As this cache has been out of action for too long and the cache owner has not responded or performed any maintenance, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

DNF seems no obe can find this one

Spent a long time here - nothing

No friendly neighbour around to help us
DNF

Nope couldn't find it today.

Lucked out here!

No luck on this one

Gave it a darn good effort by torch at 9:30pm but no muggles nor caches to be seen. Cheers

Already tried to find this one before but had no luck came again with sonia26642 and managed to find it eventually.

Came down to Dunedin for the weekend for a competition on Saturday, but had to make the most of time and do some caching while at it!
Mum wasn't in town, and so instead I went out caching with my brother.

There were a few of these start of the peninsula type caches that I still haven't found, and so decided to do that before going home after the competition.

Struggled a lot here... until as we were getting back into the car, the neighbour gave us a hint! If I had known we were looking for a nano, not a micro, this would have been easier... but armed with this new knowledge, find was easy.

Thanked neighbour, and we were on our way!

Consec caching day # 475

TFTC!!

Found it. This time lucky, had mind set to where and size of cache [eclipse container] how wrong i was.
TFTC

This bus bowled us over.

yes! Finally (after a hint from a previous finder) tftc

Maintenance check, still in place

Quick find, after a systematic search, thanks

No cache in sight, had two adults searching all around for a good 15 minutes.

Sorry couldn't see or feel it anywhere!

A couple of dnfs don't always mean mia. Happy caching

A quick find...T.F.T.C.

Didn't expect to find this one given the run of DNFs and the fact that I'd had a vague hunt for it before. Fully expected to need to use my back up to keep the run of finds going but came up trumps - now 8 consecutive days of finds. TFTC.

A check on this one would be appreciated. Cheers.

Please check as this could be MIA.

No go on this one. Please check as this one could be MIA.

I couldn't find this geocache, maybe I'll have better luck next time!

Had a good look around. It isn't where I expected it to be ... And then a bus stopped for me!!!

first one for the afternoon, nice hide, TNLNSL

TFTC

On days like this you love the sheltered bus stops. Nice shelter from the rain. TFTC

Two bus stop DNFs in a row

Easy find, thanks.

Found it, tftc !

Nice fine after the rain

TFTC

Found with the assistance of the lady from across the road who could see I was struggling. I explained the game to her. TFTC

Took a bit of a hunt to get this one, was just about to head back to the car when it turned up. TFTC

Sneaky hide. Got the thumbs up from the woman opposite as i was putting it back. Also signed the extra geo stash that someone's Mummy signed on Christmas day. TFTC #4352

On our trip on the South Island of NZ we found over 100 geocaches and this geocache did it part to that. Thanks for leading us here and discovering all the different hiding places.

Our first Geocach! Our 8 year old loved it. Thanks

Bus stop tour today, but didn't get every one!

Found on Leftover Day- a caching run dedicated to having another stab at the DNFs, doing those mysteriosly left out, doing the new caches added during the Mega.

This was a DNF. Not any more!

Had success with the others along here, but not this one despite there being five sets of eyes looking.

Despite having a good look the team finally conceded defeat so we could move on to the next bus stop.

Yes, I think it is another bus stop ! But this one did take two pairs of cold eyes to locate it.

Oh well, we tried....but couldn't find it. Obviously just well hidden.

Thanks anyway....

A cold and wet Dunedin afternoon for our last day caching here with the Walenators. Had to get a photo of Every St while we were here as the Chief is a Dire Straits fan! TFTC

We are out for the day with the Earthbound's whilst on our NZ Mega Trip. Cache was quickly located, logbook signed and cache replaced. Lovin these bus stops. TFTC

A quick find on my mega caching trip around the peninsular...very busy around here! Thanks for the Cache!

Found during 'The Gangsters' trip to New Zealand, being Big Matt, The Rats, steeba and myself.

Another quick find.

Thanks Castlewood Crew for the cache.

Sorry couldn't locate the cache anywhere.

Our 6403rd overall find.

Found on the "Gangsters" NZ Mega 2012 trip with steeba, The Rats and Farmer Frentzen. Another quick find

Thanks Castlewood_Crew for the cache. Stats for our trip can be found here http://www.campersdownunder.com.au/geocaching/NZTrip/stats2.html

Found as part of the Gangsters- The Rats, Farmer Frentzen and Big Matt and Shell- as part of our NZ Mega Event Tour 2012.

A bus came down the street whilst we were here but thankfully did not want to stop in our parking spot! TFTC!

Found this cache as part of the Gangster's Aussie assault on the first NZ Mega with Big Matt, FarmerFrenzten and steeba.

We quickly made our way through this series of bus stops.
Thanks

There was a theme forming with the caches along this stretch of road... Lucky we were in the groove and they were coming to hand quite quickly... This one took a fraction longer though and once Kaisho53 had found the container we spotted the unusual method of attachment.

Our 37th of 65 finds today.

Day 3 on our 6 day caching trip to Dunedin for the NZ MEGA 2012 event with Gunnie69, Kaisho53, Ozibags, ghostgums and MrMeccano. We started early under clear skies and headed out along the Otago Peninsula through Macandrew Bay, Portobello and Harrington Point to Taiaroa Head and back through Pukehiki to Anderson Bay and then back to base in Dunedin

TFTC, Castlewood_Crew!

Our van could have been a bus. Another find to Kaisho53.

Day 3 on our caching trip to Dunedin for the NZ MEGA 2012 event with Gunnie69, Kaisho53, Ozibags, fourbees and MrMeccano. Today we headed out along the Otago Peninsula through Macandrew Bay, Portobello and Harrington Point to Taiaroa Head and back through Pukehiki to Anderson Bay and then back to base in Dunedin.

Day 3 of Cache Hunting at NZ Mega 21012 with Gunnie69, Ghostgums, Mr Meccano, Ozibags and TheFourBees

Another one (bus stop that is)

This one took a bit longer but I soon located container and passed log for signing..

TNLNSL

Thanks Castlewood_Crew

THere was a theme forming with the caches along this stretch of road... Lucky we were in the groove and they were coming to hand quite quickly... This one took a fraction longer though and once Kaisho53 had found the container we spotted the unusual method of attachment... Hmm, not sure I have seen that used before...

Names in the log, it was replaced and we were off again.

Cheers Castlewood Crew.

Found while attending the mega

Reperio at 1805.

After spending the morning caching around the inner city of Dunedin with Roostaman, we headed away from the chaos of traffic and muggles for the solitude of some scenic countryside caches. Fortunately for us we found the cache quite quickly here...which meant we were on a roll with the bus stop caches.

Gratias Castlewood Crew.

NZ12. Out caching with Tealby and Dazzatron. After knocking off the tic-tac-toe series we had more time to kill before the evenings activities, so we joined the parade of cachers checking out local bus shelters. Thanks.

Albida

Find # 4513 and a total of 78 today with Marcus Vitruvius, on the 4th day of our NZ Mega trip, on the way around the Dunedin area. Another nice cache and hide and then on the way again. No it's not is it, took us a while too. TFTC Castlewood_Crew,
Roostaman.

Not just another bus stop cache - Really. Did with Mycro Man on our NZ MEGA 2012 South Island Trip

Did with CrystalFairy

Caching with Ghostgums, Mr Meccano, Gunnie69, kaisho53 and fourbees while attending the NZ Mega. Lots of searching eyes were actively engaged but Kaisho53 made the find. TFTC Castlewood Crew

Another find for Albida... A bit smaller than the rest and trickier, but less conspicuous. TFTC.

Spent a while here until some other cachers rocked up and found it quite quickly. You always get that when there are a 20 eyes on the job. Thanks for the cache.

You guys like these bus shelter caches. Took a bit longer than the other few but found it in the end.

TFTC

Found at 9:36:00 AM. In Dunedin for the Mega and seeing some of the sights in the city. Nice quick find thankfully.

Thanks Castlewood_Crew

17:13
Warmed by the Meet & Greet at the Mega, we enjoyed a leisurely days caching with Squalid. First look over and we missed it. Others arrived and the cache was located .

TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt Castlewood_Crew.

It is there, just rather smaller than most bus stop hides, and in a slightly different location. TFTC

Did we miss this bus?..... or too early for the next one?

Second bus stop without success today.

Alas, no find for me

Working on a maintenance run before the mega, replacing logs and caches as needed. And putting them back in their original placement - if they have shifted.

2nd quickie on the way out, good hide! TFTC:)

Not the usual hide, but not to hard either.

A quick find on day 2 of my numbers caching trip to Dunedin. TFTC

How did I manage to miss this on the previous visits?! Mrs UNCLE thinks I'm going blind and maybe she's right.

Found as part of a nighttime adventure in Waverley. TFTC

Reluctant to post a DNF but phoned a friend on this after I dipped out yesterday. They provided very detailed instructions on where it is so back today and still no luck.

Weekend away so Geocache time.

Everything was wet so couldn't write on it.

Not sure what is going on here, went by and checked it this afternoon and all is dry and fine. Last log is drawp. Bizzare much!

Found it but log was to damp to sign. tftc

Log was drenched so challenging to sign. Will need dried out or replaced.

9th find of 10 on the way through to Dunedin and the beginnings of a get to 1000 cache trip. A quick easy find. Log was wet and will need some drying out. TFTC Castlewood Crew

Nice

Found late this afternoon while on a wee jaunt over to Highcliff to collect the car from the mechanics. Luckily two buses passed as we were unloading Junior from the van and otherwise only a few dog walkers. TFTC

Nice quick find. TFTC.
