went to check and see how full the log was only to find the cache had gone it looked as though the hedge has just been trimmed so im picking the cache may have been thrown in the rubbish.
Easy find. TFTC. TB Dropped off, take care when getting it out, it was a tight fit.
on an epic road trip with Endmosteye44 and our geomutt geocaching the whole way, finally found this cache with there help on my third attempt here. Took kitty and left bead and tie.
updated log: found originally by will'n'grace, now called willeraus and cazzamatazz
Nice quick find while out on a drive during last few days of NZ holiday. SL TFTC
First find for the day. Stopped in at Oosh Oosh Oosh, because I always wanted to know what that store was like.
Also went to Owlcatraz, and checked out the wildlife there. Enjoyed the North Island Wekas.

Mrs Goodnik's 2nd find! Nice stop in Shannon, muggles-a-plenty but good 'natural' cover helped us in our quest!
Crossing the Northern Island on our way to Wellington.

We had to do a tour of the local shops until a group of picnickers finished their lunch. Was a quick find and off to the next cache. TFTC!
Reasonably quick find as the drizzle started. Did with Crystal Fairy, Wandering Dragons and MycroMan. TFTC!

Quick park and dash to the cache. Did whilst on the way back from the 10/11/12 event in Palmy with Wandering Dragons, Violet Butterfly and Mycro Man
I was here earlier in the year over the road while my colleague tried on shoes ( well I did too) and I thought it was highly likely there would be a cache in this well kept park. I didn't have any means to find out that day but well prepared today. Log all but full. TFTC #3586
Log is a bit damp and bottle had water inside it. Removed water and wrapped up logbook tightly. Sorry couldn't do more. TFTC
Lovely park, quick find, on our way to Wellington, Greetings from Australia. Log birk full. TFTC
Found with J+J.au on our NZ caching holiday. Enjoying the wonderful places and sights that geocaching is showing us. SL..TFTC
[#537] Located on a trip to the Manawatu - Found that I hadn't logged this one and are adding pictures for the Geo-album. T4TC - Look forward to finding the replacement next time we are through...
Quick and easy find by Applescrumble at the end of a long day of geo-caching. Very pretty place.

Had us searching for a while and just managed to find, log and replace before a clean up man arrived TFTC #122
1.40pm. Brought the ladies over to do the shops so time for a cache. had to wait for a council muggle to move along then soon had the cache in hand.
Thank you. David.
Thank you. David.
TFTC. It seems the pub was the place to be in Shannon at 4.30 on a Sunday afternoon!
usually only stop for coffee on way thru but stopped to cache. This is a lovely garden here that I had not taken any notice of before. TFTC
Was an easy find when i remembered, what the cache was hiding under is also a tree
A short stop in this nice little park along the route. Thanks for the hide. We took a travel bug and left an other behind.
TFTC, nice sheltered spot in the sun. We would have found it slightly quicker if we read the description properly
Staying at my Mum's and she thought we should go to Shannon for a drive and to check out the shops - apparently Shannon is becoming a bit of a destination place - Go Shannon. We did enjoy our wander and I was able to collect some caches on the way there and back.
This was the 4th - collected it after lunch and at the end of our 'spending' - gardens beautifully maintained.
Had to watch for council workers who were taking down banners today - but well chosen discrete spot for cache - TFTC and for a nearby seat to sit and sign - doesn't look so suspicious

Looked for this one once before but too many muggles made the search too risky. No such problems today though.
I am glad I had an excuse to stop at this park. I have noticed it as I was going past. TFTC
Muggle near by watching but luckily I could approach from the other angle, out of sight. Nice.
I detoured through Shannon on the way to Rotorua to see if Owlcatraz had a badge I wanted - no luck there, but did get this cache.
It has been wet but the log book is dry.

Been thru Shannon heaps but this is the first time I`ve stopped. Nice spot with an easy cache. TFTC
Nice place to stretch the legs on the drive between Napier and Wellington. Good coordinates and hint made this one a great little stop and grab. TFTC!
Only our 2nd time to Shannon. First was in life BGC (before geo caching) and we have great memories of Owlcatraz. Pleasant to stroll in the garden. NINO TFTC
Found with Novalightning. One of many on a great day of caching the outskirts of palmy. Thanks!
A quick grab and go once I had the right pergola in sight. Fortunately I have log arms to reach the cache:). TFTC
Well maintained park, very pleasant place. Tried to stop this morning, but workers trimming trees far to close to cache site. This afternoon, no problem. TFTC
Found easily, this time, after a fruitless hour searching several weeks earlier. SL 0110 TFTC
#40 First cache in the North Island for me a quick find on a quick stopover while on the clear snow free road to napier from wellington. TFTC
A quick find while passing by on our way back to Wellington. Thanks for bringing me to this very nice little park. TFTC
A nice day (but brisk) to stop for a quick lunch and visit the cache with Aiden303. Thanks for the cache.
Stopped in Shannon after nearly being run off the road by some hoons who wanted to go too fast. Recent trimming has exposed this cache - put it back a little further and unexposed. TFTC
Nice easy find on a wet ANZAC day afternoon heading back to Wellington. A bit damp on the retrieve but not too bad. Thanks.
