The cache is gone!! A guy from the house above it said he noticed a few days ago it had gone and said it was right where we were looking
I think the cache disappeared. I spent quite a long time to find it, but I didn't find it
In the area overnight on business, Quick grab this morning before heading to the airport. TFTC
Great to have a find after a couple of DNFs this afternoon. Cache damp inside, but log could still be sighed. TFTC
Nice cache 
found on a quiet evening after some floorball at the sports centre. Thank you!

I loved this one and found it to be an easy find without needing to turn on GPS as the clue was good enough. The cache was actually very visible and almost out in open so when hiding it I gave it a little more cover to prevent it being muggled.
Thanks for this great cache - I love the bling!!
The log book is nearly full, I found space a few pages back from the end.
I had had this one on my radar for a few months as I thought I could get it while my son was at Softball at Kilbirnie park but the timing never worked out.
Today I had a blissful free couple of hours and needed to be in Kilbirnie so I was very happy to get this one and the nearby Red Herring.

Clever hide. Do one around. Think they were all running around the park. Cant get over everybody in short sleeves. We are from Central Otago and are well wrapped as we think 16 C is cold.
it was hard my brother was at swimming lessons. It was awesome and fun i can't wait to find more After finding it going home to get a toy then biking there and doing my username and date i found it swapped a toy i had got from home chose a other one. It was a adventure for me!!!! I hope it is for u to!!!!!
#2233 Out and about knocking off a few more Wellington caches while the weather is playing nice. Great cache! Loved the concept and execution. Took TB for further travels. Here's a favourite point!
On a night-walk I came to this one and found it nearly open. But not anymore.
Thanks
Thanks
Had an early finish at work so popped out to see if I could find a cache for leap day. Parking was sparse so parked a wee way away. Found it after a little hunting, but realized I forgot my pen, lucky there was one there. Went back with daughter in the weekend as it was one I thought she would like. Signed log as C and L.
#1585 The tenth and last of my LEAP DAY caches. Have to wait four more years now. TFTC
Parked up down the road and made my way up the steps. Soon spotted the cache as it is quite visible. Opened it up and signed the log with the shiny. TFTC
It's the middle of the day. Parking is plentiful, so this is a quick park & grab. The cache was clearly visible from the steps when I arrived. I have tried to tuck it further back out of sight but there's not much room.
Very nicely done and enjoyed both the hide and container.. Thanks for the cache. Favourite point from us. Did with Mycro Man
Okayness and I had some spare time this afternoon after some events in the city so decided to walk from our accommodation to search for some nearby caches. There was a party going on nearby, with lots of people outside when we got here so carried on up the walkway. Came back later in the evening and all was quiet. Found it where we thought it might be. So much gold! TFTC
Loved the bit of bling Nice quick find very obvious, tried to hide it a bit more.
Parked in our motorhome right here so thought it would be rude not to do this one.
Quick find despite all the muggles but put it back closer to where it should be.

I like it. Have some time to spare this morning so what better way than a cheeky cache or two. Gorgeous day and no folks around yet. So you get a favorite for making g me smile like the good work thanks.
#1240. Found while running a lunch time errand. Pretty quiet this time of day. Cache safe and sound - however. Probably only about another dozen or so logs before this will need a new log book.
Thanks for another smilie to keep what is so far a relatively short streak. A caching day is a happy day.
Thank you

Found on a lovely evening walking the dog. This was actually my third attempt at finding this one. Not sure why I missed previously - seemed fairly obvious tonight. Very cool cache - loved the theme. TFTC.
My grandad and I found this cache while on our seventh day of our New Zealand trip. We were exploring Wellington as a day trip. After finding a cache in the nearby park, we walked over to this one and waited for muggles to come and go before making a quick find. Interesting items inside the container! Signed the log and returned before heading back to our accommodation for the night. TFTC!
Needed to grab a cache in the North Island and South Island for a challenge I saw a while ago (now I need to find it as I didn't keep a note of it!) so this one worked out nicely while on the way to the airport. Cool cache, took me longer than it should've to find it! TFTC DjaliDjinn, #8101
Woohoo gold! Love this cache, so beautiful and sparkly. We came here as a park and grab on the way to buy a notebook for our very first hide, so exciting times! Lovely to see such great themed cache. Thank you.
#1347. Thank goodness there was gold in them thar hills. After 2 hours of hunting this was the only nuggets I got for my effort tonight. One missing cache, a muggle park-up by another cache, traffic jams in Newtown and a multi too complex to finish at night. So relieved this was a nice quick find before I needed to check the hint. Really nicely themed cache as well. Thanks for placing it here. Cheers GSEL
1129 GPS batteries died so tried a few options on my way down before success. A cold wind so I am off to the room to warm up.
Found it while my brother was playing at the futsal nationals very tricky because of lots of people using the stairs
Nice little surprise getting some treasure was definitely worth the hunt !! 
Love the gold! Helps if you remember your left from right. I was initially looking at the likely candidate on the other side
Busy locale on a Saturday afternoon. Muggle management was a feature of our visit and find.
This was a straightforward find in a nifty hide hole.
Enjoyed the gold theme, thanks.
Log signed, cache then safely re-hidden, just as found.
TFTC found with team cacher Sweet P too
The Turtle strikes again!

Quickly spotted this one but UlmusLynx had the reach also found with Gilgul Well presented TFTc
Working on a couple of goals this week so took the unusual step (for me) of popping out after dinner for a bit of night caching to keep the numbers ticking over. Despite the soft breezes 
wafting through the capital the temperature was quite mild and with an absence of muggles, and abundance of parking this turned out to be a rather pleasant outing. Another well themed cache from DjaliDjinn, many thanks.
