TFTC great spot to hide might need somthing to drag out with somthing if hands are to big
Grabbing the last few caches at the end of a 3 week block training course up here from Palmy. Im heading back tomorrow and had a wee bit more spare time. After a couple dnfs this avo from puzzles I thought I had in the bag () I needed a nice quick sure find to make me feel betterCache in good conditionMihi ki a koe mo te keteroki #175
Set out today for a goal of 1000 caches. Headed off from Rotorua detouring around seeing where we end up, appreciate the cache!
On a mission with Reschedule to top off an epic caching weekend by both hitting the 1000 cache mark. At the same time we took the opportunity to knock out some caches in the Waikato.
A nice easy find here for day 90 of my streak, on my way home from Mystery Creek this evening (morning). TFTC!
Back in Hamilton on a wet evening after a couple of days in Wellington. Picking up pizza for dinner on the way home, but first a small diversion to pick up a cache for the day. All quiet at GZ, found in the first place I looked. Log dry. Signed, and returned as found. Tftc!
I have to admit, I'm a fan of 'gnomes' too, so I was happy to head out in dodgy weather to go on a gnome hunt.The heavens opened up just as I had gnomeo in my sights, which obviously proved to be the perfect distraction as he was easily nabbed.Then it was a soggy walk home....Thanks for setting this up
After being stuck inside thanks to the rain all day we wanted a park and grab while out grabbing dinner tonight. After a DNF and seeing lots of recent DNFs and a needs maintenance on options 2 and 3, we were feeling a bit disappointed. Then we checked out this one, and a log today had us feeling a lot more hopeful. A nice and quick find by Mrs JTP2001 before I'd even reached GZ. Tftc
Having spent the morning at the Gardens we made our round back to where we are staying and grabbed a couple of caches on the way. Here we parked up close and a quick find followed.Log signed and all returned TFTCTim and Viv - ddm
Dropping some green waste off and this little character pointed me in the right direction. Quick easy find. Thanks 11hpg11#4898Logged using Cachly.
As the description says quick drive by would have been looking for less than 10 seconds before it jumped out TFTC
The fact it was a rainy Saturday meant the area was very quiet, and we were able to park right by the cache and soon had it in hand. TFTC

This was a super quick find, and we were fortunate there were no muggles about to wonder what we were up to. It was nice to be able to turn this frown upside down. TFTC

Poor herbert. His damaged hat is still lying on the ground. He still has a smile and a twinkle in his eye though. Gnomes hold a special place in my heart since my son was nicknamed nome by his boss years ago. Thankyou for the cache.
A lovely sunny day for a change, so we decided to visit the Hamilton Gardens to do a spot of caching, and afterwards went on to find a few more.
Reasonably quiet here when we visited,No problem making the find with the hint, thanks. Cute sign.

Night drive to Hamilton. Finding few caches as well. This one was a straightforward find with the help of the hint. Cache is all good here. TFTC.
Me and 1 friend found it but the other friend did want to get out of his car but he still logged it. That geocacher should be banned.
I wish I could say it was a team effort. However, one of my fellow geocachers stayed in the car and did not contribute at all to the find. Be careful of these kinds of people. TFTC
A slow trip up to Auckland for the Mega next weekend. Stayed the night at the Classics Museum on Rifle Range road. Got up early for a bike ride before it gets too hot. Collecting some local caches. No problems finding this one. Cache/Log all fine. Thanks for the smiley.
Nice easy find, unfortunately the cache is full of water (pic attached). We wrote on new piece of paper and popped it into a zip lock in the wet zip lock bag. TFTC!
Cache soaked. Tipped out water but will need dealing with. Replaced lower down to afford better protection from the elements.
Rainy day. But don't mind doing geocaching in the wet. However hubby wasn't going to get out of the car today. Quite happy to stay dry and watch. Lol. Tftc
This one was an awesome hide! What a
Great idea! Love stop and grab. Looks like I’m following in another geocache hunters footsteps! TFTC
