By ZWilde1 on 29-Apr-17. Waypoint GC74VJD

First time coming here and it was a cool experience. It was late at night so couldn't stay to read a book. Luckily my dad was here to get cache container out because there was many spiders and I'm deathly afraid of them, lol. tftc

Found!

Easy find. Needs some maintenance, as it's missing paper, and a pen. No swaps inside.

#7 I played in this shelter when I was a kid. A good selection of books too.

Thanks for the snack.

Found with my grandson

Our second find for the day in the area. Love this old bus stop!

Log full

First one in NZ on our holiday. TFTC

Super easy and fun! Great for beginners

Great, no AMAZING!!!!

Tftc

Nice quick find - great little library! TFTC

Yay love this spot fun and risky stand with all the books!

Found it! Cool little library

I found it and it wasnt that hard but it was empty

Just passing....have logged it years ago!Just saying it is very well stocked with books here at present Any keen readers, please visit!!!!!Every kind of book you could imagine....and , of course, a cache....

Thankyou, great spot

TFTC. Found this with my nephew. Had a great time.

Good

Great spot, very cool but stop my first one ever!!! Found it with my 2 friends and it was a really fun experience

A crazy wet day to be out caching. But I wanted some more finds for this calendar date, and Mrs TW had kindly offered to accompany me. This was a very sensible cache to do on such a wet day. It didn't take long to find the hide, and it was an interesting place to check out. The best location for this sort of thing that I have come across. Thanks for showing us.

This was a great cache to do on a rotten weather day, nice and sheltered and lots to look at. No problem in locating the cache and it gave us a nice dry spot to figure out our next move. TFTC

Second one I've found today. Really easy. Good find 6:09 Monday 14 november

The hint was needed, found it straight away. Well done!

Found it, quite easy tftc

Cool bus stop

Great spot

20 January 2022 17:33. A quick find in an unexpectedly good location, TFTC.

#10,708. I had just collected Infoferret from the airport and we had dropped off her bags in Green Bay. It was late in the day but decided to do a few caches around Titirangi. This was one of them. I remember finding the previous cache hidden in this bus shelter. But that was before it morphed into an urban library. IF made a quick find of this one. Signed the logbook and replaced the container where found. Thanks ZWilde1 for hiding the cache here.

Great find in a very cute bus stop! Hard to park the car safely here

Found it with lugy. Very cute thank you !

Cute little spot!

Found it! Great spot

Spotted from a far so was going to log it even though level 4 but then saw the inventory had a trackable! Lots of hand sanitiser later….

Found while walking the dogs on a fine day .I used to have a Cache here years ago called The Stone bus stop I removed it due to it being muggled too many times this was before the book swap was there . Good to see you are persevering with it. TB in.

Great cache

Awesome little spot!

Tried to get through this area before the rain set in...didn't quite work, but there was enough room for both myself and Little April as the heavens opened. Nice cache.....I've messaged the CO with what I found, but the cache is still active as of today...cheers V.

TFTC found today with my son Isaac Signed the log and took a couple books! Will be back to swap them out for more!

Nice quick find was had here, cool spot with all the books! TFTC

Finally found it. Yay:-).
Thanks!!!

I have checked and it's still there .The photo of the tie that VANNOORTNZ posted a few days ago is the wrong tie. Please look again! Clues updated.

We found a tie

Sadly this geocache keeps going missing. I have replaced the geocache with a bigger, brighter and more fun one that is tied on to the bus shelter! If/when this goes missing we will try something different.

Had a good look around. If this was an easy find before, I'm afraid it's no longer here

Looked for a good 20 or so minutes with no luck. Maybe I'll have a look at a later date.

Looked and looked. Normally pretty good at this but no joy - will be back

We found this pretty quickly an easy find

Quick park and grab. Very unique bus stop, a lot of character.

Found while on a trip north with tmann421.
Enjoying discovering the areas and finding some caches.
Signed the log tm/ww NZ
Wonderful place, managed to swap a book while I was here
TFTC

Another good cache found today with woolwood9
We enjoyed walking / driving around the area
*Thanks for putting out this container for us to find!*
SL **tm/ww NZ**

Great location ww9 liked looking at the books here as well.

Been here twice when this cache was AWOL.
Thanks CC for replacing!
Supernannny scored a few books....

Clues were great. My first geocache!

Easy thx

Met the owner of the cache by total chance. We told them we had looked for this cache, but it was probably missing...

Yesterday I removed an archived cache, GC16ZM2, and the container worked perfectly for this cache.

I gave it to the owner, they put it in place and this morning I signed the logbook!

So this cache is officially back in play.

Make sure to rehide it well and out of sight!

Thanks to the CO for the maintenance and of course everything else!

We had an amazing time in Titirangi!

Took a medium length look, but I didn’t come across it.

I will search again, but if the CO passes by the cache, they may want to double check.

I was there recently with nette1234 and had a reasonably long look and couldn't find it this time....

Found 5/10/19. Swapped a couple of things.

Met up with TheWonderStuff this morning to go caching out West and add a few more gemstones to our collections and try and unlock the vault. Had no idea this very cool library was here. A quick glance around and I spotted the cache.

Out finding a few caches today - Good fun. Good location for a cache.

TFTC

Awesome place to visit. Bring a book and swap it out.

Easy find easy dubs replace pencil

This is what Geocaching is for! To show us places like this one! Thanks for placing hide here.

What an interesting bus stop. Quick & easy find but lingered longer in the library ...

Quick find of this cache on my way past. I remember getting ftf on a cache here in the past. Looks like a library has sprung up in the meantime. TFTC

Thanks! Fun to find

Nice cache and a TB. Thanks for the cache.

Thanks For The Cach :p

I'm house sitting in the area and as we finally had a nice sunny day at the weekend I went for an explore of the area to find some caches. It's so good to see there are lots of books to be swapped here and I had no trouble with finding the cache

Out on a long walk in the area, the cache location is now a public book swap. So next time bring a book.

Log later

The book swap is a new feature since the last cache here.

TFTC

What an awesome place! Quick find but worth the little trek over the hill from Titirangi beach. Many thanks

Did not want to leave NZ without finding a Cache. Thank you for this one!

Quick find out with Rustynz Tftc

Was at the French Bay event, enjoying live music and yummy food with rebel98

So what do we do? come and find our nearest cache. I remember finding one here previously, and today I see a community library has been fitted inside. Thanks for the hide, and bringing us here!

Out this way after a quick trip to the markets and headed off in search of this one.

Had grabbed a cache here before but don't recall the library being here - really loved what they've done with the place. The cache was sitting out amongst the other bits and pieces here so I replaced it back in line with the hint. TFTC

Been here for past caches, this time an easy find
Many thanks for bringing me here!!

Enjoying some of the caches in and around Titirangi on a pleasant Spring morning. Love the fact there is a library for the commuters to utilise while they wait for their chariot. TFTC

Found it Sunday. Nice little cache that was fun to hunt for.

I have been meaning to get this cache for a while. The break in the rain today was a good excuse so quickly paid a visit. Tftc

Was in the area with Mrcleverclogs so stopped off at this wonderful old bus stop, was thrilled to see a book swap. Swapped a book and signed the log.

Found with Granny, nice quick find after swapping a toy and a book.

Wow super easy that one i remember trying to find the last cache here tftc Lokky1 May 13, 2017 14:03

Was very pleased to find Jo's cache last night after work ...
Congratulations on your first Geocache Placement !
Must also mention the very cool big Book Swap container which is there....Will bring some books to donate next time I'm in the area ! Great Initiative .
Big apology though...while replacing cache under eaves it disappeared from view down a hole !
I had added several toys too.... sadly .
I emailed CO but no reply ...
I put a replacement small green Sistema there but is a bit obvious...Sorry, again.

{FTF}. This came out this evening just after we had got home from work and a horrendous drive through peak hour traffic. Close to home we just had to make a dash for it. Stove off -Check. Dryer of - Check. Torch - No. Race and find a torch. Finally we shot down here and got stuck behind the slowest Space Ship on the road. Arrived and no one in sight. Soon had the cache spotted and opened. Nice to have a FTF after something of a drought.
