Hi ziggiau,
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

We searched for thirty minutes and came up empty handed.
It may require a cache check as it is definitely not there. Sorry ziggiau

Me and my grandma went looking for it! It was an amazing find and pretty hard because it was laying on the grass!
Found the peaceful park and the picnic table well enough but unfortunately it appears the cache has been moved. I was the only soul there so I even got up on the table to have a not so subtle look.
No luck I'm afraid

When we arrived we looked at the hint, it seemed pretty obvious that it would be hidden in the tops of the picnic shelter right? We checked all of the spots where it could be include the nearby low hanging branches of the tree. We may give it another crack if someone says they have found it.
Seriously, had 4 looking, got to the stage we weren’t being subtle anymore. Found some keys and a number of pieces of junk, no luck…
Checked all of the obvious spots as best we could with muggles around, no luck unfortunately; will have to come back later!
Seems that someone moved the cache a bit, making it very hard to reach. Creative use of surrounding greenery got it
Kids are having fun on the play equipment. Rock climbing wall is surprisingly difficult. Teenage boys, being teenage boys, insisted on climbing all over the picnic table.
A lovely late night find, though I definitely felt a little exposed whilst I retrieved the cache.
I was glad to be doing this at night, during the day, with muggles about, this would be tricky.
Tftc.

Easy find in such a surprising park, hard to get with muggles looking on from their home, had to wait a while for an opportunity but certainly not the worst spot to wait! Thanks
Nice spot a little more different to the last few I’ve found also a nice quiet park would
Be nice for picnic too! TFTC

In the area today and noted the cache has been replaced. Redeeming my DNF from the past. TFTC ziggiau
I passed by this unknown to me park early before work and I was able to grab the cache quite quickly on the likely spot. There was plenty of bird life singing away while I signed the log. Thank you for me bringing me to this park!
Thanks for replacing. A nice hidden park popular with muggles who love sitting at or looking at GZ! Muggled out of this one last time I came. Happy to add a smiley.
Sounds like this one is missing. Will get a new container together and replace soon.
After a fairly extensive search this morning we have to log a DNF. I suspect it maybe missing.
Found while caching with hubby GrimRaider on a trip to Sydney to see Queen.

Parked the car and then it was just a short walk along towards gz. What a strange park this is, being completely surrounded by houses. Read the hint and quickly spotted what I needed. Fortunately there were no muggles nearby or this could have been a much more difficult challenge. Grabbed the cache, signed the log, and then replaced it all as found. Found as part of Streak Week. TFTC
We were surprised to see such a large internal park in this residential area. The park must be a valuable asset to all residents. Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks ziggiau for the cache.
Nice easy park and grab. Can't say I've seen too many parks like this. I had the whole area to myself. TFTC
Had to be at the airport early today to drop off my wife and daughter for their Europe trip. This meant taking the day of work and as I was with nothing to do by 10 am I went to search for caches on my way home.

Here we can find quickly.
Thank you and greetings from Germany send Moorhelmi

This is a nice enclosed park. Just right for dog play, shame the sign says 'Dogs on Leash'.
The park was deserted and it was an easy find early this morning, wouldn't be if there were muggles using the park, they'd wonder what you were doing.
T 1.5 - well its a 1.75 for me - oh dear!
TFTC # 3061, Streak day # 425

Was out in area today and noticed I had actually already found this on the 22nd April with Ash.Kate TFTC
My last find for the day.
I love the small out of the way parks that geocaching takes me to, the ones that are hidden away from passing eyes.
They’re examples that the city grew up organically and that there was a time we weren’t obsessed with optimising every inch of space.
Thanks.

Needing a cache for my streak while heading to the CO house, I couldn’t pass up her very first hide.
What a great little park, well kept and clean.
Cheers

ziggiau I found your cache Word Is Out on 22/4/18, 10:12 am. This is my find 1965 and find # 1 today. A quick and easy find. Thanks for the cache! TNSLLN
Late night caching with master 10. Great secluded park - has us fooled for a sec (getting in) but easy hide. Tftc
Cool little park that you would never know existed unless you are a local or a geocacher. Easy find, TFTC.
What a lovely hidden away park/playground which I had to myself today. Although I heeded the hint it still took a while to locate the little feller. TFTC ziggiau.
We have the class 'pet' with us this week and wanted to take him out geocaching and share this adventure in his book so that other people can learn about the fun things we do as a family. Geokids and I came for a play after school. Made an easy find whilst eating afternoon tea. TFTC and for bringing us out to play.
*Logged in July 18 as I noticed I had missed logging this previously - have photo evidence if required.

18:40 This one is a LOT easier after the sun goes down.
Have put in some swaps and a larger logsheet. I've removed the blank raffle tickets. You'll still need your own pen/cil though.

My 600th find! We literally pulled up and ran to GZ as we were in danger of being late back to pick up the geo kids from school. Thankfully the clear hint had us holding it immediately. A slight moment of panic occurred when we discovered there was no log inside. All I had was an old raffle ticket to use as replacement, but hey... It did the job! Needs new log but otherwise looking good. TFTC and the milestone!
A desperate drive-by cache to try and snag AWTYOW's 600th find - and success was found here! We had no time left so needed a quick find. We found that here. We replaced the log as the cache was empty, although all we had was a raffle ticket so it will need a decent replacement soon. TFTC
Had to wait for a muggle dad and 2 kids to leave from GZ but then a super quick find. No log inside though. TFTC. Nice park
A quick tour through the suburbs surrounding Kingsgrove and Oatley.
No paper in the box. Then you're punished with a photo of me!

The word is definitely out, this is a great hidden park!
Found this cache on a park crawl with the geo kiddies. They loved this park with its large playground, nice spots to sit for morning tea and resident duck. Not a muggle in sight this morning so finding the cache was a breeze. Thanks for the find ziggiau and introducing us to this little gem.

I had a day of meetings at Potts Hill today but took the opportunity to grab a few caches before I started and after I finished.
A nice easy find as I made my way around the burbs.

#6850 Arrived to Australia for three days ago, I and Rokkan will take some caches in Australia.
This weekend did we fly to Sydney. Our goal was to find the oldest cache in Australia. But of course did we logg some more caches in the city. Now is the temperatur over 50 degrees. I supose that it is only crasy Swedish cacher who is out caching now. Thanks for the cache and greetings from Sweden.
