Had a good look around here today, as only one car with no occupant in parking area. Looks like cache may have gone walkies. Someone has recently dumped lawn clippings just over the fence at GZ. A shame if cache has gone, as there was a recent TB drop. Would CO mind checking on this one ? Cheers.

Thanks for the alert. I'll head over and take a look.

Greetings from Hastings. Up with the family for a few days visiting the local attractions and of course grabbing as many caches as possible. Here now in Papamoa for a few days on the beach. Staying at the nearby campground, nice to grab the nearby caches. First finder for the new year it looks like. Not too many people here today.

Also put a new log book in.

On the way to Rotorua we had to fulfill a mission: bringing Kiwi Traveller back home. So we did a little walk at the beach and after that we dropped him in his owner's cache.

Cheers,

Happy Fathers Day to all the Dad's
We spent a full day of caching from Rotorus to Tauranga. Travelling along your beautful sea front, forestry & close to the town centre.
We found a great selection of caches.
Thanks for placing this cache SplattyNZ

I'm sure it would have been a quick find if those people weren't parked right there! We waited, but they didn't move. Another time.
 
21-Apr-14
Had to use stealth as there was a couple of muggles in a parked car on fence line.
Smelled like something had died - when reaching for the cache had a strong rotten smell enter my nostrils that was hard to cope with. SLTN TFTC

Good quick find on a rainy day - I've found a few surprises in caches before but none of the green smoking variety!! Lol 6 year old nephew quickly had cache removed from his hands! Looked at me strange and asked what it was!! So we turned it into a trash out cache and got rid of the smoking apparatuses that was on the ground next to gz and broken glass that was around and put it in the nearby bin! TFTC - day 10 of the August challenge complete!

Hooray - our 350th cache! (Very appropriate as my maiden name was Taylor!) Found after managing to distract the attention of muggles who were parked in a car right next to the cache, enjoying their lunch. SL. TFTC Smile
 
29-Jul-13
Nice easy find thanks
 
09-Jul-13
Nice easy find with Dog & Kids Smile
Log was a bit damp, but otherwise ok.
Some broken glass close by and I had nothing to collect it in....
 
11-Jun-13
Easy find thanks. Great walk on the beach instead of in the bush.
 
25-May-13
On the way to a geo-seance at the "Mount" Went to this one as it was southern most and we were on a northern most direction. We could have saved ourselves a few K's, when we realised there were two caches in the same park.

Your picture of your Black Lab Dog gave me tears. I lost one as a puppy to a motorbike and one to a broken marriage. The picture is a gem. I love Lab dogs and black is the best.

Thanks SplattyNZ
 
18-May-13
Yay our first cache!!
 
04-May-13
Enjoyed a day caching in the Papamoa reserves and along the coastline today.

An easy find thanks to the hint. We had to be careful not to be seen as there were several workmen and vehicles at the other end of the parking area, and then a family arrived to walk their dogs at our end. We used the car as a screen, conveniently had to lift the bonnet! TN (except a Munzee capture), LN, SL. Thanks!
 
04-May-13
A quick dash with the kids just before dinner beat darkness but not the approaching rain clouds to knock off this easy cache.

Feeling like having an easy afternoon, we thought we'd go for a drive to pick up some caches in Papamoa. First find of the day, totally empty car park and beach, apart from a couple of kite surfers. Beautifully sunny, but a tad too windy to hang around for too long. TFTC Smile

P.S. Took big smile fish TB

Found at 8:41 AM GAFF1 in the company of Phetlern. With all of the caches that you and Mosh have placed, we wonder if Mosh can now smell them out for you. Wouldn't that be cool.
Thanks SplattyNZ

Travelling in company with Pprass we opted for a more balanced day around the Bay of Plenty - less kilometres and more caches. This cache was quickly located by C-Pprass and our names added to the log.

TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt SplattyNZ.

A nice quick find before taking the dogs for a walk. Lost the GPS on the beach somewhere though. Maybe it will push home and find its way back.

There was a father trying to teach his young son how to hit golf balls in the reserve. Somehow I don't think he is going to be the next Tiger Woods!
