A summertime trip to the South Island, what could be better. Day three, and having flown to Christchurch and then driven to Timaru on day one, and cached around Timaru on day two, my travels today have me back up to Christchurch tonight to see a band play, and then up to Kaikoura for a couple of nights to see the same band play again. Along the way I'll be looking for Geocaches, and here's one I found. I am a fan of the theme of this series. In fact Iron Maiden are touring Australia and New Zealand later this year, and I will be following them and going to all eight shows. Did I mention I was a fan? Killers was the very first Iron Maiden album I ever owned. Interestingly the song Women In Uniform was only originally released on the Australian/NZ version of the album, not the original UK or US releases - it was added to future re-releases as it was a popular track wirh the fans. Cache found safe and well. Up The Irons! --- Thanks to TwoSharpe for placing and maintaining this cache. I enjoy each and every cache I find, and it is only with Geocachers like this creating them and placing them out in the world that this wonderful game continues.

Glad to find another Iron Maiden cache

Log is almost full and quite damp so a replacement in the near future would be great- a new plastic bag may also be needed
Thanks

While we were at Princess Margaret we decided to do this cache too. There was a good hint and it was only found a few days ago but we still searched and searched and checked the logs again. No, we are definitely in the right place. Then M came over and there it was, right where Beeba and I were looking a few minutes before. We must have been looking with our eyes closed.
