Description

Start at the playground area and walk along the path beside the irrigation flume. You do not need to leave the trail to find this, but please replace it well-concealed so that it doesn't get muggled!

------------- Welcome to the Tickled Pink Geocache! ------------- There were twenty (yes, 20) items for trade inside of this cache - one for each year that there have been Sparks in Canada. All traders were originally brand new items. Unfortunately, it has been impossible to maintain 20 new items within the cache. However, we do insist that: + all traders must be PINK + they must all be of equal or greater value than the items that you take. Original Trade Items (May 2009) + one NEW pink-handled skipping rope + two NEW pink notepads with pencils + three NEW pink paddle balls + four NEW pink sparkly sticker sets + five NEW pink sparkly bouncy balls + five NEW pink packs of playing cards All items, plus a log book, are contained in an ammo box.

Hint A sweet number.

PLANNING

This was our first full day in Kelowna. I made a list of 2 possible searches and then went out to see if I could find them. Since the first two searches were along Mission Creek, I returned to our unit and added an additional 3 caches at the other end of the parkway. I returned again to our unit and identified 2 more nearby caches. Back to the unit to identify another couple of caches before heading out for dinner.

OUTCOME

This was my 8th search of the day. I had some trouble getting a fix on the cache location but once I did the find was quick.

Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:

The park was humming with muggles today! Nice hide. TNLNSL. TFTC.

I forgot to take a photo!

I am now 7/8 for today.
