Stopped here for some wine tasting with the family. I think there must be some donkeys nearby judging by the deposits on the grass, though I didnt see any unfortunately.Cache found easily, many thanks.
Greetings from Finland. Third cache of this morning on our trip to Wellington. TFTC

Log signed and replaced as found.Thanks for the traditional cache boxhill #7,843
Beautiful day for caching out and about enjoying the Martinborough environs. All good here with this cache, do signed and replaced as found.
Roadtripping in NZ from Finland. Today we had a wine tasting day in Martinborough and searched a couple of caches along the way and this was one of them. Quick and easy find, the road was pretty busy so had to watch for muggles. TFTC!
It's December, and to help me achieve one of my Geocaching goals I need to log 300+ caches this month, which means an average of ten a day. I started off well, but had a glitch in the middle which has left me behind on my target. As I leave home on a road trip to Hawkes Bay to see a band play, and then return to Wellington to see the same band play again for New Years Eve, I have only 108 left to find to meet my target. I have a list of caches to look for, and this was one of them. Cache found as expected, safe and well. --- Thanks to boxhill for placing and maintaining this cache. I enjoy each and every cache I find, and it is only with Geocachers like this creating them and placing them out in the world that this wonderful game continues.

Went on a long and angsty stride about Martinborough on a very hot day to get this one. All good here. Wish I could have stayed longer! Tftc.
Nice quick find while on a bike ride while at a motorhome rally at nearby Luna Estate.

Flowerydaze and I decided to take a trip over the Wairarapa mainly to do the Math Series. So here we are on a nice spring day picking up the caches which we had solved and some which were trads. Thanks for placing the cache here boxhill
Talla64 and I had made a plan to come over to the Wairarapa for a couple of days in search of caches. The main aim was the Maths Journey but we also picked up any others that were on our route. A quick find, thanks for the cache boxhill - we've done a number of the "I'll keep you posted" caches now. We never know what to expect!
Log 20 whoever traded the Starbuck cup you my hero perfect system worked well come collect a pokemon on me #vin
I decided this morning to head out to Martinborough to collect a cache that I needed for a challenge. Miss 18 asked to come for the road trip so off we went.
Driving down SH53 from Featherston we were stopped at the intersection of Bidwills Cutting Rd heading into Martinborough. The Ruamahunga River is in flood due to the amount of rain we have had recently, so we were directed back to the road out to Kahutara, and then on to Pirinoa to loop back to Martinborough.
After some stops for caches along the back roads, and devouring a yummy lunch at the square, it was time to get serious with these Martinborough caches!
Travelling in a loop around the outskirts of town collecting some trads. This was a quick find in the first spot checked. TFTC

Day 1 Cache 30 of my mad mission to the Wairarapa for the 100-10-7 Challenge. Wet and rainy day today but cachers must carry on. The lovely Ethness has joined me as driver for the day. I am always happy to add a boxhill cache to the list. So great to add this to the list today. TFTC Boxhill.

Found on a day visit to Martinborough - the town was really humming on this sunny Easter Sunday. All good here, thanks boxhill.
Pretty cool spot and lots of cool items in side but I don’t know if we could take them so I didn’t and people should do more in Martinborough
Found, signed and replaced in the nick of time as a couple out strolling were about to arrive. They had no idea. Don't you just love it when a good plan comes together! Cache is all good. TFTC

#1764. I am in Martinborough to do the Patuna Chasm adventure with a group of Wellington friends. Had a coffee at The Neighbourhood Café, then had time to pick up some caches before lunch. This was the second of the four finds, nice easy one in the Posted series. This one is a long way from home!

We had an amazing day yesterday walking up and around the Putangirua Pinnacles and then down to Cape Palliser, so today we had a quieter day driving round to pick up a few caches and then moseying on to Featherston, picking up a few caches on the way. TFTC
A nice quick find thanks.
Ms_KR and I are off on a wee tour of the North Island. It was a great weather most of today, with the threatened rain starting mid afternoon. Mostly just showers though. Today we cruised around the Wairarapa which was cool.
Thanks to all CO's for publishing and maintaining their caches. Cheers.

Headed over the hill today for a long weekend in south Wairarapa. Found just a handful of caches including this one. A quick find after popping over to Martinborough for a coffee. #3991. TFTC.
On a mission today to knock off as many 'back country' Skindo caches before (or after) they get archived, plus any others on the journey. Today's 7-hour mission took in Gladstone, Admiral Hill, Hinakura, Martinborough and Ahiaruhe and netted 18 finds and 13 DNFs.
Nicely tucked away. Simple find near the end of a long caching day in the back blocks. TFTC.
