Looks like GZ has changed judging by a previous log photo. CO might like to check?

TFTC,
Departing town and there was no one at GZ. We looked at this a couple of days earlier and due to Muggle activity couldn't get close.
Visited trackables and enjoyed all the new caches.

Attempted this 1 a couple of days ago on Mother's Day, too many muggles sitting at GZ. On our way home, tried again, quick find by Wazza9, needed to get an removable instrument. Signed log and replaced. Thanks to WallabyTim.

On a recent trip to southern NSW, we came back with a couple of TBs. This was the one of a number of caches on the Sunshine Coast for the TBs. Nice Camo

Day 5 of our family holiday and today we are relocating to Mooloolaba. So this cache was naturally on the way and a nice easy place to stop. Fortunately the area was completely deserted so we could have a good hunt for the container. It was soon spotted by Mrs KE and log signed.
Thanks WallabyTim for the cache.

Lots of muggles around and had to wait for them to leave. Useful time as we read previous logs which helped with the retrieval. Nice hide. TFTC

I was working at Peregian Beach today so as I was driving past this cache on my way home, I thought that I should stop and grab it.

It was quite unusual as there was no-one here today. Usually it is quite busy.

As I had the place to myself, I headed over to GZ and shortly thereafter the cache was in hand.

The log was signed and returned to the cache and the cache replaced exactly as found.

It wont be long before the reverse of the log will need to be used by subsequent finders.

All is good with this cache.

Find #1356

When we first got out of the car I could hardly believe that we had almost parked on this cache. We walked off to find another before returning for the hunt.

As we approached GZ I saw a lady carrying a picnic basket walking towards the same destination and couldn’t believe how bad my luck was. Luckily she kept moving and even the sight of where her bikini bottoms had ridden to didn’t deter me.

My wife and I sat down in the oppressive heat and luckily I sat across from her and spied the cache. I showed her where to feel and she came up with the goods.

My forehead was like a tap and my wife let me know how impressive I looked. When I say impressive, I mean sh&thouse. She meant the same thing. tftc

Came to use the nearby facilities. Waited for a while as some very athletic women were taking a break in there training - 19kms down and 40 to go! Luckily we just had the short 20m walk and a rest and cache was in in hand!

Pulled up for toilets then saw a cache had to go back to car for pen but couldn’t let it sit tftc

Had to us a TOTT to get this tight little log out, whew. Nice hide.

Spotted an irregularity and found it very quick tftc

Some days a smiley is a lot easier to come by, in this case when the CO is your fiancé. Sometimes he can be cruel and make me find them by myself while he stands back and laughs at me! But at noon it was far too hot today so he helped out. Find #273, another sneaky one babe!

After the First to find nearby I vowed to come find this one.
I missed the first to find after it had been muggled and by the time it was replaced someone else got it first.
Parked near GZ and had to wait out a muggle.
Geopartner headed for nature's call but the pit stop was out of action so he came back disgruntled and promptly found the cache after the muggle had gone.
Signed the log and placed back where we found it.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks Wallaby Tim Cool All good with this cache

Have been meaning to do this cache for sometime and today was the day, parked up next to GZ and just sat down for a while because of all the muggles about. Started my search and dismissed this one before moving on to another - geowife looked in exactly the same place that I had been and came up with the cache - don't you just hate it when that happens!! I must admitted I've never seen a bison tube like this before LOL, we did think we would be looking elsewhere because of the terrain rating. TFTC WallabyTim Smile

I couldn't work out why this cache was showing on my phone but not on the downloads on my GPS until I found it and saw on the log that I was a 2TF after the relisting of it. Obviously it was a week or so since I last downloaded to my GPS. A very clever cache and I am happy to give it a FP. It's also good to pick up another of the David Low caches. I still have a couple to go though. TFTC WallabyTim

**FTF** What a surprise - Yayyy!!!
We'd just been visiting the nearby plantman cache in the dunes and had a little bit more time to spare and I remembered there was a new one near here somewhere. As I had no logs recorded since it had first been published a couple of months ago, I refreshed the listing and was surprised and excited to find that not only had it moved already, it still had not been found!
We rushed up the road and parked. There were a few muggles coming and going and some sitting in their cars engrossed in their small screens but we did not attract much attention I don't think sitting at one of several picnic tables and looking around. It soon became evident that something extra was attached which fit in nicely. The log was not too willing to come out, so had to take it back to the car to use a TOTT to retrieve it. We were very excited to find a blank logsheet and claim a surprise FTF!

Checked all the spots a D1.5 would hide but no bison. Looks like I'm first to DNF

Soo... cache is gone already. Didnt think itd be muggled so quickly. Unfortunately could not replace straight away as too many muggles in the car park. Will replace early one morning before the car park gets full

Wondered why this one has not been found.
I think these are the parking coordinates.
Tried to message you.
Only found a square drain and the hint was not giving up the cache.
Drove 3 km to nearest GZ but with no coordinates and only going on the description where I thought cache could be but need TOTT to assist in this hunt.
Lots of rubbish and mudwasp nests there.
Thanks for the hunt
