Easter break and it’s time to catch up on the year to date coins. Spotted the”Take Me to the River” series and being a Talking Heads fan I decided this was the series for us today. Drove from Mosgiel, stopping in at Palmerston for a McGregor’s mutton pie we parked at the Round Hill road intersection and set off down Robb’s Crossing Road on foot. Returned to the car and did the rest by park and grab.

Thanks to the CO for placing and maintaining all the caches we found today
Easy find

Thanks this logging a different log each time I find a cache is hard work on a day like today when we have found 61 cache and a few more to go. Out with Kiscardi.

A planned geocaching trip with specific targets in mind.
1: The final 2 caches to fill my D/T grid
2: The last 5 caches available (all in the South Island) to meet the NZ Jasmer challenge GC4R9Z6
3: Get as many caches as possible in a day (Solo)
I had no timetable and only a vague route (Christchurch - Dunedin- Invercargill). So after 20 days of sleeping in my tent/car I arrived home having traveled 4500km and visited some interesting places. Met some great people. I had found over 650 caches. That was a lot of park. Jump out out. Find cache sign and return. Then on to the next. All this done by myself. Also attended an event and had 2 FTF
Mission 1 and 2 were achieved and I had a best day of 153 caches. All this done by myself.
Day 14 Herbert Forrest to Waitaki 51 caches found today. Missions completed by now so caching my way back up the island. Thank you for the placement.

A "mini Power Trail". Hobbled in and out of the car for each of these after falling down a bank at an earlier cache. TFTC.

I had parked my snail shell up iin Oamaru at the A&P Showgrounds so that I can find a few caches to fulfil my personal challenge of having my GC.COM calender a set shade of green. I need to sign off 6 caches today.

This power trail will do very nicely.

Cheers for the cache.

Scrolling thru last night, I stumbled on a new trail a couple of k's away from where we are staying for the weekend, got up early this morning and away we went. Nice easy wee series. Found with Tuitigger. TFTC

Another easy roadside cache. Ran back to other one...

On the back roads around oamaru today to tick of a few out of the way caches.... What's this a power trail of new caches ..to good to miss nice quick find with one of the kids as Co driver/cacher tftc

Yes all good here. TFTC

Sitting at home logging the days, caches then the email started going nuts, new caches close by, well have to go for a look, checked the wrong one first. -Thanks Bitsprayer
