Automatic translation: EN: After visiting the superb Milford Sound, our guide drops us off at the bird sanctuary. Then, we will return on foot to the hotel and we will take the opportunity to look for the caches that will be on our way. Thank you to all the installers for the work carried out for our greatest pleasure. Greetings from France. Our Travel Bugs pass through this cache but do not come out of our backpack; they continue the adventure with us. Trip to New Zealand, decided very quickly , but that didn't stop us from preparing a small file of caches to search, as far as possible. The GC46 was, of course, at the top of that list! and there you have it, we visited it during our stay in Wellington. Yesss!! Our program should allow us to discover a large part of this country.FR : Aprs avoir visit les superbes Milford Sound, notre guide nous dpose au sanctuaire des oiseaux. Ensuite, nous rentrerons pied l'htel et nous en profiterons pour chercher les caches qui seront sur notre passage. Merci tous les poseurs pour le travail ralis pour notre plus grand plaisir.Salutations de France.Nos Travel Bugs transitent par cette cache mais ne descendent pas de notre sac dos ; ils poursuivent l'aventure avec nous. Voyage en Nouvelle Zlande, dcid trs rapidement , mais cela ne nous a pas empch de prparer un petit fichier de caches chercher, dans la mesure o cela sera possible.La GC46 tait, bien sr, tout en haut de cette liste ! et voil, nous l'avons visit lors de notre sjour Wellington.

This is one of those finds that took me longer than it should have, however I realised after a while that there were some items I hadn't investigated, and sure enough, that's where the cache was hiding. Well hidden, TFTC!

Today steffixx and me spent another wonderful day here in NZ and we drove from Te Anau to Queenstown.We stopped here and spend a little time searching for this cache. In the end, we found it and it wasn't that hard . We were able to write our names into the dry logbook and the cache is now waiting in its hiding place for the next geocacher to search for it. Thanks a lot to Johnv2020 for leading us here and for showing this place and of course also for maintaining this geocache!Best wishes from the North Sea, Germany, from Cuxine . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Had to wait for a camper to depart but easy find. TFTC.

While staying in Te Anau we saw a lot of fantastic things! Awesome. We have been to Milford Sound today. But as we haven't had time with the coach and group, we did the Cache of the day when we got Back. We did look a bit around but then something caught my eye.... There it was. Sneaky. TFTC and greetings from Germanyaussi96

Weather report is no looking great for later today - so left early for a ride toward Manapouri and back. Ended up turning round at balloon loop road - so about 45 km return trip from the caravan.Trail was pretty quiet so made caching easy yay! Almost back - just in time before the weather turned nasty.TFTC

Took a good 5 mins. Thought about it and had that aha moment. Goods in hand. Out caching with daughter on way home. TFTC

Love the sneaky hiding spot. TFTC

TFTC

Nice little hide, tftc! Had a nice chat with a fellow Nelsonian here

1MinnieMoo and I were rolling into Te Anau and we decided to grab this one on a damp day.It has been 10 years since I have been to Te Anau. It's certainly a bigger town these days. 1MinnieMoo soon found this cache and signed the log - and we were on our way. A great excuse for a stop. TFTC Johnv2020

18/9/2023 Find #6548Day 10 of the Fangsoki/1MinnieMoo New Zealand South Island adventure. Today we head from Invercargill to Te Anau. The weather is cold, rainy, and windy. This was definitely a wet day find. I was glad for the shelter for signing duties here. Except when I dropped the lid and it bounced down into the bushes, so I had to retrieve it! Dohhhh!Thanks for the cache Johnv2020.

Thought it was a fake.

On a day trip to get the nearest Virtual for the current wheel of challenges.
Likely to be few extra along the way.
Fairly quick find while hubby took some photos.
That'll be it for today - been here so often there is nothing to get on the way home.

Thanks for the cache johnsgirl93

TFTC nice hide did not take too long

Another cool find. Thank you

Really overthinking the clue does not help took me 10 minutes to find and then felt stupid clever hiding place.

G'day from Australia!!!Stumble Trip had been in NZ for the past 6mths, working on the Milford Track. Stumble's Mate flew in to meet up with her and we spent the next 2wks traveling the beautiful South Island in a camper. Whilst the weather wasn't favourable for the first week, we had an awesome time and travelled some 3,200+kms, seeing some beautiful sites and staying in just as beautiful campsite along the way.Thanks to all the CO. Unless otherwise stated, all caches were found in good condition.
