Came down to Dunedin for the weekend - mostly for the event, but also to catch up with the family Razz
Had a great weekend caching all round the city, getting caches that have been published since my last visit, as well as a few puzzles that I had time for.

This is one I have been meaning to get for a very very very long time... I don't know how I haven't been to get it yet... but today we drove past specially.

A very easy very quick find once we were there. And nice to finally get rid of this green box off my Dunedin map!!!

Consec caching day # 517

TFTC!! Smile

Well, I have driven past this location a thousand times, today I stopped and recorded my visit to this cache. While it is reasonable condition a new log would be nice.
 
19-Mar-14
This wasn't in the corner when I found it. It was in the middle in plain sight. Surprised nobody had muggled it so I put it back where it belonged and gave it a bit of cover. Thanks Smile

The log is dry now but it looks like it has been wet lately - you might need to make the cache more waterproof

David and Lauren were asking about geocaching, so I said "Let's go to Navy Park and get one". So we did. 3 torches but in the end it was the fingers that felt it first. Thanks for the cache.
 
21-Feb-13
TFTC the homeless man made it impossible to get it the first time, even this time he was there but disappeared when we went back for a look so it was time to pounce on this one.

Should have followed the GPS instead of thinking I knew better. TFTC #4324
 
04-Dec-12
Had to a have a few visits to nab this one as it seems to be a popular muggle spot, but finally nabbed it
 
04-Dec-12
Fourth time lucky, always seemed to be someone around. Saw it yesterday but no chance of a safe find. Still some mugglers around but geoseeker89 and I went in for a good find. Six log sheets made it difficult to find the place to log find and took extra time to roll and stuff into the small container. #96
 
30-Oct-12
Yeah, first one in a new country - always a bit special. Arrived at a motel for work and find thst there's a cache 149 meters away, doesn't get any better. Usually hate urban caches, can ever find them and don't enjoy looking for them amongst the ffag ends and debris of urban life but this one was good.

Thanks for the cache

Hey, woof... JC Cache Dawg here...

Im loading all my finds from my Alpha Males (aka GenCuster) logs, where he deigned to remember that I was with him... As if he could forget...11:20
 
25-Oct-12
11:20 Wasn't supposed to be still in Dunedin today, but after a laundry that wouldn't, the evening before, I drove back to town today and, after laundry & banking duties down the road, had a quick walk for JC Cache Dawg. He shivered on the leash & had no wee paws while I made like a dog walker. Cheers, GC.

A quick find on my last afternoon in town before heading home after attending the Mega Event. TFTC
 
23-Oct-12
Was in Dunedin to attended the first ever Mega in New Zealand. Managed to work it out so that I was able to team up with -gonefishing-, fozzmiester and agcnz on an 8 day caching trip around the South Island, this was day 5 of the road trip. This was our last day of caching in Dunedin region and after having dinner in the CBD we ended up picking up a few caches on our way back towards our accommodation

After finding GC3ACT6 - Main Street - King Edward 2 (Otago), this was the next cache that we had on our list as we made our around Dunedin, making our way slowly back to our accommodation we decided to go and pick up this cache. Managed to find it very quickly as there wasnt any muggles around, retrieved, signed and replaced back as found.

Thanks Mollymop for placing this cache here and for bringing me to this spot, TFTC TNLNSL (5154). Glad that we attempted this cache during the late evening as I can just imagine how hard it would be to find during the daytime, especially a park in this busy location.
 
23-Oct-12
A quick find in a nice wee reserve. TFTC

Found as part of an 8 day NZ Mega Event trip. Day 5 - Our last full day in Dunedin which was mainly filled in by another trip out on the peninsular and a stroll on Flagstaff hill. Thanks to the owners of the 500 + caches which I had the pleasure to find along the way and which contributed to a very fun trip.
 
23-Oct-12
Came here with fozzmiester, -gonefishing- and Yeetrees towards the end of a day's caching around Dunedin. The cache was a quick find - signed log, TFTC!
 
23-Oct-12
Found on the great post-Mega roadtrip with agcnz, fozzmiester and yeetrees. A great trip from Otago to Wellington, taking in many backroads and some fantastic scenery along to way to over 400 caches. Thanks to all the cache owners for the great caches we found on the way.

Thanks for the cache, mollymop.

Day 5 on our 6 day caching trip to Dunedin for the NZ MEGA 2012 event with Gunnie69, Kaisho53, Ozibags, ghostgums and MrMeccano. Once again we hit the road reasonably early with a plan. The day started off spent around Saint Clair, St Kilda, South Dunedin, Kensington, Mosgiel, and Caversham.

Sorry about the bulk log but I am never going to catch up at this rate.

TFTC, mollymop!

Last day for me of Cache Hunting at NZ Mega 21012 with Gunnie69, Ghostgums, Mr Meccano, Ozibags and TheFourBees

After a couple of minutes cache was 'mine mine mine' (as my daughter has a habit of saying [)]

Log soon appended with our group sticker

We were soon away


TNLNSL

Thanks mollymop

Swiftly nabbed, nearing the end of the day. #46 out of 50 for the day.

Thanks for another cache mollymop.
 
22-Oct-12
This was the second cache in a row where the group were faced with a muggle at GZ. Fortunately, the proximity was not quite as close and we were able to conduct the search without raising any concerns. After a couple of minutes searching, Kaisho53 came up with the goods. We added a sticker to the log and tucked the container back in place. With that, we headed off and wondered whether the muggle even knew we were there... Big Grin

Found in the company of fellow Queensland hunters Kaisho53, OziBags, TheFourBees, Ghostgums and Mr Meccano.

Cheers mollymop.

Mum and I found this on our last morning in Dunedin after the Mega Event. The park was empty so it was a nice easy, quick find. TFTC
 
22-Oct-12
Heading back from the peninsula and still on the track of some smilies. Found with RexTrex, Sol de Lune, Fitzy and Zsazsa7 during our trip over here for the Mega. Thanks mollymop.
 
22-Oct-12
Another neat little find as we headed back from the peninsula and the lighthouse. A wet day on our tour, but we manged to make the find. The lighthosue ended up being out of reach which was a little disappointing, but the drive was still worth it.

Found with ZsaZsa7, Winglen, fitzy_1965 and Rextrex (local NZer) on our trip around the South Is after attending the New Zealand Mega. We managed to grab a few caches on travels and this was just one of them.

Thanks for this one, another one to the tally.
 
22-Oct-12
A shared find with my Aussie caching mates Winglen, Zsazsa7, Sol de Lune and Fitzy-1965 as a part of the NZMEGA2012 experience and our subsequent tour.

A quick find and sign, so thanks for this cache mollymop.

5546 + 591 = 6137. Day 3 of my week long visit to the New Zealand South Island for the NZ Mega 2012 event along with Sol de Lune, Zsazsa7, Winglen and RexTrex.

A general run from Dunedin out to the Peninsula and back caching. Heading 'back' now and stopped to grab this cache. Late Sunday is an ideal time to sit and grab this one. A quick find at GZ. Thanks again mollymop !

We are out for the day with the Earthbound's whilst on our NZ Mega Trip. Cache was quickly located, logbook signed and cache replaced. A slight clearing of the weather momentarily allowed us to nab the cache. TFTC Mollymop.
 
22-Oct-12
Found as part of the Gangsters- The Rats, Farmer Frentzen and Big Matt and Shell- as part of our NZ Mega Event Tour 2012.

We made a small meal of this one but following the arrow and not our instinct got us there in the end. TFTC!
 
22-Oct-12
Found this cache as part of the Gangster's Aussie assault on the first NZ Mega with Big Matt, FarmerFrenzten and steeba.

We tried many of the corners before eventually coming up with the find.
Thanks
 
22-Oct-12
Our 6461st overall find.

Found on the "Gangsters" NZ Mega 2012 trip with steeba, The Rats and Farmer Frentzen. A bit of a wander in, once we paid attention to the GPS and not our gut feel we made the find.

Thanks mollymop for the cache. Stats for our trip can be found here http://www.campersdownunder.com.au/geocaching/NZTrip/stats2.html
 
22-Oct-12
Last day in Dunedin for Sully1 and I as we visited as many caches as we could before making our way to Oamaru for the last night in NZ. The cold fierce wind today didn't deter us and the range of hides was once again a large one.
This was a quick find again, thanks again Mollymop
 
22-Oct-12
Found along with bogonghazy after the Mega Event, while picking up as many as we could before leaving Dunedin and beginning the trek towards Christchurch and the inevitable trip home. Sadly the weather had begun to turn on us this morning, but like true Ozzie troopers we continued our NZ assault armed with raincoats. Thanks to mollymop for placing this cache, and for bringing us here.

We found this neat cache while on our two weeks Blitz of the South Island for the Mega Event.

Reperio at 1635.


After an enjoyable morning caching in and around Dunedin and attending the mega cleanup CITO in the inner city...Roostaman and I decided to continue the day with some caching around Dunedin and then head out of town a little to find a few more. Another nice little park visited today, and fortunately the rain earlier today must have kept the muggles away as we had the area to ourselves.

Gratias mollymop.
