The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

T-Tech and I have been staying at Cabarita Beach for a few days for our son's wedding, and it has been very busy with visitors coming and going, but finally today we can go geocaching! We took a run south to Ocean Shores, then sped up the freeway north to Chinderah and Fingal Head, then out via the old road to Duranbah. A fun outing, which gave us 18 finds and 2 DNFs.

We made a diligent effort to search for this one, but no smilie Sad

Read the clue and set forth. Nice quick find on this one.

I found something that matched the hint and the cache was soon in hand.

Signed it off but I didn't size it right so ran out of space for my last z. Had to put it underneath! Haha

TFTC!

Off join my GeoUncle to look at the bridge and take photos. Also a pelican nearby so took a photo of that too.

Had a weekend away at the besties place again and we thought we would head in the other direction to what we did last time as we crossed off most of the Lolly Bag Loop.

This was our twenty-third of 23 finds for today so we were pretty happy.

Nice and easy park and grab here. Found GZ quickly. Lots of muggles around today but none interested in what we were doing. Found after a very short search.

Cache is ok.

Log signed and replaced as found.

17-Dec-15
Down in the area to do some of my own cache maintenance I stopped by here to find this cache. The old bridge was still in use but now as an area to fish from. I don't know if anyone has caught anything as I didn't actually speak with them. However, I did have my own adventure to begin and searched for the cache and found it where I thought it might be, but the second time I looked there, not the first time, lol. Thanks king-fisher8.

Another perfect winter day for a quick drive in Tweed.
This was close to where we are camped, so it was found on the way past.
Cheers from down south in Wagga Wagga.

Geo Wife & I were heading down to Gold Coast Airport, to pick up some international visitors, so we made sure we left earlier to grab a few caches.

This was had disappeared when we were here last time so we were very happy to see that it had been replaced!!

The area was completely deserted so we were able to search freely.

We checked one area with no luck then moved slightly and Geo Wife soon spotted the hide.

Thanks KF & BC TFTC SL

TFTC First Cache found to be be FTF joint find with jacquir. We saw it on the phone decided to go out in the pouring rain and try and find it. In about one minute we had our hands around the cache and was so excited we where first to find TFTC SL TSLS
 
03-Feb-15
Saw this on the email after work so said to my son we might get a FTF. Yippee first ever. Must say we don't usually geocache in the rain but this was worth the trip. Would be nice area for a little picnic so close to the water.

I remember this bridge well before the new bridge. We were in a houseboat and had to book in to have the bridge opened to us.
 
03-Feb-15
When I left home this one hadn't been found,however home is a couple of hours drive from here so by the time I got here only managed a third place.Very nice location by the river.TFTC.
