Thank you supernannny who kindly did some maintenance on my cache whilst visiting Turangi. A new lid and log, so all ready for the next finder
Out to Trangi for a couple days with the cousins.We decided to go out for a walk while all the boys were still sleeping. A very nice day here! And a great walk. I wasnt planning to cache here do I wasnt prepared so i didnt bring a pen. If we do this walk again I will log them. Quick find, cache has no lid and I will assume it will be waterlogged soon so maintenance is probably recommended. I placed the cache carefully back as found. TFTC.

Found it during a short coffee-,break on my way to Wellington. Sadly I can't stay in this beautiful area!
We have been staying in the vicinity for a week, waiting for the right weather for a bike ride to clean up some of the new caches since we were here last. This was a great start. Cache is all good. TFTC
On our way home to Christchurch from Auckland. Road Trip Day 1 - Auckland to Turangi. Just a few caches found today on a walk around Turangi. This was the first one I came to. All good here. Cache found in the first place I checked. TFTC, Biggles.
Gosh, Turangi is just full of accommodation options: lodges, hotels, motels, B&Bs, you name it. And such a variety of places to eat. I guess the mainstay here is tourism.
I took a gentle amble up to the bridge so that I could also collect a waypoint for the Adventure Lab. The hint was useful and I immediately saw where I needed to have a look. Today we didn't see anybody fishing near this spot, but I gather it's a very popular site.
