Given the last find logged was more than a year ago, we suspect this cache has...Sailed away...ahem
Put us down for a DNF on this one.

It seems this cache truly has sailed away... or I am blind?

though upon exit did notice lady on balcony 2nd house over has a pretty good view of goings on!

2 DNFS for what is a rather easy find suggest the cache has indeed been muggled. Shame! We've moved away from the area so time to archive it and free up the spot for someone else. Thanks to everyone who found it and logged their visit.
A quick find with the help of the clue. Didn't notice a tb in it but left one.
I went to visit the Ambassador and Lady Emily Rose Darkwood this afternoon, and while there I took the Ambassador out to the site of this temporal anomaly, as he wanted to see what all the fuss was about. The Home Office has sent me a missive requesting that I keep an eye on the Ambassador's residence, as there are several such anomalies nearby. We found the anomaly quite easily. It was secure, with only a little flotsam around. We did not take or leave anything this time.

Finally on a computer that's ancient,will download a stack of caches.

Spent some time caching whilst on way to take biggle to ferry for camp. She'd been wanting to play on the stumps for awahile and was very happy when we got there.
4th find for the day while in Auckland visiting family. Quick find, Signed Log, TFTC.
Out for a day of caching with Hastingus in NZ. Our first find for the day. Left Geocoin.
Out with Cabahassett today, beautiful day, beautiful spot, cache quickly found and log signed. TFTC
Easily found - Fortunately fairly quite at GZ today - normally this is a very busy spot.
Out on the Peninsula hopefully finding a few caches.
What a great sized cache this is. Keep up the good work in placing these. Pity, I didn't have a TB to put in it.
Cheers for the cache.

Quick find, did this one when it was dark so I didn't have to worry about any muggles spotting me out, I would imagine that the beach would be packed during a sunny weekend.
Cache was spotted instantly from the right angle, tried to rehide it a little better so it doesn't get muggled. Cheers Gav [8175]
NZ11. I had to wait for some teenagers to move off, but then it was a fun little hunt and find. Thanks.

Found with Biggles while caching in the area. Not too muggly on a work day. Thanks.
Found on day 2 of a 3 day Auckland cache raid with Kiwi Explorer. A more relaxing day all round in which we ONLY found 68 caches. It just had to be in one of the obvious features at GZ. Luckily it was. TFTC, Biggles.
Nice morning for it.Easy find.
A few muggles on the beach, but not near GZ.
Thanks for sharing this spot.

Trying to save caches close to home in my quest to complete the calendar by Feb 2012 but needed one today as I have just arrived back from the States and now off to Japan tomorrow. Would have lost about 10000km from my total if I didnt grab a Kiwi cache between. Closing in on the 1million mile mark after knocking off the km milestone.
Thanks for the quick find

TFTC muggles about at picnic table, but had backs to us, was still able to locate it easily, left fridge magnets and googly eye.
Lots of muggles around but none in the immediate vicinity so made for a quick find by Mrs Pastamaker. Nice little hide and lovely view.

Parked - cache out - logged - cache in - back in the car in 1.5 mins. TFTC... a nice easy one to pump the numbers....hope muggles aren't interested in stumps.

parked just nearby in the carpark to start our walk up the beach, Mrs BMNZ and the littlies had this one and swaps in action before Mr BMNZ could even walk from the car with the drink bottles! Who ever put in the lovely butterfly necklace should be happy to know miss 5yr old BMNZ lierally hasnt taken it off since she got it. lovely beach day and plenty were enjoying it. TFTC.
Very easy find on a lovely summer day. Someone has placed a beer bottle in front of the cache but still managed to spot it. TFTC
G and I made a quick find here, though I made the grab as she is too short!
Busy place today, many thanks for the cache

Very quiet down on the beach today at this pleasant spot. Dropped of T/B. TFTC
We were in the area with FMZ & 10 cent coin after an earlier FTF close by. Cache was an easy find under the cover of darkness. TFTC
Quite aware of where this cache would be as the youngest member of the team fell off this while mucking around instead of doing sailing training last year. TFTC
This cache was published just as we were about to head off from Tramper Ted's xmas event. Detoured for an FTF on the way home and then figured why not go for a drive up here too. Glad I did. Nice hide at a great spot. Not too many about this evening - a few enjoying the beach but no one near GZ, so could take a seat and perform the paperwork while enjoying the lovely view. And as an added bonus, FTF TFTC!!!
TFTC!!!
