Hunted high & low for this one but to no avail. Oh well you can't find them all! Will have to revisit when passing through again. Took the time to look at the intersting park nearby with the GIant Penny Fathing and a very impressive BBQ setup.
Had no luck in locating this GC as we walked around the harbour, lovely day for the walk
Another DNF. Unable to find this one. Lots of muggles parked in area so couldn't do thorough search. good spot though.
Sat down on ramp with back to cars and had a quick furtive search without success. Lots of shags sunning themselves all along the harbourside.
Found on a lovely sunny afternoon in Oamaru. This one needs a logsheet sometime soon - there was room to sign but it was a bit of a mess. Thanks Bitsprayer.
Found easily, unfortunately we couldn't get the log out. It had been jammed in and had got wet so just keep disintegrating on us. Didn't have a spare log to put in either.

Found 2:16pm , find # 1957
Currently travelling through the South Island of New Zealand.
Today we drove from Mt Cook village to Dunedin, through one of the most cache rich country areas I've seen.
Wish we had more time to get bigger numbers, but had to just choose random caches in places where we wouldn't lose too much time.
This was find number 13 for the day.
A cheeky little hide, just sittingh there with the barest of cover.
Made it a bit better covered, but will still be easy for the next finder.
Thanks Bitsprayer.

Stopping in town for lunch and petrol, time for a walk around and a couple of caches after spending time with other homeschooling families for the weekend. I thought it was going to be a hard find but it a second look in the most likely spot the cache was uncovered. I hope son taking photos was enough of a distraction as when we got up and walked away I realised there was a person on an exercise bike upstairs in the building over looking where we had been.
Thanks for the cache.

Easy find, perhaps needs to be painted to blend in a little more? Log paper wet as previous logs have indicated. Nice walk, TFTC.
Before i go shopping i went to the harbour.
Here i search and find also some caches.
This was one of it.
Logbock is wet and need to be changed.

Being overlooked by exercising muggle in building across the road. No problem with the find though.
90 of 270 for a day stretching from Danseys to Thompson's Track.

Going to claim this one even though I didn't have a pen at the time to sign it. I had a witness though...my 2yr old geoson was there.

Nice. Sat rump on ramp to sign. Not too many muggles in close vicinity. The little Bairdys had a fabulous time at the nearby play area. TFTC SL
Even though disabled, had a quick look to no avail. Did with Mycro Man on our NZ MEGA 2012 South Island Trip
Accompanied by someone who has previously found it who said it has been moved or removed.
3 others there in the space of an hour also could not find it.

I found this one quite a while ago and had a look for it today with a school caching group and it seems to be missing. Certainly not where I remember it being anyway. Might need checking.
TFTC Lovley beach and lots of muggles so we had to pretend that the cache wasa crustation 
That was cool. TFTC. i was gunna put a daisy chain in BUT they wouldnt fit Anyways, nice cache
Anyways, nice cache Slept in the cache mobile for the night pretty much right beside this cache, so a nice early morning easy find. TFTC. Cheers Bo
My GPS never really likes around here for some reason, so took a little too long to find in the rain.
Muggles all over the place today, the warm weather was bringing them out! Tied my shoelace a couple of times and this cache was easily retrieved. TFTC
A few hundred meters further on and here we are at the boat ramp. So were muggles.
Pointing at make-believe objects and other deceptions allowed Dakotacat to recover the cache with great finesse. Hurrah for the believers !!

What a great morning at the harbour. The water was nice and calm and the roads deserted at this hour.
Thanks
