With an event this morning on the Northside I woke early and decided to slowly pick up a few scattered Northside caches on my way to North lakes. After finding an appropriate spot to park the car I made my way swiftly to ground zero, where it was wasnt long before the cache was spotted and the log extracted. With my mark made and cache signed I returned the log and cache to its hiding place and made my way back to the car ready for the next adventure of the morning.A big thanks to the cache owner for placing and maintains this cache for the enjoyment of like minded individuals Cheers

I previously visited the Caboolture Region Environmental Education Centre (CREEC) in Burpengary on 26/04/2024, and subsequently completed the [Burpengary C.R.E.E.C.](https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/238e69db-725c-4a77-b5c4-42b7bb4a245b) Adventure Lab. I was then surprised to find that the bonus cache was so far away, so it was a plan for another day. A pretty cool location and I really enjoyed the Adventure Lab's Locations.Following the CITO event earlier, and knowing that I was in the area, I thought I would detour past this bonus cache. I stopped here, and it wasn't long before spotting the cache container in the trees. I successfully looped the container, just as the mosquitoes were alerting one another of my presence. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. As I started to prepare its return, and I'm not sure how/when it happened, I noticed that its main cable tie loop was broken, so I had to return to my car and add a new cable tie. With in-field maintenance performed, the cache was back in the tree and safe for another day. Just short of 12 months since its last find, although there was a period that the cache was missing. Thanks [TBU2Uwe001](https://coord.info/PREMTHN) for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.----------After following the usual Saturday morning routine consisting of parkrun, Cottontail's gymnastics and library/playground visit with coffee, I was allowed to escape north to attend the [CITO in the Mangroves](https://coord.info/GCAJZV9) event scheduled for early afternoon at low tide. Having visited the area six months ago and getting stuck in the soft mud myself, I knew it would be another tough outing, but a chance to remove stubborn litter. I had a final walk around the Ningi's lake area before returning home in the late afternoon.

Thanks TBU2Uwe001

I’ve had finals for this puzzle for awhile, but never seem to come out this way…

A slight detour and I arrived at GZ… I just couldn’t see the container… as this is now my third DNF of the day, it’s time to call it and go home…

Another day then….

Needing an adventure lab to continue filling in some date squares, I saw an area that might be of some fun for the day. A drive to Toorbul first, then over to Beachmere for a couple labs. The day was full of trials and mishaps and I think we had more dnf’s than finds. We were time poor due to school pickups. Triple turmoil and I headed off on our plan. It was going well and then it turned to mishap after mishap. We drove straight passed our first cache, ok we will get it on the way back. Next was the whereigo, problems with the whereigo (as per norm) meant we left this one. Finally into Toorbul and the multi was done, sweet a tick. Onto the esplanade and a few were missing or we just suffered blindness, there has been some council tree trimming so maybe….. A call to the CO and we replaced one for her.

A drive to Beachmere and we did a nice little puzzle on the way. Lab done it was then a couple of trads in the area and then head home. Oh we missed that one on the way in again. oh well, I am sure we will be back when more get published. We had a fun day just the same.

A slight detour as we went to Beachmere to find this one. Triple turmoil spotted this one and I did the honors. We signed the log and returned all as found, all good here.

After completing the Adventure Lab yesterday afternoon we scouted out the final for this bonus cache but realised we didn’t have the correct TOTT. We returned this afternoon and were able to access the cache container and add our name to the log sheet. The final was a great way to finish our adventure. TFTC

*FTF*

We noticed this Adventure Lab and bonus when it was published, but we’ve been extremely busy the past few days and never had the opportunity to grab it.

We woke up early this morning in preparation to grab it as we noticed it was still up for grabs last night.

After a short drive we arrived at CREEC and made our way around. At the time it was rather warm, but somewhat pleasant walking the trails away from the sun. It truely is a beautiful location.

We had no issue with the questions and after a short time later we had the required numbers for the final.

Back in the car we go and we made our way to GZ, once there we had the car parked in a suitable spot and wandered on in and quickly spotting the hide dangling up high on its perch, so we put our trusty tool to use and landed the beasty, and sure enough we were the first cachers to pop our names on the log to claim the FTF, you beauty!

Thanks Uwe for the fun Adventure Lab and bonus.

Thanks for bringing us to these locations today.
