No joy for us here today. Spent some time searching in the obvious places plus others but still no joy. Gps couldn't lock on any closer than 10m.
We did widen our search area as we have found the co-ordinates here in New Plymouth are not that accurate, but maybe we should have searched even further away.
thanks- nice cache. And lead us to an absolutely beautiful garden tucked at eh end of Weymouth street i might have missed otherwise. Thanks!
GPS was a little off. Found spot couldn't find cache for a while. I would go as far as saying it was double camo'd. Knew exactly what it was when I did see it.
Could do with a bigger log for a cache this size.

followed instructions & "walked this wey".
Had to zig & then zag a few times before finally locating GZ, but got there easily enough with the good clue. No muggles to trouble us today. TFTC shellbellz

gps readings a little off on this one had to turn on the geocaching brain, soon in hand TFTC
I had breakfast at Joe's Garage, then came over here for the cache. Coords seemed to be quite a bit off, but the hint helps a lot. TFTC.
I was lucky there were no muggles around and it was easy parking. So I ascended the step. and saw the likely spot where I had a cursory look, as the GPS said 8m away. But then it got confused and so did I. so I went by GC instinct. And ah. Yes. There it was, all safe and sound.. yes the log book is a bit out of keeping with the cache hide. But still works, so all OK here. thank you for the ache and another smiley face.
Had to park a little further away from work today but it meant quick retreival for a couple of caches.
2nd of the day and a quick find. I have a similar cache in HK so knew what I was looking for. TFTC.
2nd attempt and a half hour later... finally got my GC goggles on and success!!! TFTC
On 3 day holiday from Cambridge. Girls at the Salvation Army family store so boys escaped to find this cache. Took a few minutes but it was obvious really!

I had a good idea of what I was looking for, but even so it took me two goes to find it. I stopped looking at the compass and started looking at the area and managed to get that lovely a-ha! moment and the subsequent warm glow of success. Managed to squeeze our name on to the log and tucked the container back in its spot. Thanks for the placement.
having just finished a reno job I was on there was time for a look at this one.Found easily by using the clue. SL TFTC
The way I walked was down the Huatoki walk way and finally reached the target my gps want me to go on for a further 16 meters thank goodness I didn't TFTC
Wandered around for a bit before finding it. Registered 12 metres away at GZ. tftc
A quick lunchtime dash and yay FTF with 56wolf. Co-ord were a bit out, but I suspected what we were looking for. Good for my one a day campaign. Mission Accomplished TFTC! See what you meant by the log sheet. hard to get into!

After seeing this published at lunch I headed out after a little bite to eat hoping to make it 4 ftfs in a row. However it was not meant to be stf by 10mins. TFTC.
It's a bit of an inconvenience working in Bell Block and a new cache pops up in town during the day. Of course by the time one fights one's way in through the evening rush half-hour it's dusk by the time I arrive here. After trying all the other small hints and one larger hint (that someone else had also tried) I had to let my fingers do the looking & shortly after had the cache in hand. Difficult to write the log in the dark! but all good in the end. GPS wanted me to go west another 23m but I don't do grass of any sort! TFTC girls
