We were not stumped for long. A pleasant evening stroll along the beach, which we shared with a few
dog walkers. One of the locals passing by asked us if we had found the geocache. Was it THAT obvious? TFTC

Big Grin joint FTF with nzyeti, and were so stoked to find that no-one else had beaten us to it! Big Grin Such a beautiful bay with a glass sea, and absolute peace and tranquility when we were there - a surprise when one walks around the corner. We enjoyed the walk to get there too, and if didn't have a very busy and long day ahead would have loved to linger in the area. Thanks for bringing us here. Left Roundball Rowdie TB and took a little pink dragonfly for my Granddaughter. TFTC
cheers

Yay!! SmileSmile

09:32 am Joint FTF with Shellnz who was visiting the district!

Even on a grey spring day it was a beautiful spot.

Thanks SO MUCH nzkiwigirl for bringing us here.
I think it's one of the prettiest parts of Omokoroa that I have seen, and would probably not have discovered it, but for you Smile

Am looking forward to coming back to this beach in the summer and having a picnic.

TFTC.
