As there's been no cache to find for some time, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.
 
18-Jun-16
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 21 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

A good quick cache not too far from home. The area was pretty deserted at the time so me and the real batman made a quick raid on it. Using the picnic tables as cover we opened it up to find it was waterlogged. Emptied the water out but unable to sign. Nice cache thanks. H&T

Auf dem Weg nach Dunedin, hier den Cache gesucht und danach unsere Einkäufe getätigt. Schöner Park und Dose war gut zu finden. Leider war die komplette Dose durchnässt und wir mussten uns auf ein separates Blatt einloggen.

We made several stops on the way from Invercargil along the Catlins and up to Wanaka for the great view and also for some caches Smile.

A long trip later from Frankfurt via Dubai, Bangkok and Sydney to Christchurch we finally started our three and a half weeks vacation. We tried to see as much as possible from New Zealands nature and also look for some caches. During the whole trip we could even find more than 100 caches Smile.
We finalized the round trip on our very first day by booking some great walk huts and decided to travel clockwise around the Southern Island. It's hard to say which were the highlights, so I would say the whole vacation is our highlight Smile.
Many thanks to all cache owners for showing us a lot of great places! T4TC!

This was one of the over 100 caches in our vacation. After a long trip from Frankfurt via Dubai, Bangkok and Sydney to Christchurch Kansas City Shuffle and I finally started our three and a half weeks trip on the south Island of New Zealand. We tried to see as much as possible from the nature and also look for some caches.
We traveled clockwise around the Southern Island. It's hard to say which were the highlights, so I would say the whole vacation is our one highlight .
Many thanks to all cache owners from Germany!

Came down to Dunedin for the weekend - mostly for the event, but also to catch up with the family Razz
Had a great weekend caching all round the city, getting caches that have been published since my last visit, as well as a few puzzles that I had time for.

After the extra hour event, mum and I went night caching! We came down Balclutha ways, as this was one of the few areas mum hasn't already cleared out nearby!!

Seemed to be Balclutha party night! All these young boys in their utes... we meanwhile quickly and easily made the find Smile

Consec caching day # 518

TFTC!! Smile

NZ road trip with Schlitz13. On our tour we had the time to look for some caches. We found them, and some special places of interest or great views.

TFTC!

For the first time during our visit to New Zealand the weather was getting really worse. We headed north-east for our next destination: Dunedin. But first we visited the very small Te Anau Wildlife Center. The whole day was very cold and we only looked for geocaches and tried to get further on to Dundin. Finally we arrived at the Royal Albatross Center just in time for taking a private tour, that was even in german as the tour guide Sabine and all visitors are german.

Another quick find along the way up to Dunedin, we have to move on, sorry, not time for stopping to long [:o)].

Never had this issue before. Easy find and then the area was descended upon by three teenage muggles so it was the rehide that tested our patience. TFTC
