On the buses: 8017 (Wellington) Lower Hutt, North Island, New Zealand
By zboy wonder on 06-Oct-14. Waypoint GC5EA7Y

I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note.

Couldn’t find cache, possibly muggled..

Disabling until I can check it out

Unfortunately this stop has now been removed so no luck.

The last time I had a decent full day’s caching run it was way back on Anzac Day, so it is pretty fitting that’s next is on Armistice Day. I decided to head back to Upper Hutt and Lower Hutt region as even though I attended the recent mega and enjoyed it, I didn’t really enjoy the actual caching as it was more like queuing and waiting your turn for the log book and in some cases not even seeing the container and that isn’t my type of caching.

An early morning start to make the most of what promises to be a great sunny day. Another quick find for this series. TFTC

Quick find before strolling downtown.
Tftc!

Quick find! While we were signing the log, a local lady walked by and asked what bus we were waiting for because buses no longer stop at this stop apparently. Haha tftc

Day 2 of an epic WENZ MEGA weekend. We were tiki touring around Pet-one (as our GPS had us in fits of giggles over) taking things a little easier today. We decided to pull over and turn this one into a smilie. Out and about with Viv_L, hayleyfcy and michaelteacher TFTC

We found On the buses: 8017 (Wellington) on our Wedding Anniversary getaway to the WENZ Mega.

Easy find on a Sunday morning

Thanks zboy wonder for placing this cache and being a part of out geocaching adventure

Headed down here for the last lab cache I needed to get the answer for and once that was done decided one or two more caches on my way back to my accommodation would be ok. This one was a nice easy find. TFTC

Down for the MEGA in Upper Hutt, Wellington, with a group, SethRaven, NZTravellers, HeMaLuDy, caching around the area.

Logs individually signed as "stik-a-crane" or "SAC" if space/time was short .
Time for the official photo celebrating the MEGA..

..thought the events were well managed considering a good sized turn out to the MEGA.

Thanks to all the CO"s for maintaining their caches ready for the onslaught......

TFTC.

In the area for the MEGA this weekend. Found with NZTravellers and stik-a-crane on a night mission. Mr NZT had found this a couple of years ago but couldn't remember exactly where it was. We thought we knew better and started looking without a final look at this GPS as we got out of the car, so started looking on the bus stop across the road. Something didn't add up, so a check of the GPS pointed us in the right direction. Now the hide location was soon spotted for a quick find. No problems or muggles to contend with. TFTC.

After meeting a friend for a catch up at a nearby cafe decided to go and find some caches. I parked not to far. No muggles around which was good. Thank you

Nicely hidden in a public place. TFTC.

Team BOP have descended upon the Wellington region for the 2018 WENZ MEGA. We have a lot of caches to get through so there isn’t a lot of down time but it's great to meet the locals, CO’s and fellow cachers. My online logs are largely cut’n’pasted because my memory has started to blur many of my finds together so apologies for that. We’ve signed logs as ‘TeamBOP’ or individually depending on log space and time. Lastly a big Thank You to the Team - TNXPro, Davidsonclan, McJandals, NZFlossy, FapandGap & Squirrel Nutcase and to all the CO’s that made this a memorable trip

It's finally Mega weekend!
Found while travelling with TeamBOP to the Mega event in Wellington.
Thanks for bringing me here.

In Wellington for the WENZ 2018 . Thanks for the hide.

Attending the Wellington MEGA, great to visit here from the sunny Bay of Plenty, I have created a template in Cachly for the weekend, so Please excuse generic logs in advance. A great place to visit and another smiley to boot-yay!! Many Thanks to all you cache owners for the placements. Day one for me and collecting a few on the way down. Cheers

Found a few of these bus stop caches now. Even all the way up in Palmerston North. I always wonder what would happen if a bus pulled up at the same time as someone is searching! TFTC.

Nice quick find.

Nice park and grab

Thanks

Replaced the cache, it’s good to go again

Up from the deep South for a work reunion.
Could not find any magnetic eclipse.
Perhaps it's gone for a ride..

Disabling until I can check it out

I looked everywhere but no luck. There weren't any muggles in sight so I had plenty of time to look. I think this one has been stolen or at least interfered with.

I think this ones been muggled. No tins to be found anywhere on the seat. Unless this is a trickier hide than the others in the series it has gone walk about.

Not sure how I could have missed it, but I did. Looked everywhere. No luck.

It was good

found while out hunting with Scouts

Easy find

Easy peasy

Arrived just after the bus had departed Easy find, thanks for another zboy wonder

Noone waiting for the bus today so an easy find. TFTC

Quick find after originally looking on the wrong side of the road. Tftc

Nice easy find as no muggles about. Notice the newer one across the street. Tftc

After I visited the first cache of New Zealand I continued my trip around Wellington.

It was raining all day - so perfect to go for some caches.

Quite a cold day but at one point I rented a bike to go for spotting Pinguin - unfortunately without success. Anyway, it was a nice but short trip to New Zealand .

Thank you very much for the nice and good maintained caches and all the best from Switzerland

Good one!

Weather atrocious, on way to Italian concert. TFTC

#355. Winter has come to town today, with a vengeance! The slip on Ngauranga Gorge was a disruption. We'd booked dinner at an Italian restaurant tonight, so this cache was a suitable night one to keep my streak going.

Consecutive caching day #55.

Easy

Easy find.

2nd cache in Petone. Easy find one. TFTC

Easy find. TFTC

Parked in side street and walked to cache, easy find and visible if you know what to look for.

Thanks for placing the cache. I had to fill in a bit time in Petone today, so went for a wee walk.

Nice and easy. No one was there but if you pick the right side it's easy to be stealthy! Tftc log book almost full.

The bus had just left - perfect timing! Tftc.

Nice quick find while in the area for golf. Cache all good. TFTC

TFTC

Muggle free, so the cache was easy to find. TFTC

A nice quick find by mini me and a nice dry log. Thank you very much we are thoroughly enjoying this bus stop series.

Another nice quick find without any hassle from muggles or buses.

Had to brave a horrible flight in from Hamilton today, to spend the day at WelTec, so decided to reward myself with a nearby cache.

Quickly snaffled while passing.
TFTC

Easy find and another one of the series. Thanks CO for the cache.

Just happened to be driving past here latish in the evening which seemed like a good time to find a cache like this. Quick find in the expected place. Returned cache just before a muggle arrived. Phew. TFTC.

Nice, easy grab.

The #pros back in action. Mission completed!

Found straight away nice easy find

Visiting New Zealand for the first time from Australia, with Apty who was born in Nelson.

Doing this in the lead up to my 500th find. Have done quite a number of bus stop finds back home, some much harder than others. This one was a piece of cake
