**OUT FOR A NICE MUNZEE / GEOCACHE MISSION TODAY**
We decided to head out and about to find some Munzees and geocaches.
This was the first cache we decided to attempt. Even though it had some DNF’s recently, we gave it a go anyway.
Looked everywhere in the hint spot, and in places nearby to no avail.
Maybe next time?
Thank you for placing the cache

Nice spot. Once again geocaching has shown me another cool place in my neighbourhood. TFTC
Great little hide although a little difficult to extract. Let’s never forget what was done by those remembered here. Greetings from Scotland
Had a good feeling where this cache was going to be after reading the hint but there were plenty of muggles about so after a quick look we decided to leave this one and headed off to find another one and get some ice creams.Luckily on our way back to the car the muggles had gone so we had another look and found it as we were expecting.Watched the jet skis and signed the log.
Being a central Aucklander, and only coming to Browns Bay for Biltong, it was nice to have a reason to explore the upper end of the village. Cool little memorial. I was disappointed to find a muggle on the bench on approach, but that turned out to be irrelevant, and the cache was soon in hand. TFTC
Out for a lovely walk in the sunshine. Could not retrieve the log unfortunately. TFTC
I was nearby with Line_Moh and we decided to look for some caches. It was a great day. Despite the high number of Muggles in the area we managed to get the cache and return it safely after signing as I MA️

Very tiny and very cool cache. Lotsa muggles and very difficult to be discreet.

A brief beach visit, haven't been here for many years. Found by CadJam, a little tricky to extricate the log. Thanks for the cache.
I’m hoping this is just really well hidden but spent a good 20 minutes dodging muggles, to no avail
Beautiful day to find this cache after a visit to the Great Grandparents who have moved into their new home across the road. What lovely views!
We were up this way today to drop off Mr. Kiwi's brother who was visiting from down-country and also to visit the great grandparents in their new retirement village. In preparation, we looked around for Geocaches to find and saw that this one was right across the road from the retirement village. Well, it would be rude to come all this way and not even attempt this cache.
So, after having lunch at a nearby bar and restaurant, we headed over to the great grandparents and had a nice visit to their lovely apartment. Whilst sitting on their balcony and admiring the view of the beach and Rangitoto channel beyond, we could see GZ from where we were sitting. It was just calling us all the time that we were there.
Soon enough we were saying goodbye and we were off to find another carpark as we were not allowed to stay at the retirement village carpark while we went to grab the cache. Once we found a park, we headed on over to GZ to search for the cache. With the help of the hint. we soon had the cache in hand and sat down nearby to sign the log. We were able to do all of this and replace the cache without the muggle only meters away noticing what we were doing as they were too busy on their mobile device.

I'm down from Paihia for the weekend to visit my kids and my Grandson. My daughter in law had a Christmas get together in this area today. I took the chance to grab this as I walked past. A quick find but some muggles came along afterwards so I had to wait to re-hide it again. A neat gun nearby, TFTC
Cool little find. Hard to get the paper out. My tip is to put the lid back on, then tap the container on its lid till until the paper pokes out.
We were going to have breakfast nearby but arrived a bit early so decided to go for a walk along the beach and look for this cache.
As it was early there were only a few muggles around so there was no need for stealth and we made a quick find.
Interesting and beautiful spot. Thanks geoSaffer.

Hi geoSaffer
This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).
I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.
Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.
Please note, that if a cache is archived due to lack of owner maintenance, the cache is unable to be unarchived.

Agree with previous experienced cacher that this is no longer here. Needs to be checked.
Came here with Mum today (SethRaven) we hunted high and low and couldn't find this one . . . . . then Mum re read the logs and saw that a very experienced cacher has logged it as missing . . . . . we gave up and moved on.
Nope, had a good look but nothing. Sounds like only half a cache here at best. Suggest owner check...
Peaceful spot today after the service yesterday. Memorial decorated beautifully. TFTC
An easy find, but like the last few posts, only found the lid. Beautiful peaceful day in Browns Bay. Thank you to the soldiers who gave their lives.
Found the container but no log. Have picture of cache if required by CO. Needs new log & lid. TFTC
Normally we hate nanos but this was such a glorious day at a beach we rarely frequent. Had to patiently wait for the family of muggles who camped on the fenceline.
I I’d and therefore no log hm... oh wait there it is... not fairing berry well looks like it spent a couple of nights out in the rain.
Found this and no screw top but we still managed to sign ok. Had to wait while some muggles took umpteen photos. TB visit TFTC
Had to come back a second time to find this as was too many muggles before, was an impromptu visit however and forgot to bring a pen. Loved the cache and the hide. TFTC
No muggles since the night and rain scared them off! So had time to look for it! Definitely had to get in there to find the cache! Good spot! Quick find too
I missed it first go but geomikesh wasn't afraid to stick his hands into the unknown! Definitely nano haha
Found it! Very sneaky little spot! Had to check it a few times before we finally found the cache! Lots of fun!
Nice find - bit suspicious to be forraging around this area when getting close to Anzac Day, but careful looking meant a good find. Thank you
