Bravo! It's a Nano (BOP) Tauranga, North Island, New Zealand
By nzkites on 27-Sep-13. Waypoint GC4P43P

As this appears to have gone missing again, we think it’s done it’s dash. Archiving.

Couldnt find. Searched a couple of seats but think it's been taken maybe?

Disabling until we can check on this.

Couldn't find it either. I thought I had it but turned out it was just part of the seat that I'd accidentally unscrewed, oops.

Came in evening with no muggles around at all...After looking behind both chairs for a long time could not find the nano..is it still there?
Will come back again, but wasnt a easy find that i thought it would be.

Boy found it after chopping back a burger.

Had no pen on me will return with my pen another time

Tricksy much!

Quick find while out for coffee. High muggle area but easy enough to be inconspicuous. Thanks for the hide

Mr. Kiwi was in Tauranga on a business trip just around the corner from this cache, so it would have been very rude to have gone all that way and not find it. So, after spending the night and before checking out for the day, he went for a walk to attempt some caches. This one was top on his list. It was an easy find in the end, but there was some trouble with the pen. It wasn't the usual geo-pen, just the back-up, so it had been a while since it had been used. At first, it was a no go, but once a scrap piece of paper was found, a few scribbles and the pen kicked into life. One log signed, replaced into its receptacle and put back in its place.

Found it!!

pretty easy, couple of minutes

TFTC! By the way the loggbook has "only" 7 spaces left.

Bit of a time trying to find this out without being noticed

Not too many muggles about on a Sunday

Quick easy find

We got here after crossing the railway bridge and finding a cache on our way. We arrived in the evening when there were not many muggles...until one came out of a nearby business for a smoko break! We twiddled our thumbs until she returned to her workplace, and after looking at the hint - and changing where we were sitting - we found the cache! TFTC

Took a little bit of looking but got it in the end

Now NZ has moved to Alert Level 2, Geocaching is allowed but it’s up to each one of us to keep the rest of us safe.

Let's not turn Caching into Catching COVID-19

These are the most important things that you can remember and do:

COVID-19 is still out there. Play it safe.

Keep your distance from other people in public.

If you’re sick, stay home. Don’t. find this cache.

If you have symptoms of cold or flu get advice about being tested.

Wash your hands. Wash your hands. Wash your hands.

Sneeze and cough into your elbow, Sanitise your hands before looking for this cache if possible.

Log online each cache found and keep a record of anyone you meet.

Stay Happy and Safe while caching.

Disabling this one until the lockdown is over. Please stay home and keep your family and the country safe.

Yes a good clue is essential here!
As I rounded the corner I could see there was a muggle sitting where I wanted to be, but fortunately he moved on as I approached so the coast was clear for the old relax and arm stretch manoeuvre. It was quickly in hand.
Thanks for putting this here for me to find.

I have a 3 month sabbatical mostly traveling around the planet. My goal is to find and log 1000 caches. New Zealand is my 4th station traveling from south Christchurch to north Auckland, my first visit here, its far away. This is my sabbatical-cache #901.

Missed out on the cruise but found the cache!!

Was scrambling around for a little until we read the hint. The high muggle area had us feeling exposed so the hint was good.

Cool little find right in the middle of everthing

I'm just a German backpacker who went out to catch some caches. Not too difficult but nice one tho. The hardest task is probably to get the paper roll back in the tin:)

On a holiday in NZ. Short visit in Tauranga, and before dinner we decided to search for this one. Easy find, and not too many muggles around Thanks for the cache!

Found it nice and easy find! Save meat! Brad and Nikita

Not Bravo.... Tried but no luck.

We planned a day out to Tauranga for a look around. It turned out to be sunny and pleanant; just right for a day of caching about!

Our fist in town with the hint taking the pain out of an obvious search even though it was pretty quiet today! Thanks nzkites

With the explicit hint, how could we fail – despite the coordinates being slightly out!

After failing to find 2 on our way here it was good to make a quick find here. TFTC

Went here with my mum and had a great time

Found by geoson and I while searching for something sweet to eat after dinner. A tiny cache, but easily found exactly where it was meant to be. Signed sealed and returned without being sprung. Tftc MattyH from Tassie

Looked around and under the seat and couldn't see anything

Found it after 15 min.

Nice hide. This took a lot longer than anticipated but I was glad for the hint. Visiting from Hawaii. First trip to New Zealand. Walked here from the cruise ship. Oh my...such a nice city with lots of restaurants and shops. I wish I had more time. Thank you nzkites for placing and maintaining this cache for all to find.

Wow! They really do roll the sidewalks in after 7 PM, don't they? Found with no issues!

First ever find! Super exciting, big thanks!

Here from cruise ship lovely town TYFC

We had a very rare child free weekend so we booked a motel and spent the weekend exploring and caching in the area. We decided to have breakfast out and this cache was just around the corner so we had to have a wee look. Happy to make a quick find here.

It is indeed a very public area!
Only one we managed to find in a Tauranga due to the limited amount of available whilst visiting an a cruise ship. TFTC

Quick find thanks to a good hint.
TFTC!

Beautiful sunny sunday out on adventure. Fairly easy to find.

Great clue. Area clear of muggles hiding from the rain. TFTC

Nice quick find. It’s a damp day meaning the muggles have stayed away!

Thanks

Found it using some stealth! TFTC!!

My first in Tauranga! TFTC!

Nice easy find once we'd moved to the second of the possible seats.

Submitted via Garmin Live Geocaching

Found it. All good.

Nice easy little find

Quick and easy thanks to the hint! No pen on us so took a pic! How many times have we walked past this and never known!!!

Signed the new log. Tftc

New cache in place and waiting for the next finder.

Cache replaced.

Check out this today and looks like it's missing

Thanks i found box yoho

Looks like it needs the CO to check and replace if necessary.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Kiwiscot competing in SLS Oceans National event being held at the Mount. Decided on a little nearby sightseeing. Unfortunately this appears to be MIA.

No good today

Dnf

Cruising on CMV Columbus from UK and today a visit to the Bay of Plenty.
Fairly quiet here today.
Thank you for providing this cache for the enjoyment of other Geocachers,

I had a look for this one this morning but couldn't find it.
I am not going to log it as a DNF as I only had my phone with me so I'll come back sometime when I have my GPS.
This is just a note so if the CO is in the area they might want to check it is still there but I will be back.
Cheers Flippaduck

This was a good one

I walked to Mt Maunganui from my cruise boat. Up and over. Then around. Then I walked to Tauranga. I’m very sore now since I had a big blister from earlier in my holidays. Over 30000 steps. Too many. I found some caches along the way. Thanks for this hide.

Quick find on a sunny Sunday! TFTC

Tftc. Visiting from the cruise ship. Lovely place

Cool little nano, thanks for the hide. Found it on my way home from the New Year celebrations at the Strand

First one in NZ! No. 294.

Quick find. TFTC!

Nice hide just time it right to make the grab thanks

Thanks for the sneaky wee hide found with abcdf4

We checked on this today and replaced the log. If you bump your head trying to find it, it's in the wrong place - please replace it according to the hint (not underneath).

We will check on this and replace the log asap.

See what was meant about hitting your head. Log in very bad condition. First one. Joined yesterday. Good laughs finding it.

GZ luckily was vacant so a comfortable find. Plenty of action metres away though .
Thanks

Cheers mate, me and the kids are having fun finding these

Had dinner and drinks at my place quick find tonight even after a few beers

Tried for this unsuccessfully a few months ago but another opportunity today to look and this time spotted it immediately.
TFTC

School holiday trip to Auckland/Coromandel with the family. After a couple nights at Hot Water beach time for a few days in and around Tauranga. Staying in Matua...Time for an explore. Saturday morning so all quiet at GZ for a quick find and sign. Love the Hairy Maclary sculpture(s) on the waterfront!

New to this.
good learning experience

Brought a brand new cacher to GZ and watched the retrieval. Log doesn't fit very well, and so is looking rather ragged. I'm not sure how well it'll hold up. Otherwise all is well. Thank you!

Nice easy find. No muggles around. Log not in good condition.

Fun little cache. Took some trackables for a visit.

Had to keep returning to this one a someone had placed themselves on the seat for some time.
