Laylas Walk Series #2 Burpengary, Queensland, Australia
By Urdera on 10-Apr-15. Waypoint GC5R554

Due to location and continued need to restore this cache we are archiving it.

No luck with this today. May try again in the future.

Looked all over and took ages to see obvious! Log wet and delicate so put in a piece of paper to sign. Nice area. Tftc

Logbook to be replaced please

Found in an around about way alright, as it was roughly 12m from its listed coordinates. Logbook was full and delicate, so will need replacing please.

Out and about with Chasingadventures to explore the outer reaches of the Solar System for the Planetary Pursuits series via the Dino Planet.

Our second mission is to achieve the unique difficulty/terrain rating in one day.

As our Space ship was landing we were hoping for a Muggle free space to search. A quick is it here there no maybe there oh there it is and we were leaving our names in the log so we could once again blast off in search of Pluto. So far time has been on our side hoping to keep it that way.
Back in orbit now. TFTC

Out and about with Flight Engineer Imbunda ‍ as we continued to explore the outer reaches of the Solar System for the Planetary Pursuits series. Today we were headed for Pluto via the Dino Planet

Managed to find this one fairly quickly as we were a pretty familiar with these containers TFTC

A bit nervous about looking for this one, but a fake phone call and shuffle of the feet and I had this one in hand. Tftc. Also this area looks familiar, I think I know the CO, will be back another day for others.

Quick easy find

A return visit to this one and not a muggle in sight. Search for about 5 minutes before finding the cache exactly where we thought it would be. Ouch!! Glad to turn this one into a smilie. TFTC Urdera

After finding the other two caches in the series, we arrived here but there were too many muggles watching us to do our brush turkey impressions but we'll be back next time we are in the area.

Today, I met up with Mrs RoddyC to clear a few green boxes in the area. Mr RoddyC had left us again. After finding a nearby cache, we made our way to this one. I had been here previously and failed to find it. Today, was a different story. I managed to located the cache in the second place that I looked! I am sure I looked there last time! Happily, I added our names to the log and rehid the cache, ready for the next cacher to find. TFTC

Mr RoddyC had a job to do in Morayfield today, so what better excuse could one find to go geocaching with Selva Girls in the area.

Hmmm Where to look? Not our favourite terrain for a cache, but it did hide one though

Log signed & replaced again. Found at 1.00pm on 17th May 2017. TFTC. Urdera

I decided to do a find a few caches this afternoon, but nothing too strenuous as it is way too hot. I decided to clean up a few more up here as the drive up here would help me cool down a bit. Nurseyjulie came with me. Next, we made our way to this one. We searched and searched for quite some time, without success. Then we realised that our time was up, as I had to drop my caching buddy back to her car so that she could go to work. I will be back to search for this one again.

Out with Rhobocacher for her cache a day and she kindly stopped at some extras for me. I had looked for this one once before and not found it and it took us a little while of turkey impersonations before we found it this time.
It had crept a little from where Rhobocacher had found it last.
Glad to have all 3 of these now smileys on the map.

Found Ok

Nice quick one thanks

Found on our way to our friends house for dinner managed to find quite quickly with the headlights shining on the gz. This is the last of this series I had to pick up TFTC

Too hard

Tftc lovely neighbours we met too! Nice and quiet neighbourhood

Found it but didn't open it and sign because it would give it away to the neighbours who are outside today.

Third time is a charm:) It has taken us 3 attempts to finally make the find here. We looked high and low and came up with the goods.
Tftc

Found it at last after many attempts. Tftc

nice and easy find.TFTC

TFTC 1908# out and about with miss millie at long last found , needed to look harder 4th time lucky

GeoCaching grandson happily found this Cache.

Having found 1 in the series we had a bit of idea what to look for but no luck. Will try again when we have a bit more time.

Lovely to meet fellow cachers who welcome others into their space. Enjoy your lazy Sunday afternoon.

We had some muggle free time here today but there were no exposed rocks to be found

Tried for a short time. Felt too visible, thanks anyway.

Tried to find it quickly but to visible by muggles to locate.

We came back a second time to find this one.

TFTC a nice new log, thank you for keeping the caches going.

Logbook Replaced

I came up this way to find this series and a couple of other caches. Unfortunately when I arrived at roundabout, there was a mugglet kid playing in the tree. Ok, so I went to find the other one nearby in this series, and when I came back mugglet was gone but there were plenty of people out in their driveways and yards. So disappointed this is such a high visibility area. Well, I will just have to be satisfied with two out of three. Thanks Urdera.

Log requires replacing. I had left everything at the car near LWS #1 otherwise I would have left a new log.

This cache is relatively exposed but the early morning allowed me to search a few spots and the cache was in hand. Found the log soaked and unable to be signed. Thanks for bring me back to this location, my muggle bro use to live round the corner. TFTC

Tftc

Nice location and cache well hidden, took a while to find it

Took ages. Co gave us a hint and it was two inches under leaf litter. You had to dig.

I think I must have gone in AFTER the last finder, because whilst I still had to dig, it was not so hard. TFTC

Wednesday. Kerry from Slow Puncture was out and about today searching for randoms.

Upon arrival at GZ (for the 4th or 5th time with this one I think), I knew where to look, but this one has been particularly elusive. Armed with the knowledge that the cache has been uncovered, I carefully picked my way through the area. Nope, nothing. Moving the bushes around revealed nothing.

Now I knew it was uncovered, but where could it be. Not wanting to move anything and possibly re-cover this one, I PAF’d a previous finder. Ok, I’m on the right track and have been looking in the right area. Time to carefully prod and poke. Hello! Could it be! OMG, would love to have done a happy dance, but that would have definitely inspired a nearby workman to look my way. It had definitely been covered back again and I saw a fair bit of scratching around the area. Not sure what to say here, but I’ve left the container completely uncovered (as per the COs instructions) and easily spotable by next cacher.

The logbook was slightly damp however and there was a fair bit of moisture inside the container. Signed and replaced. On a separate note, this was one we tried for as a FTF, and it took another 3 or 4 goes before we got this one, so definitely a sneaky hide.

This was the 2nd of 2 caches found on today's trip.

Thanks [Blue]Urdera[/Blue], for showing us this place.

Hi everyone. I have since been to this location and unburied the cache again. THIS CACHE SHOULD NOT BE BURIED. Sadly whilst people are eager to find in their haste they tend to dig which inadvertently buries the cache under leaf litter. Even with excesdive wind on occassions this cache takes a bit to be completely buried. We are looking at the option of changing the cache container to elleviate this problem in the future.

Sunday. Kerry from Slow Puncture was out and about today in the local neighbourhood.

DNF (even after a PAF), got wet an in the end gave up using the umbrella. Searched under all the plants. No luck today. Second time to find this one. A visit to the nearby CO and a further check on this cache revealed no cache today for us.

This was the only DNF we had on this trip.

Thanks [Blue]Urdera[/Blue], for showing us this place anyway.

Not today

Unfortunately, it started to drizzle .... so we stopped the search. Will come back again. tftc

Having found the others in the series with relative ease, this one was attempted early on but never found even after 2 visits. With GZ being completely exposed to the residents of this quiet cul de sac, I limited my search time to save being probed by some rightfully curious neighbours.

This one then went on to the back burner until recently some completely unsolicited info was sent to me by a friend who must have felt pity after reading my DNFs. This made it a park n grab affair today. In fairness (or as an excuse), I now see where I was going wrong, not enough digging like a scrub turkey... this one was well buried in leaf litter when I found it. Glad to turn this one into a smilie. The inside of the container is wet, but the baggie has kept the log dry.

This cache was found in reasonable condition after a short search, bringing our grand total to 1837 smilies. Thanks Urdera for showing us this spot, and for placing this cache for us and others to find.

Nice

Thanks for the cache

Second time looking. Took the help of a few people to find it. Well hidden

Sneaky. Took a bit of searching. Found with Secret7(P).

Out for a quick cache run with GeographyMan while down visiting the Grandies. Trying to get six for the 500 milestone. Clever little cache.
TFTC Urdera

Out for a day of fun caching with teamdfl and IolantheK where we found ourselves travelling to various locations searching for caches that none of us had yet found. With my GPS in for repair, attempting to use a smart phone for the first time was really proving to be quite amusing!

We soon found ourselves at ground zero and the cache but it took us a little while to lay our hands on the cache. With our names added to the log book, we made our way back to the car to head off to the next location.

Thank you Urdera for having placed the cache for everyone to enjoy.

Mt GPSr had warned me of low batteries quite a while ago. Of course they failed on the way to this one. Luckily IolantheK remembered where it was.

It still took a moment to locate the well hidden cache though.

Hard

[font=Comic Sans MS]Hi there Urdera. We found your cache "Laylas Walk Series #2" at 10:37:00 AM today. This cache makes our find count 11443.
[Blue]
Today was just the sort of day for a sight seeing tour around some of the roads and parks in the local area, and with Layla as our guide the exercise was well worth it.
[/Blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
Cache Condition: The container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Nothing.
Thanks for the hunt,
Regards
Ian & Penny.[font=Verdana]

Alas, was nowhere to be found. Will try again another day.

Out with Zardecoh for a few hours today Seems Zardecoh had been here before and left without a smilie Better fix that then! It only took a minute of scratching around and I had the cache in hand. TFTC, Urdera.

Out for another lovely morning of caching with IolantheK. This one had beaten me on a previous occasion. It is always nice to convert a Blue frown with a Yellow smiliey!! TFTC!

Wow that was a hard one. Had to look hard and needed good light. Took us a lot of digging and didn't need to after all that effort. Was excited to finally find it. Tftc.

Well! We searched, then we searched, then we searched some more.
Did we look suspicious?
We must have, as the muggle lady across the road surprised us & asked what we were doing.
As Geo-mamma continued the search I engaged the inquisitive muggle in a conversation on the finer points of geocaching. We were soon joined by her muggle husband who appeared equally interested.
After a few glances & a questioning look I returned to the search & the muggle couple returned to their gardening.
Mrs Muggle did comment that she hoped she hadn't thrown the cache in the rubbish as she regularly weeds & cleans up the area.
Despite assurances in previous logs & CO comments that this was an easy find this was NOT the case for us today.
Maybe the CO could pay a visit & confirm the cache's presence or absence?

TFTC Urdera

No luck with this one. Found the other 2 easily.

Could've sworn I'd looked there before. There's a bit of evidence that something (or someONE) has been digging around in the leaf litter. A subtle hint to future finders you don't need to. TFTC

We knew what we were looking for with this one as Marco had run into the cache owner at the previous cache. It still took us quite a while to find as it was a process of elimination and a lot of moving leaf litter. Eventually we found the hide. TNLNSL TFTC

Oh dear, the scrub turkeys have been busy. Found the cache covered with their debris. After we scratched around a bit we found the cqche; SL CO has noted that the cache container should not be buried just replaced as found. TFTC Urdera

KingKeyLocksmiths, Marina 25 and I headed out today with a certain challenge in mind (25 unique D/T in a day). This was our only DNF for the day!! We called out for Layla to help but she was nowhere to be seen.

5/7/15 Out for a day with Zardecoh and Marina25 to complete the Unique D/T challenge. We searched high and low, in, out and under. Was hoping Layla would come along, but since it was early morning we didn't like our chances. Unfortunately we had big plans today so couldn't stick around longer to search more. TFTH Urdera

Searched high and low but to no avail, spent longer than we wanted to search even thought of calling out to "Layla" to see if she could help but decieded to log it as a DNF

Quick find. TFTC
Messed up dates and need to fix them

No luck today, maybe another time

TFTC no luck out and about with Tmckenzie91

Finally found this well hidden cache. Helps when the CO and the one and only Layla was with us. Thanks to Urdera.

I am awaiting new waterproof log books to arrive in the mail - the logbook in this cache will be replaced as soon as they arrive. Thanks for your patience.

Miss 11 navigated as I drove to find gz for this one, lots of twists and turns in this pretty area. The hint seemed clear enough, and luckily all was fairly quiet this morning. After about 10 minutes hunting and feeling fairly exposed we retreated to the car, but oh how I hate a dnf Just one more look... I felt rather than saw the container as my converse did the work shuffling around, and woohoo, container in hand! [^] Miss 11 and I signed the log and replaced as found. Tftc Urdera, maybe you could up the difficulty on this one?

*FTF* @ 2.20pm. After the message from the CO this morning, I thought I would just take a look again.
All quiet in the street although someone was just leaving so I quickly whizzed around the car until they were gone. Back to look again. A neighbouring dog came to say hello and would not go until I patted him. He sat straight in front of me. I found the cache and then visited the CO to say I had found it. I had met the CO a few years ago when they had another cache near their home. I got to pat the lovely Layla and then headed home to log this find.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks Urdera All good with this cache
A favourite from me

No luck today
Will return soon

Can confirm cache is still in place however with the attempted finds had been buried a fair bit have 'brought back to surface '

Phone bouncing all over the place.
Too many muggles.
Had to retreat with a DNF!!!!

Had A good look but nothing obvious. Didn't want to start hacking the lomandras in such a public spot. Looks like another first to DNF
