Think this has been muggled. The magnetic area has been painted recently because of graffiti, so maybe it has been removed.
Unexpected weekend trip up north. Managed to get Firday off work, to have more time for caching (nice to see a familiar owner name). Saw cache from a wee way off but had to walk passed and double back when muggles had passed. TFTC
Pelting with rain for this cache, but made a quick find. TFTC and the brief roadtrip stop.
Great cache! Found on the way North from Auckland to Kaeo to see geo-boyfriends parents. Hoping for a big wknd caching and maybe my 100th?! (93rd)

Searched for this one last weekend, but apart from meeting 2 church boys on bikes, still couldn't find it! On the trip home, we discussed what we'd all seen and voila! we got it but it was too late to turn around and check it out. Completed this one tonight. Cunning! TFTC
Finally found this punk! what an awesome container! has really got me thinking about my own future placements... T4TC!
OMG! NinjaScruffy Strikes again! (HA!!) Finally found this gosh darn cache after like... 2?? TRIES! (considering last time our plans got intrupted by a lost tourist....) TFTC!! (FINALLLLYYYYY)
Glad we had come across one of these hides before, otherwise it could have taken all day.
... so no problems in locating this cache. Good spot for us ... we could all the informations we needed for the next days of our holidays ...
Thanks!

Found on the way up to the Bay of Islands. A nice play for a rest stop. Cannot get over how green New Zealand is -a wonderful place. Cache was an easy find and log is now 50% full. Many thanks for the cache
On the way from Auckland to the north we stopped at this place. After visiting the tourist information we walked to the nicely hidden cache. The logrol is a bit wet

The info centre is really great and we couldn't resist buying some nz souvenirs... (also the staff was totally friendly and helpful!) T4TC and greetings from Switzerland!
nice little place to stop off on the way to the north. i love these type of hides
Was my first ever attempt at geocaching. Sadly I kept staring at the waypoint but I didn't work it out.
Fitzy and I are visiting New Zealand for a week to do some caching and have a look around.
This was our thirty-ninth cache on day two of our adventure.
Ah, I love these type of areas that have caches and loos! hehe

On a short weekend break up Whangerei way in gorgeous weather picking up a few caches along the way.
Stopped here to eat our sandwhiches. Cache was spotted by a Junior Pastamaker on approach. Love the fact it's sitting there right under the muggles noses.

Just a few minutes walk from our motel. The cache was innovative. An easy find and on our way to the next. TFTC
Quick find with Rozanz today while doinf the A-Z caches.

Quick find geocaching with grandma and granddad on a visit to whangarei. Clever cache!
Wow, we stared at the WP for a fair while, walked away, and came back and stared again. Finally it clicked. TFTC.
Cool cache.
Saw it from the far because one of my own is from the same kind of container http://coord.info/GC1H723 . This is the first one that i see out in the world.

Was in town for a funeral and needed a pit stop before we headed for the church. There also just happened to be a cache nearby too so had to grab it too. TFTC
Sorry for the late log.
This was one very clever cache indeed. Usually I am not a fan of Micros, but when they are well constructed and concealed like this, then they are well worth while.
This was the last for the 10.10.10 day for us & a great way to finish the day off!

A bit late with logging this one - found on our travels northward. A nice quick find and a nice surprise hide. TFTC.
Didn't stop in for maps, as we had ones with the locations of the local caches - what more did we need?
A Taxi was parked there, but left just as we approached the cache.
Thanks, Robmc.

Seen lots of hides like this one this week but they are always good
and manage to fool muggles no doubt.
TFTC Glyn. Didn't realise your influence extended all the way up here!

Log is full. Easy find. Need to find a place to rest.... TFTC No 34 on our caching trip to Northland.
The showers came down as soon as I was off for a cache. By this stage I was soaked and sore.
A quick and easy one thanks (but only if you've seen these sort before). A bold, but still relatively safe placement!
A lot of people around but they were all doing their own thing; enjoying the sights (and a coffee). Great camo. TFTC.
Awsome Cache!
Did a walk by in the morning, to confirm where I thought it was. Very out in the open and lots of muggles going to school. Waited till mid morning and visited again. I put on my Hi-Vis Vest which, believe it or not, helped me blend in and look less suspicious! Very satisfying find!

This was the 20th day of our vacation in New Zealand. This was our 112th cache. We traveled today from Dargaville to Paihia. We found this cache along the way. Wel disguised magnet, good idea. Thanks and greetings from The Lowlandfamily from The Netherlands.

Clever hide for a very open area. Quickly retrieved with muggles in the area. Returned to hide spot about 5 minutes later. TFTC
I have been here for 10 days caching my way around as my husband worked.
This is was last of 90 caches found.
Farewell....until next time

found at 10.30am as I continued my Bicycle ride from Cape Reinga to Bluff ,caching as a go ,Nice hide TFTC
First cache ever, logging now, great hide very creative, was a big attribute to geting me hooked on geo
Very nice hide, Spotted this one from about 10m away. They dont have those there I thought. Found with jconnop.
What a crafty craftsman. An excellent 'cheeky' piece of work, in a challenging location. A most satisfying find on a busy day - lots of muggles around, even though it a little rainy. TFTC
On a mission to reach 1200 cache finds before the year's end - we need 128 caches in 4 days. We have arrived in Whangarei to clean up the town, and this is the first cache on our list! A nice straight-forward find for us, as we have come across these hides before. Not too many muggles around yet, so a quick retrieval. Thanks.
