As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

spent ages looking for this one.. nothing there at all.. though tree at gz has been trimmed recently.

Searched searched and searched but nothing Look like it's missing anyway thanks for the hunt...

Had a quick look in the twilight on my way home, in what I thought was the obvious place, at GZ. My stomach was rumbling so I cut the search short after about 5 minutes of no luck.

This was our 10th cache on our Dak's Emu mob memorial cache day in Adelaide. This park has quite a bit of interesting history and things have certainly changed since its hey day. We very much doubt that Graham could perform his feat today. The cache was located fairly quickly and we were on our way.
Thanks Team BaggyGreen.

Nice easy find.
No GC in cache. TFTC

Saw this one driving past the other night but didnt have time to stop. A quick find tonight. TFTC

Got in one last one before the clock struck midnight.
Great hide!! I love nature!

Found 200811021408 . There were a few muggles in the park but they were around the corner and out of sight while I found the cache after a short search

Cheers Team BaggyGreens

Nice little park this one...

We where trying to get a caching fever going... Old Pensive Traveller was getting close to his 200th... Were we going to do it tonight????

Well we tried...

MADSTARS
Nelsons Bay 2315

Found with Madstars @ 1800. A quick log and replace and we were off again. Aiming at my 200th. TFTC.

Cache has been on the radar for along time, but the prospect of the Flying Fox has meant putting it off until I could take the kids there.
Finally this happened today, but alas no attachment was on the Flying Fox to fly with
Kids still enjoyed a run on the grass, swing on the swing and slide on the slide.
Enjoyed the beaut mural that had been painted on the Kindy wall (see included photos).
Eventually grabbed the cache, after waiting out a lady walking her dog in the area.
TNLN, but rehid cache a little lower, as I wondered whether the blue cable running from the nearby house was going to interfere with it.

Joan was with me for the day. It took us a while to find it because my gps was playing up. The hint saved us.
Thanks Team BaggyGreens for the cache.

Quick find on my Friday Frenzy. Never knew this park was here, intgeresting to hear there used to be a pub nearby called "The Irish Harp" Sounds like it would have been a fun place.

thanks

Nice and easy find. It is a tiny little park from yesteryear.
No Swaps
Thanks

Quickly found. The junior muggles next door payed no attention to the crazy person walking in circles looking for something. TNLN. Bugger, forgot pen, so couldn't sign. TFTC.

Was looking for those dancers who don't move their arms. None here, fortunately. Easy cache find though.

What a lovely little park, great flying fox.
Took nothing left dog travel bug.

No probs easy find, we looked a bit sus at night but.

I've been driven past here for years and always thought I'll go there some day
Plenty of history in the area
TNLN
Thanks

Looks like council has done a trim but either they read the stash note and left it or somehow they didn't spot it...I'd say it was a close call. Hidden in just the right spot. Took the TB but didn't see a geo coin. T: torch and left Ninja turtle.

nice location, even adults can have a lot of fun there!
Thanks

Found it. We, olbique and me, took out the opal from CP and left a "DET" badge.
Thanks for that easy traditional cache!
Notebook is full!

Nice easy find. Would recommend some maintenance, Local Council has also done some VERY close maintenance.

Left "Pippa's Prowling Puss" TB.
Where is "jg47's Meet & Greet" Geocoin? Become bashful & is hiding.

Thanks Team NKJ

Couldn't gel into the park because the gate was chained but went for a walk to get to the cache. Took a car and put in bubbles. TFTC

Easy find. Tried to cover it up a little more so not so exposed.
Took keyring and left hairclip. No sign of the geocoin.

Found on the way to a friend's party, what a nice spot. Took glow stick, left chicken button and squishy lion. TFTC!

Easy find in the semi dark on my way to the monthly meeting of the Adelaide Zebra Finch Club which meets on a Tuesday night in the Scout Hall on Regency Rd. How's that for a free plug?
Lucky this one is still there as the tree doctor has been in.

first find for the day. tn sl ln

My only find for the day, as the waterfall and macaroni ones eluded me. There are kids in every park I go through today.

Lovely chain of parks along here, although I have yet to check out the railway park in the middle.

After having been snowed under by muggles at the waterfall, there was no one here whatsoever! Well, apart from one cacher who found something, wrote something, replaced something and left. Thanks for the cache on a now hot day.

Found this cache after being pointed in the direction by Bob
Nice and easy find
TFTC

Quite an easy find while on the way home from work.
Considered dropping in TBG's Cache is King GC but will drop in it somewhere else tomorrow.

There is wrong side and a right side to every bush. Some have all the luck. Took a packet of seeds that will grow in the garden and left a ball. Thanks
Moses on the move

We gave it a good hunt, but didn't find the cache. We were pretty strict with our hunt time limit. Glad to see the cache has been found since. Cheers Gav

Kiwi Cache Raid: Stayed for the full 5 minutes but no luck in this park. I see that it has been found since so we didn't look hard enough! Many thanks Team BaggyGreens.,,,,,,,,,

Alas we couldn't locate this one after a extensive hunt

Our 4th DNF on our record attempt.

Missed this one but had a time limit to stick to. BUMMER

Missed this one, bummer, obviously still there.

picked up minnie minx tb and dropped off meet and greet gc

Found at 20:46. I wasn't too holding too much hope for this one - it was getting dark and the torch battery was flat, but after a bit of blind groping I had it. Too dark to check out the park.

This one was for the 'oldies' to find - geosons were having too much fun on the flying fox .
Took Left Fin TB and drag car.
Left Minnie Minx TB and coyote.
SL.
Thanks BaggyGreens [^].

Quick lunchtime find on a very hot day. Took pink ball left something..can't remember. Many mini muggles at a nearby kindergarten - stealth is required.

Hi All
Found this Cache on my Mothers birthday first cache in Austraila that I've done - easy find Thank you Happy Hunting Go the TB

Revisted this cache to drop off Lightning McQueen TB.
Lightning McQueen has now achieved two of its objectives.

Finally got the geokid to this one, great flying fox. A quick find once we used common sense! TFTC TNLNSL

coordinates seemed a bit off but easy find. TNLN

hey hey! woot awesome flying fox! (L) it!!

T-ambulance L-garfield

TFTC!

Found with other Aesir Rovers Foxzami and Heatherez. Coordinates seemed a bit off but not too bad. TFTC.

This is our first cache find. The family walked around to the park (our house backs on to it) and found the cache in a few minutes.

Took binoculars, Mr Happy, and Stirling Marlin. The boys left Mario Keyring and Matchbox Ambulance.

quick easy find in a quaint little park ... even though it was dark! dropped off sterling marlin tb

Went out for a nice ride, had a lovely picknick in the park and lot of fun on the flying fox.

Find #6
Close to work. Found at 5.30pm. A few minutes later and it would have been too dark to find the cache without a torch! TNLN. TFTC.

This became the last of my night time caches as I had no torch and this cache revealed itself by feel alone. TNLN. I am imagining that this is a nice park. Thanks team baggy green.

Have spent a couple of nice days at the miniature railway park up the road, but would never have noticed this park if not for the cache - TFTC

Nice spot for the kids and a pleasant walk.
Thanks - Cosmo

Easy find at 1016 hrs. This park, easy to miss as you drive past, is much larger and more interesting than it appears from the road.
I can remember when Regency Road was called Irish Harp Road, and even when a Soap-Box Derby was held here and go-carts rolled downhill to find the winner!

Found it at last. It certainly helps to recheck the coordinates! Last visit had me searching fruitlessly in a distant corner of the park. Cheers!

Quick grab while driving by. TNLN

What a great park, the kids had a blast on the flying fox.
thanks for showing us this top spot.

Have often thought that this would be a good park to explore. Thanks for making us get out and visit it. The boys playing cricket thought we were mad but we found a little frizbe that is perfect for our dog.

Took Texas TB from another cache with the intention of placing it near the airport. Evidently that didn't happen and so we are placing it here in the hope that one of the kindy gartners will be going on a trip to Texas sometime soon

A quick find a nice little park

Another great little park, fortunately deserted on my way home from work.

Took: teeth
Left: dinosaur

Pity the rope from the flying fox was too high for me, I would have liked a go. The next person looking for this cache should bring a broom to get it down so they can have a ride. TNLNSL. TFTC. MODU.

Here with the geo-team, But logging it 3 months later than them due to laziness and lack of internet access. A beautiful park near a lane with a very silly name...

Spent the afternoon caching with onewiseowl, irac and dylanja. Hope the flying fox is now fixed.

Was a really obvious find, i hop we hid it better. TNLN TFTC
with a whole bunch of cachers: onewiseowl, reginanja, iracearoundcaching.

Irac (I race around caching) visited this cache which is in a Lovely little park to take the kids to. The flying fox needs fixing at the moment- someone with a broom handle or simlar could do this while they are there. Took out dice,left ducks.TFTC

nice park - who would have known it was there?
TNLNSL TFTC

Here's a belated log I thought I had made. This was part of "playing the numbers game" and getting as many consecutive caching days as possible. So I was grabbing every cache between home and work, one a day.

It's amazing the places you drive by every day but never stop.

We tried this one when we were just begining and without A GPS.loved the park then and after our holiday succes with GPS thought we'd have another go - or did we just want to go and play in this park again? Found cache easily - a bit exposed to muggles. Not a soul around @ 11:40am.
