Or did I?

Time to let it go, as much as geo-mum won't like it.

The garden is too well maintained to hide it anywhere near it, and the older folk are wary of the younger folk with their gadgets.
 
11-Aug-13
Time to have a check and a re-think about the location.

(You are correct, it's NOT in the garden).
 
13-Jul-13
We have visited this cache several times & it has been missing every time, including today. We do not want to trample the beautiful garden & given that we believe it was on the bench we are certain that it is now gone. Perhaps the owners of this garden are removing it due to the high number of people trying to find it & a better location could be sought?

Thanks anyway Pirate Rock.

Over the Easter long weekend, we couldn't help but find a few of these goodies Smile Mr. Pearce decided to look on the Geocaching Map and saw that there were heaps that we hadn't found in Gawler, so off we went.. 45 minutes later, we were cache-ready at the Gawler Central Station.. Anywho, we've just gone off 300, so we're aiming towards 400! *fingers crossed* Not long now!

Unfortunately, this happened to be one of the DNF's Sad We searched and search then read some logs and found that we weren't the only one.. bummer.. aww well, maybe next time Very Happy

A beautiful garden. I had a seat on every seat and thought about what I was doing wrong but still couldn't find.

Bring some bread as the magpies are so friendly you can hand feed them.

Thanks for the cache Pirate Rock Very Happy

3962nd total find at around 15:33

We thought we may not be able to do this cache, as a gardner arrived on a huge ride on mower, and deposited a trailer right next to GZ, just as we approached from the other path.

Luckily he was too busy concentrating on his job to take more than a passing glance at us.

Took: Nothing
Left: Nothing
Thanks Pirate Rock for the cache

Needed a cache for today: felt a bit tired and didn't feel like walking or doing a multi.
This one came up on my phone and fitted what I wanted perfectly.
A lovely spot scented with violets as I walked in.
A nice seat upon which to rest.
Beautiful Magpies which came so close I could almost have touched them and I guess the Magpie youngster was the only beautiful baby I was likely to see as I didn't enter the hospital Wink
Nice easy locus cache. I SL and returned cache then just sat enjoying the park for a while, when a man turned up and started handfeeding the Magpies Smile
TFTC and the rest in a nice place Pirate Rock Smile

Another part of Gawler that we would have missed. A very lovely spot. Thanks for bringing us here.
 
04-Mar-12
The co-ords are spot on making this one a quick find. Thankfully as we had to wait out several coming and going while we held the cache in our hands. Once on our bike an elderly gentleman parked himself at GZ. SL TFTC

16-Jul-11
To find a micro with a new log is a pleasure as all the ones I found so far require a degree in origami to get them back into the container [:p]. Beautiful Babies was returned back in its crib perfectly. Finding was also a pleasure as my fingers probed and duly discovered in the first place I thought to look. Loved it! Peaceful, serene location too.

TFTC Pirate Rock.

Log book has been replaced. Please ensure that you only initial the logbook, and not sign it - it helps leave room for the next cacher. Big Grin

After finishing up at the eldest baby's birthday party we thought it was only appropriate to find this cache! We remember coming here almost 5 years ago to meet the first of these beautiful babies and they have gone on to be part of a most beautiful family. Thanks for the party and the cache.
 
22-Jun-11

OMG this was my first micro and wow! lol Found with devilslilsister and Bigblueal

A pleasant small memorial park. The odd thing was the placement of a syringe/sharps container right in the middle. It took us some time to locate the cache as the coordinates were about 8m out. The cache is certainly a nano. TFTC Pirate Rock.
 
26-Feb-11
Neat little micro in a park very suitable for memories.

Freddo hates nanos.

Although our tadpoles were born elsewhere, I agree that this hospital does provide great care when needed. A well-kept, pretty garden.

A nano Sad
This cache was found easily by geowife. Opened it up to find a nano logbook that you could actually sign Smile Most other nanos are full & you cant sign them. SL TFTC
This area is very nice [^], pity there wasnt a spot for a larger cache here!
 
22-Nov-10
A beautiful little spot, and a nice memorial garden. We both searched for this one, and it was only after the spot was checked at least three times that we finally saw it. You might want to audit this log - it appears that some people are above signing Twisted. TFTC.
