In the area with GeoHubby (GNARwhal) chasing down a FTF, which we were successful. A good opportunity to get a few other smileys around the area, this being one. GeoHubby made the find here. Cache all good. Thanks.

#22883. Third find of four. The only one where parking wasn't great. Troodles double parked and stayed in the car. I found the container quickly, but the narrow neck made the log hard to extract the log (something I was keen to do quickly given the parking situation). Happily there was no traffic while I was struggling with log extraction. Log sheet nearly full, but I found a space to sign. TFTC.

I have been lucky enough to visit the Taj Mahal many moons ago, What a beautiful building, a credit to the architect and craftsmen who constructed it. Shah Jahan must have loved his wife very much to build such a tribute to her.
This morning, there was no parking nearby, so risked blocking the road while StreetWalkerNZ did the deed. Luckily this seems a quiet street and I didn't have to move. TFTC.

After work I took a small detour home so I could go geocaching. I targetted it because I thought it would be an easier find. Thankfully it was.

Having made a hash of the hunt for another in this series (& figured out where I was going wrong) I was on to this hide far more quickly.

A nice easy find, squeezed my initial in to a faded part of the log. As mentioned previously the log is full here.

My big bro, BaldEd, decided to drive to where I had parked my snail shell, Weedons, to cyclocache some of Rolleston's caches.

The log is full. Sorry we didn't have a spare with us.

Cheers for the cache.

Went out cyclocaching with Tufty. After DNFing the first cache we attempted we moved across the railway line to seek out all the temple caches. After finding our first temple cache this proved to be a quick find. [^] All the logs proved to be very full and the CO iwould be best now to go out and replace all the log papers. TFTC albijos,Harisee.

A quick trip to the area for a few more caches and some unfinished bissness.

A nice early morning walk to pick up a few caches in the area before we head out of town.
Beautiful area and a quick find.


Getting out and about in to the out doors is my happy place so any excuse to go caching.

Life is short. Live one foot step at a time.Never say" I'm gonna "- Just do it!!

Having found several MM caches, we decided to travel back home along the motorway but stopped at Rolleston to get 4 of the new Indian temples and palaces caches first. An easy find. TFTC!

Such a cool idea! Tick this one off too!
 
22-Aug-22
Last 2 not signed on log with caching names though there looked to be first names of a couple: Willow and 1 other on the right date. This is the most well known building in India I think and now I think I am unlikely to see it in the flesh. Covid has slowed down international travel somewhat. However great to read the info. Thanks!

Oh, the Taj Mahal, the only of these temples I had heard about before.
It is of course the classical stereotypical image of India that comes to mind.
As much as the Taj Mahal is great and all, these "bottleneck" bottles are not - very hard to get that logbook out.

Kia ora! Paldies!
TFTC, albijos,Harisree!

Just got a FTF on Albijos latest cache, so thought while I was nearby, I'd do some of their other efforts, and keep my map of Rolly all yellow.... Cheers

Nice easy find on a very windy day out. I love all the little byways here which would make for interesting walks. TFTH One of these was not like the others. Cheers
