Nice afternoon for a stroll. Went down the steps, then up the steps, then down again to secure that which we had passed several times! TFTC
Found 20/8 with Spy3 on our visit from UK last year but not logged until now as mislaid details. Sorry. TFTC
Lovely little cach in the most beautiful location. What a gorgeous walk!
Well worth a wander.

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
Another great cache in this park. Lots of great photo opportunities on a lovely evening. Took TB Rosie the Duck off to see new sights. TFTC
Lovely park with nice walkways and open spaces. Enjoyed the stroll around the grounds before finding the massive cache. 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

Came with the family (Raconteur & Geoscrivins). Enjoyed the lovely park. though we had a hard time getting the pushchairs around the tracks with the steep steps. TFTC
came to grab bug and drop bug , also to check to make sure the cache was in good condition and it was
Great park and a lovely spot for a cache. So much so we launched our new TB "The Blob". Great camo. TFTC
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.

There had been a massive clean up in this area, I feared the cache might of gone too. Quick search proved me wrong TFTC
Great hiding spot! Great that it's still here after all these years :-) Thanks for bringing us here on the day of the 10/10/10 challenge. TNLN>

Unfortunately after searching for some time we (4 of us) did not come across this one...???
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.

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.

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.
Found this one, on a roll..... yay!, well hidden, took longer to find than we thought!

Coldstream and I were on a cache raid to the Western Bay of Plenty. I put in one of my temporary logbooks that will last for quite a while entry-wise. The cache is still well hidden even though the ivy has been killed.
Cheers for the cache.

Found this cache - log book is full (only back cover of book left and now half completed). Creepers appear to have been sprayed, although cache is still well hidden.
Great walk with my son. Not a sole in sight. Really cool hiding spot & really cool cammoed drink container. Signed the log book.
we were just about to give up and walk away when we stopped at a likely spot and sure enough after some digging around there it was!
took nothing
put in: winner medal
hid container very well again [^]

Have always loved this park. Its nice to come back after many years to see the changes. TFTC and the memories, used to run this track for school cross country many years ago.
On a cache mission for the day with The Freezer Mice and managed to knock this one off. TFTC

Out on a day of 'raiding' caches in Tauranga with Twigster.
One of the many spots that we stopped at... except this one almost involved getting eaten by a muggles 'not so friendly' dog!

Y Park here? Y not, what a beautiful park and a great place to come on holiday. TFTC
Second day of our caching weekend with kiwifeet and kiwicouple and our twenty nineth find . Quick find with our five set of eyes searching T4TC.
Tearing around Tauranga today with Rosmar and Kiwifeet. Pleasant walk through the park with lots of lovely big old trees with great hiding spots. Glad we did not have to walk down to the bottom of the hill for this one (more particularly that we didn't have to walk back up.) Thanks.
Picked up the dogs TB

This cache was a nice surprise to find in the middle of suburbia. The container was unique and the hint was very helpful, as our GPSr was not very accurate here. We left a koala and a GC. TFTC
