On my Bundy Good Bike Ride I dropped by Baker Park and found this cache
I cannot remember it though !! [:o]
There was some heavy tree cover, so I guess it was in a tree ?
I dunno !!
I just cannot remember this park
But TFTC,
Which I definitely did find

TFTC. iPhone GPS had us going in the opposite direction but we eventually found our way. The trees were blocking signal.
We found this one straight away. We logged in the book, when we turned around to put it back the park had 1/2 dozen people in it. lucky we could hide as we placed it back in its bed. TFTC

Searched from the co ords out up to 20m but could not locate this cache today. Looked in all the obvious places around and considering that a couple of seasoned cachers found it yesterday it should be still in place.We must be losing our touch! Could someone who finds it please add the correct co ords so that we have a better chance next time we look.Thanks.
On our day caching with Jannwendy and Bundybirder it took us a short while to find this well hidden cache due to, according to our GPS, the co-ordinates being about 15 metres out but it was a very obvious choice for a cache hide.
TFTC fulfilled71 and bringing us to another good park in Bundaberg.

Found at 5:30 PM GAFF1. We were hoping for a quick find as it was starting to get dark and there are 100 hiding spots in these structures . So after doing nearly a complete circuit, the cache was found - why didn't we go the other way at the start [B)].
Thanks fulfilled71.

Co-ords had us in the bare dirt at the back of the building so searched the nearest likely object and there it was.. Thanks.
Time for my bi-annual visit to Bundaberg and surrounds to gather some happy smileys. Those that I do not get this trip will have to wait till my next visit. Had the company of Fulfilled71 from 1400 hours this afternoon. Had a wonderful time driving and talking. I do not do Munzees.
Found this one quickly on my own before lunch, 0940, and then venturing North of the River to pick up Graham.
Loved the good secure hide and not visible to the casual glance.

A quick find while in town for a few days of cacheing and relaxing TN Left a bug so have your flu shots or you might get the bug LOL SL TFTC Will be back this time next year to do some more Cheers 4 Now
Found it this time, Thanks for replaceing it, I think being a smaller container it may be harder to see as a few logs state that it was visable, TFTC
keithnhazel were right original cache has gone, had bit of a look around the area to try and determine it's fate but no clues to be found. Anyway a smaller black screw type container is there now to be found if it goes again it is obviously a high muggle spot I wasn't aware of and will have to archive this one.
Co-ords were a bit out but looked in the most likelly spot with no luck, we rang a friend who had found it and we were at the right location, It might pay to check this one if you would.
No big containers available to replace it right now, have an eclipse container was going to replace Lung Fish for Fuddley.
Quite an easy find. Didn't need to be tall at all. I'm far from tall & could get it very easily. My IPhone took me pretty close
gps took me off a little but went to where I thought when I parked and found it tftc
Nice easy find for tall ppl....lucky one of us is tall. Thamks for the cache. Not busy today.
Dropped off TB didnt realise this was busy on a wednesday night, nice choir/music practice?
Yahoo! FTF at 8.15am. Haven't done any for a while as we have been busy, and once you miss the FTF there is no urgency. Dropped daughter at school and had to get a blood test. Was going to get the blood test first before checking out this cache (as I was starving) but then thought 'If I do that, one of those other sneaky geocachers will get it before me'. So yes, I put off my blood test and proceeded to the park. This is a nice little park and great as it has been done up fairly recently because of all the work that was done around here. I know it because my daughter had lessons in the purple hall (before the floods). My GPS took me past where I figured the cache would be but I followed it until it put me at a blank bit of ground nearby. So I went with my first instinct and found it pretty quickly. However I thought it was a bit too visible so when I replaced it I put some natural coverage over it so it wasn't so obvious. TFTC it was a lovely day to be out geocaching. Left a love heart.
