My gps kept pointing me to this one area. After 20 minutes of walking in circles I was ready to give up. As I walked back to the car I decided to look in a different place that caught my eye. I took a look, noticed something, and bingo...found it. Cool container.
Every time we are on Guam we come to the park and take some pictures. Today was no exception and the kids remembered the latte stones from last trip! We did not really need much stealth today. We had the park to ourselves until we were replacing the cache and a couple came along. We used the family photo op to cover my final move. TFTC.
At first I thought they were muggles at GZ, but later realized it was a fellow geocacher just finishing up. Very nice container. TFTC
Me and my family were enjoying tree climbing when we came across this cache. TFTC
ChamorroPrincess and I had the kids (Chunkster and Nuggethead2001) running around while we searched. She found it as I was digging around the leaves. It was nice to have the entire park to ourselves. Happy New Year! TFTC!
Had a hard time going around didnt know the traffic flow down south.. lol.. 2/4 of the day.. this one i had to take some stealthy moves since there's traffic across the cache.. i had to pretend sitting down while my hands are working to find it if its underneath the chair or so.. walked around the tree and noticed it.. this one's gonna make it to the "one of the best cache hides" on my list .. looks well camouflaged-in.. cache was in good shape.. log was dry and still has many spaces to log on..

Yet another kewl creative container. Walked around this area with the CO and learned some more history about the culture of this wonderful island. TFTH & the information.
The beginning of an awesome day. My wife's cousins Mike and Miriam came to Guam for vacation and I wanted to show them around the island. The night before he had mentioned that while working back in the states he found a container that contained toys and piece of paper that served as a log but nothing else. He thought it was trash so he discarded it. It wasn't his fault, there was nothing describing what it was. I wanted to show him what Geocaching was, so that was the secondary goal for the day. The first thing that they mentioned was the latte stone. They saw the one at Adelup and wanted to what it was used for. So this was our first stop for the day. We arrived at ground zero and i showed them the latte stones and explained to them what they were. we then proceeded to the cache. My GPS was not at all cooperative today and was bouncing all over the place. We were more than 30 feet from the cache. With a little help from Jimp59 i was able to find the cache really fast. The cover comes off with no effort, so if you are having trouble do not try and pry it off. You are at the wrong location. We logged our visit and went to look for the next cache across the street.
Cool hide! So we first take the kids to see the latte stones, due to the high muggle traffic in the area. Coming back around the bend Ms. GeoTrio671 makes the grab, and I hightail it out of there to sign in the cachemobile. After all is done, Geotrio671Angie, makes the trade and the cache is back where it belongs. We hang for a few more moments, and when we are sure that no muggles have noticed, we're outta there. Thanks for the cache!
What better way to get my 500th find~let me just say it's of great pleasure hitting my goal with one of the best caches on Guam and by the man whose made Geocaching so exciting on Guam as well. Blygoat's Wonder of the Pacific~ TY Blygoat
Out caching with M/M Jimp59 and Jst my Luck. After doing a few caches I needed one more for my 500th find. Just as we were passing Agana I remembered I haven't done the Angel Santos Park cache yet, whereas lucky me Jimp59 takes us to this beautiful well maintain park. Awesome history as well. Finally visiting the park after close to 20yrs. since I've last stepped foot on it. TFTH. Cache is in awesome condition as well.

Caching with Jimp59, Mrs. Jimp59 and Ungkulu today. Enjoying your cache creations. Great history in this park as well. TFTH
Found myself with some alone time this morning, so I figued I'd attempt a couple of caches. There was a landscape muggle making the place more beautiful, but he was not near GZ, so I got lucky!

Helped Blygoat put this one back up, had to make several attempts to get this cache back up as GZ seems to be swarming with muggles in the morning hours. SL
Replaced the cache log after trying several times but was thwarted by grounds keeping muggles.
Found this after Chocolate House. Took a stroll across the street and luckily it was pretty empty for a sunday. Just a small group of kids on some tour or something. blackberry put me in a circle a bit but finally got to gz. had a seat and it just seemed to stand out. took a try and woohoo!! i was right. Nice cache, good work on the hiding spot. TFTC Logged from my phone using the Geocache Navigator by Trimble
Found this cache with sannnROX. Totally obvious and one of those one of these is not like the other kinda caches. I let San have the honors of signing the log.
Doing some power walking in the area. Since sherbear found it with Maga' Haga last month, decided to take a stab at it. josh knew it from a mile away and dives right in! Been a while since I'd been to this park, the construction looked to have been done for the most part, but there was still a lot of cleaning up to do. Real nice and almost like I remember it. It was dark, but I'd love to come back in the daytime.

Searched for this cache with maga'haga on November 21 and we were so sure we found it. Turns out it was missing. A few days ago, I saw a post that this cache was replaced. =D I decided to stop there on my way home from buying a pumpkin pie for my Thanksgiving festivities. The park is still under construction but because its Thanksgiving...no muggles were present. Strolled in with my 12 year old cousin undetected and signed the log.

So we're supposed to mention how we discreetly scored the cache....hmm...well, we didn't. First off, the place is still kinda under construction, KEEP OUT sign included. We went in anyway since there were a few tourists already poking in the park. Also, there were a handful of construction workers there but they ignored us. Despite us kinda just admiring the park as if we were tourists, we got called out by some guy on the premises. Perhaps it was the GPS device hanging from Faith's neck that gave it away. But he smiled and let us go on our way. (We think he's in on the cache job!)
We had trouble finding this cache. We came 2 times before but this time we found it.
We played around so the muggles that were sitting right next to us and the cache.
We talked about looking at geckos when we went for the grab.

Unarchiving cache. Note - Earthcaches and Geocaches can coexist close to each other.
I'm archiving this one today to allow Jebest to put up an Earthcache in this park. I certainly enjoyed this cache as it was the first cache that I had placed. Looking forward to Jebest's new cache!
When we first arrived, we found the location of the cache but it was gone. We managed to find the cover and made a quick call to Blygoat. We replaced a log in plastic and Blygoat said he would bring a container for it. We've enjoyed this park many times before.

My sister and I played with sticks and walked around as mom sat and relaxed and grabbed the cache. We are always the decoy.

Replaced the old, wet cache log with a new one. New log is now in its own, small container. Sharpened pencils as well. Good to go again!
Dried out the log today and put it in new plastic. Now I know why I have a heater in my car...to dry out soggy logs!
