On our way around the coast for Easter. Looking for a suitable cache to drop off a trackable. Searched the wrong area at the start, but once we'd sorted out our compass directions it was readily found. TFTC

Today is International Earthcache Day so a plann was hatched some time ago for White Island in conjunction with Alpenmilch80. However due to weather cancellations it has now worked out (this is our fourth attempt) so now today we are finally going . Needless to say that this was going to be a very long but memorable day (left home at 3.20am, got home at 7.45pm). Our planned meet up time was 6am at the Mount for the adventure to begin.
So in the company with Sleschke we headed over for what was going to be a most memorable day out with good friends in a great and unique spot. we had the cache out and signed as SAC (our collective names).
After such a great day out at the island it was time to grab a final few on this side of Whakatane before heading back to the Mount. Sleschke was onto this one quick smart
thanks for the placement, thanks for the cache

After spending an amazing time on White Island C&D, slieschke and I moved on to get some more geocaching done before heading home. Quick find. TFTC
The area seems to be a favourite dog walking area now. Left a little car. TFTC.
Another road trip! - unfortunately a sick call from KmanNZ meant it would only be KiwimikeBOP, my son Daniel and myself today. But it turned out to be a stunner with around 28 finds - A great day to be out and about.
This was our 13th stop and the cache was found quickly and in good condition thanks to a solid hint and accurate co-ordinates. Gates always ruin the fun
Cheers lyonruge

It's amazing how much Coastlands has changed since our last visit. It's growing very fast.

On our way to Gisborne for the weekend, stopping overnight in Whakatane on the way. Hoping to clean up a few caches around Whakatane while we are at it. This was another cache on our journey eastwards.
Had no trouble here. There were two cars at GZ but no sign of any occupants so Mr S soon made the find.
Thanks lyonruge.

Way harder to find than expected. Watch out for the many wasp nests!! Cool spot. Cheers!! Swapped a black ball for a poker chip.
Quick find. Nearly muggled before putting it back but he left me alone. TFTC. Left a T. rex.
In Whakatane for a few days visiting family, borrowed their car for a spot of caching around the place. Took a bit longer to find than it should have, but I got it eventually. TFTC (1774)
On a diversion on my way for baby sitting duties - Cache exactly where it should be and all good. Hard to imagine the old motocross track - I often visit the Awakaponga track to watch the grandkids. Lots of fun TFTC

Another dot day on our calender, 1 to go to bingo out the month so went for the out of town find to give Mr Geckoh a good excuse to run home and claim back a KOM on his Strava thingee.
The cache was a nice quick find, nice hidey hole!!

New caches in Whakatane... Need those for a challenge we are working on. As it's the school holidays, a list was made of all the caches left in town... about a dozen. Next minute, five of them disappeared from the map (four archived and one disabled)... That's not good.
We've been to this area before and vaguely remember seeing motorbikes through the dunes. Yes, progress tends to ruin the experiences we had as children... Thanks for sharing a memory and TFTC.

What better way spend the last afternoon of the year than to find a few caches. No troubles locating this one.
Fun being out geocaching again.
Cool hide -- and I showed Granny'ma and Um'pa where it was
Thank you
