Spent the night in the WOW car park in our motor home. Picked up the smart phone to check for nearby caches and we were practically parked beside it! Sorted out an after dinner circuit of amazing caches. This was very clever and one we think we might have to copy for Central Otago.
Google helped understanding here. Found on visit to Nelson. Had been to WOW (show and exhibition) ages ago. TFTC
So clever! Is actually an easy one to retrieve when the area is busy. http://www.geocaching.com/images/icons/icon_smile_cool.gif
#834 Grabbed this one while waiting for the museum to open after flying in this morning. Quick find, thanks!
Another quick find in the area, not too many cars around (only one passed by while i was at the GZ) but then it was still dark

Makka pakka 2 went out to see what he could find to day. Nice quick cache TFTC
After visiting my old workplace, I went for a wonder and found this cache very quickly. Thanks
Wow!! i wasn't expecting that. Found more by accident than skill. Oh the cleverness of you! And all the cachers who put so much time and thought into this sport. I am soooo enjoying it. Thankyou.
Teehee second visit and we found it, had sister jumping up and down with me....hmmm we weren't very stealthy got some funny looks may need some practice...very very cool camo! TFTC
WOW - he he - this one has sat here unfound for such a long time...what's wrong with all you NZ cachers??? MrMad found it straight away as he has a similar cache sitting at home waiting to go out...so no tricking the Aussies. We were off to the museum with the art students next. Thanks for the cache.
My last find of this trip, I was pleased to find it after lucking out the last couple of times . TFTC
In town for a wee holiday to catch up with Mr G's brother who's visiting from Oz. Driving past so made a quick park and grab. Nicely done. Not very busy so easily accomplished. Cheers.
On holidays from Melbourne Aust.
Staying with family so decided to sign off on some local caches.

This was my last cache of the day which daddy tells me was number 6 for me even if it was just one today for mummy and daddy. No-one had to get out of the car for this one which suits me just fine! We had a lovely drive around and lots of snoozing for me which everyone was very happy about. TFTC!
A nice quick one to start the afternoon off, a busy intersection but not too many problems. Cheers
Great rainy day out with the boy on our bikes. Love the plastic paper to write on when you're wet through. Nice one Sobad.
No aibohphobia here and spotted the cache instantly as I approached. Signed log, TFTC!
Great cache!! Counting down the metres towards it but spotted it 20m out!!

I was amazed by this. I looked around the place but it is so well camoflarged, my dad had to point it out. Thank you so much SoBad I loved it.
Out for a couple of early evening caches. Spotted on approach, quickly retrieved, signed and returned. Went to the museum a couple of years ago. Really should go back and revisit TFTC
Love these types of caches! TFTC

Sitting in a meeting this evening when I suddenly realised I hadn't found a cache today. Swung by this one on the way back to Richmond for a quick find. Interesting to learn a new word, pleased it's something I don't suffer from as it'd cause havoc when I go visit dad or my good friend Hannah. Anyway, with the Classic Cars next to WOW I'll leave you with this little thought: A Toyota! Race fast... safe car: a Toyota
A quick find after visiting the museum. Thankfully the hide was instantly recognised so I was able to extract the log without drawing the attention of passing muggles.

Found today while biking past. Good to finally get it after many failed attempts while it was missing. Ddnt sign log as forgot our pen. Tftc.
After visiting the WOW, we found this one fast, although we did not know this camouflage yet. Nicely done, found und logged at 15:00.

I had been here once before last time I was in Nelson, but failed that time too - stink! Camo must be super amazing - or I was looking in all the wrong places...
Aibohphobia, I-don't-know-what phobia, let's just not get the phobia, obviously not got cache-aphobia - set our radar to get cache in broad daylight. Geocachers are never odd or even suspicious looking eh? Very quiet at GZ this morning.
My GPS threw a wobbly. Found with La Vista during a day caching in the area. TFTC
we stopped briefly so I could find it, integersmirk already had. Yes, we come around this area in rainy days and sometimes even sunny ones! TFTC
Dound with not too much trouble. The trick was being subtle about it in such an exposed area! Pretending to take photos of nearby attractions got me my alibi.

Slight detour on a bike ride to the office dodging the showers, nice to have a distraction. Aibohphobia... How do sebohpohbes get cidohphobic?
Found on returning from MEGA event. TFTC.

I've been looking at this location every time we drove past and trying to find the likely spot for a cache. In the end there was only one place. TFTC
Quick find and sign on a cold windy night,not to many people out tonight ,,[8] Thanx4tc
I love these kind of hides. Managed to complete the cache without looking too suspicious. Tftc
Walked right up to this cache, and grabbed it immediately. Experience teaches us much. Then we were WOWed.
Last find of our trip, as we had to get the car back to the rental place and this was en route.
Wow, I did the deed on the level and bob is your uncle, lol.
Many thanks for the last laugh of day.

#4076. A nice quick find to finish a very successful caching weekend in Nelson. Till next time, thanks for all the caches.
Nobody in the car park but a few driving past us. Quicky found it signed and put back. Really liked the clever cache =)
Wouldnt like to try doing this in daylight,Would take a while I would think,At 9ish at night its fairly quiet although a few cars going past now and again.A quick find by the boys.TFTC
This one gets a favourite for me : simple but so efficient ! I enjoyed it ! Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France.
In town for the day with an hour to kill before heading out again so time for a couple of caches. Nice hide SoBad. TFTC.
This turned out to be a significant milestone find, WOW! Cunning little placement and luckily all quiet on the muggle front here this morning.

A quick stroll with the dog on a beautiful frosty morning and found this one whilst passing. Cool hide!!!
Had me going for a while and finally found it. That's a new one for the memory banks. TFTC
Oops forgot to log this one! Found on the way home from walking the airport perimeter. Quick find as we had seen this kind of hide before. TFTC.
