Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache. Whenever we sign a blank log book I have trouble convincing PP1 that he is NOT FTF!

Mr Ski looked for this one as Mrs Ski was FaceTiming with our 4 year old granddaughter. A straight forward find.
Yesterday we traveled north for the day from where we are staying our nieces place at Kewarra, so today we decided to go south, picking up caches on the way. We really understand why people up here say they live in paradise. We have seen beautiful parks and magnificent beaches with some amazing houses on are drives around northern Cairns. It really is a slice of heaven.
Thanks to all the local CO’s who have taken us on this journey. We appreciate your efforts in placing and maintaining all of your caches, and we have loved the journey.

The kookaburra is one of my favourite birds, and I love their morning call! The cache, however, is completely wrecked and filled with water. Maintenance urgently needed. Photo log attached for my 6th find today

Cairns Queensland Dive trip 2021. I joined our Dive club for a trip to Cairns to go Diving on the Northern Great Barrier reef. We had a great time and I also went on a more local trip as well. In between there was time for caching around Cairns, and with a Hire care, two day trips to the surrounding areas.

Day 7. This was my first day out in a car. I was heading to the aboriginal community East of Cairns for a Multi. No problems finding this one, but it is wet.

Thanks for the cache MandyLou25

Plenty of hiding places here, found it 4m according to my GPS. Park was empty at midday
Thanks the caches

Had to take the bus down and go for a short walk-about. Made a wrong turn so ended up walking around the block before lining up. Finally found the park entrance and made my way over to GZ. No one around and didn't take too long before making the find. Signed and replaced as found. Walked the long way back out of the park. I wonder if there are croc's down in the soup back there. TFTC!!
