A long weekend and we were heading to Karitane for the night. On our journey we stopped off for a few quick caches in the area. Took a couple of attempts to have a decent search as a few cars passed. Nice new log book. Tftc
 
19-Mar-21
Found the cache on the opposite side to where the map on my app said it should be. Container in a badly broken condition. I have replaced the cache and hidden it on the side that the map says it is. The new container is bigger than the previous container but I didn’t have anything smaller
 
03-Jan-21
After a couple of very wet days in Dunedin, StreetWalkerNZ and I woke to a glimpse of blue sky and sun Smile but with more rain predicted, we started early to make the most of the good weather on our drive north to Moeraki. We even had time to do a wee tiki tour around Palmerston and environs.
Initially, we looked on the wrong side of the road. Once on the "right" side, we found in the cache in pieces, so reassembled and left where we found it. TFTC.

Found it but it is very slimy inside the cache. A bit of algal bloom in there [XX(].
It is quite green and unfortunately it is all over the logbook. It needs a bit of a clean and a replaced log I think. Thanks Smile

I drove up from Dunedin to to Oamaru today on my way to attend the weekend's Geofest Event. I ventured off the main highway a number of times to explore the country byways. There was of course the odd cache to find along the way as well. All in all a very pleasant trip with some interesting places and great views along the way. Cheers and TFTC

I just needed one for the day and a drive to a place that just deserved one seemed a perfect match! Lovely spot, and surprisingly busy! Had to wait out a few cars coming past, pretending to enjoy the sunset - not too much pretending required, the sunset was amazing, although it got even better after I left gz to drive back. TFTC!!

TFTC - a fantastic afternoon in East Otago caching. Very wet cache log. Couldn't record log due to damp.
 
I knew exactly where this was going to be using Goggle maps street view prior to getting down there for the find.
Cache and notebook is extremely wet, but alas I had no new pages to place in cache. managed to scribble name on a blank page
Cheers and thanx for the cache
