Nice walk this afternoon clearing out some caches I had stored onto my phone. It would have been easier if my GPS didn't decide to have as much accuracy as trying to use a stick.

Nice to find this walkway from camping ground - pity our bikes are at home !! Tftc
Super-duper quick find ... spotted it before i'd even started looking. Good to have the geo-spouse with me again after she had been at a Toastmasters conference in the city all weekend. Last cache in the series ... time to calculate final coordinates.
TFTC!

#486 Found on a riverbank run in the rain. I tried to find this one a year or so ago when I first started caching, and I couldnt find it. This time it was no problem so experience helps!
Not too sure whether it had been washed away by the recent floods but could not find?? 
Just as well were not short, but no pen and I forgot one!! Found with Aly2557
Lovely sunny afternoon stroll - retrieved Irish geocoin. TFTC

A nice location and it has been interesting to see the level of the Manawatu river over the last few days. Cache was found easily. TFTC.
Down from Tauranga for nephews wedding thought we would do a bit of caching while we are here. Lovely walk around this park. TFTC
Nice easy find, my fifth in this series. Had trouble putting it back though- river track was very busy as there was a kids' cycle race about to begin!
We struck an optimal time of the day to look for this cache (between 2 and 3pm) it seems as we didn't spot anyone whilst we slowly worked our way around the location.

Decided to have an early morning walk prior to work. Quickly spotted the hiding place when I looked up. TFTC
Took the long way round to nab this smiley, geo mum huffing & puffing trying to keep up. Thanks.
Quick find and a good hide. First one in the series for me. TFTC. Found with Tommygun9
Another quick find by Mr All7ofusNZ and Jr Cacher #2 on a cycle around the city. TFTC.
Find #1527. Found on a cycle ride of the river. Clever hide and not to difficult to retrieve even with people around. SL TFTC
Quick find, but good hide! Had to stop in again on the return trip from this series, as we forgot to get the code.
Slight detour off the main path- leaving the rest of the family to go for some refreshment in the cafe. Soon located cache so had met them again by the aviary before getting to the cafe.
Lots of muggles around tonight, quick find but had to wait to retrieve it ! Great hide
TFTC - out with guide group. 1 out of 2 groups found. Really good hidden place. Another group went for a swim almost as bark up the wrong tree.
Nice hide... Few muggles around on a beautiful Wednesday afternoon... But found and replaced between the hordes of walkers and cyclists... TNLN TFTC
Great location Good hiding place a few Muggles about but managed to rehide cache
Went for a walk with umbrellas in the rain this afternoon to pick up some of the caches in the area. Circled around the hint object with eyes wide open and spied something out of place very quickly. Signed log, TFTC!
updated log: found originally by will'n'grace, now called willeraus and cazzamatazz
What a great location. Found during final clean up of a few caches on our NZ holiday. SL TFTC
TFTC. A bike ride along the river with a few stops along the way to find some caches.
What a neat place lots of cyclists passing even saw guy over river having a pee!!! (He didn't know we were watching[:0])
Nice quick find while attending the Incremental Event in the park today.
Thanks for the fun.

busy with walkers and dog muggles today but quick find. Good hide We are onto it now heading for no. 6
In town visiting parents. Spent afternoon with a friend at local cafe and she took me for a drive through the Esplanade to see the blossoms. As I had my GPS we decided to find a cache too. My GPS took a while to pick up the signals but once ready an easy find. Thanks for the cache. Glad my friend was with me as I had trouble getting the log out.
Today was a good day to find this cache as there wasn't so many people walkingn in the rain. TFTC
Took us ages to find, we were getting very despondent after reading all the quick find logs. We were definitely barking up the wrong tree.TFTC
I spent my student days in Palmy (many years ago I must admit) but can't remember ever walking along this lovely walkway. (Wasn't on the pub circuit I suppose!). Only one in the series I've had time for this visit. Will have to try and get the others the next time I come to P Nth. TFTC
The first of this series for us while doing quite a few caches in the park and along the river.
A few muggles about this morning but it was earlier enough that there were large breaks between the waves.

Easy find. Came out of the forest at just the right point. Enjoying the series. Thanks.
This is a clever series- so glad I did it. This is one of the best I've seen. TFTC
The weather is turning! So we had a go this, what a nice and easy find.
Thanks for setting this up.

An easy find while exploring some of the parks in Palmerston North. Unfortunately we did not had the time to do all of the series.
Found it pretty fast during my weekend run. Surprisingly, no people around...
