Cycled in and searched for 4-5 mins feeling very exposed. Probably best done after dark.
Found the lid remains of both a camo (Brown/green) 200ml sistema and blue icecream container. We were unable to effect repairs. A maintenace visit is required.
Was with Mporokosa (below). The first one we found was a blue 2-litre ice-cream container - out in the open. When putting it in a sensible hiding spot discovered the one that is described. 2 for te price of one
Two for one! Saw "cache" out in the open, so we opened it up to find an apple core, empty bag of crisps and another bit of eaten snack (which we threw out into a bin). We signed the log book and then went to put the "cache" back. It was then that we found Rangi's cache! So we signed that one as well.
Found this just before work. Nice little shortcut between 2 big streets. Thanks for the cache
Busy day stopping for geocaches on the way to, and around Motueka. Located this cache quite quickly. Thanks for making my journey interesting. SL TFTC
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 didnĀ“t expect or planned to go to.
Thank you very much for this. Greetings from Germany.

A lot of muggles in this place when we searched
But finally we found it!

Tons of buzzing muggles (bees) around this ground cover but got it okay! Left a little paper stamper. TFTC.
1315hrs Little place, little bush little to the back. The Italian Job was here......! Our blog www.motorhominginxs.blogspot.com
Took a little while to find, which is strange, as there were not that many places to look. I'm getting to know Motueka better. Hi Liana and Tegan. Thanks for the cache.
Nice area to bike around, found cache and retrieved TB Rudi Radler and left 2006 Mississippi Geocoin. TFTC
Found a plastic box and got a bit confused why the logbook was missing... but then I found the real cache TFTC
Poked around in the undergrowth in the pouring rain but no joy. Found a plastic box but it was not the cache.

Quick and easy, can see why this one could be a problem at certain times of the day.

Seems like the place is a kids playground, searched all of the places where i would hide a cache - no luck. so heading on to the next one.
A quiet wee patch of green in a suburban area. GZ was pretty isolated when we arrived, so managed to find and retrieve the cache easily. TFTC.
Found the not so quick cache and dash eventually.

I found a lot of caches with my Dad - Biggles - and never logged these online. Now I've got my own account, its time to set things straight. Thanks for all the fun, Flying Phoenix.
Nice quick find on a walk thru Mot with some of the Biggles extended crew. TFTC, Biggles, Lil' Stu, Foxy and Tui.
Out doing a spot of evening caching now the rain has stopped. Quick and easy find. NINO TFTC
2450. This was another quick in and out. Thank you to Liana and Tegan for thinking like cachers even when out bike riding.
Thanks

Apart from the cache having an attack of the slugs had no problems here. TN, Left a calling card. TFTC
Nice quick find - which is necessary with the houses close by. Thanks for this cache, signed log.
I've found your cache!
Recently I had a bit of spare time in the upper end of the South Island and I managed to find a large number of geocaches. Unfortunatly due to an unexpected trip to Australia for family reasons I was called away from my Nelson adventures.... Now three weeks on I'm having to sit back and log the piles of caches that I did manage to find while I was down there. As there were a large number of caches, I've decided to throw in a generic log for all but a few of them.
Being a North Islander I was surprised at the sheer number of (glow in the dark) polar bears living in the upper South Island - I really didn't think it was that cold down there. And if I had of cottoned on eariler I could have traded for pretty much an entire chess set, one peice at a time. As it was I tended not to trade geo-junk but I did move a small number of geocoins around.
Of the caches I found I could not possibly choose a favorite but there are certainly both some challenging and very rewarding caches in the area. The best caches tend to be the ones where the owner has put in a bit of extra effort or extra thought into the challlenge and design of the cache, thanks to all those who did. I was also very surprised to see that there are a large number of caches placed in and around graveyards - I've never visiited so many in shuch a short space of time. I was pleased to see some new ideas around as well.
Warmest Regards,
Bobo.

Little path a bit busy and had to pretend writing down names of various bushes and ground cover to wait for a quite moment. Always feel like a proper spy in training at such moments, great fun.Thanks for the cache!

Nice quick wee find. The hint item was FULL of bees so it took a bit of tricky manoeuvering to extract and replace the container. TNLN TFTC

A lovely spot and a good hide. But even at sunset there was lots of passerbys that necessiate a quick retrieval and hide again. Thanks
Once the nearby kindy/school quieted down we snatched the cache took nothing left jumping head thanks for the cache
Nice spot and amazingly busy when we first arrived. Quietened down and cache was added to our list. Thanks for the cache again.
Nice wee cache. Definitely felt out in the open to the house across the way. Picked up Geocoin and glass cube. Left Rugby card.

A quick find with no muggles around but unfortunately local dogs have been using the very close vicinity of the cache as their toilet! Yuk! TNLN
Mr Explorer went caching with Q Moto in Motueka today, first time they have teamed up for some finds. Managed to find 24 in 4 hours with only 1 DNF (21 for QMoto and 18 for us). A quick find and off we sped. TFTC.
