Today I broke a fundamental rule of geocaching streaks - never get more than one local cache per day. Now that summer is practically here, this cache is definitely local to Petone via bicycle. But what the heck - I have less than 100 caches to go in my streak. I had already grabbed the Wahine Memorial cache and carried on cycling to here. Yeah, that's not true. I cycled tot he bike barrier and pushed the bike to here. I have a road bike and there is no hope of cycling on this loose stone stuff with skinny tyres. I thought this might be a problem find, but actually it was quite straight forward. And a nice stone to sit on while doing the necessaries. And then a nice cycle back to Petone. Arrived home all sweaty, but the painting I did this morning is now dry, so I can get a second coat on. Woohoo!

I really have to bring The Bike With The Fat Tyres along here. Later in summer, I think.

A nice quick find thanks. Last for the day, time to find a supermarket.

Ms_KR and I are off on a wee tour of the North Island. It was a great weather day so we cruised down the Eastern shore of the harbour. New places that we have never been to until today.

Thanks to all CO's for publishing and maintaining their caches. Cheers.

Somehow ninja'd my way in and out of finding this one and didn't even need to get torn up by gorse. Tftc!

I don't know how many times I've been past here without being able to search because of muggles. Today it was sufficiently unbusy that I could determine the location without too much problem and swoop in it get it in between muggles. I went over to the concrete wall to sign the cache and wait for another gap in the muggles. After a quick return I was on my way and finally turned this into a smiley. TFTC.

I was in Wellington today to check out the evening celebrations for Chinese New Year. However, before we got to that bit, my muggle friend and I had decided to take a stroll along the pathway towards Pencarrow Head. Neither of us had ever been here before so it was an opportunity to experience somewhere new.

The cache itself was a fairly straightforward find. The hint helped me locate it quickly, and finding nothing wrong with either cache or logsheet, everything was replaced as found after signing.

Thanks for placing this cache.

Found on a quick trip to Wellington to do some exploring. Decided to explore the eastern side of the harbor and it was a lovely drive. Rather windy (not unexpected) and a bit spitty. But a lovely area this.
A quick walk and grab even saw some lambs.

Having not cached for a long time due to the COVID19 outbreak I decided to grab this one today while we were out for a stroll figuring that it was probably safe. I had some gloves with me. The scenery here is amazing! Thanks heaps for taking the time to set up this cache. I really appreciate your efforts in doing so. TFTC.
