Stage 3 of our trip is a few days on the North Island of New Zealand. Thanks to all the COs for placing and maintaining caches for us to find. Day 1 Quick find at the Airport when arrived before we headed down to Pirongia to say with friends. Day 2 I spotted a multi in Hamilton which took us on a tour of street art. So we headed into town for a stroll around. After lunch, a walk was in order so we stopped at Lake Ngaroto and walked and geocached around. Day 3 we drove up to Coromandel stopping along the way to see the sights and of course geocache!Day 4 Up early to head eastwards and a leisurely drive back down the coast.

Nice and quiet today so I sat for a while and signed the log. I was just putting the cache back when a muggle appeared from around the flax. As I got back to the car she hovered by GZ with er phone and then sat in the same spot I had, watching me. I don't know if she was a cacher or that is the best spot to sit and watch the day go by.

A race to find the correct spot. Lid is missing but other than that cache seems well and reasonably dry. Cloudy day with rain rolling in so views not as they could be but a nice spot nonetheless

Fort geocache verry good
 
08-Apr-23
This was as far up the beach as I walked today. Only one muggle across the road working on their garden, but not looking my way as I searched for the cache. I gave it a really good look and feel around, but for a 1/1 with a seemingly obvious hint, I'm fairly sure it's missing...

Thank you for giving me a reason to come to this spot though!

Our starter today for TEMBO! and me was at "Buffalo Beach". We had a quick find under the eyes of construction workers. They are not interested in us.

Thanks to Darby&Joan for hiding and maintaining the cache.

Hello. We found the cache this afternoon and wanted to let you know that the lid is broken at the hinge and no longer stays closed properly. We used a bit of the tape it is wrapped in to secure it for now.

A quick easy find here on an early morning walk. No one in sight and a great place to stop and check out the views of Whitianga. TFTC

My first overseas find... in my childhood town nevertheless. Even better... right next to my mums house where I grew up! TFTC. According to mum, many of the residents think that people are stashing drugs or money under here with the way they hunt around ????

Quickly spotted on our night caching adventure. Great to come back to where I use to windsurf. Tftc
 
20-May-22
Wasn’t sure how this night caching was going to go, but fortunately this didn’t take too long to locate and everyone in the nearby houses weren’t interested in what we were doing with head torches on. TFTC

17-Apr-22
This cache might not be there.
I’ve found this one before, and it wasn’t in the same spot, so I looked around a bit more and I couldn’t find it Sad
I didn’t have a thorough look though, because I went out to the rocks to look for crabs, so don’t let this put you off.
I enjoyed the view, and it was nice to learn a bit about Whitianga!
 
17-Apr-22
Nice hiding spot

Down for a weekend 'crafting retreat' with friends - went for a early evening walk with KakesNZ - After having found the previous cache we 'guessed' where we were heading to - one of our crafting friends who house we were using had told us about a nice spot she liked to come and sit in this area. Well we ended up taking a seat in her exact spot (favourite point for the connection to a friends special spot)
 
27-Mar-22
Cache is all good. TFTC
 
Nice spot, couple of minutes to find. Tftc
 
23-Feb-22
Nice place to chill.

Was staying in Rings Beach for a few days with my niece (booboobecky). Was able to get her back into caching as well.

We were off to see some of Becky's friends in Hahei for a swim, and stopped off for some caches on the way.

I had a few hours to myself this afternoon without the family so wondered off to clear out the caches in Whitianga. I was hoping for a relaxing drive and cache and it was! With majority G-2 caches, it was sure it was going to be a difficult afternoon. Thank goodness it wasn't as the sun was out in full force. Perhaps G-2 was feeling merciful at Whitianga!

Quick find here. TFTC
