Down in Dunedin for the Mega this weekend with McJandals and NZFLOSSY. Signed the log sheet MDF Thanks for the cache. DNF
Had a good poke around for ages, unfortunately not there for us today. Thanks anyway, hopefully will be back at some other time.
Hmmm. There are very few places that a cache could be hidden here and it wasn't in any of them. We think it might have gone. Unfound with Debsnz. Thought for the day: if 4 cars pull up to the stop sign at each of the four intersections at the same time, who gives way??????
Found today while up for event. Visit my Dad and also catch up with the GrandchildrenQuick find. Thanks for the cache
Yeh this time two caches at GZ, signed the nice big pad logbook. Out with busy paws. Thanks for this cache Big Smoke.
Whoops there's 2 of them !! We only signed one. Found with coconuts3 today collecting what caches we could in the area. We might leave some for the return journey.
Greetings from the Czech Republic and Thanks For This Cache.

Found with StreetWalkerNZ as we travel from Invercargill to Christchurch.
A bit of fluffing around, looking for a suitable and safe park. Finally got to a spot that I could stop at, and SW hopped out to make the find. TFTC.

#20795. Took a while to find a good place to stop, but then it was a quick look and find. TFTC.
Like the intersection! I see other Blenheim geocachers have been here before us!!!! TFTC
Another found exposed, I poked it back in behind. Number 2 of 2 in Palmie today.
Day 6 of a road trip around the South Island for us, and today was Moeraki to Owaka. We had a great stay in Moeraki - some great accomodation and a good experience at the pub. But we have some distance to travel today and goals for our first taste of the Catlins, so the first part of the trip was an exercise in restraint. Just the 3 caches out of Moeraki to the main road, then just 3 others before Dunedin. We got lunch there and walked around town to pick up some while RG indulged in some shopping, then headed south.
We visited Kaka Point, Nugget Point and Tunnel Hill before reaching our digs for the night.
A fantastic day. Great sights, awesome weather. Thanks all COs and sorry for the cut and paste. If there are no further comments the cache is in good shape.

Thanks a dot day today hope to get them all filled this year. Been in Naseby for the weekend so a quick find on the way home.
We have cached most of Palmerston but had to snag and tag this one before leaving town. Cheers
Its Anzac Day 25 April and we have an event at Palmerston. So its a day in Palmerston today with a walk up Puketau in the mix.
Its another awesome geoventure to Dunedin, with The Seagnoid, Zara, Toby, Jack, Jill and William all along for the trip. Had a wonderful 10 days exploring Dunedin. It was great catching up with local cachers at several events we attended. Lots of walking and driving, with the odd cycle and wave ride to jazz things up. Thanks to all the COs that made this trip a wonderful success. Even managed to bag some lab caches along with wherigos, earth caches and events, with the usual mix taking us to some amazing places..

Just about to head out of town. Quick stop along the way.
Taybeedragon and I have an eleven day Easter weekend in Dunedin. Although, let's face it, given that we are from Blenheim and Picton that means two of those days was spent in travelling. In that time we grabbed a smidge over three hundred caches. Not bad, considering the amount of time spent way out on the back roads, on bicycles or canoeing on the water. A few virtuals, larges, letterboxes, earths, wherigos, and even ten lab caches in the haul. An awesome weekend!

After going up Puketapu and having my lunch, I still had some time to have a bit of a walk around the town and pick up a few more caches. Last cache for today. Thanks
Called here this afternoon. It was clear where the cache should be, problem was that there were evil spiky plants guarding it. Had to return to the vehicle to get some more ammunition and then a quick find. Signed log, TFTC.
Today is grabbing some caches to reach my 2500 which I plan to do at the top of Palmerston Hill so with that in mind I needed to grab 12 today before facing the hill and this was one of them. Thanks for bringing us on a different road in giving us a different view of the section of the network. The Muggle friend I had is used to getting request for truck for permits on these roads and could see what they look like, so win-win. Now onto the next one.
A quick park and grab while out about heading to Cromwell for new years eve. Grabbing a few caches to get my numbers up so I can crack 2000 before the end of the year. TFTC
Heading to Middlemarch for a caching weekend and had the morning to fill in before meeting BCD at Palmerston. No one about today so a nice quick find. TFTC

Found with Granville86a on a lovely weekend for a caching trip to Palmerston. Thanks for your cache placement
Love quick ones on road trips. On a 11 day caching trip around the south island. Log signed as b+p. Find # 3692. Thanks for the cache Big smoke
A day out in Palmerston for Hevic and I. A park and walk around the neighbourhood seemed to be the way, so we started at this point. Not too bad, though I did get a bit nervy at the big dumb bees hanging around the area. Cache was in good nick though it took us a couple of minutes to find it. Cheers!
#2174. I have just flown south today to attend a conference in Oamaru and so have a few hours before nightfall to pick up some caches en route. These are my southernmost caches so far. Will be back this weekend to pick up more around Dunedin. Saw on the GPS there were a few caches in Palmerston so drove into the town to pick up several. Stopped the car, looked at the possibilities and the cache was a quick find. Signed and replaced as found. Thanks for the cache.
on the way to moeraki we looked for some caches and found this one. thanks for showing and greetings from germany.
I can understand why there is a Stop signs on each of the four roads here. It has the potential to be a dam dangerous intersection if one road had the right of way.
Cheers for the cache.
Cheers for the cache.
Thanks to all the owners of the geocaches that we found today on our way from Naseby to Ranfurly, Palmerston and Moeraki. We had a beautiful day with a lot of found caches!
TFTC and greetings from Belgium.
