A quick easy find on this pathway. Cache is getting a bit on the rusty side but still in good condition. Rainy day today so couldn't tell if the log was wet or just me. TFTC.
Great cycle ride on a cracker day. Time for a lunch stop in Onerahi. We are on a motorhome trip to Northland from Blenheim. Always good to get out and about. Quick find. TFTC
We are very behind on our logs sorry but trying to catch up now. Bit of a long story involving a glass of wine and my laptop keyboard and not for the first time...we logged our DNFs for this trip but are only just catching up our finds now.
Waiting to catch up with caching buddies while they did a puzzle we hadn't solved so popped in here to pick this one up and see if it was still there after more than a year without being found - I guess all of the locals have found it already.
Found fairly quickly and then we had a bit of a go getting into the container as it was rusted shut (not being found for a year will do that). Had my Leatherman with me and got in there, and signed in and replaced as found.
Thanks for the cache - the container is a bit rusty so perhaps a change is due at some point but other than that, present and correct.

Two cute but noisy dogs accompanied us while we approached GZ. Found cache after checking a couple of objects. Tin was half full of water but surprisingly the paper dry. TFTC
Glad the rain departed today, so made it a bit drier to look for this cache. Mind you, even after a few hours, bamboo leaves still hold plenty of water...!!! Nice quick find with the clue and kept the 2017 streak going. TFTC
Just one single find for the day before the GIFF event in a few miniutes? Yes! Officially making this the slowest day of geocaching every this time around 
Found at 14:33 - #6696

Collecting some of Whangarei urban caches today as I head back down the line tomorrow. First one of the day and an easy find. TFTC
Nice one! another good find on an infrequent, but very enjoyable trip this far north.

As we walked down the walkway a neighbour had his eyes on us so we had to bust the ninja moves and swipe by the cache. Easy find and signed around the corner then placed back.
I headed up North for the long weekend and after a day out on the harbour, I then drove around Onerahi/Riverside finding a few caches that I hadn't previously done, in between passing showers. Took a wander down the path and soon spotted the cache at GZ. TFTC!

#11102. I managed to trip (but not fall) over an uneven slab: event T1.5 caches are not without risk! Quick find at GZ. TFTC.
Spent the morning finding a few caches around Onerahi then headed to Kamo for another go at the wherigo we failed to find the other day. We were keen to keep as much as possible in the shade on another warm and muggy Northland day.
No one using the lane today otherwise this would have been a tough one. Watch out for the uneven paving, StreetWalker nearly tripped up on a particularly uneven section. Quick find. TFTC.

Onerahi seems to be full of these shortcuts and quite worthy of them with the twisty confusing layout of streets. Thank goodness for GPS! & TFTC
& TFTCFound GPS is a tad glitchy though so even though it dinged, it was a bit far away. Might be my phone though
#1805 Found on a little wander with my niece and nephew and their dog. Got rained on a little but the 'treasure hunting' was enough to keep our spirits high. Miss 8 was very excited to find this one and managed to reach it by herself. TFTC!
After having been away for work for the past week this is my second to last day away so thought I should make the most of it and grab a few caches. As this was closest to my hotel it was tenth on my list of grabbing caches before breakfast.
heading off down a side street this one was soon in hand and on to the next. Nice hidden but managed a nice and quick find
The locals are still asleep
thank you for the placement

Great little hide. Grabbed quickly then pretended to tie my shoe to sign it when someone came out of nearby house
Couldn't find this one last time. The decoy put me off. It was a quick easy find today. Off to get my OC smiles and my 500th find. TFTC
My GPS tells me I found this cache 2 years ago but failed to log it - or I tried to log it and the computer lost the log. Anyway here it is, found.
A last quick cache on my way to the Airport.
Children were playing in the park but I was discrete and, hopefully, not noticed.

We took the Walk to Clotworthy with Yeetrees and the cache was soon revealed, TFTC.
Just started looking for geocaches today and discovered one just 130 meters from home. good clues and the GPS got us to within about 2 meters. Thanks for the cache! 
Walked very fast as limited time waiting for a friend to ring for a pick up. Quick sign and off .
.Really getting a good knowledge of Onerahi's streets and shortcuts.
Quick find and got spotted by the C.O. as we headed to the walkway.TFTC.

Another find on a wet Saturday after the International Caching Day event. Not quite a first to find at this one - thanks for the effort you put into hiding these caches Nick.
Our 3rd joint FTF in this 'race' - walked in very carefully... Had to carefully negotiate the find which was a wee bit tricky - well we looked/felt a few places before the 'eureka' moment... TFTCR5
Went in from the wrong end so a quick walk in the rain on a very slippery path.....great care was taken as we didn't want any more broken bones !!!! Did take a wee while to find but Flowernz spotted it it for our 3rd joint FTF today. TFTC
