Didn't find it i think it's gone. Maybe it needs a check to make sure it's still there.
Third one of the day that I couldn't find. Did find a lid and a 20 cent coin rolled up in tape though. May have been removed.
Right in view of a window and many people in the area, we were careful to be as unobtrusive as possible when retrieving this one.
Parked up in the nearby street, gorgeous day for caching and anything else really... cache soon spotted.
I thought it was about time to visit out east to do some caches. This was the sixth for the day and as I approached the GZ I had a fair idea where the cache might be hidden. I was right but had to be a bit sneaky as there were workmen working on the building nearby.
Cheers for the cache.

Easy find once realised the right place the gps seemed to be a bit off so took longer than should have. was not covered so was in plain view recovered it best i could. TFTC
Originally logged and found whilst out with mum (keylev) but now have own account so logging all finds I was present at and helped with.
Thanks for the cache.

Whilst half the group went in the wrong direction little mr 4 shouted "I found it". Cache in hand was quickly signed and returned. Thanks so much for hiding.
Found with HeMaluDy. Now I have my own account and I'm finally catching up on caches I was present at. Sorry for the delay.

When we first got here the place was busy with a children's birthday party so we headed off to do another couple in the area and returned when there were less muggles around. A nice quick find.
Found it with Nana NZTraveller! Nice easy one for her first wall with us. TFTC
Nice quick find as cache was in clear view we have attempted to cover a bit better! 15th find of today TFTC
After initially looking in the wrong area, and my kids picking up many discarded beer cans and bottles thinking they had found it, we rechecked our position and finally found the cache
Nice, quick and easy find here thankfully! Signed, replaced and carried on my walk around Pigeon Mountain. TFTC!
Found it today. Interesting spot, most definitely not where I expected it to be. TFTC!
After our shaken confidence at our first dnf at previous cache, it was a boost to find this one fairly quickly. Tftc
Having spent the day on Waiheke, I couldn't resist one last cache before heading home.
Nice quick find, now home to a bath. TFTC

Labour Weekend/Auckland Mega 2013.
My last official cache on this excellent weekend before we head home. Took a wrong turn and stopped to get our bearings. Spotted this cache instead. A quick find but the paper is damp. My pen couldn't cope, so my handle looks more like a child's scrawl. I did the business while standing within the branches of the tree. A pedestrian passed a few metres below and was none the wiser.

No Air Scouts to bother me today, though the traffic was beginning to build just after 5pm. Logbook was a little damp, though I'm not sure why as the container was well sealed and plastic bag in place. TFTC

A quick grab today after work to keep the August streak going. No scouts about today but definitely a lot of traffic on their way home!! TFTC!
Number 6 in the 31days of geocahing, August 2013. A quick easy find during lunch break. There are quite a few more close by that'll I'll be coming back to look for during this month.

Quick grab while driving past this evening to log Day 5 of the 31 days of geocaching...
Judging by some of the other logs, I hope I got the real cache!

No problems with muggles as Samora354 and I found this cache. Thanks for the cache.
The logbook is saturated and the replacement piece of paper was very damp. Dried it out in the sun enough to be able to write on it without ripping it, but it really needs a replacement log in a ziplock bag (sorry we forgot our caching kit today).
In the area to visit the Secret Island, so throught we'd make the most of a wonderfully sunny mid-winter Sunday, and explore Pigeon Mountain. So we parked next to this cache to start with, and then headed off for an assault on the summit. TFTC.
Found cache laying on the ground. Found the holder in the hint item so replaced back where it should be.
Up in Auckland for work for a few days and with some time to spare before getting down to it, it was time to go and find a few caches. Well that's interesting. I found a container in a location indicated by the hint and the log there was indeed soaked thru. I put a new piece of paper in the plastic bag which I signed. Hope that's all OK. TFTC, Biggles.
Found it quite quickly, but the log was soaked and nothing was legible anymore so we put in a replacement log. Hopefully it will stay dry for a while but maybe CO should check it out, TFTC
All Good, There Seems to be two seperate containers up here, the old one which is broken and got muggled and replaced in the wrong place, which I have no idea where it is, and the new replaced container which was replaced 3 or so months ago. The previous finder must have found this one. This is the intended one.
Only needed one to knock today off but with a find rate of 1 in 4 and with the rain not yet begun felt another was needed. Approached from totally wrong direction but no problem and log was wet but not as bad as the only other I found today. NINO TFTC
Easy find, the log book was soaking but managed to scribble somthing down, sory i didnt have a new log book on me to replace it with, TFTC.

Quick find, logbook sodden, managed to scrawl our name onto the logsheet, many thanks.

The air cadets need a longer runway. They have is a twisty BMX course with heaps of ramps, but little room for big air. Cheers for the cache, Captain.
Out East this morning with the wonderful Mrs TWS, a nice easy one here

Found with Geco72 on a Sunday afternoon. Nice easy one after our hill climb. TFTC.
Glad to be back on the ground, and got my breath back after the last one. Found on a caching weekend with Davycrockpot. TFTC
