Logs
Cache was lying in the open. Log is just scraps of paper that have torn. Even with extraction tool, log was difficult to retrieve. But cache found so can move to the next. TFTC
This afternoon, I decided to head out of the house and go for a run around the streets of Robina. I thought I would focus on the west side of Robina's West Lake, and head towards *Rocket*, to then return home, stopping for a few geocaches along the way.
I was having a good search around for this cache, and there were a few possible hiding spots, but nothing was standing out. I ended up going back through a few past logs and photos, to then ascertain where it was hidden. As it turned out, it was in a logical and nice hiding spot, with good coordinates. The cache container was in good shape, but the logbook is very full, and probably needs to be replaced. I'm normally not the biggest fan of pill bottle and alike containers, since the logbook is difficult to retrieve through the neck, but I didn't seem to have any trouble extracting this logbook. Thanks Bermudagold for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Think I was in the right location. But just couldn't find it despite a good look round. Nevermind will come back.
Spent ages looking - this one is either incredibly well hidden, or not there anymore!
No fear but the shocking big spiders near! Park afar from the nature spot or in your sunvisor could be a shock!
Have been twice and couldn’t find it.
Used clues and anagram (solved )
But could not locate it. Will keep an eye on activity and if others find it will give it another go.

Brislions and I were spending the day caching at the Gold Coast. A quick find and sign here and we were on our way again. TFTC
Selva Girls and I headed down to the Gold Coast today, chasing a FTF which I notice the other day. So today target was Adventure Lab which a bonus cache.
So the count was 3 mystery, multi, earthcache, 16 Traditional and AL with 5 waypoints. 26 finds.
Sorry for the generic post.

Tried to find but felt like we were casing the joint and didn’t want to stay around for too long and look suspicious
Took longer than it should’ve. But when you look carefully it’s quite easy to see.

This is one of those caches where it takes longer to get the log out than to find the actual cache... tftc...

had to cheat a little with the anagram (thanks to google), but found v quickly once solved !!!
Second time round and we finally found it, had to be quiet this time around as neighbours were in their yards!
Came down to the coast a day early to catch a ️ with Eskies5 it was dark before arrived but we decided to grab just one cache and this was it. After a short search we had what we came for, signed our names and returned to where we found. TFTC
On the way to the Gold Coast airport for a weekend geo-adventure with Kestal. I needed to top up the calendar so Kestal did a quick search for a potential drive-by...this one looked good so we made the detour off the highway. On site we made the connection to the cache title as to its location and a further look at the hint narrowed us in for a quick find. TFTC
This is a neat little area and a fun find on this quiert Sunday. With the anagram solved and good coordinates I was able to quickly locate the hide. Ducked down to sign in case anybody went past, but there was no passing traffic anyway.
Thanks to Bermudagold for placing this cache.

After a bit of searching we widened the search and soon had the elusive container in hand to sign. Bit too close to the neighbour's garden for my liking!
Out caching in the area with RoddyC and hatzofff after a failed attempt at Rocket.
Another quick find.
Found on 10 December 2019 at 2.49pm. TFTC, Bermudagold.
