Levi Park Shmevi Park (Canterbury) Rolleston, South Island, New Zealand
By shannonp1 on 09-Feb-14. Waypoint GC4YA22

Went and had a look, cache wasn't where it should be and couldn't locate so will archive.

Out with GeoYoungling #3 on a night-time mission. Came up empty on this one...

Couldnt find in at the intersection. Plz provide a hint

No rain, no work, perfect reason to go on a caching adventure! A lot of fun except one cut on the finger ad one poke into the eye. 200km in the car, which involved a slight backtrack for an unexpected errand, and 20k steps. Overall a very nice day! Thanks to all the CO's for placing and maintaining the caches!!

Levi Strauss?? I had the wrong brand of jeans on for this one. Kids stayed in the car rather than helping, little rotters. Thanks to all cache owners for taking the time to place and maintain your caches. BJ25. Find # 1643

Was out in Rolly for work August 2018 and went and found this one Thanks for the effort that goes into placing and maintaining a cache. PS WAYWBG

Found accidentally! Introduced us to geocaching so thanks

Found by accident while out and about. Now the kids want to find more

Good find

Quick find. A few people in the playground and in driveways washing cars but not interested in what I was doing. Tftc

Quick find from the kids! No pen to write in log

Decided to go for a blat on the Airwheel and nab a cache or 2. Had the inReach's and SpotGen3 tracker going as well, see the think below. Roads passed the cache and then back tracked and boom a quick find. No muggle activity near by so was a nice easy find. Cache in good order.

Good find no more room to write

Running out of writing room

Small black container. Good hide.

Great little hiding spot.

Easy

Great find

Didn't take too long with kids

Found it! And the kids left a small treasure...

Mid morning with no one around at all but still so many homes looking out here. Pondered how to start and bingo that was easy. TFTC

Good hide took ages thanks

Quick find during work. Tftc

#13143. This area was muggle central today: loads of kids in the playground, adults out in the garden. That made searching tricky, and I was very pleased to put my hand on the cache. TFTC.

Found on an expedition to Rolleston with StreetWalker, with the main objective of finding all the WPs of the mighty Rolleston Pump Station Trail, plus finding any other caches that were in the vicinity.
A part of Rolly that is new to us (and news to geocaching maps as well). We were a bit worried on approach as we thought (by the name) that the cache was in the park which was full of kids. Fortunately it wasn't though we still felt a bit dodgy searching here. Luckily it didn't take SW long to find the cache. TFTC.

Kids loved finding it. TFTC

Another great find thanks

Well this one was a bit of a question of should we or shouldn't we as two guys across the road standing out front having a chat, but they were more interested in talking than us, so out jumped rayzr2 and with a notebook in hand made it look like he was checking the drains and made a succesful find all unspotted. tftc found with rayzr2 and chiko1

Found all safe and secure with team_macdonald and Chiko1 tftc

On another fun road trip with tmann421.

A nice quick find for us here. TFTC

On a geocaching road trip and enjoying the drive around.
We soon had the container located - found in good condition.

SL Thanks for the cache.

Quick find by Miss 14.

Way too many people around today so didn't even get to nail down where it might be. Will try another day

Tftc

Cute find

Bit tricky with cars, and then windows overlooking this area. Found when I could have a good look and then getting it back - - - - What we do for caching!! TFTC

Wow, someone put up a fence. That and it being 10pm makes it much easier to be stealthy than my last attempt here. Spent about 5 seconds on this one, I got lucky this time. Cheers

Lots of houses here now. Might have gone missing or simply no good at looking

Came out to visit relations in the new subdivision, unfortunatley the Navman didn't have the new roads in it and Googlemaps had roads in it that aren't even complete yet! We could see the houses but get to them! Luckily there was a cache nearby for us to cool our heals while M made a phone call to get us back on track. Cache was quickly in hand and log signed. Interesting position for the nearby survelliance camera to be pointing back at it's pole... TFTC!

Quick find, it needed to be as it is so exposed.

TFTC

Love this park thanks for the hide

No luck here tonight. Looked for a while then felt too conspicuous to all the houses

Yes! Success with our first Cache, 9 year old boy is hooked and can't wait for the next stealth mission, so much fun. Definitely wait till after dark!

Had a bit of spare time today so decided to pick a cache quite close to my home. Arrived near GZ but got confused because of the road not showing up on the GC app. However, managed to sort it out and got to the correct GZ. Saw the security camera and got a bit hesitant but noticed it was facing the other way and I was good. I managed to find the cache quickly and sign. Excellent hide, thank you!

It never ceases to amaze me how Rolleston has grown. Last time I was here (at the cache's GZ) workers were hard at work creating the nearby playground and performing the landscaping and I had to depart without even attempting a find. No one seen today - probably everyone was either at work or inside eating lunch - so I appeared to have the place to myself. Nice quick find. TFTC shannonp1

I had to sign off a few for today and thought I would visit Rolleston for a change.

This area is now built-up and stealth should be used though you are out in plain sight of quite a few houses.

Cheers for the cache.

Quick find on a caching day in Rolleston. We wanted to do one of the nearby trails and decided to use the bicycles. So today it was cycling in Rolleston and after that the trail. Thanks for placing all the caches.

Easy find thanks

Quick park and grab

First for the day, trying to get 200.TFTC 24 October 2015 05:47

Found it

Quick find.

Found it

Easy

Did not find. But had a fun play in the playground.

TFTC, out with geokid and her friends

Very sneaky and tip: be stealthy!!!

Easy find fun too

Took a family new to geocaching with us. Good playground too.

A day away around the Lincoln, Rolleston, Leeston area. Had spent some time solving puzzles in preperation and managed to find quite a few too. Lots of Metal Mania (although my database didn't seem to load them all so I may have to return!), quite a few Angry Birds a handful of Mad caches and a smattering of others. Really enjoyed Drainage Hole. Thanks all for enabling an addict. Special thanks to Sveren - for the caches and for the chat when we happen to be at a cache together.

First one we have found. Took awhile but got there in the end.

Cool playground for kids of all ages, mine loved the tree trunck rocket

6963. Out on a geocaching trip in the Rolleston area today. We did five before lunch and six after lunch. A very relaxed pleasant day. This was cache number three and yet another very easy one. We parked just down the road and had it in hand in about 30 seconds. Nice looking new residential area. Thanks for the cache. Rodney and Iris.

Had to wonder what the neighbours would be thinking if they noticed a couple of crazy women fossicking around in the drain in the pouring rain - but at least we found it! TFTC

Today was the day we had set aside for a Rolleston trip. Turned out to be pouring when we met up- so started with Maccas to steel our resolve!! Then off we went- it was down to just drizzle by then.
Felt rather exposed- but it was such a grotty day that most sensible people were tucked away indoors somewhere. Fairly quick find- thankfully! thanks shannonp1

Thanks

Thanks, never realised how big rolleston was getting

A nice quick wee find. TFTC. Cheers Bo

TFTC. A few spare hours on a Saturday afternoon - it would be rude not to fill them with cache chasing. So a quick conversation with flobberworm! and we were off for the fair pastures of Rolleston to see what we could find.
I was pleased to sign the log on this previously DNFed cache. Gosh these houses were just framing when I was here 9 months ago - now they are peoples homes.
Thanks shannonp1 for placing the cache.

After a couple of months of solving puzzles, decided to head down to Christchurch and tackle a "few" caches in the Rolleston area.

This cache formed part of a series of quick finds as we made our way to the start of the Metal Mania series (or at least the ones that we had solved!)

#3921

Out and about with purdiepurdie in Rolleston finishing off the caches there we hadn't done previously...luckily no-one working around here today as it was pouring with rain! TFTC

Quite a few tradesmen backwards and forwards but managed to find it without looking too dodgy. TFTC (1703)

On a FTF mission with TG and I needed to mop up Rolleston before heading home. This was one of the stops on the 'way home'.
Last for the evening now. Better get off home.

Thanks for the cache.

So much development happening out this way!

Muggle father missed on his first attempt. Found it after looking again! Very quiet here today

Found with the royal mouse.

Luckily we went straight to it! Muggles in the playground but not interested in us. TFTC

Felt a bit awkward in here,but got down on hands and knees,to keep out of sight.Needn't have worried,as we only had the Big Brown Dog watching us from behind his Fence.Found in the 2nd place we had both
looked.TFTH

Found it with in 10 minutes

very excited to find thios cache...as we are new to geocaching

Great neighbourhood....found it easily!

Soon found, but now there are homes everywhere

#4129 @1145
On duty babysitting the grandkids for the day, and they were keen to go caching. So we headed off to explore Rolleston. The second playground of the day. The kids really enjoyed playing here. My grandson (2.5) found this one. Another great disguise. TFTC.

Will come back at night,

Great camo

Had to get a cache for the day and failed to find Bronte Way so a quick dash to here at about 11.30pm. Not around at that time of course so a quick and easy search and cache was soon in hand. Great camo job. TFTC

Found with Sevren tftc

Cool camo! TFTC

Another nice day down south

Tftc

A nice quiet and quick find.. Thanks for the hide

A quick grab today with no muggles this time. TFTC

Great day caching in Canterbury, this was one of 70 or more caches found, Cool start to the day,with the odd shower but fine for most of the day my first big caching road trip in a long time. - Many thanks to all the cache placers

Thanks Bitsprayer.

Quite amazing how quickly these buildings develop in this area. We were forced out by Muggles last time just pouring the floor slab for this now completed house.
Thanks
erninz

Will be a lot more activity here soon

Had to be quick here as lots of workers about. TFTC.

Nice easy find in lovely new area. TFTH
