Looks like the local kids have found this again after recently replacing it. Time to archive.
There are only so many shoe laces that two people can tie up and we did not manage to find this one
No luck today. There are several places to take a seat, but didn't get a GZ at any. Had a look round, without any luck.
Were were fortunate finding a carpark a few metres from GZ. A short stroll and grab. The quickest of the day. Found with Old Boots TFTC
Easy find at around 18:30 after an over indulgent tour around the wineries. There were a few muggles about but fortunately I was able to put my hand straight on the cache and so it was easy to retrieve and replace. It would be difficult to rummage around here without attracting attention.
Signed the log and dipped my geocoin.
Thanks for the cache.

Had passed by here a few times but there were always too many people so I had never stopped and searched. Not too many at 11pm on a Monday night though!
During our 4 weeks holiday in the southern island of NZ we did not only find an exiting countryside and wildlife. The many caches brought us sometimes to places we didn´t expect or planned to go to.
Thank you very much for this. Greetings from Germany.

Got this one on 09 February 2011 at14:44:00, was surprised by the description on this one, although I've come across this kind of container before it certainly didn't match the description of this one as being "like a 35mm film canister."
Co-ords were a bit dicey, had us a good 10m away, but we managed to scout it out eventually after we abandoned the idea of a film canister.

Found this with Team Elliott Family. This one took awhile to find all credit to TeamElliottFamily.
Found last night, LHS not the right. One traveller muggle sitting right on top of it, he was about to sleep there!! So we took him home for a shower and warm bed. Funny what caching leads you too!
Came looking for this one a few weeks ago at the start of our South Island trip and there was no cache there. Came back today, looked in the first place I looked last time, and the cache was staring me in the face. I'm sure somebody must have removed it the previous time, it was so obvious that it would be impossible to miss. Mysterious, that has happened to me on a few other occasions too. Signed log, TFTC!
In the still cool early morning before all the holiday makers crawled out of their beds ... before all the taxis came to watch ... I FOUND IT.
Nice and easy. Was here at 17:30. All store was closed and the town was dead. I was supprised.
Found it after some relaxed shopping in downtown Blenheim! Had to do a bit of stealth bcs there were some other shoppers around!! TFTC
Looked from all angles. Even have the scratches to prove it. Is it still there?
Not too many muggles around this thursday mid-morning, but we still had to be careful. GPSr was misbehaving a bit so we had to try all 3 seats and even a planter, looked in R and L corners but couldn't find it.
couldn't find it today, no one around but what ever i tried, seached it all on my knees but didn't see it... if you have another hint... I am still here today....
Out and about today in Blenheim as part of a quick trip to the area. Tried a cursory search, but didn't turn up the goods today... will try again next visit.
Love this type of cache. Took a second visit to find. Plenty of taxi drivers around, but easy to be discrete.
What a great cache. A fun find on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Smeyes was onto it and found it straight away. TFTC !
don't normally do town ones, got gps out to find my way out of town, oh so near, so why not !! only dry seat around!
Nice to have a bit of shelter if the Marlborough weather isn't too flash! Quick find. Thanks
(369) A nice easy find, used minibrogan again to play cover. Before to long we had grabed/signed/replaced.. TFTC, SL
Wasn't too busy today so not too hard to look for, Cold weather kept the muggles away!
Found today while on my south island road trip. Had to wait for a time to swoop and record. TFTC.
We were as stealthy as possible and I think we managed to retrieve and replace it with no one watching. But you have to be quick.

Lovely day in Blenheim and great cache! But you really have to be quick, so that nobody watches you! We felt like criminals doing it

Had to visit this one twice due to a muggle very nearby the first time.

Quickly found with not too many muggles to dodge, the rain proved a bonus for once.
Wazza and the Wenches have invaded NZ on a (caching) holiday. Surprisingly the Wench is happy for BBTD and Wazza to chase caches wherever we go.
A cold and wet day spent in and around Blenheim. A bit of relaxing and a bit of caching between raindrops.
We approached from one side and started getting a very fluctuating GPSr reading. We moved a few yards the other way and got a much better figure then the GPSr started to give varying figures yet again. Stuff it. We'll just have a look near this likely spot.
Cache found at second place looked at.
Thanks again The Rae's.

Found while waiting on a car repair. Lots of muggles around but didn't have to search too long to find. TFTC
[#424, 9:00] We came across this cache during out breakfast stop in Blenheim - it was just a few meters away, so we scored a quick find. The place was quite empty in the morning, so everything went smoothly. Thanks for the cache!
A satisfying one to find! Didn't have to scrabble around and feel silly. TFTC.
#1261. (15/16, day 1/4 of Easter trip to Blenheim). The evening of Good Friday was an ideal time to look for this one. TFTC.
A delightful cache. Few muggles about as we 'sorted' this one about noon on a quiet Sunday. TFTC.
found while Mrs eraserman was in Farmers spending the money!!
Very easy to find with obvious stealth required.

High muggle area so we took time to enjoy the crepe myrtles in full bloom. Once we had a cache, it was a quick find. TFTC
Easy find with the help of Adrift1 and The Italian Job standing around to shield from muggles view.

Tricky and clever in such a high muggle area. The Italian Job was here...............! Our blog www.motorhominginxs.blogspot.com
Drove past GZ, found a car park and walked back to it. Not too muggly this morning. Made for a quick find. TFTC, Biggles.
Sneaky Sneaky !! Definitely a spot that you need to be careful around. Loved the challenge. TFTC.
Had to be patient while muggle finished inhaling her death stick, but fun find after that trying to not be spotted. TFTC.
Muggle central but were are to do with the help of meanmaorimean JR who waqs able to look like all nosy boys TFTC
Quick and easy find once we located the right spot to search.. Thanks for the cache..
Found at night after a nice meal, so no muggles and a good way to finish the day.

Not too many muggles around, so this was fairly easily found on a cold Saturday morning. TFTC.
