I really like Whereigo caches, and this was a thoroughly enjoyable cache hunting experience. The story was well thought out and executed. It took me awhile to find the tiny container, but the most difficult part was rolling the log scroll small enough to fit back inside after I signed it.
Thanks to Agito for creating this cache.

Found the medallion and emailed required info to owner. Don't let the difficulty rating scare you away from hunting this fun cache. This was not a difficult find; it took less than thirty minutes on flat terrain and paved pathways.
 

Regrettably, I think it's time to archive this cache. As Bangkok's first cache, it has served its purpose of introducing geocaching to this area. This is a popular park, and the cache site was just a little too exposed, apparently. If a local geocacher wants to adopt this cache number and use it to establish a new cache somewhere in the park, I have no objection. 

I went looking for this one with info I had downloaded to a pocket query the previous week, so I didn't have the benefit of Freeewilly's last log entry. I found the spot described at ~15:00 and even found a plastic Soapy's Station card (pictured) wedged between 2 rocks at GZ, but no joy on the cache itself. I took the card and continued my hike to the Tram Peak (GC33A8) cache.

I made this search much more difficult than necessary. When I first arrived at the coords, I looked around briefly and then headed for a location that provided a better view of the sky. It pointed me right back to my first location, so I returned there, hung up my pack, and began a broad search of the obvious hiding spots. Finding nothing, I returned to the pack and began a more detailed search close by. Voila! the cache was located no more than 10 feet from where I had hung my pack. I can't recall another time where my GPS matched the hider's so closely.

I removed an item that was not so family-friendly, and I left something good to read along with an assortment of coins from 8 countries and my World Traveling Old Glory #10 travel bug. Its goal is to return to the Memphis, TN area in the U.S.

Thanks for placing this one.

I wasn't sure what I was looking for on this one. Part of the description says it's a virtual cache, but other information and the logs indicated it was a traditional cache. Fortunately, the coords were dead on; so it didn't take long at all to find the small container.

Ants were feasting on the candy someone had left, so I removed both the candy and the ants before signing the log and leaving an assortment of coins from 8 countries.

Thanks for hiding this one.

I searched for this one for quite some time without success. I'm glad to see that someone else was able to find it after my attempt, but now I'm really wondering where it could have been.

I completed the course for this one nearly 1 year ago but was unable to find the cache at that time. Since I was almost positive I had done the first stages correctly, I returned directly to the final spot this time around and quickly found the cache without difficulty. The container lid is badly punctured, and the cache had some water in it. I emptied the water, took nothing, and left some US coins. I also placed the container in an inverted orientation in its hiding spot to keep water from entering.

Thanks for the challenge.

Wow! the last person to find this one must have been really tall. I had to use a stick to coax the container close enough for me to grab it. The whole discovery and retrieval process took the better part of an hour due to frequent passers-by, but I was able to get it, log it, and replace it without attracting attention. Took nothing, left a few US coins.
Thanks for the cache and the nice view.

I went looking for this with the info page loaded into my PDA. Unfortunately, I didn't have benefit of the two visual hints. I did look around the area pictured in them (as well as ground level and other nearby places), but never spotted the necessary information/object. I finally gave up there and decided to search the area I thought the description indicated. I had passed through a tunnel on my walk to the posted coords, so I focused my attention there. No success, however. Though I searched around both ends of the tunnel, I never happened upon the cache.

I was unable to find this on my first visit nearly one year ago, but I had no difficulty this time around. Took a 20 cent AUS coin and left an assortment of US coins.

The cache has been replaced and is ready to be found again. Difficulty rating has been increased for reasons that will be obvious once you locate it. Have fun! 

It appears this cache has been plundered. I will attempt to replace this cache in another location within the park on my next visit (~Feb'03). 

Got up extra early on my last day in Oz to search for this one. Hiked over from the Airport Hilton via a very circuitous route. Once in the park and on the correct trail, I was optimistic. As I arrived near the coordinates, I saw several possible hiding spots. Under a rock overhang I found a white plastic container nearly full of dirty water and the blue screw-on lid nearby. I kept looking, hoping it was not the cache; but I eventually ran out of time and had to return to the hotel to pack my things for departure.

I was glad to read today (09 Apr) that someone else actually did find the cache a few days after my unsuccessful search. That means perhaps I'll be able to search for it again next year when I return.

This was the last in a list of unsuccessful searches on this date. I hiked in from the north end of the park and walked the entire route, solving each of the intermediate steps without difficulty. I took a detour after the first stop in order to search for the Curse of the 3-legged Dog cache, but I struck out there, too. I arrived at the actual cache location shortly before sundown and guessed the hiding spot even before decrypting the clue; but I was unable to locate the cache. After decrypting the clue, I again poked around in the correct location, but I was still unable to find the cache.

Thanks for placing this cache. This was a great park to visit, even though I wasn't able to log a single Found it!

Since I was in the area, I thought it only right to visit the location of the cache coordinates before actually logging this one as a Found it!

The tall buildings caused the signals to bounce around quite a bit, but I took a photo of the site I suspect was intended. As it turns out, this was the only cache I was able to find during my recent visit to Oz.

I listened to the radio broadcast and emailed the answers after returning home.

I found the relics and read the plaque explaining the site, but I was unable to find the cache. I noticed that someone had recently trimmed all the grass around the relics, and I found a hole in the ground that I supposed may have contained the cache. When further searching proved fruitless, I gave it up as missing. I'm now glad to see embi was able to find it the next day. I'll try it again when I return next year.

I must have been blind on that day! I can see from the posted photos that I was in the correct area; I even hung my backpack on one of the trees in the pictures. But I was unable to find this cache. I was pretty well convinced it had gone missing, so I'm glad to see someone found it after I was there.

Searched for this one in vain for over one hour. Tried triangulating from open areas and consistently homed in on one area, but still came up empty-handed after thorough searching.

This was going to be my first physical cache find in Australia, after walking here from the GC2725 virtual cache coordinates. Later searches at the Relics cache and two in Centennial Park were also unsuccessful. Just not my day for finding caches, but still enjoyable, nonetheless.
