Yep, gazebo and cache have indeed bitten the dust. Cache now archived. I'll work on another for this location.
This needs updating or archived. The gazebos have been knocked down and replaced with a long big awning, was the cache moved befoee this happened or i assume it went with it.

Been here twice now and theres been too many muggles around. Good to see kids out using the park just need to come back when they aren't around.
We ride with the bicycle to find some caches. We drove through nice parks with fantastic location. So we can find this cache with a tricky hide.
Thank you say Moorhelmi

Came by and found at 9pm. Got lucky, practically the first place I looked! Nice small container. TFTC
Mr ILT decided that on a warm day like today the best thing to do while I was at work was to cache. Thanks mmaherinwa for your tricky contribution.
No luck here. With my kids the only ones using the skate park today, I was allowed an uninterrupted search. But I couldn't spot anything from the ground and I was too short to feel anything above me. Thanks anyway
Scrap that DNF, before I left I checked a place I'd examined before, just not thoroughly enough. There it was. Still a mission to retrieve but glad to get a smiley here. TFTC
Cycled to here in bright morning sunshine, this time found quickly, muggles far away. TFTC
Rode by here again this morning with a tool to make sure cache is easily reachable. It's always been there, just a little bit out of reach. It is now easily reachable. Please leave it that way.
Rode past this morning to check it out. Doesn't need maintenance at all. What a waste of a trip. The cache is still there, admittedly a little more out of reach than it should be but still getable. I might swing by again soon to make sure it can easily be reached. People just need to look better.
Came past again today with hhheddy, a second pair of eyes; equiped with good hint from a recent finder. But alas not to be seen anywhere.
Have to confess that i had searched for this cache once before but as there were some kids close by, couldn't do a proper search so didn't log it. Returned today and had the place to myself so was able to conduct a thorough search and came up trumps. Tftc,mmaherinwa

Received a hint from a previous finder on this one which confirmed I was looking in the right spot last time, just not thoroughly enough.
Came back today and after a few minutes I was struggling to find the cache, there were a couple of teenage muggles on the skate park which was a bit of a hindrance. Eventually I thought I had spotted it but couldn't extract it. I left GZ in search of a decent sized stick that might do the job.
On my return the daredevils had left so was able to get down and dirty and the cache was in my hand a short time later. At that point I realised that a 'tool' was not really required and I should have seen that earlier. Nevertheless glad to have this one crossed off the list.
mmaherinwa I found your cache at 4:39pm, this was the 1st of 3 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 2530. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

Warning: RED BACK SPIDER live here, now summer. Also had muggles on skates watching.
Found it with BissraFranky before badminton time. What a nice park with lovely pinky plum flowering trees. No issue in finding the cache just need to watch out the muggles. TFTC mmaherinwa
Game taking place nearby, but no one using the skate park which was fortunate.
Thanks mmaherinwa for the cache.

Stopped in to have a look for this one on the way past. Arrived at GZ and there were a few muggles nearby, had a stealthy look in a couple of places but felt a bit exposed to decided to come back another day.
mmaherinwa I couldn't find your cache, this was my 1st DNF for the day.

As it gets closer to the warm months, the mornings are getting "slightly" lighter meaning an opportunity to grab the odd cache before work.
This took longer than it should have. I generally avoid gazebos but at this time of the morning, there was no one around. Was in the first place I looked but obviously not well enough
mmaherinwa I found your cache Skate on By on 27/08/2015. This is my find #3597. TFTC.

Of the group I ride with on a Saturday, I'm generally the weakest. It hasn't always been that way, but a lifetime of sport has taken its toll on my middle aged body and taking short cuts to keep up is usually my preference to pushing it and paying the price for it over the following week. Yesterday, however, I felt pretty fresh and hammered it with the best of them on a Shelley loop and then out to Point Walter before heading back to West Perth for brekkie. I guessed I'd battle to walk today but things weren't so bad, so I met a friend in South Perth for a Causeway/Narrows walking loop today. After an early afternoon tea, the weather was still glorious enough to entice me to jump on my MTB (which was still in the back of the car from recent repairs) and head south for a gentle spin to loosen my legs. I stopped here and logged a quick find before heading over Canning Bridge to a duck 43 hide and then back to my car in South Perth. A nice 15 or so km spin with 2 cache finds to top off a great weekend. Sadly it looks like the woeful weather is coming back but the weekend was hopefully a hint of the weather we can look forward to on a more regular basis in a few week's time. Thanks for the cache mmaherinwa.
Joint *FTF* with skippy 46 at 12.03pm.
I was already out caching with Skippy 46 when heaps of caches suddenly got published. we detoured off and decided to try for this one. There was a few muggles about but that didnt stop us looking ....It took a few minutes of searching to find the sneaky micro TFTC mmaherinwa

While out caching with ooh yeh our phones went crazy with new caches being published.
This one was the closest although it was still 13km away.
We arrived to find muggle family sitting on the grass close by but they didn't stay long after we arrived, so we continued on uninterrupted.
It wasn't long before we found the cache, signed the log and returned to its place of residence.
