Today, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I headed south from Brisbane to attend a friend's one-year birthday party celebration. Consequently, we decided to make a day of our time within the Gold Coast. We spent the morning visiting Hope Island, Jabiru Island, Coombabah, and Runaway Bay, and in the process, we completed *North East Gold Coast Skatepark Tour* and *Parks around Coombabah* Adventure Labs. After having a late lunch at Southport, we had a walk around the CBD area completing the *Southport Heritage Walk - Part 2* Wherigo adventure. A sunny and warm afternoon in the end, with many people out and about enjoying picnics and time on the water.

We arrived to find a local council van and worker, and then as we were searching, another rocked up! However, thankfully, this cache didn’t take too long to find after all, as I took half a circle, and saw something a little suspicious yet familar. The cache container and logbook were in good shape, and a nicely creative and constructed cache! Thanks D&Mocha for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Yes the name says it all! Eventually found by Peppa. Out with PirateLinda and Peppa
 
30-Apr-21
Yep. Sure did. Peppa Giraffe 18 and I did several laps. Touching, feeling, moving, smelling. Peppa finally came up with the goods. Clever little hide but too much on the nose for me to leave a favourite point
 
30-Apr-21
PirateLinda, Giraffe18 and I are trying to get to the local mega centre, but I keep redirecting our attention... the last DNF made me hesitant here, but after a couple of circuits I managed to locate this well constructed cache... tftc...
 
02-Jan-21
We certainly went round and round but couldn’t find this one, will come back again soon!
 
08-Sep-20
Very cool idea yes gotta watch for muggles and it looks like everyone is keeping up with some swaps including me which is great some caches are becoming less inspiring of swaps being left
 
23-Aug-20
Didn’t plan on caching today but was around and thought I’d check this out. Wow, how cool is that. Didn’t find it straight away but after approaching from a different direction I hoped I spotted the cache.. holding my breathe I signed it and retreated back to the car. TFTC great design

Gold Coast Day 1
Todays trip took us north into the Coomera area. Lots of new housing estates we visited not knowing that they existed. Even my GPS didn't know some roads.
A sneaky hide, looked in some other spots first. Left a TB here.
Thanks for placing this cache D&Mocha

Although this was a really quick find for us today I think it deserves a favourite for it's design & placement.
Great work! Smile
Enough said, don't want to leave any spoilers, enjoy!
Made our mark & replaced as found.

What excellent construction! I love hides like this - not noticed by muggles but stand out immediately to cachers.
Have a favourite point for your effort in hiding this one.

Thanks to D&Mocha for the cache.

02-May-15
Myself and RPW cacher went to the local farmer's market...and on our way home thought we would have a go at this cache. We arrived at the GZ, and with the updated coordinates in hand (thanks Couchmen) we began the hunt around the area. In quick time I saw something that could possibly be the cache, and you know what...it was the cache!! A nice hide this one. The contents are surprisingly dry given the recent flooding all over the place. SL TSLS and replaced cache as found. TFTC Smile
 
02-May-15
i did not know were to start i told dad do not touch it dangerous it's a bom =D
 
02-Feb-15
Found it with Couchmans coords Thanks for posting them:) Took the koala TB & left a toy TFTC! Smile
 
19-Jan-15
With not to much time on our hands we decided to have a go at this cache!

After arriving near GZ and went to the middle of the park to GZ (if you wanted to, you could park over GZ and get out and find still this cache!! Big Grin(the coordinates are a bit off which adds to the hunt Big GrinBig Grin)) we walked around the grass searching and searching and came up with nothing, so we walked to one of the more likely places and gave it a good search and Bingo Big Grin we found it!!!

Now this is where the fun starts, we opened the cache and pulled everything out, wow that's a nice kangaroo key ring! So we took the key ring, and the Geocoin and left.... well we wanted to leave lip gloss and Kenny Koala's Holiday TB. But we ran into a problem Wink. I could not get the lid on. So I put my packing skills to the test (and my patience) and unpacked and repacked the container several times before I decided that we would have to put something else inRed Face. Instead of the lip gloss we decide to put a slap band USB stick in.

We had so much fun finding this cache that we are going to give it one of our favorite points! Smile

Thanks for the cache DChanell!

We were passing the end of the road having just visited the local dog park and decided to make a quick detour to grab this cache. We took Louie the geomut with us as a decoy. There weren't many places to look which was good and Mrs. Herbz spied something interesting and sent Mr. Herbz in to investigate. Lo and behold there was the neat cache. TFTC.
 
26-Dec-14
TFTC, took a couple of good searches around the obvious spot, geo hubby soon had CIH ☺
 
21-Dec-14
Great idea! Love it! TFTC
 
05-Dec-14
Once at GZ we headed out in the rain and circled a couple of times before Mr LHE Duo noticed something he thought looked promising and it was. He soon added our name to the log. Took TB and left TB. TFTC

Again I on my way to work I stopped in for a cache. Big Grin
But this time it was somewhere a little different. Smile
Like others I had the co-ords a little bit away from GZ but I soon found the cache. [^]
I have not seen one of these containers for quite some time.
Thanks for the cache.
 
03-Nov-14
After a lengthy conversation with the CO that insisted that I do this cache, I had no choice but to get in my car and go find it. Smile The drive was a welcome break from Uni assignments, and as I needed a cache for today anyway, it made for a good excuse Big Grin

DChanell & I were out earlier today checking out the rest of our spots for the power trail and have them pretty well locked in. We don't know exact placements of course but we are sure we have clearance between them!!

DChanell asked if I had checked this out, her new cache, but unfortunately I hadn't as I had been very busy with one thing and another since it had been published.

Geo Wife was going to check it out yesterday and she too got too busy and ran out of time!!

After sending my new spots to the reviewer I looked at the clock and I found I had plenty of time to check it out today!!!

I headed off in the direction that, I thought, would lead me to GZ as I was just heading to Hope Island but luckily I noticed quickly that I was off track and after a U-Turn I was soon heading in the RIGHT direction!!

On arrival I checked out the area and thought there was only one obvious structure that may conceal the cache in such an open area.

After checking out a few wrong objects I spotted the sneaky hide!!!

It blended in so well and seemed be meant to be there!!

I checked for muggles then signed the log and returned the cache.

I must be a bit square 'cause it didn't send ME round in circles!!!!

Thanks DChanell. TFTC SL TNLN Favourite point from us!!!!

The coords that worked for me are above!!
 
21-Oct-14
Coords a little off sorry just noticed on c geo via map. It about 5 metres out and cache towards building.
Will update coords as soon as I can!! Sorry again happy caching not too many giddy spots so shouldn't be a problem till I change.

Heading home from a rough day at work so I thought a cache might lighten my mood before greeting the family. A slight detour from my normal journey home but still fairly close. I probably drive down Helensvale Rd about a dozen times a year and I swear everytime there's road works somewhere along this stretch. I can't remember the last time I drove down here and didn't see tempory fencing, machinery, gravel or orange plastic fencing in some sort of pile. Well as long as the road still works I suppose ya can't complain too much.
So around to the park and I soon noticed there wasn't to many places to hide a cache and before too long I spotted the cleverly constructed cache. Wow, thats cool and in a very handy location I must say. I etched my name in second place then rehid as found.
Thanx again DC, great job.
