TFTC!!

After a brief search around I caught site of a hint of color that was foreign to the location, still wasn't sure if it was the cache until I investigated further, another fun hide along here today, TFTC

No luck today. Gave it a goo look, but on a time limit (lunch) I left empty hande.Next time.......

Found with Kiwimykl, refer to his log for details.TFTC Hal2929

Found with NZDi on our southern adventure. Tricky hide, almost CITO'd it.TFTC Hal2929

I had been here before without success... lots of people were walking that day, so the search was brief. Decided to have another quick look today, took 3 big steps in and looked down to see what I thought was rubbish. Picked it up, as soon as I saw the fishing line, I knew it was it. Tucked it back where I thought it should be. This was my 3rd and last cache of the day. I thought I better get some Mega training in, thanks for helping me walk 6.3km today.

Awesome little cache!! Opened from the wrong end intially, and didn't have tweezers! Luckily makeshift tweezers were readily available Tftc!

Kia ora for the cache.

Found by B. We had on hand a few days ago but didn't know With CO's help we came back and found it. Our 250th cache Worth a Favourite. TFTC!

GZ looks like it's had a big clean up recently, no sign of a cache today

A stroll along the estuary before the day of rain which is predicted tomorrow. That was a cheeky cache Roger! Took a bit for the GPS to settle so needed to circle around a few times before spotting it. Placed back where found and covered the cache with a bit of colour peeking out as advised tftc

Managed to get into it this time! Tftc

I went for a bike ride as you do on a windy Sunday afternoon. Turned out being 23km along the estuary track - return.Second time here to look. Found it this time reasonably quickly.Tftc

TFTC great spot nice hide

First one to be a bust. Try another day

Think Roger needs to kick the habit. Merry Christmas. ************************************************************Why not visit Dunedin, NZ, Labour Weekend, October 2024 for: -GeoToroa - [GCA7ZHD](https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GCA7ZHD_geo-toroa-dunedin-nz)See the website [geotoroa.co.nz ](https://www.geotoroa.co.nz)for more details.When we get 300+ Will Attends we will become the **Most Southerly MEGA event ever in the world**.************************************************************

Cache 1581 [FTF] 7:08am 22/12/23 Joint FTF with Kiscardi. The ding went off just as I was heading to work last night, DOH not enough time to hunt, so I figured when I left work Id chance FTF I checked my phone at 6:45am still no logs so off I zoomed. I pulled into the park and oh no there was a log at 6:50am on the first cache, but no log on the second, I wonder if I can make it in time I jog down to GZ where I heard rustling in the bush. I know your in there Kiscardi and her head popped out of the bush, she was struggling a little to find it PHEW so together we hunted she said I cant find it all I found was *****, we snuffled round and I came back to what she originally found and low and behold that was the cache so we happily signed our names and went on our merry way for a walk and a chat. T4TC

Up early for some new caches in town. Headed a bit further away for my second one and had just popped back out onto the track when I heard my name called. So T Dronsfield and I headed back into the bush on the side of the path. No luck so decided to try some nearby bushes. Nope back to where we were originally and Tania picked up an object previously discarded by me and yah found the container. Wonder what Roger was up to in the bushes. thanks Tania for a fun start to the day. And a joint {FTF} . Now back to the jobs needed finished this year.
