Quick find before heading off to the airport at a rather busy location. *TFTC Noodlekidz, #9306*
Even when I found it my phone said 11m off...took a bit of walking round objects! Tftc
Judez Kidz were leaving Bayfair and I thought I'd see what Geo's we could find on the way back to our Book-a-Bach. Low and Behold e were parked right on it! We scrambled out of the car and Number 2 child quickly found it with a big grin and sly look to his sister who was slow of the mark. TFTC Noodlekidz - Judiezkidz were buzzed and back in the game!
Have tried this one before but rain and muggles put us off, better luck today no rain and few muggles. Glad to tick this one off our list.
Thanks Noddlekidz .
Thanks Noddlekidz .
In Tauranga for a football game. This was within walking distance of the park and a quick find. TFTC
Afterschool mission with jaardinee came back for this one since last time there were too many muggles about I didn't want to risk it! We found the co ords a little off but the hint was primo! Tftc
Have put it back where we think it belongs as the cache was laying there for all to see!! TFTC
Tired finding this one but it was difficult as co-ordinate where jumping around everywhere under the trees we looked for awhile until there was too many muggles around!
Great day for caching today, fine and mild, not too many people around. Happy Mothers Day. Easy find, cache all good. TFTC
A great little cache. All warm and dry. Left a coin and grabbed a wee dinosaur. TFTC
Wahoo! Shopping and caching. Two of my favourite things! Thanks for a neat little cache. Well camouflaged and hidden.
After a late lunch at BayFair, managed to find this cache on the way out with My.Precious.
Out with tiga on a bear hunt (or what Eva) and had some business to do at the Mall. Decided to put this one to rest and was lucky to get a park almost at GZ. Tiga was busy looking somewhere else so I went the the opposite direction and found it almost immediatly, but nicely tucked away.
Log signed in the car and re-rolled. Took nothing and left a 5c coin.

A quick find. Thankfully I parked very close by. It's pretty wet (the weather, not the cache). Put a sheet of waterproof paper in as the log was full. Good hide. Tftc
Spotted something else that looked suspicious and in process put my hand on cache. Cool. Thanks for bringing us here
Quick detour here after finding the other Bayfair cache with our group of new geocachers and experienced Jesso22. Didn't take too long to locate it.
Nice quick find using the hint and the aid of a previous log. Was a great day to find this one with the shops all closed and the carpark deserted. Thanks for the cache
Gps definitely off, found it by reading logs. Couple meters from the path, about 10-12 m from Co ords, or to make it easy, right infront of the give way triangle
Found after a short search. After hours at Bayfair so no difficulty with muggles this evening. TFTC
Today we visited Mount Manganui and to find more caches we even surrounded it twice. Afterwards we went for some cahes in the town. Thanks
#11767. We'd worked up a bit of a sweat getting here, and were relieved to be able to search in the shade. TFTC.
After a walk around the Mount this morning, we bought a few supplies from the supermarket and headed home for a coffee and lunch. We decided to have a bike ride in the afternoon, and pick up a few caches. Unfortunately, we had to bike on some busy roads (Mt Maunganui needs more cycle ways!) so the ride back to home base was not a pleasant experience.
We went via the back roads to Bayfair. It was all quiet at GZ, which was just as well as the GPSrs took us hither and thither with the tree cover. At least it was shady! Relieved to make the find after a second look (the cache was not quite what I expected). Grabbed the TB to start its journey. TFTC.

Had we known there was space we could have turned this one into a 5 metre cache and dash. Nicely hidden. TFTC
Quick stop at shopping centre why not look for a cache nice quick find tftc Lokky 1 7 January 2016 19:51
English :
Ninalila and I went in town with friends and make them discover what is geocaching.
We tried to find it a first time but we couldn't find it at the coordinates.
When we came back after a little walk, we couldn't find it again.
Finally when we decided to leave, Ninalila found it !!!
We logged with our team name : lekiprokos
Thanks for the cache
Français :
Nous sommes allé en ville avec des amis et nous voulons leur faire découvrir le geocaching.
Nous avons essayé de la trouver mais sans résultat aux coordonnées indiquées.
De retour après une petite balade, nous n'arrivons pas à mettre la main dessus.
Finalement c'est au moment de partir que Ninalila la découvre !
Nous loguons avec notre pseudo : lekiprokos
Merci pour la cache

After a great bike ride we went to bayfair for a tank smoothie. Made a quick find tftc
Had a bit of time between the kids dance classes and wondered what to do with midi k. Quick search for nearby caches revealed a couple within reach so of we went.
Phone wasn't working very well and battery was almost dead so we had to be quick.
Located the correct tree and there it was. Small bushes around also have good cover from the muggles sitting in their car.
Signed the log and them off to the next one.
Good easy park and grab, thanks.

My 4 yr old grandson spotted it. Nice camoe. Good hiding. Some mugglers about but didn't seem to pay us any mind. Tgtc.
After checking into our backpacker slieschke and I decided to use the night to find some more geocaches in town. Another quick find. TFTC
7035. Out for a day's geocaching in the Tauranga area with Nodo (David and Noelene) from Waihi. This was our fifth cache find of the day and in an area Rodney knew well since his parents used to live in Girven Road. Rodney spotted something a little different and we soon signed the log. Now off to find a some others in the area. Thanks. Rodney and Iris.
11.55am. We are spending the day in Tauranga with "Sallies" from Christchurch. A few moments to find as the GPS was wandering. Thank You David and Noeline.
Having just visited the nearby supermarket it seemed like a good opportunity to grab this cache while we were here. Didn't take too long to find the well camo'd container as Jr. Cacher #5 spotted it after Mr All7ofusNZ had missed it on an initial look. TFTC Noodlekidz.
A lovely find for my 4 year old sidekick. Even managed a little swap. Cache in good order. TFTC!
Another great hide in Bayfair area today good camo and cache is dry.

Out for a numbers mission in and around The Mount and Papamoa with 11HPG11 and iammrwalker today. With a very early start of 5am agreed on, it was going to be a long day compounded by the All Blacks playing before we left which meant a 3am alarm being set the night before. We all had a great time and a lot of laughs were had in between some frustrating hides, a really enjoyable multi and a couple of great field puzzles. All in all a very successful day with only a handful of DNF's, the weather keeping at bay for most of the day and 86 new smiles added to the map in a little under 13 hours of caching. We signed the cache log "Hi 1" an acronym of our caching names. A big thanks to all the cache owners for placing some great caches.
No trouble here as the carpark was still pretty much empty, thanks for the hide.

Out on a numbers mission with HKCB and Iammrwalker to clear out some of the caches in Tauranga/Papamoa area. We left Hamilton at 5am and had a full day of caches, a few DNFs, a refreshing swim in a pond and a whole lot of laughs. We signed logs as 'HI1' as an acronym for our caching names to save log space. Thanks to all the cache owners for the great variety of caches, puzzles and location
A quick find here since it was very early and not many shoppers were out and about yet.

Great afternoon for a bike ride rounding up sone caches. Quickly spotted and logged. Tftc.
With KiwiJade having the day off work today we decided to head down the Mt and enjoy the sunshine. Needed my daily cache for the streak now up to day #98, Wanted to head down the Mt to place a cache in one of Kiwibabys favourite parks as well as let him have a play. Having tried this cache 2 times before we where hoping for third time lucky. As I was getting the phone all ready all I said was the clue and jade wooshed off in the hope of finding this one (as she doesnt get out caching as much any more think she really wanted to be the one to say she got it first this time) And she did right away, good hide and not sure how I missed this last time (to save pride going to blame the torch and a muggle lol). Thanks Noodlekidz for another cool cache about time for some more a hehe
Wahoo i finally bet mikebop at his game We had had a hunt around here a few months back but there was loads of muggles, this time we walked into bushes, mike a few meters away from me and we got first go, tftc
Nice quick find. Container was really good for where it was. Thanks for the hide. TNLNSL
This was my first find on a beautiful day off work.
Had a look around all the trees but didn't find anything, had some business to do in bayfair so took care of that and returned to find it straight away. Nice camo.
