ok I'm going to try to either a) link the other clues to Como which I was unable to do before now, or b) try to figure out how this clue could mean ANYTHING other than Como

I think Bower was used before.

Interesting, it seems one word from previous hunts has been used in each clue. Or after all these years it is hard to come up with new words to describe the same 'ole parks?

Maybe, each word we recognize knocks out that park. Whichever hunt is left, well, it's in that park! lol Does that even make sense? I'm a wee bit tired from flying the friendly skies. Thank goodness I made it home tonight:-)

Brests Exposed could mean it has a swimming pool- but I thought that was covered already in previous clues.

Como no longer has a swimming pool. City closed it down this summer.

Harriet did have a zoo in days of yore.

WHat gets me is that this place with the enclosed bower and exposed beasts is suppose to make you crap your pants. A zoo and conservatory doesn't scare me. Or am I just really tired tonight?
