Today we had a good drive / wander round the town and picked up several caches - trads, puzzles we had solved and a few multis worked on today too.Parked up and wandered over to this one. Quite busy but we spotted a likely candidate fairly quickly and it was the unusual cacheTFTC Tim and Viv - ddm

Tricky find for our holiday crew today. Sun was shining but wind was cold! Glad we persisted and kids were stoked. Didn't have a pen to sign so will have to return another day
 
29-May-23
Got to GZ & had a bit of an idea but looked on both sides & we couldn't see anything obvious. Tried a few things no luck. Then I noticed something slightly different, ummm better have a look at that. Well it took a bit to get it on the right angle to want to come out. Got it out & then it took us a minute to click, oh my the Rubbishparty caches keep getting better. Definitely a fave point for this, so simple but clever. TFTC

We walked around sort of thinking we had a bit of an idea but couldn't see anything obvious. Then kimbathelion saw something different & eventually got it out & what a surprise. Worthy of a fav point.

We are in the North Island with the main purpose of completing the PWGT Tahi section so we have been to the far north. Along the way we will pick up a few other caches that take our interest such as those with lots of favourites or size large or letterbox caches or some that will just help us to fulfil some of the various challenges we are working on. One of those challenges is to have 25 finds in every county of the country. We were short in Taranaki and in Gisborne - hence we have come here on our way home to ensure we find enough caches to fulfill that challenge in Nelson.

Well if I thought the last one was a sneaky hide - it has nothing on this one. Again I was pleased I had a big umbrella to hide under. I looked around and kind of sat around as much as I could as everything was wet by then. I spotted something that needed some investigating - I thought it was what I was looking for but it was pretty tricky to access. I had to put the umbrella down and use the two hand approach then I got it. Really clever hide this one - I have never come across one like this before - so it gets a favourite from me

We are really enjoying the places we are visiting and the knowledge we are gaining through the tour, we just wish we had more time to explore these areas further. I guess once we retire that wish will come true.

With the new souvenir challenge we need to use the app to log the finds, but as I like to waffle on and write my stories on my laptop I am writing these while back at the campervan.

Thank you for placing this cache and thank you for the smiley

Sunny side up

Pretty hard to conduct a good with so many muggles around, so I sat down and let my eyes do the searching. I spotted something that showed potential and sure enough cache was in hand.
Thanks for the clever cache hide
