We were out for a walk this morning in the cold wind but great surroundings.
I looked up this cache and found it in the first place I looked. When I opened it on c-geo I noticed it had been archived. When I found it and it was in such good condition I wondered why, but after having some discussion with the CO's family I understand now.
Again, I apologise if there is any upset in my finding this cache.

This was the fifth day of my twelve day trip to go to the Wellington Mega. I stayed in Napier today to make a dent in the many caches that are hidden here.
I walked under the two bridges to come over to get the cache. After replacing, I spoke to old man pushing his bike up hill. What some people do for a hobby! TFTC.

On the road for our first venture into the North Island with our little caravan to explore this part of the country. It is not a caching expedition as such, but we do manage to stop for one or two . We’ve been on the road now for 16 days since arriving in Wellington and have made it to Napier. Had a variety of weathers, but mostly ‘good’, and have already seen and discovered lots of interesting things about our country that are new to us. Our travels brought us to your cache, as we travelled north, many thanks, GRAHAM 7243, for bringing us here. We’ve had great fun so far and look forward to finding a couple more caches as we travel on our way. TFTC.

Flew down from West Auckland with some Westies. Rebel98, rustynz, merlot58, Aiden29 and Mr and Mrs Jag50, we have planned a rough plan to cache until we drop more or less, for 3 whole days. 2 vehicles for us, me and rusty and rebel are in one. The other are doing their own thing.

A short walk to this cache from the marsh one with rusty and rebel. Rusty made the find on this one and I think I signed us in.
