Logs
Like the previous cachers logs,we looked on 2 seperate days and didn't find it either,despite trolling through old logs for other clues. The hedge is getting big holes in it which probably won't go down too well with the council.I realise it is a small cache but am sure it is not there. Perhaps you could give a definite clue to it's whereabouts and save any more damage to the hedge. This is a sensitive area for a lot of people and persons rummaging around for any length of time and not actually tending graves may cause offense. What exactly does GL mean ? !
Beautiful sunny day, did it on our way back from the Scallop Festival in Whitianga. Looked for it for about 15 minutes but didn't manage to find it (despite using the hint). Don't think the cache is there anymore.
Auf Grund eines Team Account Splitt logge ich diesen nun mit dem eigenen Account nach.

Found this on our way out of town. Fairly easy find. Amazing that some caches are never muggled. Thanks for this.

)1st for the day, pouring with rain and not that easy to find for us, but water pouring down your nck is a little dampening to the enthusiasm 
Found with Imgettingannoyed during our 3 n half week NZ mega cache mission!!
Rather not meet here thanks!!!! Last cache for the day, and thought it was a rather nice entrance with a handy seat nearby. TFTC
Travelling to the area for an adventure racing weekend (see arcevents.co.nz). We decided to camp at Tairua, but the campground there was very noisy because some generators nearby. Perhaps we should have stayed here like Geckoh (see log below) and meet 'Me'. We didn't meet anybody, but found 'It'. Thanks for the cache.
Hmmm, that was a prickly bush! Good thing the cache wasn't in there. Cheers Gav [3521]

Reading a few of the logs cracks me up, Whats wrong with caches at cemetaries? start to get worried when the hint says "6 feet under, take a spade and dig at plot #23....."
We were going to do this one for the last cache of the day at 9.30pm, but the close proximity of a house made it seem a little dodgy to be roaming around with flashlights at the place of rest, so we decided to park up for the night tucked out of the way on that beautiful reserve lead up to the cemetary, just around out of view of the neighbouring house, and the "other" neighbours were very courteous in not making too much noise, we slept like corpses........ only to rise the next day, and nab the cache at 6am. Now off to find breakfast!!
TNLN TFTC!!

Hi, this was a very quick cache and our last on the Coromandel trip. But we asked us about your choice of the place.

What is it with caches at cemeteries? Nice view though (even if the spirits there can't see it).
Found this a while back, took some young cousins who found it all very exciting!

A quick and easy find. An unusual cemetary, with that large lawn area out front. Left TB Wandering Pooke.
A very thick hedge, to which I seem to be allergic, as both my arms came out in an itchy rash - beware! Super view from this cemetery. SL. TFTC.
Nice place to visit, not to stay! Went on to check on my Gazebo cache (well reccomended BTW 
) only to find Nedd had just been, on the way back we saw Nedd climbing into this very cache!!--Thanks,

Took the time to wander around the cemetery, was reminded of many families well known in the area from way back. Didn't spot Glyn tho!
cheers Cam. Now for one in the old cemetery in the township?

[B)] After visiting this site with my son and not being successful. I gave it another go and got into the hedge...OUCH....it's a beautiful and very well maintained cemetery.....
What a lovely and peaceful resting place. A nice easy find too. Thanks for the cache.
The fairy half loves cemeteries.. So she took lots of pics while I logged the cache.. Nice easy find in a lovely setting.. T4TC

A quick grab and dash drive-by cache. Fortunately for us, the rain relented momentarily.

Third for the day. Interesting spot. Couldn't find it and reread general information about cache and then thought outside the square and there it was. Left Keyring and took a coin.
Found it finally on our 2nd attempt. Had markes on my arm for a few days.

I knew this one was marked as not in service, but since I was driving past I just had to have a look
Were going past, didn't have our GPSr but going on the luck we'd had at other spots, thought we'd give this one a go too. But we weren't lucky today... next time 
16:15 Very peaceful at the cemetery. Particularly found the surviving war veteran memorial unique and very touching.TFTC
A very nice final resting place - though I hope not to return for a long time yet. TFTC
FTF again. Quite pleased with our hat-trick after a long drive to get here. This was a beautiful spot today with the tide full in, calm and sunny. TFTC. We really enjoyed it and followed up with a picnic lunch on the waterfront at Tairua.
