Travelling from New Plymouth to Taumaranui, via Wanganui - and picking up caches along the way Smile Tomorrow we're going Jetboating! Whoop whoop! Evryone else was travelling directly there, but as I had several hours work to do in Hawera I decided to come this way instead. What I didn't consider was just how far it was! Still it was a fun journey, and cool to see smiley faces all the way down the coast.

Really really dark along this road this evening! And these things are so so so so so so so so so hard to search even in normal light. Hope the owners of the property didn't mind me being out front with my torch! Must have looked weird!

Travelling around the world with Dartmoor Deliverer helping her celebrate having taking early retirement!

NB Dont forget our Devon UK Mega 2017 GC6JZNY this August in the beautiful East Devon area of our county. UK Megas are over one week full of events and geocaching - a wonderful way to enjoy our county!

During our vacation in New Zealand we also did some geocaching. We already found geocaches placed on the year 2000. Now we are heading to Whanganui and there we also did some caches. We found some and also didn't found some. But we had a lot of fun, and that is what geocaching ment to be.



supasi hartelijk dank voor het leggen en onderhouden van deze cache.

Groetjes,

Only just finished logging the 100+ caches from the weekend and am shattered. But now to start on the ones we desperately grabbed last Tuesday to qualify for the Skindo 250 finds in February! Thank god for working part-time. Coerced hubby to come and put the pedal to the floor. I should be at home getting ready for going to Wellington tomorrow for work. Never enough time! Lol, hahahahahahahaha - hubby spotted this quickly and went for the grab. He didn't oink or baa but he sure cockadoodledoolded as it was sitting under a very nasty electric wire that sure bit him. Well zapped. So PLEASE make sure you son't send the kids to get this one - it bites. TFTC. I will give it a favourite for giving me some entertainment lol.

I know that it's really a pity that I have not enough time to visit Taranaki area in this holiday because I've heard a lot of good things about this area. But I'll work very hard on visiting beautyfull NZ again, because I really fell in love with it. But one of my personel targets was to find at least one geocache in every of the nine district of North Island. So I drove from Whanagui westwards and right behind the border I was glad to find this little one.

Thanks a lot for the cache.

This cache was one of the many caches we found on our 6 day campervan journey from Tauranga to Lower Hutt via Waihi, Cambridge, New Plymouth and along the west coast to Wanganui and back to the Hutt. A mighty and enjoyable journey which took us to many great and iconic parts of the north island and of course some great geocaches. Many thanks to the many CO's for the great cache placements and for bringing us to so many new places. Sorry about the generic log but 200 plus to log. TFTC
