Another look, another DNF - would the CO please confirm whether or not it's still there?

This cache has been replaced in more than one occasion so time to free up the location for perhaps another cache in the vacinity by someone else.

Unless it's a bread clip we didn't find it... We saw it was most likely missing before we came..

TLC's find gave us a glimmer of hope so came back for a 3rd look and didn't find it again. We did however find a piece of logbook on the ground.

Not there

A muggle free search in the rain but the cache eluded us. The ducks here are really hungry or friendly and we attracted quite the crowd, looking at the size of some of them they need to swim off their breakfast. We were about to give it away when I knelt on it, the nano was lying in the sand. Then we spent ten minutes trying to open the thing without success. We drove to our parents nearby and utilised some tools to open it up and clean the threads applied some silicone oil to the cap and opens much easier now.
Thank you for the cache jasali.
Cheers TLC

Went for another look having spoken to the previous cache owner who said it should be any to find. It's not there.

Didnt find this one. Maybe check if it is still there please

Looked in EVERY nook and cranny and couldn't find it. Can you please confirm it's still there so that we can try again? Thanks

Smallest nano I've found to date. Gps cords slightly off though.
Lovely park. Turf

Tftc Cheers

Found it with trav

I have seen so many parks concealing caches since I have been in this state but must admit that this would have to rank among the prettiest. It was made special for me by the large variety of bird life here, especially the very friendly flock of corellas. One little one was particularly inquisitive, I thought he was going to get into the car and travel home with us.

A quick find here on the way home from Mandurah.

Thanks jasali for the cache.

Tftc

Found thanks

Super small! Hard to get the paper out...

Thanks for the cache Found it and left my initials. What a lovely park!

Found it on a late arvo bike ride with the kids. Wasn't able to sign the log as we didn't have writing tools.
Thanks for the fun.

There is a new nano. You will need a log retrieval tool to remove the log from the nano.

Please replace the cache exactly where you found it as this is a high muggle area.
Thanks

TFTC! Found on an evening caching run after dropping the geowife at the cinemas nearby. Thanks

No lid on the nano

Found it! But it needs repairing. Left in the spot.

Along with cachedupjohnsons

Such a cool little find, the kids ran around with the ducks as well

Thanks

A quick find with friends we're introducing to Geocaching. We're out exploring all over WA on this Anzac long weekend. It's such beautiful hot weather, like always here in WA.
Geokids scored another 1. Now they're beating us!
Thanks for bringing us to such a glorious location. We all loved it here. The kids fed the ducks, the adults relaxed on the chairs & the scenery was perfect. We are enjoying checking out our new area where we live.

Been meaning to come and get this one for a while. Nice easy find close to home. TFTC

Found it! Thanks!

Quick find whilst out for a night time walk with the pooch. TFTC

Nice easy first find TFTC

Finally! Attempts in the past have been thwarted. TFTC.

Hard to find it was a nano. Was good

Picked my daughter up from a friends nearby so I had to stop and grab this. Nice little park.
Thanks.

TFTC

Great find by one of our geo teens. Thank you

With this Nano cache we had great help from the community and I also suggest bring any geokids alon for a day at the lake GREAT HIDE

Thank you Luna Maya for replacing the cache. Hopefully it doesn't go walk about again

(We did go and look for it after you couldn't find it but the gardeners were there)

I checked on this one today in between errands ( as previous CO). Definitely gone - so I replaced with another nano ( the fourth this year ). I hope that you don't mind & have better luck than I have had with this one Jasali. Thanks for adopting this hide - it is such a beautiful park. SL TFTC Jasali

I am not sure that the cache is still there. Will try & check soon if you wish. Too many gardeners today to search properly ...

Stop in to make a clever little hide here..TFTC

Luna visits " La Palma Square Reserve " was transferred from Luna Maya to user jasali

Originally logged under clan-wallace, now relogging finds under new name.

Out to do a bit of shopping on our bikes, so we took the opportunity to grab a couple of caches. Thought we'd get this one quickly but it was better concealed the we thought. TFTC.

Unable to find it

Yay we found it After sitting down for a rest:)

Having fun geocaching with the dog:)

A quick sneaky retrieval and signing of the log as muggles were sitting in the park. TFTC

I had decided the other night that I would drag muggle partner this way so I could cache and what a beautiful sunny day today turned out to be and I was so glad I was out caching

When I downloaded my todays caches the other night my premium membership cut out at the same time so I only ended up with co-ords of premium caches and had no hints, logs or descriptions so I think I did pretty well finding some today

Was an easy find but just not sure on how I was going to get it but a pen comes in handy, a bit skinnier than fingers

TFTC

It is a lovely park like most of them in the Rockingham shire area

YAY!!! Another DNF becomes a find (although it does help when the cache hasn't gone missing! lol)
TFTC

Tftc took the new gps for a run and found this cache at ground zero iPhone was at about 2m

Easy find.

Gorgeous cache, beautiful park. So excited to be the third person on the log.

I checked on this cache today. It is safe and sound. Exactly where I left it

Looked about but today was not my day to find this cache. Will have to attempt it on another day.

Could not find this nano today. I had a cache in this park that kept walking as well.

Was planning on a quiet day and doing some gardening, but after a visit and chat with Mistraluna we talked ourselves into hitting the road and seeking out a bunch of solved but as yet unfound puzzle caches.
With our list of puzzle caches now found we had some time left to tackle a couple of others in the area and so we came to this nice little square. The cache was quickly spotted, signed and replaced, and then off to track down another.
Thanks for the cache Luna Maya.

No luck with this one. Spent a good 20 minutes looking. Maybe it isn't there!!!

Nano replaced - #3 - let's see how long this one lasts

After dark but still gave it a good shot... third DNF in a row on this cache - missing?
Or maybe we are just in need of a trip to specsavers lol... oh how I hate Nanos (which funnily enough is a cache we did find tonight lol)

I only replaced this one 2 months ago I am disabling until I check it ...

No luck finding the cache but managed to find a pair of tweezers

Unless it was the dog poo no luck here

Round and round we went. No matter how much time we spend in Secret Harbour, we cannot get used to the layout of the streets. We followed our GPSR this way and that for a good while until we finally found GZ . A great wee park and it was nice to sit and watch the ducks for a few minutes. Made the grab and signed the log

TFTC Luna Maya

Nice easy find. TFTC LunaMaya

Thanks Chwiliwr, the cache had gone. Pleased to hear that the locals were friendly. I have replaced the cache , good to go

I was interrupted in my search by a curious local wanting to discuss some local issue in the park but I'm reasonably sure that the cache wasn't there and I couldn't check further after he left because another came and sat down to have a smoko.

It may pay to check if I'm right or not.

It's official....THe Slats are not good at finding Nano's!! We are having a few more successful finds when it comes to these little caches but not this one. We checked in all the places we thought were possible but nothing found. We'll be back another day. Pretty park though with very vocal ducks!!

Good cache, well placed especially near a nice looking pond like that!

You ripper. Looked for this one on 3 separate occasions, as I'm a newbie. Shame the geokids are at school and missed it. Good hide.!! I'll sit back and enjoy the pond for a bit.

On my way to the event this morning and I had a little time to kill. So I thought I'd stop in here for a quick find. What a lovely little area, and I found our new house (for sale on the street)
While I was busy signing the log I was witness to a small verbal domestic. Fun times!
Thanks for the cache Luna Maya!

I found this one with Mum & Dad (jasenjanine) . We were getting sprayed by the fountain ... TFTC Luna Maya

After finding the new Drovers caches today, we took the long way home & found a few caches along the way... We found a nice spot to park & made our way over to GZ. The kids enjoyed this one as we were all getting sprayed by the fountain A quick find was made here. TFTC Luna Maya

Didn't have a pen but will come back tomorrow and sign the log thanks!

Good hide! Took us a while but we got it.

Found it - thanks!

Found it in the end!! Nearly gave up.

The geo-pooches enjoyed watching the ducks and fountain while we searched for the cache with iluvtrekking. Thanks Luna Maya.

A nice quick find with richlink. Thanks Luna Maya

Thanks for the cache, almost gave up but mrs finally got it.

After a morninng spent with the CO placing other caches, we hit the computer and tried to sort out the listings. Whilst out and about in her neck of the woods, we swung by here so I could grab this one. Cute little park. Thanks Luna Maya

Clever... I love this park!

Fantastic spot great cache thank you... Loved this one

YIPPEE.....FTF at 6.55am.
Just having the first coffee for the morning when the phone started making that familiar sound alerting me there was some new caches coming out and then i saw one was down in Secret Harbour so i told the geohubby forget your coffee go and get the cache. when he arrived there was only 1 muggle there walking there dog so he was able to find the cache nice and quick. Lovely park TFTC Luna Maya
