Clean up - decided I'm to busy to keep on top of all the caches so are leaving the good ones.. Might get around to making some clever ones soon.
Went out and checked up and replaced caches that needed to be. This cache is now ready and waiting for the next keen geocacher!
New Zealand 2103 trip for the Auckland Mega at Albany. Day 15, In Auckland Region, Northshore and Shakesphere Park. I was a bit wary of all the glass in the nearby houses but no one seemed to be watching so I had a look around, but I did not turn up the cache in the time I allowed. Thanks.

Geocaching family day out, Kids had a long play here, as we waited for an opportunity to grab cache inbetween gazes from muggles.
Geocaching with 16 newbies for Duke of Edinburgh silver exploration.
Easily found and hid under the 'bridge' to write the log in the rain.

Not a soul in sight but unfortunately not a cache either.
GZ seemed to have been recently searched, along with a lot of another areas.
Not sure if by another cacher (ones in the area today), making a some wider searches, or by a muggle seeing if they can find anything else.

1/2 day at work today so turned left instead of right and ended up at the end of the Peninsula. No-one overlooking GZ today so a nice quick find, sign and replace. Log book is a little damp but still writeable. TFTC
Hey NZB.., nice easy find thanks, only 80m from home but has taken this long to getting around to doing it. Logbook was a bit damp so it could be worthwhile your checking it as well.
Easy find, first one for a long time, getting back into caching now. Was rumbled whilst signing the log, not by a muggle but by another cacher. Thought it was a police drug bust "I'll have that please" then when he reached into his jacket for his pen I thought I was going to be tazered!!!! TFTC.
11906... Quickest find of the day... Caught OMCNZ red handed with the cache, wish they were all this easy. Had a quick chat before parting company, nice to have met you, TFTC.
My first day's caching in NZ this trip . My wife has been over here looking after her frail mother for some weeks, I thought that both of us needed some TLC. [^]
It's good to be back on Whangaparaoa Peninsular for some unfinished caching. It's also good to see some new caches [^] since Oct 2012.
A very easy find

Great views from up here. Fortunately there were no muggles around which made for an easy find. TFTC.
Luckily there were no kids about so I had no trouble in locating, signing and replacing the cache. Though I did feel a few eyes on me as there are quite a few houses overlooking the playground.
Cheers for the cache.
Did stop and wander along to GZ but one of the houses that overlooks the cache had a gentleman looking out of the window directly towards the playground. Not wanting to compromise the cache we figured it could wait until another day.
One more cache while in the area. It looked like this one hadn't been found yet but it looks like the listing had been cached in my phone from when I loaded it when the cache was first published.
Had to search about a bit but after a bit of perseverance I managed to uncover the cache. Could be a tricky one to find when any kids are about the playground!
Thanks!
