Since June 2023 cache has constantly gone missing/log taken/lying on the ground - a so called cacher who abused us online because he couldnt find it then when I told him where it was abused us even more! So sadly we have decided to archive it. ????

When I first attempted this two years ago I pulled out before finding the cache because there was someone directly on the other side of the wall talking to someone else and it didn't feel right as I could hear the entire conversation. Popped in today and container immediately in hand - and all was quiet. TFTC.

Day three on the OTR. Stayed at Wedderburn Cottages. Bit of a chilly start this morning.
Cheers
 
21-Feb-22
On a trip south from Tauranga. Nice to collect smiles along the way. Cycling the OTR. Apologies for some previous logs where I forgot to change my log template. Enjoying the fab scenery around these parts. Met up with Dee+ME to cycle with as our muggle hubbies we’re more interested in other things lol.


I am logging using the Cachly app template so please excuse generic logging along the way. It’s just my way of keeping track, but I do genuinely thank each and every one of you cache owners for taking the time and energy to place these caches. Logged with permission. Many Thanks for bringing me here. Cheers.

AliGle and I were doing a bit of a tour around the south of the South Island in a Jucy Camper over a few weeks. Day 2 was driving from St Bathans to Oamaru, through Central Otago.

Term 2 break. Planning for next term is done and it's time for a winter getaway before the third term begins. So it's off to Naseby we go to rekindle childhood memories of racing around the tailings but this time hunting for caches.

Decided to look for this one after having used the facilities at the information centre. Easy find.

Very creative!
 
11-Jul-21
Loved this cache! I love a cache hidden in plain sight and this one probably met that brief. We had stayed the night at Ophir and were heading back to Gore (the long way), and I was pretty keen to stop and grab caches at each town on our way home
TFTC, we will be back for more another day
 
10-Jul-21
Found on this chilly but sunny afternoon. TFTC

15-Apr-21
Visiting family in our old home town so we thought we would go and look for the caches that had been placed since our last visit. Our son and family, Team_Gaters, had visited the area at Easter. The gps pointed to a different area but with Pink Floyds song in our head we quickly found the cache and had the log signed. Thanks for the cache
