Kirsova was a Danish ballerina who set up one of the two major ballet companies in Australia in the mid 20th century. Unfortunately, hers was unsuccessful in the end, and the other became the Australian Ballet, but she is now best remembered for the three small pocket parks that she purchased and made available for disadvantaged children. DeadlyTreadly created the first Kirsova cache in Glebe last month (Kirsova 3), we created the second a week later here in Erskineville (Kirsova 2), and now the third and final Kirsova Playground has its own cache! (I've an idea for a puzzle cache requiring the finding of all three, but would need to talk to DeadlyTreadly about it).
Kirsova 1 has a post-modern design ethic using many segments of rusty steel rails and has quite an atmosphere, tucked away under trees beside a railway embankment. Quite a few local dogs use the facilities here. The playground has a lengthy piece of apparatus creating a suspension bridge that is just perfect for concerted jumping and appeals to the slightly older playground child. Beware of the grime on the apparatus if you decide to wear expensive clothing when jumping on it, as my 12 year old fashion-slave daughter did, alas.
Happy caching!
