Thanks to all who have found this one. I'm archiving this since it's lost, and maybe someone else will put a new one in this little park.
Everyone - Please don't go looking for this at the moment. I would like to go check and make sure it is still there before anyone else attempts this. I am on vacation at the moment (Hawaii!!!) and I will check it as soon as I return. Thanks for your patience.
Spent today chasing up mysteries we had solved but not found south of us.
BettyBoo3747 and I had mixed fortunes at this.
We were here a few days ago, but muggles were planted next to GZ and even though we stayed and ate our lunch, they out waited us.
Today we were in the area so we returned, but not a cache could we find.
Thanks, Robmc.

I started searching in the wrong object but then I checked the GPS again and GZ was 12 metres away. I moved to the new location and made a quick find. Nice place to sit and fill in the log.

Did a few with my girlfriend's son after macca's, it is about 8pm and we found this one easily,,,TFTC
Found while dodging muggles on the swings mand picnicing families.
Returned it and covered it better.

A quick find on my early morning stroll. My geosense said the cache would be there from about 150m away and there it was. Lovely park. Shame about the freeway next door. Do the cars ever stop?
I have been to this pretty little park previously for another cache and back again today for a nice quick find in the obvious spot. There were quite a few jogging muggles about so very happy not to make myself conspicuous.
Thanks for the cache potter23.

Finally found one from the cacher who started me off in this awesome game!
On the way home from a quiz night (a long way) from an empty home so didn't need to rush.
First grab was around 2300hrs and final around 0040hrs, gotta love midnight urban caching!
Less traffic and virtually no muggles!!!
Cache was not hidden and very easily seen. Was also suffering from water retention but log was mostly dry! Drained out the water, signed and re-hid better than when found. TFTC!
Thanks Potter23! we must cache again together soon!

We headed SOR today hoping to be able to log the nearby challenge cache and managed to grab a few others whilst in the area.
This is the 2nd cache we have found at this location. This was alot easier than the previous puzzle that was here.

I am sure it was a couple of cachers on bikes that left just as I arrived.
Nice easy find.

Ouch. Car load of muggles showed up while I was writing the log. Tried to be discrete returning it to the hide.
Lovely park if not for the traffic volume. Easy find as it was exposed. Have hidden with debris. TFTC.
Out enjoying the sunshine thought we would finish off a few we left out .....this was a quick find TFTC ...
A really terrific hide. Mind you, did have to search a bit. Well done and thanks for the find.
Nice spot and a quick find. Luckily the muggles nearby were not interested in what I was doing.
Thanks potter23...excellent hiding place.
Thanks potter23...excellent hiding place.
Good spot for a break while on the treadly, amongst some magnificent trees. Thought I was in for a hefty search as many hidey holes but cache in my hands in seconds. Thanks potter23 for bringing me here.
Found on a sunny afternoon. Cache was exposed, so I covered it with a bit of leaf litter. TFTC
I'm on holiday in the south-west corner of WA with Triciac2 Day 8 of our trip and we are having our last three days in Perth. Today with Triciac2 happy to head out on a sight-seeing trip with our muggle host, I joined up with jasenjanine for a few hours fun caching. A pleasure to catch up This was a quick find, and the little one enjoyed the whistle in the container. TFTC, potter23.
Out for some caching with IolantheK on holidays from Qld, we parked nearby as we were headed for a walk along the river Not before grabbing this cache, of course
We approached the tree and a quick find was made... Master 1 happily inspected the cache and found delight in blowing the whistle After prying it from his hands, we were soon moving on to the next... TFTC potter23 [^] Nice park.

Thanks and greetings from Belgium !

Found the cache completely exposed with no covering - It is a miracle that it hadn't been muggled. I quickly covered it up so it will be a bit less conspicuous. TFTC
Had a little free time prior to starting my shift so crossed over to South Perth to grab a few caches.
Quick grab in very quiet park, even on a Sunday.
Cheers for the cache.

Was early for a morning with Mistraluna on an Anzac Day of caching. So walked down from Canning HWay and rotated around object until saw a hint o blue.

Was starting to get withdrawal symptoms from not being able to get out caching for a few days (only have two weeks school holidays, and don't want to waste them with mundane things like gardening, housework, blah, blah, blah), so gave AmstradKid a call. Second find here, and typical of me, I looked in the wrong places first. Found it though. Thanks potter23

I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to find this one today. The park was overrun with people when I got here.
I walked up to GZ to narrow down where it was, but there were some people sitting on the bench seat right at GZ, so I walked around and pretended to take some photos of the trees.
After they moved on I had a quick look around the tree and could see the cache in plain view, so I quickly grabbed it out. After signing the log I tried to cover the cache up with some more leaf litter.
Thanks for the hide potter23!

[:(!] Went for a bit of a caching run before tea, parked the geocar as close as possible to GZ and walked the rest of the way, on arrival at GZ the cache was in hand in a matter of minutes.

A quick find with iluvtrekking in a deserted park. Can remember doing another cache here some time ago, think it was the same spot too.
New cache. Empty caching day. Walking distance from work. Lunchtime. No brainer. Off I go got a quick find. Thanks Potter 23 for the hide.
As mentioned by Jacaro44, I was sprung big time. I was riding through the carpark (which I do about 4 times per week) and eagle eyed Jacaro44 spotted me. It was great to meet his two grandsons who waited patiently while we had a "quick" half hour chat. Thanks for the cache potter23.
P.S. - Not sure about the USA stickers; I'm a huge fan of the red maple leaf!

We were accompanied by our two Geo-Grandsons this afternoon as we checked out a few caches not too far from home. A quick find here by 12 year old GGS Marcus. He was very excited to make the find. Surprisingly, the park was almost deserted while we completed our task. Just as we were driving away, I spotted another cacher arriving on her Geobike. Nice to catch-up again KB.

Stopped by on way to morning coffee and was surprised to see a blank log.....and an FTF prize!!....lovely old tree and a very popular spot ......thank you potter23 for the cache and the generous prize.
Don't know what is happening here. As a result of MDV's log we went back to check. The container that held the log Barnzey12 and I signed is no longer there and in its place is a different container and log with MDV's log in it. Perhaps the CO can clarify what happened.
Really sorry for any confusion.
I think what happened - there were 2 caches trying to be published at the same time. Mine had been in a queue since another puzzle cache was placed in this park previously and was recently archived.
Mine got published while another cache was waiting to be published. They have since gotten notification that there is another cache in this park and so can't double up in such a small area. . .
So for about a day, there were 2 caches in a very similar spot. . . one published, the other not published.
The correct cache had a TB as a FTF prize, and has Olives Reserve with the coordinates written on it.
Once again, very sorry for any confusion.

FTF! Saw this get published whilst still in bed after a 16hr day at work, so jumped in the geo mobile and made a quick find at GZ. The contents seem a little damp, but otherwise all good. Thanks potter23. Cheers Barnzy12
