Out for a late morning / afternoon dander with mrs_sgtzara and Tigra, our German Shepherd Dog with the aspiration being to find 11 caches. Why 11 you may ask? We'd our eyes on 4 caches in Bog Meadows and 7 caches in Falls Park which we'd yet to find which would result in those areas being awash of smiley faces.
By the time we'd finished though, we'd only found 7 out the 11 we'd targeted having DNF'd 4, 2 in Bog Meadows and 2 in Falls Park. No big dramas though, we enjoyed exploring these parts of Belfast and it just means we'll have an excuse to return sometime.
It was a lovely morning for a walk, reasonably mild for this time of year with the sun making a welcome appearance too .... bliss! A fair number of other folk where out and about taking advantage of the good weather too.
Once we'd finished caching, we stopped past Spoon Street in Ballyhackamore to enjoy a 'fro-yo', a welcome refreshment after a lovely walk.
Anyhow, as for this cache, we made our way out to this one after finding Falls Park 1 http://coord.info/GC5DV0X
Now I realised that there were 5 x DNF's recorded on this cache since it was last found on 18/05/2015 but that never puts me off.
We arrived at GZ and having already read the hint, were satisfied that it was the correct spot. The council workers have been at their work here though travellingsilently, the tree in question has been pruned sometime in the past few months taking (we believe) the cache with them.
With this log being the 6th DNF in a row for same, I'd recommend a wee maintenance check when you get the chance.

Got to the co-ords quite easily but once we commenced our search it was with no luck it didn't turn up, one of the minions nearly got caught by the barbed wire in the area too, previous dnfs had also been mentioned so maybe it could be checked
