Remembrance Park (Levin) Weraroa, North Island, New Zealand
By tmann421 on 06-Oct-10. Waypoint GC2G99H

Called in to drop off some trackables, didn't realise about the previous log or the fact that the cache has not been found for some time.
I have found this cache previously so was familiar with the hide though I didn't have the coordinates in my GPS currently and only had a short time before catching a bus. However took a bit of a look around and pretty sure I found the hint object a short distance from GZ with no cache.
Unless there is a found log in the near future it looks like a check on this cache is needed.

Looks like this one has been muggled again. Time to give up on it and archive it.

It is always frustrating when others find it easy and I can't find hide nor here of it. Did find hint objects but the cache eluded me. A nice park though.

TFTC - Took "Brooklyn The Monkey"

A very nice memorial garden here. Wandered along the pathways, then spotted something at GZ. Log was soon signed after that. Thanks.

took my sister and her friend geocaching because they've never been before.... it was the first one we found took a while, but we got there eventually

Easy find today. TFTC

A few muggles around, not too hard. TFTC

found it sort of hard in the dark =-)

Lovely park, nice to remember our grandfathers (and greatGFs too). Fun hunt.TFTC.

Lovely wander and new place discovered

Etherlord family's summer caching roadtrip to Levin.
I guessed what the hint was referring to, but all the zna znqr ebpx's I looked under were only hiding slaters and spiders.
I finally found it after a far too long search to which I actually gave up and was heading back to the car. At the last moment I saw the zna znqr ebpx that stuck out and headed back to Mrs Etherlord waiting in the car with a smile on my face rather than a frown

Pulled over to check how far to the camp and thought it would be rude not to find the nearby cache. Good hide TFTC.

quick find in a lovely park.

one of the nicest memorial parks. another quick find, thanks

Very nice memorial and garden TFTC

first geocaching experiance - great funn

found while passing through Levin on our way to the South Island. TFTC

Quick and easy find. We missed the best of the tulips, they would have been beautiful in full bloom. TFTC

Found without any trouble. Lovely park to visit. SL TFTC

A lovely wee park. We came back here for lunch after finding the nearby "Gardener" cache.

#2559. Pecaeful here today, and a quick find. TFTC.

Visited this pleasant park for a quick find with geodatum. Took NZ-Canada TB.

Joint find with edvern. Cache was not particularly well concealed. An attractive little park. TNLN TFTC

time to move on

Found it easy, TFTC

Beautiful park where I have been for a dawn service before on Anzac day.

quick find TFTC

Dropped off From NZ to Canada with Love TB which is trying to travel east: as Levin is, believe it or not, east of Wellington, helping on its way a little.
I hope it fares better in achieving its mission than a previous trackable I dropped off round here to help it get the last few kilometres to its destination of Palmerston North: it ended up in Canterbury and is still there after several months!

A nice quick find. TFTC

A quick easy find which our granddaughters spotted easily, at a nice park. TFTC

See Taybees log sign log book

This one had as look hight and low and all over the places found the cache after 5 mins + looking for it my gps was out by 8 meters TFTC

Had a nice walk around this little park while hunting for this cache. Found it in the end. Saw a few of the local moggies (not to be confused with muggles), it appears we were in their feeding ground.

Took Smiley Face GC. Will move it on ASAP.

Find #687. Sixteen out of Thirty Six. Nearly halfway, also our first find in Levin after eating Subway for lunch. We decided the easiest way to dominate Levin was to drive around the town in an anticlockwise fashion, systematically picking off caches one by one until the area was devoid.

It didn't take us long to locate this one, although the GPS wandered us around a bit. Sometimes it's simpler to forget the GPS and just use instinct, which yielded the cache. Rehid a bit better, and returned to the car with a good 5 minutes on the timer left. SL TFTC.

The hint gave it away! A nice area. TFTC

Found en route from Wellington-Rotorua with my 3 boys. Dropped smiley geocoin. TFTC

10:50 This was found by my grand-daughter & me. During our visit we spoke with the gardener and he said that they had dicovered this cache by accident while weeding AND WONDERED WHAT IT WAS. Fortunately, they decided to leave it where they found it; even though they had wondered if it was a "drug-drop" spot. We note that there is none of the usual labelling and information notes in the cache that would have explained what it was to the gardener. *** This perhaps highlights the importance of having such information with the cache ***
Took TB2B4QT-The Read Coat Of Arms and will move it on in its travels south through NZ. Otherwise we TNLN & SL. TFTC.

Please see my log entry re the need to have explanatory information in and on the cache.

go forth and enjoy

Found this one fairly easily though hiding out of the wind was the big challenge. The kids swapped a couple of items and we picked up our first coin. TFTC

A nice memorial visited in a severe lightning storm (at night).

Heh - Moneydork found this quite quickly whilst I was restling around in the boot trying to find my headlamp. Just got to GZ as MD was finishing the signing. Cheers Gav [9354]

TFTC

Have been past this park many times, never been in until now, nice place. Tried to hide the cache a little deeper, seemed a little obvious. TFTC

A quick park and grab on the way north. The hint was a big help. TFTC

Nice quick find. Left TB

Thanks for the cache TNLNSL

NZ11. Quite a few paths winding through this park. It was not too hard to pick the right spot. Thanks.

A nice quick find here. Good to see this area well looked after, and quite a few flowers about after ANZAC Day.
TFTC.

A great place to visit the day before ANZAC day.
A nice easy find for Junior Spider-Bite.
+ Flip Flop TB
TFTC

No muggles around (probably all at the Balloon event which is where we are off to) so a straight foward find in a great little park. TFTC

had to wait to avoid a few muggles! But once they were gone a nice quick find TFTC

Not sure what geocacher card7ff*boy is up to. Had to clean up this listing by removing several of his comments and he had logged it as found on 3 occasions as well as comments on 8 occasions and his last log listed cache as gone. Drove 30km today to check on the cache and it was right where I left it. Fairly unhappy at the waste of my time.

GONE MISSING

2nd visit to log this as first time there were gardeners about. Quick find as was a little exposed. Didnt see the Geocoin in cache but did drop a TB to be moved on. Signed log TFTC

A nice garden park and a quick find. TFTC.
P.S. After reading next log entry, We're wondering if muggles know this is here, because we are sure we did not leave it exposed in any way! It was replaced correctly and covered over.

A nice little spot I have never noticed. Thanks. An easy find with my boys today

A quick find
- Fairy Katie TB
TFTC

Nice pic, sadly I didn't have much time to explore owing to the fact I had only about 10 minutes to do the cache before being given a ride to a destination not connected with caching.
Please note that Fairy Katie is trying to get to Palmerston North so please help her if you can.
(I would actually have put her here myself but as I wasn't certain when I did Heritage whether I would have a chance to do this one as well I had to put her in the first one I found.)

o nice new home well worth a visit if you are a RSA member and to see it at night the lights look cool

A hasty find as I only had a few minutes to spare. A bit too easy though as cache was partially exposed but at least it saved me some time. Unless I overlooked it in my haste no trackable in the cache. TFTC. Date entry corrected now I am on a PC.and can change it.

Quick find thanks. Enjoyed getting a refreshing shower from the sprinklers in the garden behind cache. Was a hot humid day in Levin. . SL TFTC.

An early start, & cloudy day has kept the muggles away. Left a pet rock - a cat. TFTC

Wow! An amazing memorial and treasured history. TFTC (log as JM88 as the log book was really small)
