Down in Invercargill with the Manawatu U15 Championship boys hockey team for the tournament this week, and plenty of caching.

Failed to find it. Will try again
 
08-May-17
A few muggles around this evening with a game (or practise) happening over the road, but they are all focused over there. Initially didn't spot it - I must have looked in all the other possibilities, but it stuck out on the second pass. It has had a replacement outer at some point and is no longer camoflauged. Had similar "eyesight" issues with the log. Signed in a space just after Jan 2016, then thought I was sure it was recently found, and saw most of the rest of the book is full. Just the back page to go!
Thanks for a dot day smilie.

Sorry for the late logging but have been away for work for the past week and this is the chance to catch up some what.
As I was heading south for the week i thought it appropriate following a collect a few early morning caches before having to consider breakfast and training customers for the day before making our way north. This was the first in the morning and a nice and quick find that presented no issues.

Thanks for the placement
