By Bitsprayer on 16-Nov-10. Waypoint GC2JB59

TFTC container lid has gone

A nice quick find on this one while my sister turned the campervan around somehow. I was keen to get this one as it ticked off another minute for the latitude minutes challenges I'm workingvon. Thanks for the cache!

Located with Ricardinho Another quick park & grab off the road by a cool memorial. Day 2 of our road trip to the Geo MEGA in Dunedin. Today we were travelling from Christchurch to Dunedin & my only request to RNZ was a compulsory stop in Oamaru. I love it there & wanted to visit the old quarter again. RNZ is targeting those caches that had decent fave points, on our side of the road, or generally looked interesting to him. He also made a detour to place a cache & scope out a location for another cache. A very busy & successful day & the weather was lovely TFTC

A nice memorial here just off the main road.Cache was found pretty quick, but it was missing a lid. Rock on top, but needs maintenance.TFTC Bitsprayer.Day 2 of our trip to the MEGA. Today was Christchurch to Dunedin. We started the travel early as we had the idea it might be a long day. And with a few detours and traffic holdups, as well as obligatory stops for caches, it was. We just winged it today, depending on how we were going for time. But we targeted those that had decent fave points, were on our side of the road, or generally looked interesting. Add in those detours, including a cache placed, and another maybe in the pipeline, and it was a full day. Thanks all COs and lets hope the weather for tomorrow is not too bad.

tmann421 and I are on our way south to attend the MEGA, picking up a few caches on the way.We enjoyed all the caches found and thank the cache owners for their efforts in maintaining these for us to findLog signed tm/ww NZTFTC

Nice find with woolwood9 today. Heading slowly down towards the MEGA in Dunedin.SL *tm/ww NZ**Thanks for the fun cache* Only half container in place with wet paper.

New container needed, lid missing.

It has been ripped apart and needs fixed

Had a good look but did not find

Scanning through some other logs appeared to be in the right place but, no where to be found.

The cache is dry and in good condition. Unusual ? to find a memorial away from a settlement; TFTC

Love the quick drive bys on a road trip.

Another interesting spot I planned a ski trip with hubby and friends. Then I had a couple of biopsies dine on my arm. So no skiing for me so I decided to cache instead. Thank you Bitsprayer for this cache.

======== NZ Mega 2021 ========
Planning for the NZ Mega 2021 event is well underway. It will be held in Auckland over Labour Weekend, October 2021.

Cache was a quick find with Busypaws and I love caches that bring me to memorials

Apologies for the cut and paste logs for these few. Out and about on a stunning day getting lots of smileys in the wonderful back roads of the Geraldine area. Lytteltonwitch and I had no problems with these caches, most being quick and easy finds. TFThides C.owners.

A quick find. Thanks for bringing me to this spot! Helping with a challenge I am doing.

Thanks was a great first one

#18237. The road layout was a bit confusing (on the GPSr), but we managed to work out we had to turn on to the side road. Cache was a quick find. Not sure if the nearby stone was supposed to be on top (it wasn't when I found it, but I left the stone on top). TFTC.

Found with StreetWalkerNZ on day one of a 4 day trip down south to Oamaru, a consolation holiday for us, as in a COVID-19 free world, we would currently be in Seattle .
An unexpected spot to find a memorial, as an out of the way location. Parked on the wee triangle separating the roads, and walked up to GZ. Nice view point. TFTC.

Easy find, great views too!

Easy find

While getting up the hills this was a quick stop and find.

Came out to meet friends in temuka for a caching day had some spare time so ducked out to grab these. Great little bit of history here and I would have never known it was here if it wasnt for this cache. tftc

On a cashing weekend in South Canterbury with my sister NZ Bozzy
TFTC - quick find
Thanks for all the caches up this way - much appreciated

#26 there were lots of New Zealanders killed in the wars tools lots of our young men

Cheers for the drive by.

Cheers for this one, a tad of caching while out visiting people. Nice view

Found on a great geocaching day on the middle of the country not a man made sou d to be heard apart from the ticking of my clock in the car TFTC

Went and got 3 more this morning on my way to the Clandeboye site for the mozzarella plant opening today.

On a mission around South Canterbury/North Otago. 114 found caches today. Thanks to all the CO's for their effort. Sorry about the cut and paste. TFTC.

I came to Pleasant Point to attend a caravan rally and then to sign off as many caches as I can. This was my last day here and so I ventured a bit further afield. It is amazing that a memorial is in the middle of nowhere with no other buildings around it.

Cheers for the cache.

Good hide. TFTC

Stopping off for the odd cache. Thanks.

Did a couple if easy ones while up this way for work. Tftc

A 4 legged muggle of the pussy cat kind was keeping an eye on us as we cleaned our shoes after stepping in the usual country hazard. TFTC

Nice wee hide, TFTC

Good hide

Found on the way to CHCH from Lake Tekapo

Nice find, many thanks

Staying with family in Temuka for Christmas, I had a couple of hours spare to do some caching. Decided on a loop through Pleasant Point and the hills behind Timaru. Great views over the downs and to the North.TNLN SL TFTC!

Yahoo. Fourth find today.

Found it on our trip around the South Island.

Found at 8:31:00 a.m. on 15/11/2014.

These caches were found during a trip to South Canterbury to attend the South Island Orienteering Championships.

... quick easy find, no need for a GPS for this one!!

It was easier for the the boss and our guest to find it following the hint, than for me with the GPS!!!

Another great find

Tftc

Thought it was time I caught up on logging my found caches.
Thought I would try this different way home again and see how many more I could find.
BINGO! Another smiley to add to the list.

Took a bit of a detour on the way back to the motel after work to grab a few caches. The GPS suggested I drove to this one via a fiord...was game to give it a go until I saw how muddy and rocky and unsuitable for non-4 wheel drive vehicles...So backed out and went a more conventional way...easy park and grab.
