Nowhere to hide a M cache at GZ.
Disappointed, as I really wanted to have a find today to knock off a date on the calendar.

EtherLady and I are in the Hawke's Bay for a few days for our 10th wedding anniversary (with no kids!)
Searched for this one for about 20min before the tennis court filled up too much for my liking.
As mentioned by other DNF'ers, there has been a tidy here and there's not much remaining for the hint to apply to

Could not find this. There has been a lot of gardening done so possibly muggles? or we are being dozy.
A bit behind with the logging - on a 3 day caching adventure with rustynz and gorby 
Flew down from West Auckland with some Westies. Rebel98, rustynz, merlot58, Aiden29 and Mr and Mrs Jag50, we have planned a rough plan to cache until we drop more or less, for 3 whole days. 2 vehicles for us, me and rusty and rebel are in one. The others are doing their own thing.
Came to this spot while heading to Hastings, Rebel driving so me and rusty searched for this one. I found it but it was quite exposed laying in the open, still though, the contents were there and dry. So covered the cache up a little better before we departed.

We are getting close to finding lunch, and this cache was the next to be found 
A group of Westies (rebel98 and gorby) parked nearby, and then searched for the cache. Gorby called out he had found it, the log was signed, only a little damp. Thanks for the hide and bringing us here.

#9284. We visited the Farndon Park Domain in Clive on a rainy Sunday morning. Fortunately, GZ was all quiet at this time. No Highland dancing was in sight. Found after a short search. The cache was not covered, but surprisingly well camouflaged from a casual glance. It was in good condition, all nice and dry inside. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log.
Thanks for the placement and for bringing us to this site, and …

LhutiNe and I tried for this one the other night but there were too many cars about so tried again today and was more successful.
Cheers for the cache.

Had to make an early start today to deliver part of Team Woofy out here for swim training, which was going to take 2 hours, so we decided to take in some local caches whilst we waited....
Noted this one very near by so started here then walked down the river collecting others.

I covered it up after finding it without camo. Thanks for placing this cache. Love it when it is not a micro or nano!

sice jsme chvilku hledali, ale zamaskování není vůbec
nesnáším, když někdo nacpe kešku odpadem na výměnu tak, že skoro nejde zavřít

Heading to Napier to find a few caches, this one was on the way. Took a little bit to find. Nice hide. Cheers.
Pulled into here, place was all ours!
Checked a few things, then rechecked each others search areas, and seems hyjynx over looked cache, but I seen it!
No issues here, Co ords close enough with hint to make a hassle free find.
Log and cache were in good nick.
Cheers

Found with another highland flinger, grand-daughter, who has weekly lessons in same little hall. Great camo on the box! Thank you.
Came back to this one to try again. The girls had a play at the playground and then we attempted it. Definitely good camo as I had checked the area previously but not seen it the first time. Introduced a Dad and his 2 kids to geocaching so hopefully they will have fun with it over the school holidays

TFTCWe had a quick hunt around but there were kids having tennis lessons on the courts nearby so we decided we will come back and maybe try again later today on our way home
An extremely muggly spot when I first visited in the afternoon but I made a return visit at night for the nearby night trail which proved a perfect time to find this one too.

The last one for the day for us, took a while to spot. We think this deserves a fave point for the great camo job. TFTC 
On a trip with tmann421 and Just-Lookin.
Had lots of fun collecting all the caches.

Found with the kids, nearly got muggled by a Mum and son coming to play tennis, had to pretend to play balance games on the garden surrounds! Love the camo, great hide, tftc
Love the camo!! Caretaker was looking at us sideways thinking we were up to no good. Geokid wanted to take all the treasure so a tantrum later we negotiated a swap for one item!
Well done geo kid. Cleverly disguised. Kids played at park as decoys! ☆
Glad to find this one on a quiet Thursday afternoon, i know this place will get very busy. Nice job on the new camo.
Great find, cute cache, fantastic tradables inside ! Nice place for the kids to have a play too. Thanks
HIGHLAND FLING is back. This can be an extremely high muggle area, especially on Saturdays in the Winter. Please avoid looking for the cache when there are lots of muggles around. The cache is camouflaged much better, but the hiding spot hasn't changed, so please be sure to replace the cache exactly as found and cover with ground foliage if possible. Lets hope this one lasts longer than the first
Kids wanted to show their brother this cache while we were at the pools and park today but we couldn't refind it...it may be missing.
Thanks for the cache. Nice and quiet here on a Sunday afternoon to retrieve the cache
Thanks for the cache full of cool trades. I often wondered why no one had put a cache here and thought it would be a good spot. Well done. ( unfortunately some of the cammo had already come off).
FTF after circling a few times finally spotted it! Cool hide and cute container camo. Thanks for the new cache in the area picked up TB
