TB visit - interesting to note the Post Box disappeared completely shortly after the cache was archived!
had hoped to tempt people to walk the neighbourhood but it didn't really work and the cache has come undone twice - I think when the council waterblasts the graffitti off. The first time we managed to salvage the cache and reglue it but this time the cache has been removed and the ferrous disk rather dangerously bent down. We considered moving it across the road and even submitted the edits but we don't really think it makes for a good hide so bye bye...
I'm starting to make a habit of these twilight runs. Super quick find at the obvious GZ. Spent more time trying to work out how to open the cache than I did finding it. Was able to return the cache before some muggles came walking around the bend, so could quickly depart to the next SOO. Cheers for the cache!
I have been helping AotearoaForever with his caches and he encouraged me to start my own. Very first find!
TFTC! Quiet street.

[Nice easy cache...When I grabbed the cache I didn't notice the tin and so when I replaced it took me about 15mins to figure out how to attach it back to the] post box [I got it in the end, TFTC.]
This visit to East Auckland was supposed to happen 4 weeks ago but I was called in to work instead. I finally got here on a reasonable day weatherwise.
Had to wait for a muggle to use the container on top of the cache before I could log my visit.
One of the magnets didn't seem to work properly - might pay to check it out.
Cheers for the cache.

XC and TK out and about doing some local caches for a change. Parked the V-Strom within 1m of GZ and quickly found. XC used to live in this street.. It is a nice spot.
Thanks for bringing me back here.

It all makes sense now I had written it down as soo coastal. and couldnt figure why we were soo inland.
The fourteenth of 21 on what proved to be a very tough day. I think that I walked at least 30 km today. TFTC
Felt very exposed but it seems that everyone is doing their own thing at this time of night. Nice hide in an area we haven't been to before. TFTC
cache is gone - it would seem more engineering failure than muggled - but I'll need to get a replacement...
thank you Boxhill and Geckoh for letting me know and using your kiwi ingenuity to keep the cache from going missing. All fixed and ready to go again.
A quick find. Cache was somewhat exposed. Did some temporary maintenance but will require a more premanent fix. SL TFTC
Could almost reach out and grab this one, but I made one of the kids get out of the car instead. TFTC
2.25pm. We came along from the SO Orakei Marae cache via a short snicket and a couple of roads. Even had a letter to post today but had left it in the car back at Mission Bay. Very ingeneous hide.

2.25pm Our second SOO cache today. Walked around to this one from SO Orakei Marae via a 'snicket' or 2 with Just Floundering. Found without any trouble, despite leaving the mail in the car!

Was at the zoo today and decided to head home via the city (had to show the kids Santa). This one was on the way home. Nice quick find. TFTC
By the time i got home this one had already been found, headed off this morning for a quick 3TF TFTC.
Out and about tonight on the hunt for FTFs and we were not expecting one here . Quick find, almost a drive by T4TC
. Quick find, almost a drive by T4TCCame from an FTF in the city to collect this cache. We were busy when the new caches were published tonight, but at least we can claim a first day find at 11.40 pm. Thanks.
