I'm down from Paihia for the Dunedin Mega event. We did a lot of caching around there. Then we went down to Invercargill for three days before driving to Middlemarch for the old Donovan cache. Today is our last geocaching day as we head back to Christchurch. I'm spending the weekend there with my cousin before flying home on Sunday. We did a bit of a back track here for a few caches. I picked this up as we were heading right past it for my buddy to avenge a dnf on the Shrek series. A fast find, thanks for the cache Smile

We took nothing and left nothing . Thank you for this cache .

An impromptu shopping trip to Palmerston seen several caches plotted on the main road. Unbeknown to the copilot (me) a detour was thrown into the trip and aside from some car sickness lol this one got missed. Return journey seen the dry cache picked up. So noice to find larger caches in the wilds that aren't leaky pillcans or rusty mint tins. Popped in some swag and a gel pac. Had a pencil on hand but there was one in place as well; another surprise that was too. TFTC Heafudd

We are heading home from Palmerston early but time for this series. Found No Evil here today. Tagged this one. Cheers

Its Anzac Day 25 April and we have an event at Palmerston. So its a day in Palmerston today with a walk up Puketau in the mix.

Its another awesome geoventure to Dunedin, with The Seagnoid, Zara, Toby, Jack, Jill and William all along for the trip. Had a wonderful 10 days exploring Dunedin. It was great catching up with local cachers at several events we attended. Lots of walking and driving, with the odd cycle and wave ride to jazz things up. Thanks to all the COs that made this trip a wonderful success. Even managed to bag some lab caches along with wherigos, earth caches and events, with the usual mix taking us to some amazing places..
 
25-Apr-19
Nice idea for a series. I must admit though, on seeing the road name, that I thought of Cornelius, Dr Zaius, Zira, and so on. Maybe even add the Librarian to the mix.
Anyway, we decided to head down this road on the way back to Dunedin.

Taybeedragon and I have an eleven day Easter weekend in Dunedin. Although, let's face it, given that we are from Blenheim and Picton that means two of those days was spent in travelling. In that time we grabbed a smidge over three hundred caches. Not bad, considering the amount of time spent way out on the back roads, on bicycles or canoeing on the water. A few virtuals, larges, letterboxes, earths, wherigos, and even ten lab caches in the haul. An awesome weekend!
 
16-Mar-19
A planned geocaching trip with specific targets in mind.
1: The final 2 caches to fill my D/T grid
2: The last 5 caches available (all in the South Island) to meet the NZ Jasmer challenge GC4R9Z6
3: Get as many caches as possible in a day (Solo)
I had no timetable and only a vague route (Christchurch - Dunedin- Invercargill). So after 20 days of sleeping in my tent/car I arrived home having traveled 4500km and visited some interesting places. Met some great people. I had found over 650 caches. That was a lot of park. Jump out out. Find cache sign and return. Then on to the next. All this done by myself. Also attended an event and had 2 FTF
Mission 1 and 2 were achieved and I had a best day of 153 caches. All this done by myself.
Day 13 Dunedin to Herbert Forest 25 caches. All targets have been met.
Thinking of Christchurch for the events of yesterday. Thank you for the placement

I lived less than an hour away for many years and today was the first time coming to this area. Beautiful views for a large part of this road.
 
03-Apr-18
A quick find on journey south from Oamaru to Invercargill. I enjoy driving over the northern motorway, so was disappointed to turn off towards the sea after Waikouaiti. Karitane though, didn't disappoint, a lovely wee seaside town, which i had more time to explore. As it turned out, by the time we came over Apes road an hour or so later, we only missed 2km of SH1 and i got to enjoy the motorway after all.
 
03-Feb-18
As well as the cache being smaller than I expected, it wasn't where I thought it would be; one hint object out according to my GPSr. I wasn't delayed for long though and I was soon completing the paperwork. Thanks, Heafudd, for an enjoyable series of caches.
 
22-Jan-18
Nice quick park and grab
 
09-Dec-17
I’m here for a week from Australia doing the great Southern scenic Trail. So far I have spent time in Queenstown, Te Anau, Bluff, Stuart Island Invercargill and Dunedin. Met the lovely locals in Airbnb’s. Today I’m heading to Timaru grabbing some caches along the way. Gorgeous scenery along the drive, thanks for this cache. I found a toothbrush holder not a sistema and it was waterlogged and the log book was also wet as the snap lock bag was ripped so I have added a fresh logbook and snaplock but I think a better water tight container is needed.

20-Oct-17

I drove up from Dunedin to to Oamaru today on my way to attend the weekend's Geofest Event. I ventured off the main highway a number of times to explore the country byways. There was of course the odd cache to find along the way as well. All in all a very pleasant trip with some interesting places and great views along the way. Cheers and TFTC

Notebook a bit wet. I'd found the cache and had just returned to the car when 3 carloads of people pulled up. I decided to sit there an see what they were up to. All these kid piled out of the car, and with their mums / grand parents went for a walk up the road. No idea why...I'm on a 5 day caching trip in the south island. Have a few aims - right now its to up a few specific caches that I need to complete my grid for a challenge - and find some interesting caches on the way Smile 1800km later I can say I've accomplished my aim!

Begins our holiday in NZ in Christchurch, we came from Italy to find our son who lives there for two years.
Today we decided on a multi-day tour, after stopping at Omarama today continues to Dunedin, scenic road we will stop on the lakes that meet
Here we are in Dunedin, waits here for historical cache us that in Italy there are no thanks for posing and maintenance
Dunedin is a special city for geocaching
And after the historic hunting the last two days we decide today for a quiet day
Greetings from Italy
Eccoci finalmente in niuziland e dai e dai ci siamo veramente, appena arrivati capiamo che sarà dura, cena di qua invito di la, andiamo a vedere questo e quest'altro.
Prosegue il nostro tour di più giorni, dopo aver fatto tappa a Omarama e aver visto il Lago Tekapo, lago Pukaki, oggi faremo tappa a Dunedin passando per una strada molto panoramica, altri laghi
Sulla strada ci fermeremo alla ricerca di alcune cache
Eccoci a Dunedin, qui ci aspettano cache storiche che in Italia non ci sono, grazie per aver posato e manutenzione
Dunedin è una città particolare per il geocaching
E dopo la caccia storica degli ultimi due giorni oggi decidiamo per una giornata tranquilla
