Nice quick find on a warm day. Thanks to all cache owners for taking the time to place and maintain your caches. Team Broadbent (signed TB on micros). Find # 2314
Doing a few around town caches to fill in some time before lunch. A quick find here. TB dropped off. tftc
NB: Tb is a laminated copy so original doesn't go missing

We thought we’d grab this on our way to Timaru for the afternoon on Boxing Day. I like the name tip lady anyway. All well here despite being nine years old. TFTC.
Quick find on deviation returning from holiday in Wanaka. Tip lady is actually a surname in my wider family tree. Tftc. #3561
Maybe lucky last for the year. Someone has made a lovely job of tidying a country corner.
On a 10 Day holiday of the South Island, we are visiting from Australia. Sl thanks for the cache.
I ventured out on my own today as yesterday was a day for housework.
My daughter has a friend whose surname is the same as this road.
Cheers for the cache.

Weekend trip to Oamaru and Dunedin for the Pink Concert so doing some caching on the way. TFTH.
Auf unserer Fahrt von Christchurch nach Lake Tekapo nahmen wir die Caches am Wegesrand mit. Diesen konnten wir gut finden. Danke fürs Legen und Pflegen.
Quick find today. All good here. Thanks Bitsprayer.
We were in Timaru for the traditional family mini golf battle at Caroline Bay. After that, my brother in law Hamish and I did a spot of caching around Timaru and back home via Geraldine. TFTC

Got it! About half a dozen cars stopped(!) to turn onto the road safely and were probably wondering why we were in the sparse tree cover pretending we were invisible. 
Quick search in the bushes and it was found. Sadly the TB had been taken but left another. Found with Conbat. TFTC
Good find on our journey back to Blenheim after watching the Highlanders beat The Lions. TFTC
Out caching today with my favourite people Geo Jessie and Busy Paws (daughter and Mum) had a fantastic day out exploring some interesting places. Many thanks to all the cache owners. TFTC
Day # 7 in New Zealand on a geocaching holiday-trip covering Thailand, Australia and finally my beloved NZ 
.
I had so much looked forward to return to this beautiful country, and now I'm here again - awesome!
Today's tour took me from Timaru via Alpine Roads to Arthurs Pass.
The weather was brilliant throughout the trip
– although very strong winds 
. The landscape was sensational [^] and scenic spots invited for a photo-stop or a little rest - or a little cache ....
Needless to say, that along the route quite a lot of little treasures were waiting to be discovered.
Ended up in rainy
and chilly [B)] Arthurs Pass - but rewarded with 30 Finds - a good days work [^] !
This nice little cutie what's an easy find based on the precise hint.
What a nice area at the scenic route! [^]
Hey - Canterbury and Southern Alps- you have awesome caches [^]!
A big thanks [:X] to all Owners involved [^] for hiding and maintaining.
Cheers from Germany

4. day of our 3 month bicycle tour of NZ, and naturally we had to stop in order to log this cache . Tftc!
We did a journey all around NZ and had an amazing time. The country is absolutely beautiful und we loved our time here. Geocaching was also a good method for us to discover some lonely places, which were also very beautiful.

I decided for a little detour on the way north! Quick find here - then I had to wait for some cars to pass before making my way out of the bushes lol! TFTC!!
Found very easily ...I did suppose the people who saw me emerge from the cluster thought they knew what I was doing !!!! TFTC
This was the last one of the day, hubby found it and signed the log then back to our motel. Thanks for the cache.
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.
Holidays in New Zealand! We have been looking forward to them for years. We had lots of time to prepare ourselves for a great trip. As geocachers, we also picked out a number of great caches. Armed with a "to-do list" and accidental encounters we were lucky to log many caches. Thank you for placing them and keeping the game go on!

The plan was hatched a few years ago now and it has been a standing weekend away with a few of us mad keen cachers. This trip was made up of Karma Reprint, Team_Gaters and me (TheWanglers). We couldn't use a previous anagram to sign the logs as one member was in Aussie. So we had to come up with another... Hmm, KiTT? We decided on KiTT but after signing the first few logs something KR mentioned took a while for me to sink in and I didn't really take on board until the next time I signed the log. "Hey, the double 'TT' looks like Pi!". Oh, that's what KR said! So we signed the log this trip as KaTT pronounced 'Kapai'! And the trip was kapai!!! We had an epic weekend starting with a detour to Peel Forrest for a few FTFs, stopped in Omaru, thrashed Dunedin and detoured to Port Charmers for a FTF and then back to Pleasant Point and Peel Forrest to finish off the weekend with more FTFs. We got home to our families at a respectable hour after clocking up just over 1100km!
We had a few milestones we really wanted to crack. My 4000th, TG's 5000th and KR's 10,000th. We cracked my and KR's goal and got really close for TG. It really is about the numbers. This trip was awesome as it has given me some ideas
I dove into the bushes and came out triumphant as a farmer came out of the culvert on the other side! He was too busy to notice anything.
Thanks for the cache.
