Managed to find a tiny spot on log sheet midway along roll. Regretting I don't carry Nano logsheets - all used up replacing other caches! This will need a CO visit.

Thanks for another smilie. Quick find.

Did you know that planning has started for a Mega Event in Wellington in 2018? Check out the details on the [Wellington Event NZ (WENZ) Website](https://sites.google.com/site/wenzgeo2018/home) or visit the event's page on [FaceBook](https://www.facebook.com/groups/590545297801072/)

Thanks to the Cache Owner who has gone to the trouble of creating this cache, determining the coordinates and then averaging them to make sure they are accurate, placing the cache and registering it online for our enjoyment. Without Cache Owners doing their bit, there wouldn't be a fun hobby that we all love - so again a big THANK YOU. For our bit, all we need to do is find and log the cache that was carefully placed for our personal enjoyment. As we log it we should consider that the Cache Owner also needs to maintain it - when the log sheet fills up, they must replace it. When the container becomes full of water, they need to empty it. When the container is broken, they need to repair it. When it goes missing they need to find or replace it. Well..... the great news is we can do our bit too - make sure your log doesn't take an entire page - just a name and date. If full of water, empty and dry the cache as best as possible. Be careful when handling the cache and make sure you replace it where you found it. If it has a bag, seal it. Just remember - the Cache Owner showed respect to you by placing the cache - please respect them and fellow cachers that follow you by being careful with the cache. And if you have a spare log sheet and the cache you are at needs one, please leave it behind. Finally, if the cache does need maintenance, please let the Cache Owner know - you can log a Maintenance Log or you can drop a line to the Cache Owner. Above all - have fun and remember the Geocaching Code.

Parked car opposite plenty of traffic and workers. Found cache ok, had trouble finding place to sign then spent ages rolling back into container. TFTC

Road very busy of an afternoon, Had to take a seat for a while, workers just across the road keeping an eye on us. but made a quick grab. Signed and returned.

A cache near our nephew's place of work. We had just driven by it and were heading to a previous DNF when this appeared on the GPS with a parking spot in front. Found it the 4th place looked - as Mrs SoBad thought it would be whereever she started. The log was full so we found a spot where someone had logged sideways and added our name there.
Thanks.
 
13-Apr-17
Easy to find
Thanks. Log is full.

Back in the country for a couple of days visiting friends and family,So of course Im out doing some caching while im here, My Nephew wanted to go find a cache so this was just down the road found after a short search, signed log TFTC
 
25-Mar-17
TFTC log is full, nice little hide
 
09-Mar-17
It seemed pretty clear on arrival where this was likely to be hidden. Upon investigating how the target object was constructed I found the cache in the first place I looked. I wasn't expecting a nano though because there's plenty of room for a micro. I have no idea if my sig was actually legible on the tiny log which kind of makes it pointless doing that. There's still a couple of spaces on the log but it would be good idea to replace it soon so as not to frustrate the next few cachers. TFTC.

Found this one while a short walk from the holiday park.
 
17-Jan-17

27-Oct-16
Was able to grab today as someone was lying here the other day I tried to bag. Log sheet full but I dated it all the same.
Great day at Te Papa Gallipoli exhabition. ...moving
 
15-Oct-16
A nice easy find. Light winds and a little sunshine made for a pleasant jaunt. A pair of black swans escorted a small flotilla of cygnets along the water as I was completing the paperwork. There's no much room so I signed as GBOTT. The cache wasn't where the hint indicated it should be so I replaced it in line with the hint.

On an afternoon cycle ride from Melling on the River Trail, beside the Waiwhetu Stream to Te Whiti Park, up the Riser, along the Pylon Track to the Wainui Road down the Hill and via Bell Road and Whies Line West onto the cycle Track and home. Bright sunshine, little wind, ya can't beat Wellington on a good day. TFTC

My car was at Total Automotive Services, just up the road from here.

Decided to have a look for this one while we were in the area.

Thank you

GC no. 10 in New Zealand, the last on North Island!

First about the statistics: New personal records: Farthest from home. 100 meters more... wooow! Wink 0.0005 % improved

Today we had to awake early because we will take the ferry to the South Island. But there is a GC only some hundred meters away. I have some minutes... let's go.

Hmm... 4 possibilities. And when did the cache appear? You know! At No. 5. Because I tried it first in the correct one - but didn't finger deep enough.

So I was able to log at 5:40 p.m. My earliest foundtime in the southern hemisphere. Then a little bit in hurry this log wrapping challenge but it was ok and I reached my family in time. 

Nicht jede Hatz nach einem Schatz ist für die Katz.

Found after a thorough search of several likely sites. Eventually got the little fellow which was just sitting there. Too cold for any muggles. TFTC
 
17-Jun-16
Working just around the corner installing a new machine.

OK have to confess had been here yesterday to have lunch and as it was such a lovely day and right across the rod from the place I got my food I thought I would sit here and enjoy the fresh air and sunshine. While I was eating I thought I would do a check on local caches!

WELLLLLLLLL GZ 1.4 meters away......

Made the quick find and DOH!!!!!!!!!!!! NO PEN!!!!!

So had to replace and I came here today again for lunch ARMED with a pen!

The weather was a little windier and chilly but I still diligently had my lunch here and signed the log.

TFTC

Geocaching lesson #1 ALWAYS ALWAYS carry a pen!

Parked across the road then Grandie Son, SIL and geodog headed for GZ. Took a seat and the first place I tried I felt the cache. Took a bit of getting out with my decent size mitts but it was soon in hand, log signed and returned as found. Thanks for the placement CachingInNZ.

Awesome 2nd micro ever
 
13-Mar-16
In Wellington for the weekend and it would be rude not to collect a few caches. Staying nearby an his was pretty much behind our room. Lucky we didn't jump the fence as we would have found out we were on the wrong side of the river. Cheers For the cache.

Wow our first micro, cool TFTC!

Fairly quick find after checking the possibilities. Too bad the picknick table is coming apart...

TFTC!

This stream and the area alongside it has changed so much since I used to work at Seaview. Cache was a quick find, not much passing traffic fortunately (I came early on a Saturday morning). Tftc.
 
20-Dec-15
Car broken, so get to other transport, the trusty treddly. A quick find, Cheers.

The holiday season at last! Off to Auckland to see my folks. Caching all the way.

Thanks to all the CO's for their hides.

Tftc. Nice quick find while on this part of the hutt. Dodged a few fitness niggles but seems I looked casual enough

#2083 Out for an early morning bike ride to pick up a few caches. Used this spot as an excuse to rest the legs for a couple of minutes and found cache between muggles. TFTC!
 
20-Oct-15
Been wanting to do this one for a while but it always seems so busy here. Today I had to walk the dogs from work to the groomers as all of the vehicles were out. Had an idea of where the cache was but missed it on the way there. Didn't want to be late to the groomer so carried on and had a better look on the way back.
 
23-Aug-15
I found this one while out and about with Mermaid Man. Thanks for the cache.
 
23-Aug-15
This wasn't an instant find for us by any means. However after a few minutes of intense searching we had the cache in hand. Thanks very much for the cache.
 
18-Aug-15
#1222. Out for a spot of night-caching. Decided with the weather looking a bit dodgy to stick to park and grabs tonight. Well I searched pretty much everywhere for this one. I knew exactly what I was looking for but just couldn't spot the hide without a torch. Eventually shone the torch and saw the spot. Cache in hand soon after. Signed the log. Still dry. Returned as found. Thanks for placing in this spot. Nice place to eat your lunch I expect but quiet as tonight.
 
09-Aug-15
Surprisingly pleasant alongside the stream on a cold winter's afternoon, this cache isn't in too much danger of getting muggled.

Icy rain put the kibosh on our plans for a geocaching circuit up the nearby hill - it really was cold outside today! We had hoped the route might be sheltered from the worst of the weather, so had optimistically driven to the start near the Tunnel anyway, but we wimped out of doing any serious walking when the skies opened definitively. Fortunately there was this little drive-by in the vicinity! It didn't take long to find Smile TFTC with Cassie 2010

Cheers lovely evening

Glad we found it when we did as the Southerly was brutal here today. Not a day for a picnic despite the sunshine! TFTC

That's so cool Wink tftc

Find No.1 for today out with my girl Sian. Quick find once there was a break in the cars going past and muggles walking dogs. TFTC
 
25-May-15
Tricky wee blighter. Spent some considerable time looking in the dark. Much glee from Mrs Orsome4some who finally made the find. Worth a favourite from her! TFTC
 
10-May-15
Headed down to check the cache out and found it on the ground. Have re-placed it and it's good to go.
 
05-May-15
Gone?
 
05-May-15
Looks like this has gone missing.

Disabling this while we go to check it out and get a new cache container if required.
Will aim to be back up and running within the next 2 weeks.
 
06-Apr-15
Ditto for me too, was out early Easter Monday to grab a few handy caches - but this was not to be one of them. Spent a while looking in, up, under & around but DNF.
 
05-Apr-15
Not found. After about 10 mins of me looking around a fellow cacher who I was out with today (who has found this one previously) assisted me and both had no luck on finding this - this could possibly be missing......

Thank you! Took a little while for us new at this, this was our first cache! Second clue helped a lot
 
26-Jan-15
A quick easy find. My entry in the very small log is probably illegible.

Years ago I would have been thrilled to find Yogi's favourite place but these days I prefer healthy lunches (-;
 
25-Jan-15
great hiding spot
 
24-Jan-15
Quick find thanks
 
23-Jan-15
Apparently, Frode thinks like Yogi Bear, because it was only a matter of seconds, before he grabbed the little "Nano" Wink.

Thanks for the cache.
 
19-Jan-15
Tftc. Almost gave up but re read clues. Cache needs maintenence. Only 1 more spot to sign

10 seconds into finding this, Selesi accidently flicked it into the grass. Another 10 minutes later, it was re-found! Phew. TFTC
 
15-Nov-14
This took much longer than it shoud have after fumble fingers flicked cache into grass (Note to self ...add magnet to geocaching bag) TFTC

Have to admit that I stumbled across this one for the find. Wasn't really on the ball tonight!! TFTC
