Cool thanks for the cache

Tftc. Nice hide.

Tftc took a hot minute

Again great hide. Always don't look thoroughly then go back to the obvious spot and do a better search.

Took a little while to find this one, but got there in the end. Pretty quiet here this morning so easy to conduct the search. tftd

Great day for some caching.

I was having too much luck today. This one has me positively stumped!

A sneaky little find for todays streak day. I had an idea and I was on the right track, as I had the cache in hand straight away. Thanks for the neat little hide!TFTC busy paws, the cache was found in good order Signed, sealed and returned to GZ. 2 find(s) of 3 today, making this find #4639

Came back after it was too dark the night before. Easy find and dry log.

Nicely hidden cache, took a little longer than it really should have to find. Thanks busy paws#14958

We are staying opposite this park and I've come over with the grandsons to find this cache and watch them scooting round the cool track. Wonderful park. It seems a while since I found one of the COs music themed caches and hadn't even realised it was one until now that I'm logging. It is a fun song. TFTC # 20,753

Tftc! Nice hiding spot

TFTC. Clever hide.

Gz and hint made no sense. Til we found it!! TFTC very good camo

That took way longer than it should have TFTC

Took way longer than expected but still had fun with my friends. TFTC

A clever hide in a public area

Took longer to find than it should have! Cheers Gav

Found it

Quick find on a busy day tftc

Quick find once I seen Gz

Quick find for the kids, thanks

Found after a short search here today TFTC

Not quite the right type of camo but still pretty well hidden TFTC

All fun and games.

Tftc

Found while out trying to shake down some of our Christmas Day eating. It is great to be visiting Chch to see family.
Not so busy here today. TFTC

Thought I'd try and find this one since I was in the area, unfortunately there were quite a few muggles about, so will have to come back another day.

This took a bit longer than it should have, just because I wasn't thorough enough around my initial search area.

In my defense, I am tired and this is the 6th cache I've searched for in an hour and a half since finishing work.

I'm really pleased to tick this one off as it will likely by my "D" cache for the completion of the December Spelling Challenge.
Off home now for a well needed rest.

I was relieved that KR chose this one as a possible find after 2DNFs and a didn't attempt, (as the area was too flooded after rain). Finally got this dot day sorted. The Halswell pool is open so seeing as I'm soaked anyway, I'm off for my first swim of the season. Thanks busy paws.

in view of recent comments went to check on this cache. i have "married" the cache up with it's magnetic plate, if only people would put caches back as found - - -

Pretty wet underfoot. Made searching a careful task.

Before I actually read the lyrics, I had no idea there was a line about a vegemite sandwich in the song. In fact I thought I'm reading a parody version of the song at first. Had to listen to it to believe!

I comefromdalandunundaaa!

Cache was not too hard to find, and the hint, even though not helpful, was bang on. Was the magnet supposed to do anything at all, hmmm, I could not find anywhere where to stick in to.

Kia ora! Paldies!
TFTC, busy paws!

On a trip down to Christchurch and am currently geocaching with my brother. Great spot here, TFTC

One of half a dozen caches we (little sister and I) located in this area late this afternoon after completing the nearby Ad Lab. Took a moment or two to spot this one. Fortunately it wasn’t in too difficult a spot to access! #5033. TFTC.

TFTC

Quick find with a helpful family who are passing. TFTC

TFTC!

Cool spot.

Been a while since iv been here! TFTC

Found yesterday 12/10/21 with partner witchytaz

Found. Partner (Mumbo11) not impressed that I keep "finding" them

level 2 all safe to cache now.

Lockdown. No caching at the current level!

Kia ora for the cache.

Quick find. TFTC.

Could not find

I wasn't sure what to expect when setting out to find this cache but turned out to be a quick find.
Lots of runners about this time of day, and a couple kids in the skate park.
The area is an asset to Halswell.

It’s one of those really easy places but we both over thought it and it took us a good 5 minutes. Don’t over think it KISS It KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID
Thanks for the hunt!

Did a little damage to myself but finally found it. Depends on how you approach it!

A quick easy find, safely distant from the playground. TFTC

Didn't take too long to find, a nice hiding spot TFTC!

StreetWalkerNZ and I set off late afternoon on a lovely autumn day to look for a few caches in the rich (for us) caching fields of Halswell.
Not an instant find as there were lots of potential hiding places and the muggle factor was high, given the time and the temperature, but once in the right place, SW spotted the hide and directed me to make the grab. TFTC.

#18145. This one took us a while to find (lots of potential hiding place and a high muggle factor). Reading a past log helped in narrowing down the search, and soon after I spotted the cache and told Troodles where it was. TFTC.

Mr 6 had a birthday party this afternoon and Mr9 wanted to meet a friend at the skate park first. It's too cold for standing around so I tried a few caches. I thought this one was bit exposed but Mr 6 was keen to do the scrambling for me. In the end I was the one to find it in the first place I tried but all good. Now for some more. Tftc.

All good to be found again now that restrictions have been lifted.

Until the viral lockdown is lifted, my geocaches are disabled. Any logs will be deleted. DO NOT Geocache currently.

In Christchurch for a week visiting family, today out to the Halswell trains. Found before lunch and a ride on the trains with our grandsons. Thanks busy paws for the cache.

Found it - one of those ones that you find quickly or scratch your head a fair bit - as we did!! TFTC

Kids having a good look but no luck for us again.

Great find after the tamariki listening to their mother

Took a few minutes to find it- while we were waiting for my other half to take us for a ride on his train. Nearly missed it, then suddenly realised I had touched it. tftc

Hard to look inconspicuous with all the people at the train day. Thanks for placing.

On the way home from a great day at Birdlings Flat. Called in and found this cache - very quick and easy. Thanks for the cache. Rodney and Iris.

Great area - TFTC

Oooo that little red herrhint was very distracting.... We almost gave up then one last attempt and voila
TFTC

Well, that was certainly harder than it needed to be, hehe. Was just about to call it a day, log that DNF, when I found it. Now it seems so simple. Thanks for the fun.

Quick find, lots of muggles out and about on a fine Sunday afternoon; TFTC

This took us quite a while to find, feeling into lots of places more complicated than the final turned out to be. When you know where it is, it seems simple. Just requires a patient methodical search. TFTC!

Great hide thanks.

Great find! Lovely sunny day

Fun find thanks

House sitting in the area and taking a dog for a walk. Lots of caches in the area. Tftc

Doing caches in the area TFTC

#131
Somehow off the coords a little bit, searched several possible spots but no luck. Then switched to a different perspective and the cache was in sight. Easy grab and sign.

A lot of kids playing rugby on the nearby field.

TFTC!

Found whilst out caching with richbritty my son in law and our grandson on wet Sunday afternoon. Took a bit time to find it but got there in the end.TFTC-Nice Hide.

A bit of searching then bingo. Tftc

Tftc relocating track a bee

An easy find and we left a travel bug.

Quick and easy, great hide. TFTC

Found on a nice drive in the area

On a visit to the park with Talla64, Junior cacher, TipsyTui and geocacher support member. The trains were running so lots of muggles around. Talla64 and I looked for the cache while the others finished their picnic. The cache was a quick find - thanks for placing a cache in this great park.

Found today more to follow

Found with mum while stopped for a lunch break. I had a look after her and found it where she had been checking.

Had a list of caches we were going to hunt while in Christchurch with the car at the mechanics due to a warning light coming on. The mechanic connected his computer and declared there was nothing wrong with the engine and he would deal to the warning light next time we were due for an oil change, probably early next month. So we basicly turned around and went straight home only stopping at this park to eat our lunch and find a cache not on our list for today. Cache found with the help of KN v2.0 as the other two were too busy eating and kicking their football around.
Well I guess there is always next time for those other ones.

Another busy paws find , while I'm on the way to visit her !
Not many people about today - I'm sure it's really busy here at weekends . Thanks for placing & maintaining this cache.

TFTC. Out for an early morning cache. Lots of activity at the playground.
Thanks busy paws for placing the cache.

Another lunchtime mission to find a few caches to get closer to my goal for the year. Area was deserted today and the cache was a quick find. Thanks for the cache.

Hiiiinteresting

Last time we spent ages, got wet feet and were too embarrassed to log a DNF. Today we just cruised to GZ, grabbed the cache, signed the log and returned it. Easy. But how did we miss it? The mysteries of Geocaching. TFTC

TFTC took longer then it should but found on this springs evening

This morning I had time to find a few caches before I had to the airport and home. I went down under came back up again and then spotted the cache. TFTC, Biggles.

We found a number of caches on this trip - thanks to all the hiders for there hides. Trying to get these all logged.

Good to be back in CHCH, my hometown

TFTC

Stopped by with the cachelets for a play at the playground. Cachelet #1 and #2 stayed on the play ground as cachelet #3 and I found this one. Nice and easy as there were a few muggles about on this lovely winters day.

Thanks for the cache busy paws.
