ABERDEEN ROSE GARDENS Aberdeen, New South Wales, Australia
By Havago on 18-Jan-10. Waypoint GC2336R

I had a really good look for this one and didn't want to leave with a DNF. But I had to admit defeat.

Cache has been taken by muggles! [:(!]

Had a really quick look but muggle sitting right in middle of garden reading so not in a hurry to leave. When returned to car, realized where it probably was but no way of getting without looking super-suspicious. Next time...

First one on our holiday this year.

nice, well hidden cache in a park that i have passed a couple of times. TFTC!!!

an interesting table- reminded as of our recent trip to the UK. TFTC

Found with Georents, on our way home to Sydney!! Tricky clue...

Very easy find, all is well in the rose garden

Lovely roses still in bloom clue says it all Thanks for the cache.

TFTC, First Cache on this trip north for Christmas. Shared with the trackables experiencing new locations in Australia for their owners.

A lovely little garden on the highway. This park has special meaning for this geo couple, as we were married here. TFTC

Very good clues, lovely to stop and smell the roses

Travelling up north on a very wet day we were able to grab a few caches along the way.

A quick dash from the car as the rain tumbled down. Found the cache with this clever clue.
Thanks

Being in the tile industry, appreciated the mosaic work

Good hide, with an interesting hint. Kind of hits you with sudden realization. TFTC

Nice easy find but got busted by the park gardian and wife who were rakeing leaves and pruning bushes on the other side.
A quick explanation and they said they would keep an eye on it and not tell anyone and it was a thing that brought more visitors too their garden.

Nice hide in a nice park. Thanks for the cache )

Nice quick find. Lovely little park for a rest as the sun was setting on a days caching. TFTC.

Arrived to search just as a ute pulled up with what looked like someone that was going to do some work in the park. I took a seat as he looked at me suspiciously while donning overalls before turning his interest to his whipper-snipper. Luckily I then quickly found and logged the cache while he had his back turned. Sneaky yet accessible hide. Thanks.

A lovely little garden, we enjoyed.

Found with cdm261on way to tenterfield

Found with Wishy1

No drama's with this quickie, except for the fact Abel E reversed the van straight into the large pvc piping that covered the large cable connected to the powerpole...oops! Quick find that had us wondering for a little before finally giving itself up. Lovely gardens which we had all to ourselves. TFTC

Took us a few minutes but we got there, thanks!

Found it No. 3617 ... good clue ... TNLN ... TFTC

An easy find on our way back from Newcastle

Really liked this cache. Thought it would be dead easy upon arrival. No cache? mmmm. Turn around and begin to giggle. Quickly found the cache. Great memories. Sadly it was time to motor and grab some GCA gnomes before heading home.

A nice spot to stop on our way home when in need of a cuppa and something to eat.
Loved the clue and the lateral thinking needed.

A very hot afternoon.

Thanks,

Not as tricky as some of havago's. Tftc

TFTC, quick to find on your way past.

Great hide, took a bit os searchin but worth it

Great cache. TNLN. TFTC. Don't give up if you dont find it straight away, well disguised

Beautiful spot and lovely gardens. Quick find. SL TNLN T4TC

Please note that the picture of the Red Back Spiders nest in the previouse log is in an unknown location and has nothing to do with the cache location.

The last of my quick trip to Tamworth and back to the Central Coast. And yet another inhabited by red-back spiders. Nice gardens and good place to stop for a rest and the kids to run free. Thank you.

The roses need some attention. A good cache.

Lovely to visit an "old stomping ground"! Found with geo-family on lovely sunny,windy day.

Found this cache straight away when we stopped in the rose garden. Logged my visit then back on the road heading for Gunnedah. Thanks for another quick drive-by.

Toowoomba 10.2. Not many roses at this time of year, but the table has the most amazing tiles on it. Nice little visitors center as well. Thanks.

Found after a pub lunch and on the way north to Moonan Brook with the geo-crew. I have been past several times recently but was muggled out each time - its always easier when the geo-kids can snoop around without attracting nearly as much attention. Thanks Havago.

Finally, I got to driving past when there was nobody in the park. There is normally kids wandering here whenever I drive past. But not today. So I quickly logged this one in these nice gardens. TFTC Havago

Nice hide. Loved the roses. It gave me some ideas for my own garden.

Very quite around the gardens today and quickly found the cache. Thanks.

Found with waldenclan. Tnln tftc.

A quick stop in Aberdeen on the way home from QLD. Most of the family opted to stay in the car, with only Bethany coming for the short walk across the road. A quick find and we were soon on our way.
TNLNSL, thanks for the cache!
best wishes,
Wal & Beth

I lived in Muswellbrook for nearly 2 years while with the Police Crime scene unit. It was good to come back home to grab some caches in well trodden areas Cheers!

Rated: for Overall Experience

I nearly couldn't convince my son to go for a cache today but in the end he was the one that found it. We have now found all the local cache's and are moving onto the big guns now. TFTC. Picnic coming up this weekend. The local shops made this quite hard. Everyone seemed to be stopping to get something before ending their day.

We were on our way to the Highland Games, the markets were on, but we decided to have a go anyway. It was a very sneaky hide we thought, but Geohubby was successful, muggles were none the wiser, and we were all happy to make the find! TFTH TNLNS

First time I've stopped in Aberdeen. TFTC

Nice quick find and as we were still early we had the place to our selves.

311 - A nice, quick, unhindered find. Nice little park! TFTC

With a new 4WD to run-in we took a trip North to put some kilometer on the clock, stooping overnight at Scone. This almost-a-drive-by at Aberdeen on our way back home was too good an opportunity to pass by. A deserted park let us have a quick, easy find. Our first geocaching adventure for a couple of months of not having a vehicle.

We'd been out to Scone for the Street Parade and stopped in to find this cache on the way home. There are some beautiful roses in the gardens and I enjoyed taking quite a few photos of them. We found the cache fairly quickly. TNLNSL TFTC

6.30pm
Nice easy find & enjoyed using such a unique table for signing the log.

TFTC!
Ywurry (with Anderka)
ps: sorry for late log… been out of the inter-webs range for a while…

18:30 (found with ywurry): This is a great little oasis on the trip from Ashford to Sydney via Muswellbrook. The park is very picturesque (even in the light that we were presented with!). Nice easy find. TNLNSL. TFTC.

P.S. Sorry for late log. Has been a busy time of year dealing with farm stuff and renovations.

Found on our way home from Nundle to Wollongong after a week of visiting family.

A well hidden cache in a busy place. It was wet today but the geograndkids didn't notice the rain as they eagerly search for the cache. TFTC SL TNLN
