Was in town for a funeral today ... (you were and angel with broken wings flying too close to the ground little Maddox) decided to take some time out and put some smilies on the map (maybe seeing a smily will help improve the mood of the day) with 2 finds already my smile took a down turn on this one

pretty sure I know where is was meant to be but appears to not be there .... I'll add to watch list and return if co checks or someone else finds...

I followed the hint instructions, but I couldn't find the cache. However, I did find a tiny nest, with the tiniest eggs. I suspect the fern tree frond it is attached to might have fallen lower. There was no sign of the parents while I was there, so perhaps the eggs have been abandoned in their now low position.

Staying in TA for a few days, but mostly working during daylight, so snuck out after dark to grab a few caches tonight. Always nice to find a larger cache containing trades, and in this case a TB. TFTC Smile

We were at Te Awamutu for a couple of days so I could get out and locate a couple of caches each day. Nice little track at Fonterra's back door. The little song. certainly made the find easy and it was quickly retrieved, signed, made a swap of the travel Bugs. And then replaced. Thank you for this cache and another smiley face.

My second day on a cache run to Taranaki together with Slieschke. Today the goal was to explore the Forgotten World Highway and to make our way back to Auckland. We decided to take a longer break in Hamilton to help celebrating its 150th birthday with fireworks and a Time Warp. Easy find at GZ. TFTC

The first day of School Holidays... On a mission with Gap (of Fap and Gap) to re-trace steps to Raglan. Lost a gps unit along the way, so we're hoping to find it at one of last weekends' cache finds... We're cache hunting as we go.

This cache was disabled the last time I visited, so good to finally find it. This was a quick find and a big hide. We didn't have time to go down the boardwalk Sad TFTC.

2pm - After visiting Raglan last weekend, misplacing our GPS somewhere, decided to back track this weekend to Raglan but by a different route to try to find it. Well the only thing found was caches, no GPS.
