I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note.

Mo longer permitted

Oh wow, I thought all the power box caches were history! TFTC

Couldnt find it

Got this one this time! tftc

I found caches #2 and #3 while travelling on foot yesterday. I was using the car more today and, when I was reaching the end of my caching day, I decided to see if I could complete the series. My intentions to use the geomobile as a partial screen were quashed as I had to park a little way up the street. Retrieving the cache was the easy part; I had to wait a while for the suddenly increased traffic volume to quieten down again before I could replace it.

Thanks for the cache )))

Ps: needs a new log book

Missed it on first visit....returned and it was easy ...must have not noticed the hint!
Cheers!
One of the closest to Isabella House where we are staying!

We are on holiday and exploring the area. This was a clever tricky hide but we both smiled when we found it. Thanks for this cache Gemopal2.

**On safari - tracking down hidden creature trophy heads to hang in the hunting lodge gallery.***Cache Drift corrected. Back to xarr. Logbook in good condition.*___Found 17 Oct 15 Done and dusted. I had been thwarted a few times with proximity and muggle traffic and picked this late evening as the chance to knock the bv@@#& off. I think the neighbour suspects something is up with the green humming monster with all the attention it is getting. Following cacheri will be pleased to know there ain't any spidies left in the hide, they all got squished while searching around. Initialed log LVL to save room in the logbook. TFTC Gemopal2

In town for a working bee, so grabbing a few more caches on the way to 2000 by the end of the year.
Do not like these things, so this was second visit. Spotted it this time after waiting for a growing number of cars to pass.
All good. Signed on the FTF spot, but obviously not that.
Thanks for the smilie.

#14642. I think we managed a Northern Quinella. We had just a couple of nights in Invercargill, and focused on puzzles and other non-trad types. TFTC.

Found with StreetWalker on day 4 of our road trip to the Oamaru Geofest, taking the scenic route, of course. Today we are caching around Invercargill, with a trip down to Bluff in the afternoon when the weather improved.
We were heading back to our accommodation after dinner and this cache popped up. All quiet at this time of night and SW's eagle eyes spotted the wee cache. TFTC.

#4570. I have been down south on a work trip but not getting much opportunity to go geocaching. Decided to take a day of leave and rent a car so I could explore some of the caches hidden on the outskirts of Invercargill. Nice warm sunny day as well which makes for a pleasant caching experience. Another high muggle area. Felt like every resident in the street was watching me. Luckily I found the cache fairly quickly though not as fast as the others in this series. Signed the log and replaced where found. Thanks for the cache Gemopal2.

GOT IT!!! after luck with the others I had to go give this a second try, had it nearly straight away. Phone torch was a blessing Thanks!

Hmm. Shakes head in despair.. There it is!!!

Had a girl look this time and found it the sneaky little thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

An older man across the road was washing his car and we thought we might have to leave this one for another day when the teen proved his worth and came up with cache. Found with AorakiSheep

A look at the 'usual' places turned up nothing and thinking we might be noticed by the car washing muggle across the road, we were about to move on when I happened to lay a hand on it. Found with debsnz

Yesterday and today. Fail. Has it disappeared?

Looked and looked and no luck

Nice find on my way past nice hide tftc
