Failed to grab this one last year, and failed again today after a thourough feel around the hint. Very tempted to say this one's just gone.

Catching up on some logging ... just 5 months delay with this one. Cache was located at a different height than in the description when I found it. I left it at the height suggested by the description.

Found while on a winter holiday with LCBuilder and our two geodogs. We spent 3 weeks travelling down the east coast and then up the west coast, setting our tent up at a different campsite each night. We didn't have any real plan, just went where the caches took us Razz we saw a lot of awesome sights and will definitely have to come back one day as 3 weeks isn't really that long! TFTC!

Another few days in dunnas visiting KJR. today I headed out alone while K went to work and J&R went to school.

Back in the city and time to grab a few before school gets out. Had to don my invisibility cloak (Hi viz) for this one so blended in with the workers down the road was a tricky one wasn't where it should be took a couple of looks then I spotted it in the leave little signed and replaced where it should be tftc

Heute ging es für uns von Dunedin u.a. über die Moureaki Boulders und die Elephant Rocks nach Twizel. Auf unserer mehrstündigen Fahrt haben wir die Gelegenheit genutzt, bei der ein oder anderen Pause auch nach Geocaches Ausschau zu halten. Kurz nach der Abfahrt haben wir hier noch fix einen ersten kleinen Zwischenstop eingelegt und den Cache schnell gefunden und uns im Logbuch verewigt, bevor es dann weiter ging.

Thanks for the cache.

Many greetings from Germany, Nariza & Korshi

Phew! A quick find after a part illness-related/part laziness caching layoff...this one is down the road from Mr Rex's soon-to-be new place of employment, so this park will become a fixture for the Rex Familia...TFTC.

The plan was hatched a few years ago now and it has been a standing weekend away with a few of us mad keen cachers. This trip was made up of Karma Reprint, Team_Gaters and me (TheWanglers). We couldn't use a previous anagram to sign the logs as one member was in Aussie. So we had to come up with another... Hmm, KiTT? We decided on KiTT but after signing the first few logs something KR mentioned took a while for me to sink in and I didn't really take on board until the next time I signed the log. "Hey, the double 'TT' looks like Pi!". Oh, that's what KR said! So we signed the log this trip as KaTT pronounced 'Kapai'! And the trip was kapai!!! We had an epic weekend starting with a detour to Peel Forrest for a few FTFs, stopped in Omaru, thrashed Dunedin and detoured to Port Charmers for a FTF and then back to Pleasant Point and Peel Forrest to finish off the weekend with more FTFs. We got home to our families at a respectable hour after clocking up just over 1100km!
We had a few milestones we really wanted to crack. My 4000th, TG's 5000th and KR's 10,000th. We cracked my and KR's goal and got really close for TG. It really is about the numbers. This trip was awesome as it has given me some ideas WinkBig Grin
We had settled into our home for the weekend and scored us some steaks for tea. We were hydrated and fed and headed out for the evening. Quick find.

Thanks for the cache.

Show weekend and a Road Trip to Dunedin with 'The Boys'....Karma Reprint & TheWanglers. Initially came up with the acronym KiTT but on seeing the TT looked like a Pi symbol we quickly changed to Ka(Pi) (ie. Kapai)....and a fantastic weekend it was. 3 days, 1100km, a heap of caches and great fun.
Quick find and sign whilst out and about in the evening. Cheers.

Found with CJ-Curry, Jaycie and Silvachief. Nice little spot, previous logs made GZ incredibly obvious.

I may have tried to dive through a hole in the bushes to beat the others. I failed :p

Had a day out with Hevic, Silvachief and Jaycie. Had this one sussed quickly... or so we thought. A previous log led us in the right direction, and despite taking a vine to the eye I nabbed the cache. Cheers!
