Missing second time round, can be too high traffic area so opting to archive this one.
Didn't find it and after checking other close by points, am pretty sure it's gone
Will check out the cache as not found by multiple cachers. Hope to get it back up and running soon!
I looked for this a couple of days ago and then brought my muggle hubbie back today to have a look for it but no luck. I suspect that this cache has gone walkabout...
DO NOT open any ice cream containers my sis thought it was the catch but it was NOT . DO NOT OPEN IT
Just us and the seagulls in the park today, thanks for the cache, much appreciated.
Yaaaaaay! Searched for a while untill one of the kids found it! Was a cold night with many mozzies! TFTC
took a little while to get my hands on the cache after not just looking where I thought it would be, the log seems to already be wet and managed to write on the log without ripping the paper, thanks for the placement
This took us a while even though we had a fair idea. I have a suspicion it was dislodged from its hiding place and was laying nearby. Placed back where we think it should live.
This one drove AstoriaD and I crazy but we got it eventually. I think it may have fallen from the intended position so we put it back where we thought would be it's rightful home.
30/05/17 10:35 I've played in this park many times when I was a kid. Stayed at the same house, backing onto it, last night. A cache was a good inducement to return. Easy find but log a tad big for the container & is ripped. Last paper sig was in March. Thanks for this, Cheers, GC.
Just a quick hunt - cricket game on so didn't want to draw attention. We'll be back.
Great weather today so had to get out and get caching. GPS not working properly so relied on the hint. A good hide in a park that I hadn't been to. There was a cricket match going on too. TFTC.
Found while visiting New Plymouth to give a mapping update - including giving the park a name!
Many thanks - great hide

GPS has taken me the long way home from the Mega. Finding some good caches along the way, TFTC
I am staying in New Plymouth with my sister on a trip from Australia for a week before heading up to the mega event, so taking the opportunity to grab some caches in the area. Today I was down here where after a dismal start to the day things just kept improving with the weather and by now the sun was shining and it was a beautiful day.
Last for the day and I walked up from the street not realising there was on site parking. A short hunt and it was found quick enough, I have seen a few of these over the ditch. There was some girls soccer training going on nearby but nothing happening near GZ. Thanks smilezr4eva.

Found with Trayc.g, logging now as I have my own account. great hide! cool park too.
Out & about for school holidays and a trip to the park. Good spot for a cache, nice hide!!
Brushed through all the shrubbery in the surroundings, searched the trees and everything...
Found lots and lots of junk in the greenery, but no cache. =u,u=
The travelling fox is disappointed =<,<=

Sneaky, but didn't foil me was onto straight away. Nice park, a couple of ogs having a great ol time. Cheers for the cache.
Third find for the day. Young group of boys soccer training here today but no muggles around the cache spot. Neat pull! Safely tucked away TFTC
Found, good hide and flash cache, found with theTRUEnetsyrk and our 14 month old daughter. Thanks
Watching a football match here and pleased to find a cache so close. Easy find
Cool little hiding spot. Log is very worn and quite fill, may need a replacement
found nice easy parking spot and lovely field, TFTC log book may need a look at, getting a little worn
Early start this morning, so decided to stop in and find this one before I leave New Plymouth. Tricky wee hide, but the hint made it obvious where it must be. TFTC
On holiday at my Auntys' new place, straight accross the road, saw there was one here so had to get it. Awesome cache, definately a favourite so far. Great clue, great hide and fairly obvious as to where it could be once found. TFTC.
In the Naki for WOMAD and found some time for geocaching of course. The GPSr took me right to GZ where the cache was quickly found. I have a similar cache so had a bit of an idea of what I may be looking for. Signed log and left as found. Thanks for the placement smilezr4eva.
This cache was one of the many caches we found on our 6 day campervan journey from Tauranga to Lower Hutt via Waihi, Cambridge, New Plymouth and along the west coast to Wanganui and back to the Hutt. A mighty and enjoyable journey which took us to many great and iconic parts of the north island and of course some great geocaches. Many thanks to the many CO's for the great cache placements and for bringing us to so many new places. Sorry about the generic log but 200 plus to log. TFTC
Good hide thank you! This one is close to the house great for a beginner on a beautiful sunny day walking the dog!
I parked om the opposite side of the park and walked over. I checked a few places before I found the cache. While I was walking back to the car, it rained very hard and I got pretty well soaked. TFTC.
A pretty wet day, but there were some young school muggles heading home through here, but the hint meant we were able to pass by & make the retrieval very quickly & inconspicuously. We wander down the steps to sign the log out of sight, before making an equally as quick replacement.
Thanks for the nicely hidden cache smilezr4eva

Rather a damp morning but that meant there were no muggles around the area. The hint was obvious nice you got there and the cache w's quickly retrieved, signed and replaced. Thank you for this cache. And another smiley face. I am giving it a favourite point as it is discreetly hidden so well.
