This is close to where we are staying so geoP, Skulldaddy and the Queen went for a wander and a look with no luck.

What we did find was a lovely NZ sunset, then sun disappeared below the water just as quick as it does in Darwin NT Australia ..... Blink and you'll miss it. A few muggles were standing around on the beach and path mesmorised until it went down the they went on their way.

Despite the list of DNF's on the cache it was too close to our accommodation for the night not to give it a try. There was quite a bit of rubbish near GZ which made our search quite tentative, we did however see a spectacular sunset so all was not lost. Thanks for bringing us here Moneydork. Cheers from Australia [^]

To tired and wet last night to do this even though we were right next door - but the lovely warm spa instead gave us the uuuummph to get up in the morning and tidy this up before we heaed up the coast home to Mot - certainly enjoyed our caching on the west coast Smile thanks
 
29-Jul-11
We were going to head away today and we were staying next door we decided we had better do this one Smile. We were heading to come to it lastnight but the spa pool became far more attractive as heavy rain set in Smile. Was a good grab before heading our way home after a great few days on the coast Smile. Already looking to do another trip but first need to correct my PQ system to stop allowing archived caches comming thru GRRRR!!!. TFTC Smile

#1542 (18/18 CHC to Greymouth). After a long drive (with a number of detours) we finally reached our comfortable accommodation at the nearby Top 10. Went for an evening walk to find a couple of nearby caches.This one was straightforward (we did one near here last visit that was rather more troublesome, due in part to me reading the wrong cache description). TFTC.

Annie went hunting this cache with friends in the school holidays, and only then realised that she'd never found this one before. So PB had to hunt himself tonight - which was no trouble of course!! Went for a stroll along the beach track after finding the cache. Lovely sunny spring evening.
