Out on an afternoon's cyclocache ride. It's getting a bit late and I wonder if I will get back to Tahunanui in time to watch the evening news. Made a quick find. TFTC paddle chick.
I love finding geocaches while on the E bike with JDScout. We're biking around Stoke, Monaco and Tahunanui. Thanks for hiding this cache paddle chick I appreciate it.
On a Week road trip to Nelson,Buller and Greymouth. lots of driving and walking, plus biking, lots of great caches many thank to all the CO"s - Bitsprayer

Day 3 of my Nelson trip, along with NZ_B, YetiNZ and Mr-Mcgoo. This is something we planned a while back and have very much been looking forward to 
During our time here, all found caches were signed as NMTY (regardless of whether 2, 3 or all 4 of us hadn't found it previously), or with individual names for Challenge Caches according to whomever was claiming the find.It's now evening and after another full day of caching we were definitely in the mood for a good meal, so filled our boots at Lone Star in the CBD. Of course we were offered the dessert menu, but decided that what went best after a day of caching and a good meal...was more caches! It was a beautifully calm night, so why not?If I'm being honest, with the lure of another 50+ caches day for those working their way through the qualifying for the DGSc Challenge, we were on a bit of a numbers grab by now.This was a straightforward find at GZ, and encountering no issues with cache or log, everything was replaced exactly as found.Thanks for setting this one up.

Our stomachs are happy after a lovely dinner so it is back out for an evening caching session -its 10:28 and we are still going. Those in the team who need 50 caches found in a day for the DGSc challenge arent far away from that number.In Nelson with TwigNZ, YetiNZ, Mr-Mcgoo for a few days of caching and meeting up with other cachers from Nelson. All logs signed as NMTY and apologies for the late log.Kia ora rawa atu for the cache paddle chick.
Some time ago a group of us from Wellington decided that what we should do is come down to the Nelson region for a long weekend of Geocaching. So we did. With minimal specific agendas, and lots of unfound caches in the area, the goal for this four day break is exploring, having fun, and finding geocaches. Here is one we found.
This was day three, and another fifty plus day that had us focusing around Nelson town, starting at the northern end and working our way south.
The log was signed as NuMpTY (or NMTY) for NZ_B, Mr-Mcgoo, TwigNZ, & YetiNZ

Thanks to paddle chick for placing and maintaining this cache. I enjoy each and every cache I find, and it is only with CO's like this placing them out in the world that this wonderful game continues.
[DGSc-Bulk] tagging to help me generate a list for GC30AD8 - DGSc Challenge.

Snuck out the house to clock up a few more caches. Found this one quickly by just using the GPS on my handy-dandy phone. Looked down..ooohhh a rock…lift that…”THERE IT IS!!!”. Log nice & dry, signed & re-placed. TFTC.
When I was here before, I had a really good lock on another place. Today, I was taken to another place and found the cache after a protracted search. TFTC.
Find number 6 for us today on a ride with our wee people, and another day added to our streak. Pre-geocaching, streaking meant something totally different to us.... And now we're at a whopping total of 300 finds. It puts into perspective some of huge tallies we see. TFTC.
Thanks to Nanzie for noticing that the area had been tidied by council recently and cache was gone. She has replaced it
Quick find this afternoon while out on my bike. Enjoying a midwinter break in Nelson. Time for some caching. Thanks for placing and maintaining.
Visited McCashin's since we drink a lot of Rochdale Crisp Apple Cider, so thought I grab this nearby cache. Studied my phone while awaiting a passing muggle, and then did a thorough search, but failed to come up with the goods.
EtherLady and I flew to the Mainland this afternoon for a wedding at Founders Park tomorrow (and then we’re flying back *south* to the Capital on Sunday).
My favourite non-alcoholic ginger beer is by Stōke, and because you can’t get it in the North Island any more, we decided to have dinner at the brewery.
We had a delicious meal (and bought a case of GB to somehow sneak onto the plane), and as we were getting into the car @WonderfulWifey asked if there was a geocache nearby. As it happens, yes there is! Only 77m away
This was a quick find, and I soon saw in the log that my partner in crime, [@the Seagnoid](http://coord.info/PR5DMHT) found this 4 months ago with his partner in crime, @TaybeeDragon.
Thanks for the hide

My third visit here, with the first two ending in frustration by not finding cache and standing in dog crap! I must be somewhat geowiser these days because i found right away, and learnt to watch my footing also. Leaving smiling and clean footed, thanks very much for the cache.
