Went missing twice, so have decided it's not suitable or fair to keep it going. Will be looking for a better place in the same park soon.

Went to check and think we found the cache a little to the west of where it should have been after a very protracted search with G_G_G. Will come back when this is re-enabled. Ta!

Checked it for you, just in case we got lucky. Nope.

Well, that will be why we didn't find it!! We checked all the spaces, but no cache to be found.

Temporarily Disabled until I can maintain/replace/reposition. Sorry !

Admiral Horton was out and about very early this morning before it got too hot for his driver.
He visited Pollard Park where he romped along the obstacle course, watched a bit of golf and then sat in the shade watching some ambitious young tennis players for a while.
The ducks didnt seem at all bothered when he arrived to look at this cache... they were too busy eating but the duck feeding muggles did keep us from actually looking at the cache

Instead I have known from his former residence in Blenheim, and it is really very nice park where they liked even if it's moved a lot of muggles.

Additionally, more cache stretch several travel article ...

Thought I knew the spot but all holes behind the creepers were empty...I think!

Searched with XD2 (XD Junior) on a rainy Blenheim day... despite the extra set of eyes we failed to find any trace... then it started raining again.

Made miss 7 very happy when she found this one~!!

On our trip through New Zealand we found this cache. We went for a walk through the park and stopped at the coords. Beautiful gardens. Thanks for showing. TFTC!

found just on dusk so the coloured lights made it very nice

Quiet in park today. Found without too much trouble. Left a pet rock - a hedgehog. TFTC

Stopped nearby for lunch while exploring in the area today, cache was only about 40 metres away. Spotted instantly as I walked towards it. Nice park, I remember coming here many decades ago as a child. Signed log, TFTC!

Though we didn't quite understand the additional hint, it was a quick find.

So hard to cache here during a summer's day. Everyone is feeding ducks or sitting opposite GZ watching!
Then in the evening there is the attraction of the park's illumination festival.
But with patience we got it!

Quick find
good one
TFTC

Quickly found, nice hide

Great location, nice hide, did early, still had to dodge the groundsmen.

Lots of action from some very well fed ducks while we waited for privacy.
Then, just as I reached for the cache, two very loud voices announced "we already found that, nannie!!" (I had the RhomingNome minis with me)
Never mind. We got it signed and replaced it without being observed.

Our first south island cache and a pleasant spot to visit

Great spot for a cache and a neat wee hiding spot. Found with the whole KE team in attendance, a rare event these days. TFTC

Very pleased to return to this colourful park which we first visited 3 years ago. We couldn't search for this cache yesterday afternoon as there were muggles on a nearby bench, so returned this morning for a muggle-free find. Good hide. SL. TFTC.

Found after short hunt. No sign of trackable. Tftc

Good hide in the holiday TFTC

I've been to this park before for a cache but not in this spot. TFTC, Biggles.

Found with moneydork

A quick walk in a lovely park.TFTC

A quick find in heavy rain.

With family we went to see the lights in the nightly park. We could find the cache in the dark.
TFTC and greetings from Switzerland.

I found this cache together with steha70 a while ago. We are traveling around NZ.
Thank you for the cache and greetings from Switzerland. Grazie!

Lovely spot, and that calming water is just what I needed.

It didn't take too long to locate and retrieve the cache, despite the gardeners nearby on one side, and a girl sitting on a seat on the other side. TFTC

We came here after not even getting out of the car at Seymour Park because of muggles. They were here as well but far enough from the cache for and easy retrieve and replace. TNLN TFTVC

Very nice park. My wife enjoyed the flowers, especially - roses. Thanks for bringing me here and greetings from Latvia! Took TB.

An easy find, but while I was completing the formalities a group of youths appeared and set up camp at GZ. Nothing for it, but to wait them out.

TFTC

Great spot for a cache. Thanks

Went up and down the bank a few times until I found it. Good hide!
Afterwards, had a wander round the Perfumed garden and the herbaceous border, both are looking lovely at this time of year.

#1824 (10/18 on a day in Marlborough). Searched various spots before Troodles worked it out. TFTC.

beautiful park by night
thanks for showing
TFTC

lots of small kids playing not far away with morthers sitting on the grass. cache just out of site. TFTC

Downloaded the Geocaching App for the iPhone last night, took the family on their first "treasure hunt" this morning. Our 3 year old loved it, our 18 month old couldn't care less but enjoyed feeding the ducks afterward.

After being here on a sunday we were hoping it would be a little bit more alife today in Benheim but... no... only thing open was the icecream salon so went geocaching again nice park thankx for this one

it was a bit buissy here so we had a few moments a sit, but the kids went away

Was a easy find, as we got to watch the two before us fill in & replace the cache! The kids feeding the ducks covered up our mission nicely. Took us ages to do this one even though we only live across the rd. Always busy here even on the wet & wild days so the challenge realy is getting & replacing the cache with out being watched! TFTC!

three teens stading on the wall right at cache.we stood right below them untill they finally got the message to leave us in peace to sneak this while world revloved around us. found with stayonmytail

Had to be patient, this Park is a gardeners dream, always enjoy visiting. TFTC.

Found this one while visiting from Aust
Nice quick find
Thanks for showing us this area.
Left Aust coin, took Tiki

What a beautiful park. Thank you for taking us there.
Found on our way back from Wellington.
TN, Left tiki.

great day for a rummage round at the park.

pushed it to the back as it was hanging out of its hiding hole.

Beaut day tftc

#563 Out and about in Blenheim today on our quick trip to the area for the weekend. Very nice spot. Clever hide. Quick find. SL. TNLN. TFTC.

#14 When a keen geocacher (Mum) comes to visit, we all have to go geocaching. Nice to see some familiar and not so familiar places in a local town. SL. TFTC.

Sunday night is obviously the night for Blenheim's uncouth youth to frequent for a spot of lunacy. Fortunately, just far enough away to not disturb a cacher getting a smiley

A nice park, and very deserted early in the morning which suited me fine. Nice hide too.
TFTC

What a lovely spot.

Thanks for bringing me here

Third visit to this lovely park for a cache. The blossom was absolutely stunning this evening. TFTC #1602

Great spot. No travel bug found.

Saw a couple of DNFs so went to check out cache - hide had been cleared out - muggled. Have replaced something similar. Sorry for the DNFs.

Didnt find this one. Lots of likely places but all empty, lots of muggles around too, Ducks not hungry, to well fed in the holidays.

Found lots of holes but no cache will come back on my next trip over the hill once it been replaces as it a nice park very popular with muggles

Even with 4 of us looking we didn't find it. Lots of likely hidey holes but all empty. It's possible it may have gone or else it just wasn't our day )

Nice walk on wet day

1510hrs Sorry didn't have an interesting coin to leave. Watch for mother muggles walking baby muggles. The Italian Job was here......! Our blog www.motorhominginxs.blogspot.com

Beaut day for a walk, lots of muggles around, but managed to log the find

Found my first cache!

Excellent place to hide it, and with the hints it was easy enought to find. I managed to get it out easily, and entered the cache log...but very difficult to get back in to the hiding spot as all of a sudden there were heaps of people around!

An excellent, well thought about cache, with the ever present possibility of a muggle walking in while doing your business. TNLN. TFTC.

Miserable day and Andre enjoyed driving his remote control car to this site and making the find. Cheers! Added Canadian TB.

Mrs. RhomingNome and the Little Nomes had a quick play here today. Little Nome Girl found the cache (and almost alerted a nearby Muggle), much to her delight. Placed back as it was after writing in the log. TFTC

Found with hubby Stretch0 (who has logged the wrong date lol and might of put the wrong date on the log sheet !!! Men !!! lol ) heading home from Blenheim after a quick trip over - have done a few caches in the park - it was a favourite walk when we lived close by - so great to see new caches being put out over here thanks for the cache took nothing left nothing signed log

A quick cache as we were about to depart town on the way home Always love comming for a walk around this park TFTC

What a nice park. TFTC

Well done 12 eyes on placing a cache in this great park, we look forward to your next one. Many muggles plus ducks. TFTC

FTF. Found by Mrs Rarangi. Easy find, wonderful spot. TFTC
