Lovely day out with my girls, a walk, bit of caching, then lunch and shopping. This was a nice quick find before the rain arrived.
Found this morning after spending the night in our motorhome, couldnt find my pen though sorry.
Came by here today and visited this cache. First I parked the camper and then it was time for the can. Thanks for this cache say the Knuffelbren.
Found it while freedom camping in carpark. Lovely spot with nice pathway around point and inlet.
had to wait till some people stopped looking to get the cache. Easy find but yeah I agree with everyone else, log was way too wet, barely signable.
Found it while Freedom Camping out here. Easy find, cache needs replacement though as the rubber seal is broken and the inside is soaking wet
Can confirm it’s wet, nice little find, tried to dry it out, forgot to bring pen.

Unfortunately wasn’t able to find this one ️ there were many comments about the log getting wet so possible it’s been removed to be fixed I’m not sure
Nice little find. Haven’t done one for a while, so recommend this is a ‘get back on the horse’ find
Great wee spot on a fabulous day, unfortunately log book was saturated so couldn't sign. Thanks!
Found it! Very windy day with some showers at times!
Quick and easy find and luckily there were not muggles around.
The cache needs maintenance because the log is soaking wet, it was hard to write on it.
TFTC!

Left early this morning to find a few caches before visiting family. This was one of them. The log is wet, but still writable. Tftc
Was down from Northland for a few days visiting daughter who has moved into a new flat in Porirua. The weather wasn't that flash on arrival day, but the following days were quite nice, so managed to get in a little caching.
The Kiwi Geotrail puzzles were nearby and I had made a point of solving them all in the last month, so they were the prime target today. As luck would have it, fellow Team G0LD member Lis was driving through Porirua today, on her way to the South Island and she still had a few Kiwis left to find, so we teamed up for a few hours, to see if we could knock the series off.
This trad was on our way, so we couldn't possibly go past it, without stopping for a look. A nice quick find here thx. TFTC

What a lovely spot which I have never been to before. Had to pretend I was picking up pinecones as muggles passed by before swooping in for the cache. TFTC
Out for a night cache expedition with the fantabulous KTG.... she spotted the cache pretty quick. Had to sign around someone who thinks it's cool to sign upside down and in the middle of nowhere..... TFTC
and I were out collecting some of the Kiwi GeoTrail and the lovely suggested that we have a look for this one while we were in the area. I like this kind of cache - a park and grab that requires a little bit of a hunt but isn’t too tricky. This one was well camouflaged in some grass. All was good in the cache. Thanks to the CO for this one. KTG
22.2.22 very unique date. Out caching with hubby and Geo Pooch Zoey. One down one to go for the Special souvenir.
Also trying our hand at Multi caches too. TFTC

A quick park and grab in high muggle rest area. Log a little damp, may need a wee plastic bag to live in going forward. Great location to get some good views. TFTC.
Out for a bike ride this afternoon along the trail. Nice hide here, lovely views, cheers
Stopping point with the walking group so no problem to walk over and find it. Coords spot on.

Heading along this way this afternoon so we dropped by to pick this one up. What a lovely little road - quite picturesque in the early evening. TFTC
No kidding on the muggle front and the need to pick your timing. Suitably signed and returned log while waiting for another spot to be muggle free while out caching a golden kiwi. This is a lovely area. TFTC Boxhill I always enjoy your caches.
Neat canister in a lovely spot, must have driven by a million times til now. tftc
Found by daughter, thanks for the cache. Lovely spot with toilet stop if needed.
Staying in Whitby for the weekend collecting the Kiwi trail plus a few others caches. Great walk around the estuary. Cache all fine. Enjoyed the views across the water and all the birdlife. Thanks for the smiley.
This one took a while. Have a seat on the beach side and think where you would leave it.
Very high muggle area. We looked quite suspicious. Good tip to take a step back and think which log you would choose.
Out for a bit of a geocaching mission on my day off! Stopped at this cache a few times before but always muggles around. This time there was a short break in walkers and facility users. I took the chance and the log was signed and returned before the next runners came through. There was a plane flying overhead which looked like flight training, they may have seen the cache location! TFTC
Stopped by the inlet to claim two caches Taybeedragon and I missed when we did the kiwi way back in January 2020. Ecxcept that the other of the two caches already had mine and the dragon's name in it - I had just forgotten to log it. This one we had avoided due to muggles. Not a problem this time, and a nice easy find. And many thanks to the CO for siting a loo here too!
Two problems sorted in one. Now on to Palmerston North

Took the mother in law out for a drive and a cup of thermos coffee. Brought back memories of early years travelling around with 5 kids - who could afford to stop at a cafe! Thanks boxhill for the cache.
Parked in the carpark overnight in our camper. Lovely spot. Process of elimination led us to the right post. Thanks for the cache
A little bit of a tricky find - my GPSr wasn't pointing at the right post and there were a few muggles parked up/coming and going. Got there in the end! TFTC Boxhill.

Got confused at first instance going to the wrong post. Sat in the car and thought about it then returned to locate it with jo9ty.
Lots of muggles around as the cache is near a very popular toilet stop! Took a while to locate at the right post, but we had to keep retreating to the car because of the muggles. Found eventually. Signed log and replaced where found. TFTC
Needed a cache today to deal to one of my few remaining dot days. This was it. Found it very quickly, the first of three successes today. However that was offset by three DNFs, a rather sad ratio really! #3523. TFTC.
Finally found this! Great find, a quick find depends on what end of the fence you park! Few muggles around had to stealth it out in the car before replacing
We found it! We had a quick look the other day with no luck but came back today and it was an easy find. TFTC
Found it on a day surrounded by Ferrari’s for some reason. Didn’t bring a pen, so will post photo.
Lovely bike ride with the kids to get here.
