Approached this one twice but there were so many mini muggles around I couldnt sign it. Had to head down south with log unsigned.
Found the fishing wire hanging from a branch sans film canister. Looks like this one has been muggled folks.
Plenty of muggles playing tennis, on the playground
equip and walking muggle mutts around so I didn't
search for long.

Sweet as cache, super hard to find, very sneaky. lots of muggles about, muggles playing tennis, muggles running around track and muggles on playground but managed not to be caught
Lots of muggles at the playground today, but none took any notice of us. We had read O-G-P's log so just got in there and "got it done." All is well with the cache. Thanks.

couldnt find it, some of the trees had been cut back so i dont know if it is still there. we look for a very long time
Luckily a swift find as we were caching without our 7 year old who is a great camo for places like this.

Went out with 'Gingasgang' and we couldn't find. some kiddies playing in the trees, maybe gone?? or we are just blind. had a game of tennis so nice time out.
Owner literally drove me to the spot and told me to quit moaning about the muggles and get it done.
So there.
TFTC Leon. No muggles at GZ today helped.

Lots of muggles. I'd just retrieved the cache, turned around; there was a fourlegged muggle standing right behind me.
I threw his ball, and he ran off in the wrong direction... not the brightest

tricky little number indeed. With the light filtering through the tree. 2nd for day. In town at Howick Rec Centre for cat show.

I'll wait for a quiter time.

1st cache we looked for, unable to locate. A few young people playing tennis and we were very aware how we all must have appeared.
Couldn't find it my self, looks like this one is missing.
Don't have a replacement container for this.

Couldn't believe my luck tonight in this area, the 3rd cache in a row where I would have to wait an then walk away empty handed, before returning later to find it.
It was after dark when I had returned, and no tennis players or dog walkers / exercisers left to worry about, made the find via GPS back light, thankfully fairly quickly.
Cheers.

After just returning from India, the dark round spot on the dirt seemed familiar. It was just cause there were so many boys in the park and too much fun was being had. Too small for trades, but a good journey & search. Thanks.
Off for a day caching with Indiana Jill and Seattle’s Best. Wow the sun was shining, muggles out and about and a nice park, Indiana Jill came up with the goods on this one. Thanks for bringing us here to hang!! TFTC.
Warm sunny day, so there were lots of muggles in the area. Had to wait for a group of young boy muggles to leave the GZ before we began hangin out with the cache. TFTC!

Muggle central. Thankfully a quick find, as the cache was in a secluded spot. Brought along our anti-muggle weapon, Mini YuGeo, who enjoyed the playground afterwards. Last one for the day, many thanks.

Sold some of the wifes personel belongings on TM to buy petrol, to get over the bridge, to find this cache...
A month of chaotic caching, glad to retire once we reach the holy grail...
Nice hide, nice quick find .

12:35 Nice surburian playground. Heaps of muggles for the team to contend with. TNLN. Thanks for cache.
Aaaargh another playground, and this one was teeming with muglets, teenage lovers in the field, and tennis players on the other side. Somehow we managed to complete it though.

Out East today in the company of the Great "Sp8sm8 and KiwiGary" - What a team with over 6,000 combined finds.
Oh No ! not another playground we muttered on arrival. Muggles everywhere so we just got on with the job and exited as quickly as we could.
Thanks KiwiLeon.
Cheers TT

Took a little to find this one due to its great camo job. Was about to resign myself to a DNF but one last look and there it was.
Cheers for the cache.

An easy find when you know what to look for - good camo. Signed log. Thanks KiwiLeon.
