#2663. Having a day off from working on my Manakau orchard, new geocacher potatoboi_68 from Austria and I did a little tour of Levin to pick up a few caches.An easy find.Tftc the Seagnoid.
Day 4 of our caching trip to Palmerston North area with HeMaLuDy, UncleSamNZ, Keylev, and myself, signing in as SEAC or TEAM SEAC to save logbook space. A big thanks to all the CO's for cache placement and maintenance, making this trip the success that it was.TFTC.
A small group of us from Team SEAC consisting of Keylev, Stik-A-Crane, Uncle Sam and ourselves had come down from Auckland to spend the long weekend caching in the Manawatu area. The plan was to get as many as possible. Along the way we had some great adventures, many laughs, met some interesting people and found a wide selection of caches. Signed SEAC to save space on the log. TFTC.This was day 4 of our trip and we headed South from our accommodation caching down SH 1 to Levin and back through the towns to Himatangi.A nice quick find here.
Day #4 of the Team SEAC extra long weekend little road trip for Labour Weekend.Managed to park nice and close for a quick find....yes another smile and we were on our way!Thanks for the cache.

We are on a school holiday mission around Levin, trying to see if we can crack 100 finds for the month. In total we had 19 today, with 3 DNF’s.
Quick find here.
Thanks!

I’m out and about on this fine Easter Sunday with JustLookingOO and matagouri. We headed north of Foxton to work towards some challenges, including 100 finds in April and 50 finds in one day. Having achieved the 50 finds today, we’ve headed back down south, dropping off matagouri on the way.
JLOO and I found this quite easily thanks to the hint. Thanks to theSeagnoid for another rail cache. I wonder how many there are?!

Out on a fine afternoon in Levin, looking to kick off the April Smiley Challenge. Pulled up pretty much next to GZ, but felt quite exposed searching. I had a preconceived idea of what I was looking for, and actually went several metres before realising that my idea wasn't correct. Came back to GZ, reexamined properly, and found the cache pretty quickly. All good inside. Tftc!
Day 11 on our holiday in New Zealand. Today we are in the area and surrounding area of Wellington, and then we go to Ruapehu. We also visited this tradi, found it, and signed the logbook.
***T4T$ - Many Thanks to the Seagnoid for hiding and maintaining of this cache s*** ️

We're now staying in Levin for a few nights while we slowly make our way south to Wellington to catch a ferry. This cache was quickly spotted by Mr nzk when we arrived at GZ. All good here. TFTC the Seagnoid.
Nice to have another one in this series ticked off. Not quite where & what I expected, but then it was a traditional cache and I just overthought what I expected.
On a mission to bump up found caches by CO for a challenge. Quick find on a lovely day, thanks the Seagnoid ️
Nice! My cousin found if but I swear I looked in all those gaps but thanks. TFTC
Tftc, I remember working out of this rail yard when it was still operational and had a gang and depot still here.
The rain would not give me a break. I had to wait out another squall before I could go out with my umbrella to search and find the cx. TFTC.
After getting much enjoyment out the CO's new Hutt Valley edition of this series I am finally making a start on the older Manawatu series of which I have found just one to date. It's almost weird to find such a traditional micro in a "classic" hiding location compared to the more overt new generation ones. This being the southernmost stop means it's the closest to home for me and I specifically targeted the two Levin ones today to get the ball, um, train, rolling. As the previous finder noted there was bunch of "garbage" in the cache which is now emptied (it did not come under the category of a "swap") leaving just the log. This is an oddly familiar location and I think I must have visited a business around here several times in a previous life as a contractor. I think this is going to be a long journey for me but this is where it starts. TFTC.
A year ago NZ went into a sudden Covid-19 Lockdown, so I have a few geocaches to find this month to complete the 4th loop of 366-find calendar. Today I need two and I chose this one on the way to Twig's local event. TFTC All good here.
First find after leaving twigNZ event was really easy to find due to spotting a cacher from the event finding it before us
We had the right idea but we’re in the wrong spot so it took a few mins

Hi there seaganoid just popped by the cache and noticed its been muggeld went to introduce some freinds and thought your cache is a good start as I have the photo on my phone from when I found it I can confirm for you it's not there
Nice find as we head home. Good to ge here in a Sunday with not so many muggles around.
Lucky my wife had done this one before, found cache had fallen from hiding spot and was sitting out in the open, logged and placed back where it should be
Awesome spot back in my home town over night checked a few off tonight totally got my sister inlaw hooked while out and about too welcome silverklaw27
Back to Levin for some caching. Parked up the camper van by Prouse Bush and headed off on the bike. Quick ride and grab here. Thanks for the smiley.
Out and about caching in the area today while GAR is at a dog tracking seminar with his dog. Didn't take long to make a find. Took longer than should have because I was trying to be as stealthy as I could while quite a lot of traffic came passed. Thanks for placing Seagnoid.

I'm on a short geocaching roadtrip to Taranaki, logging my finds as I go (where possible). Will expand when I get home. TFTC
