Logs
As the placement has been covered by a portable bank, I am going to archive this cache.
Found the previous log intriguing. I was in the area on the way to a meeting, but the driver did not want to stop. From the short glimpse I got, the report is correct. GZ is now a number of shipping containers, connected together and it is indeed a BNZ Bank.
So, now if you want to sign the log, you will first have to break into the bank, then cut a hole in the floor, to find the cache and make good your escape.
All in a normal day geocaching

Like last time I came past here, too many muggles to take a look. To be honest, I didn't notice this BNZ shipping container bank here last time - I thought there were a couple of seats here... Maybe I'm thinking of a cache outside a different New World! Haha. Did get out of the car this time, walked around the bank, but still waaay too many muggles to be able to have a search, especially given the rather daunting search area.
Not too many Muggles today, so no trouble to take a good look, all over. But nothing.
Working in Sth Waikato and time for a few caches after work with Casserley Family. The second of a disappointing run of missing caches in Tokoroa.
Heading to the south Waikato to get some new and old caches. Have the bike in the boot incase it is needed.
Fine and clear and about 26degrees and no clouds.
Didn't find it

Definately at two of a kind. But no cache. Lots of diversion required to distract muggles!
Murphy's law i picked on the wrong one first & got a wet bum sliding up & down feeling my way without trying to draw much attention,but soon had it in hand. Thankyou.
Another cache I've visited before but did not log as DNF. Today, New World was closed for Easter Good Friday. No muggles... no struggles. Found cache easily. TFTC.
Felt a wee bit conspicuous hunting here. Had a reasonable look but I often tend to miss these nano's.
Was off to do the shopping, so finished our drinks at GZ. Lots of mugglers around, but managed to retrieve without arousing too much attention. Love this type of nano. Also looked at the carving from a distance. TFTC
Late Sunday afternoon so a quiet time at the cache area.
Great little nano, thank you!
The new carving is soooo excellent, most impressive!

#3118. Luckily the there were no muggles at GZ, so it was a quick find in the hot sun. TFTC.
Didn't take long to track it down. Nice sculpture too.
And I can recommend the hot pies that New World here sells.

Heading home from a short break in Tuapo and decided to stop off and the nearby lake for a picnic with the kids. Decided to stop by and do this one first. Managed to find the cache before the next shower came down. TFTC
#2584. Checked out the Talking Pole nearby. Interesting. Some stealth and a little waiting required. TNLNSL. TFTC.
Parked nearby, after a quick search it was located

Started to look, but then some roudy young ones approached and we felt safer back in the car. Will have another go next time.
A quick find before stocking up on provisions and heading south to Turangi. Nice to bump ito the CO and have a chat as well. TFTC
had to be careful of muggles around but we just sat there and waited patiently. TFTC
We managed to find this without too much trouble by using the tie your shoe laces technique

3.40pm - Rather quiet here today so had know problem locating cache, maybe it's the rugby keeping everyone home. SLTFTC
Got close, but too muny muggles waiting in cars nearby to have a decent hunt. I had them looking worried as it was.
A quick find with Crystal Fairy while travelling south from Auckland. Signed log, TFTC.

cold wet big fingers not a good start for these little caches-took longer to roll the log up than to find it lol-all good with a coffee from the supermarket-cheers jumboz
7401 Quick find… no muggle problems tonight… they were all tucked up nice and warm in bed… something that we are looking forward to, TFTC.
How the old town has changed. Used to come here for pizza on Friday evening - not the mass produced type of the chain shops of recent years.....
30 years on, and the town still has some familiar faces!

Just a small cache
prob need to use just a small square as I note the log will get used a lot faster if folk use more than 1
