I'm on a south island tour on my recumbent bike and staying at the top10 park, going to Invercargill today. That was almost a sit-in on my bike. TFTC.
Quick thanks to hint

Whilst travelling on the South Island of New Zealand we stopped to look for a few caches when time allowed. After a day of rain followed by constant heavy falls at night we weren't expecting to be looking for any in Abel Tasman NP, but it cleared up nicely. Then at the glacier area it likewise was great weather, but in the 22 years since we last in New Zealand they have shrunk a huge distance. After a day of delightful walking to Roby Roy valley we had a short travel day and had time to search for some caches at Wanaka and Queenstown. Both towns are trendy and noisy, but the thing that stunned us the most was the person with what looked like a pusher for kids, but was in fact for dogs and there was one in it.
Doubtful Sound was amazing as was the efficiency of the travel operator especially given the mind boggling logistics of running it. A day on the Kepler brought us pasta number of caches which was a bonus..

Second Thomsons Bush cache and was a nice big one full of swag. SL TNLN Returned well in hide with a kick. tftc
Found during evening walk in the bush. Went straight away to the mud at first. Thanks.

After trawling under the bridge, nearly falling in the river (I'm a big guy) and much to the amusement of my partner we found this cache. Good hiding spot! Nice thoughtful cache.
Backwards and forwards over the bridge but we got it eventually! Very well camouflaged in the dark 
Was out walking today, thought i would check my first ever find. Lid wasn't closed and over flowing with goodies. Luckily not raining today, removed huge plastic bag and restacked.
Went on a big adventure with Wafflekitties and geo pups, had a blast thanks for the memories! TFTC.
TFTC.Found while on a winter holiday with LCBuilder and our two geodogs. We spent 3 weeks travelling down the east coast and then up the west coast, setting our tent up at a different campsite each night. We didn't have any real plan, just went where the caches took us 
we saw a lot of awesome sights and will definitely have to come back one day as 3 weeks isn't really that long!
Just came from the catlins which was awesome. Enjoyed Invercargilll as well so stayed two nights! Enjoyed the bush walk in the dark TFTC!

Found this one before work this morning. A beautiful tribute my dog found to be a delightful morning run. Both Jess and I thank you for the cache.

On an evening walk at Invercargill we searched for this cache. We had no problems to find it. Thank you for showing, the information and the nice cache!
Every thing was saturated! Cleaned up and soggy swaps removed and replaced new log book in ziplock bag.
Found on our 25 day New Zealand South Island holiday.
Apologies for the late log but with little or no internet as we travelled and only super slow WiFi in van parks I decided to log all finds on my return home.
found while out on an afternoon adventure

Took hint too literally, got a bit wet and muddy crawling around. Found another geo cacher.
This cache was so wet we left a new log in the form of a new notebook page. Beautiful bush area.
Found but no log so have put some notes paper in a small plastic bag until log replaced
