This seems to have disappeared so we will see if we can track down another one
Looked all around but couldn't see it, both sides of the road, nothing there that I could see.
Just on the off chance that I'd break my 3 DNF streak I tried this one. Nope, add a 4th DNF to my talley. It really is time to go home now! Cheers
My first of the lollies series . . . M&Ms are definitely my favorite. Used to be plain, but now the peanut M&Ms are my preference. However, I discovered mint M&Ms a few years back, for a while only released during Christmas time, but now available year-round. Then, when I was over in California not long ago I bought a bag of white chocolate peppermint M&Ms. Oh boy they are heavenly!!!!! My new all-time fav! But what else beats Reeses's Peanut Butter Cups?!?!?!?! Thanks for the fun cache!
Almost gave up looking for cache, my GPS still said it was 9m away when we found it. Cute cache 
28/08/2014 2:21 pm Find #3664 This took a little longer to find than expected but found it was on this warm day. The hint is no longer relevant....think lower. I wasn't carrying any tools to help match it to the hint. Maybe the next finder could help out? Thanks!
Mmm, "Emms", as my daughter used to say, when she was very little! Found in the dark with the torch.
Quick find on way to airport. Was lying on the ground but in good nick. Have enjoyed the series- still need to do the new ones. Thanks for them all
Quick find on the way to the airport to return to the Waikato. Cache appeared to have moved from how it was originally placed, but was in good condition. Have only done a couple of the series so far, but will work my way through them. TFTC

A quick find, while watching my son's plane land. Then off to pick him up. I'm definitely a fan of the Lolly Scramble series. My finds were spread over many months - I was rationing them to ensure my current streak would be kept alive. I hate to think how much fuel I used, often driving out to get just one and leaving the others for another day. Despite that I did get one or two first to finds. TFTC and the series.

Ah, a nice quick find! Thanks for that. 
Also, thanks for filling in another dot day. TFTC
Also, thanks for filling in another dot day. TFTCSuper hide. Looked in all the wrong places, turned around and there it was!! A fav from us.
We needed to say goodbye to some TEF grandparents at the airport today, so we were bundled up and out the door pretty early for a young family. Before we left we loaded up the wagon with snacks for the day, plenty of jackets, fesh batteries and pocket queries designed for TEF Jnr MKI who is two and a half (or half past two, as he likes to put it).
After a visit to the airport ( which almost ended up costing me double after we spent too long in the airport car park post paying for run little card, trying to find a geocache on the GPS.... Thankfully the nice parking man manually opened the gate or we'd have had to pay another $5) we headed over here to have a look for this cache.
Jnr MKI was out in the frosty grass in no time, and we made our way directly for a likely hiding spot.
He needed a bit of help from dad when it came to retrieval, bUt was really interested in the cache container.
It took a bit of persuading for him to let it go so that it could be signed. After using his tongue to stop the propeller we returned the cache (sorry about the goobies) and headed up the road to grab a few more caches with him.

Having failed to find the challenge cache nearby visited this cache with 2wombles to make my find for the day. Thankfully this one was easily found!
Thanks!
Thanks!
In the area so made a find. Only one plane took off while looking for a nighttime find. Thanks for the hide.
I stopped off as I headed to round up all the escapees from Orana Park (see the Zoo Break Wherigo) and then go for a bike ride around McLeans Forest.. Was sprung by muggles driving into the road as I was about to replace the cache - bet they wondered why my cachemobile was parked where it was.
I dunno whether they were the local residents or not. I'm all up to date now with all the Lolly Scrambled caches. Thanks M&Ms.

Thanks M&Ms.We didn't race off with everyone on Sunday,as we went elsewhere.A car followed us into this Road,could he be another Cacher? But no he carried on,when he was outa sight we pounced to find another Super Duper Container.Thanks for all the fun that we have had with these Lolly Themed Caches.TFTH
Out and about on a warm evenings caching adventure with TheWanglers. In the area heading homewards so stopped off for a quick find and sign.....Nice one. Cheers.
Was out and about with Team_Gaters on an evening raid to grab some newish caches. What a wonderfully warm evening with the Nor'wester keeping us warm and so many stars. On the loop and had to grab this one before we started to head home for the evening. Nice quick find at GZ and another inventive cache container in the theme of the Lolly trail. Good work.
Thanks for the cache.

After dropping off the Kids at school and wifie off at work, I ventured forth to fibd this one that I didn't get yesterday afternoon after the m&m event. Parked next to the GZ and a quick find was had. Love the container. Tftc
It was a bit of a race from the other MandMCachers as we were in contention for the FTF. We took different routes and La Vista and I arrived just behind Chch Falcon plus Cachlet. Others were just behind us! Chch Falcon made the grab and declared a joint FTF. Loved the container. Slow today and didnt realize the significance of the name until back at the event. Cheers MandMCachers!

After having been narrowly beaten for the FTF at the other new release my daughter and I made a hasty trip via the fast way to get here first. L4TB and LaVista pulled up close behind and provided the pen for a joint FTF. Thanks M&M's I have not done many of this series but will make an afternoon of it soon.
Definitely a fan..... have so many hours of enjoyment out of it that continues with each log. Usually have fantastic company each time I venture out for lollies too. Still have a couple to find.
Love the cache, a car passing by nearly stopped to ask what we were doing i think, lucky we had signed and returned and was just on the way to the car
This was the second new M&M cache. Chch Falcon did a quick spin to have cache in hand pronto but I had a pen ready for him to sign the new log. As L4TB was my driver, this was a team FTF effort. Sweet as ! Still have many more lollies on the trail to collect. Thanks for the fun !
