Decided to grab this one on the way home from work and having driven along this road plenty I knew exactly where to stop (though having the gps handy also helped). Started raining as soon as I got out of the car but I was able to find and replace the cache before getting too saturated. Nice quick find - TFTC

Amazing view, did walk a little up the driveway to take a picture, but the batteries had already run out grrrrr

Like the other cachers I parked really close to the hide, then it was a frantic retrieval before any cars/muggles came by. Thanks for the view and the hide Big Grin

Parked right beside this one, which was handy as it was about then that the skies decided to open and the rain came down. TFTC

A trip into town for mrs capperz so a couple of trips in and around the city. Some yee-ha at Piha and being domain man at the Domain were the side orders for today and ended up at Mission Bay for fish and chips aside the beach. 10 caches today, all crackers and all appreciated. Some new stuff seen, as always and an appreciation of the beauty of someone elses play ground.
Started off here for a nice easy P n G

Out this way today for a few caches after checking out the Oratia Farmers Market. Took a few moments to find as it had fallen from its perch and was found on the ground. Signed log and hid back, TFTC! Big Grin

#722. Was heading back out west so stopped to pick up this cache. It was a quick find and sign in first place looked. But the return was a lot more problematic. The tin is no Jedi Warrior. Took ages to get it to stick after dropping it a few times and waiting for cars to stream past. Must have looked odd to a few cars that swept around the corner catching me with my arm stuck up a chevron! Anyway it finally stayed put... I hope. TFTC

Heading out to Piha on a drizzly morning we decided to do this one and then call it quits until we could determine what the weather was doing. Went shopping and then did some chores. Then off to Piha. A busy spot this but we had it spotted quite quickly.

Pulled over on the way to whatipu...hoping some new caches may have sprung up.. ..oh loom there is one in 200m! Thanks so much... (we are slowly reaching our cache population of auckland rural roads our selfs) standing at gz light rain started and when I turned around there was a bonus... In the air behind; )

It turned out that I managed to park right beside the correct chevron. Yay! TFTC
 
28-Feb-15
Boy, there is so much traffic today! I gave several of the signs a going over, never spotted what I was hoping to see, I'll come back at night. Several of the locals were coming and going too which put me off.

Found quick enough. Didnt want to linger too long here with the speed of some of the passing cars. Lucky theres a bit of road shoulder to stand on. Cache is still holding on well.

Thanks KW 12

Went out for a few hours today with yorkshirekiwi83 to clean up a few more Westie caches. Parked across the road and made a quick find of the cache. TFTC!
 
08-Feb-15
Vistra and I spent part of the day today gathering caches or elements of caches to help solve others later. Decided this time that the West had gathered a few up again and it was time to clear some of them.

I actually found this on the floor, so moved it where I think it should have been, you may need stronger magnets to hold this in place. But quick find. TFTC

We were driving towards Westgate doing some cache maintenance when we got the notification for this cache. Carried on driving, and when we reached GZ FMZ was already searching for the Mint tin on a Chevron. We reached the one our GPS was pointing to just as FMZ reached in and pulled out the tin. Great timing! Joint Waitangi Day FTF Big GrinBig Grin. TFTC!

Just mucking around at home when a few new caches popped up so decided I'd duck out and see about a couple of FTFs maybe. Arrived here and all was quiet but my phone was a bit indecisive at first about where the cache would be. Eventually reached in and grabbed it just as kiwicouple arrived for a joint {FTF}.
