Looked high and low for awhile. Ended up leaving as it was way too hot. Must be a really small nano Will defs be back to look for it another time.
Day tripping in the wonderful Waikato.
No luck with this one though.
Recommend CO do a check here. I gave it a thorough going over.
Very convenient though!

Searched high, low and middle but still did not find fun looking VFC (very fun cache).
The site was certainly convenient as little Miss Geo needed a break. However, even with the help of some newly met, and super experienced cachers, we didn't come up with the goods.
Amazing how busy this road is ... Took a bit to find this one then bingo spotted it tftc
Was on my way home from a funeral today ... (you were and angel with broken wings flying too close to the ground little Maddox) decided to take some time out and put some smilies on the map (maybe seeing a smily will help improve the mood of the day) a very timely cache as I was getting in need of a convenience stop like this one - and what a relief as I was able to sit and sign the log without any possibility of being seen ....left a symbol of peace and friendship.
good me (him) and gem (her) were on this one as standing at this spot was a little strange, but after a little time we had cache in hand. TFTC
Got to the GZ easily enough. Searched for a bit then re-read the clue which was very helpful. Found & then signed with a bit of patience. Tftc.
Really cool. Really is a 'nano'! Took a bit of effort to put it all back how it was.
Stopped in here on the way to Mystery Creek this morning, from our Motel in Te Awamutu. I had two of my staff with me, and they had just found their first cache ever a few minutes before down the road. Well, they are now truely hooked.. They raced each other to try and find this one, and jumped for joy when they did.
Thankfully we did not require a convenience stop just here. TFTC

We hate Nanos but appreciated the Convenience Stop on our way to Matamata. Quick find and sign.
Great little cache - yep true nano. Glad I had the convenience to hide in whilst I retooled the log
On our way to Te Awamutu over night and and I Needed the stop here anyway. But I was prepared for this cache. Having with me a taller person on hand... No room in the log tho. thank you for the cache and another smiley face.
#6635. Good convenient stop on Great South Road. Quick find. The cache was dry and in good condition, except the logbook was full. Managed to find a tiny white space to squiggle our initials. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log. Thanks for the cache.
A busy day for this cacher today. On my list of things to do;
Visit Smash Palace (Horpito) and try and get two wheels for my caravan. Find some caches with unique (unfound by me) minutes of Southern degrees; S37 00, S38 25 etc (for a Manawatu Challenge cache requiring 400 of the blighters), find a few solved puzzles placed by COs whose user names begin with C, Q or Z and finally (a late addition on the spur of the moment) find the second oldest cache in N Z before it gets moved/archived. Mostly managed to achieve some or all of that and headed North for a few days in Auckland with work.
3 from 3 from you guys. A bit fiddly to grab this cache. Logbook is full, needs a new roll I think

Great find. Struggled to open as was tightly closed. Kids loved it! Log book full.
Attended a function at Windy ridge across the road, stopped for a quick cache between the ceremony and reception. Tftc!
Cute cache. Log book is getting pretty full, could do with a new one. Nice stop though. Cheers.
I had a bit of time this morning before I had to head to the airport and home so went out and found a few caches. Parked near to GZ and - as there seemed to be a muggle interested in the rubbish bin contents here - I collected a coffee from the 'clock' themed cafe before returning to search. It didn't take too long to spot the cache. Log seemed pretty full but I was able to make my mark. TFTC, Biggles.
Can't think of a better place to log my 700th, than a DUNNY cache ... lol. Log is very, very full (not the dunny). I wrote over someone elses fadded log. Their writing wasn't legible, so thought that ok. Am emailing owner: re log. Cheers for the cache, which is a very good wee hide.
It was good to take a little break and use the toilet and find this cache. Thanks. Log is completely filled.
Stopped for a coffee next door. Quickly located. I used to stay with friends futher along the road during school holidays when I was a kid. Tftc

TFTC and greetings from Belgium.

oohh, I liked this one, a nice quick easy stop.
Didn't even have to get out of the car to sign this log.
Thanks the not so little people who had found it before I got there.

had to time this right, between muggles, but managed the find eventually, last one for the day, TFTC
A day starting with picking up 52 close to Hamilton and then meandering down to National Park Village via Waitomo. Really enjoying this NI sojourn and managing to find a few caches too. Thanks.
Making my way from Piopio to Mangawhai today so of course I had to pick up some smilies along the way TNLN. TFTC cashkids
Found caching with alpenmilch80 on day #3 of a 3 day road trip to the Taranaki.
Luckily there were no muggles about, but still managed to quickly find it.
Thanks!

My second day on a cache run to Taranaki together with Slieschke. Today the goal was to explore the Forgotten World Highway and to make our way back to Auckland. We decided to take a longer break in Hamilton to help celebrating its 150th birthday with fireworks and a Time Warp. First challange was to locate "hers" and than the geocache. TFTC
99% sure i found it! - pretty new to geocaching, didnt see a log book? Thats my only confusion here. tftc
Needed to keep a close eye on the cleaner muggle whilst retrieving but stealth and patience rewarded.
Road trip with Vamber to New Plymouth for the long weekend.
This was the first find of the day and took us longer than expected but the eagle eyes of one member soon had the cache in hand.

Today marked the beginning of our long weekend geo-cation with KiwifruitsNZ, seeing us chasing lonely caches for our geo-licence requirements, starting from the Waikato and finishing in Taranaki.
A few muggles about GZ stalled our finding of the container, but the sneaky hide was soon spotted. Many thanks for the cache!

Didnt find it, had someone with me who had found it earlier this week but it has gone.
Been here so many times mowing the lawns, finally wrote in the log today. Surprised to see the Scouts had visited last night! TFTC
Quick easy find after attending my first ever groom groom wedding across the road at the windy ridge. Ta
Nice to spot a cache quickly - good start to a trip south (New Plymouth) for the weekend. We wandered into the clock shop/cafe afterwards - what a fascinating place. TFTC and the stop:)
Awesome, thanks. We've stopped there so many times for clock world and the butchery across the road and never knew there was a geo cache there
