I'd been saving this one for New Years because I knew it would be easy. On the way to my sister's for dinner and knocked it off. FTF for 2016! That still counts, right?
 
01-Jan-16
I had saved this one for "Hello 2016" because I knew it would be an easy grab. Turned out to be a good idea because we were driving past it on our way to my sister's for a New Year's day dinner, when hubby and I both said "Oh yeah, we've got to get a cache today". A quick pullover and a false start with some gorse due to uncertain GPS, but turned out to be where I expected after all. Now giz me my souvenir! SurprisedP
 
15-Nov-15
On a roll today Wink

11-Jun-15
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 siwth on my list of grabbing caches before breakfast.
Its now 5.00am and a quick find at GZ, no muggles taking care to notice to me as they are sensible and still fast asleep. All quiet along here so weren't disturbed by passing motorists.
No view at this hour of the morning

thank you for the placement
 
20-May-15
Down in Whangarei today to collect some solved OC smiles. Grabbed this cache that I'd missed last time on my way past. Lots of traffic this morning - I thought it would have settled down by 10am. A quick easy one to get me closer to my target of reaching my 500th cache find. TFTC Smile
 
26-Apr-15
A nice park n' grab, gorgeous day for caching today here in Whangarei.
 
07-Feb-15
Day 2 of our Waitangi weekend road trip to collect a few puzzle series of caches that we have solved over the last month or so - plus any other caches that we can find on the way!

Last find of the day.

A special thank you to Riser 5 and Mini-Maxy for stopping earlier this morning and sharing their love for geocaching and the surrounding areas. It is this sort of passion that geocaching is all about! Riser 5, as for your hides, we will be back as still have 13 of the blighters to go! Solving the puzzles were supposed to be the hard bit!

Together with Silli1310 I have been on the road for almost half a year now and have been travelling in beautiful New Zealand for almost 2 months. We started on the South Island and meanwhile we arrived in the North Island and drive north to Cap Reinga. Today morning we started near Ruakaka and followed the route SH1 till Whangarei, where we made a longer stop for visiting the fampus "Hundertwasser"-House. After this stop we went further to our day goal. In order not only to sit in the car we use the possibility to search a cache every now and then and to stretch our legs a little. (Sorry for the very late log)
 
17-Jan-15
A short stop and we could find this cache.
 
05-Jan-15
Another quick find, I'm sure all the traffic didn't care what I was up to. TFTC

Had planned to go for the Wai Night cache but is wasn't really dark enough so on the way back to Onerahi I thought I could get away with trying to add some more smiles to my map with the whole family aboard, GAR drove past Almost Onerahi! but managed to stop close enough to this cache. Went out with daughter 3 and saw the cache from a bit of a distance then removed, logged and replaced as quick as we could with traffic going past probably wondering what we were doing. Thanks for adding to the smiles MiniMaxy!

Picked this one up on the way back from the night cache as we needed more caches found at night for a challenge. Sunset 8:35, found 9:52
