Found on a walk around the marina.... Magnet was missing...was held in place with another object.. Thanx4tc
#23786. We parked in the P120 area by the pub and walked to GZ. There as quite a bit of activity this morning, but GZ is well screen and the only muggles around left as we arrived. Troodles soon located the cache. TFTC.
I am on my way to Auckland with many stops for caching along the way.I missed finding this one a long time ago. Thanks to the CO for maintaining the cache so I could find it today. I was not the fist person to find this cache today! TFTC.
A pleasant morning walk as the wind started to gain strength. We were pleased to see a couple of muggles depart just as we arrived, so we had the place to ourselves. It didn't take long to sniff out the nicely hidden container. I was surprised to see a blank log - it was completely blank, so added the cache name as well as our own. TFTC.
I DNF'd this cache back in August 2020 and the CO replaced it within a week. It's hard to believe it has taken me this long to get back here. Since then it has been replaced again and has received enough finds to fill the new log. Of course there are four options, and it took me all of them to find the cache. Discovering the full log, I got Kiwimykl to provide a new one and gave him the old one to hand to the CO tomorrow.TFTC GH6710
#14,714. I drove the car close to GZ and parked. Headed to the spot and nope two muggles are sitting there. Said hello and went off to find another cache. But nope that one is a new DNF. So back here and the muggles are still here. But then they got up to go so back to the car and waited them out. Then back to the seats and after a short search I found the well hidden cache. Signed the logbook and replaced the cache as found. Thanks GH6710 for the cache. Great to convert this old DNF into a smiling face.
A beautiful spot with a bellbird singing beside us! A quick find. Log book per full but managed to sign in!
Day out to Picton for some caching, biking and a swim. Small detour here for a quick find. Impressive amount of money floating about. Thanks for the smiley.
I would raise the difficulty on it, found after hint and photos. Great feeling when found though
Did not find. I suspect I know where it is but it may have been flooded in its hiding hole and pushed too deep
Our NEW ZEALAND - TASMANIA - AUSTRALIA JOURNEY takes us to beautiful places and provides us with an incredible number of wonderful moments and experiences.Occasionally we also visit a few GeoCaches along the way.We sat down briefly and signed the guest book...??.Thank you for placing, maintaining and caring snapfish2 from Switzerland????PS: Translated with the Deepl app??
Nice marina views, even though we came many time to launch the boat never saw this spot before. Nice cache
Rode on over from our campground. The ride was great. Didn't find the cache, so that wasn't so great.

A quick buzz over to Waikawa on my day off. Easy find here. Got it first attempt.
Thanks for the find. The little one left some gold treasure in the cache for the next kids 
Search was delayed by chat to local walking dog who stopped to talk. This gave us time to suss out the hiding place.
Gorgeous morning with reflections everywhere. A seal was playing amongst the boats.
All safe and dry.
Thanks for the placement.

Seats to enjoy your morning coffee from the local coffee cart. Thanks for the new hide log CO
Unfortunately it's either way too far inside the pipe or has gone missing. I will try and get a replacement soon
I parked legally, then hiked in to GZ. I found the four places, but none had the cx.
On early ferry tomorrow morning. Just fined up so out for a ride and some fresh air easy find. No-one around. Tftc
Cool .marina ..nice spot for a cache with a nice out look...sat and took in the ambience for a while..along with deciding if I would like a house perched up there ...yeh ...nah thanks for the tidy cacheGh 6710
We parked just outside the paid parking area and had a very enjoyable stroll to gz. The views aren't too shabby here either. Thanks for the placement GH6710
a bit harder than i thought it’s not in the obvious places. think outside the box and look for small openings… tftc
Nice easy find here, in a surprisingly secluded spot, despite the action being full on over at the launchng ramp on this beatiful day!

Since my original plan of being in Auckland this long weekend is not possible, I decided to head South for a couple of days. Took the ferry from Wellington yesterday morning, picked up a cheap rental, and off I went. I was targeting some specific caches for a personal goal as well as some fun mystery solves and some just 'cos. This was one of them.
All good here, found without too much trouble. TFTC
