After finding the other cache in this park I decided to continue on to this one as the rain had stopped for a few minutes. Got to the stairs and made my way down to GZ. Quick find once there. Always god to see decent size containers. TFTC

Came with the family (Geoscrivins & Charlwoods) especially for the geocaches & we certainly weren't disappointed. Once we got the direction sorted, we found the cache easily with the help of the good clues, even though the steps were a bit tricky for pushchairs... Cache was in good condition (pen didn't work, but we had our own one).
Out: Geocoin, small frog & medal In:Geocoin 'Saving Little Hearts', groucho toy & yo-yo. Great park - TFTC

Great park and a lovely spot for a cache. So much so we launched our new TB "The Blob". Great camo. TFTC
 
14-Dec-10
A quick walk down the right track and the cache was soon in hand.
There was NO log book and the paper inside was too wet to sign. I'd suggest a new log book and a plastic ziplock bag to protect it would be in order.
Swapped T/Bs

There had been a massive clean up in this area, I feared the cache might of gone too. Quick search proved me wrong TFTC

Unfortunately after searching for some time we (4 of us) did not come across this one...??? Sad
 
01-Sep-10
We followed small tracks from the other cache in this park to this one. We seemed to be running out of park quickly. Fortunately, the cache appeared before we hit the water.
It was very exposed, so I hid it a bit better.
Thanks, Robmc.
 
01-Sep-10
This rather large cache took us on from the last cache and to the end of the park and almost out the other side.
It was a bit exposed to the outside world so Rob hid it a bit better.
Thanks

Wow, what a large and full of toys cache! We approached this from the wrong direction, and gave up, (GPs was a bit haywire under trees) walking back up to the park where we saw the obvious tree and bingo, there it was. Decided not to take anything so a kid can claim the real cool toy in there. The log is FULL - room perhaps for one or two to note their name only on the back cover. Maybe whoever is this way next can put a new on in, there's plenty of room for one in the cache. TNLN SL TFTC.
