replacing in a different place

Need to change

C missing now its Woolworths. but Out with team SEAC on yet another cycle adventure. Nice ride along the cycleway. TFTC

A plan was hatched for available Team Seacers to head over and check out the caches on this new cycleway. NurseDr, UncleSam, Mr Stik-a-Crane, cragger and laval were all keen. The weather was great, company was awesome and caches were of course fantastic! Took a little turn off to grab an extra few caches and made our way here. Due to a multimillion dollar makeover the place has been renamed so hint no longer makes sense but that didn't stop us...nice quick find. Thanks for the cache.

No C no more for the hint :-pOut with a few members of Team SEAC on our bikes today. Sorry for the generic logs. Thanks so much for placing these caches. All logs signed either SEAC or Team SEAC.

Hint might need to change to a W from C, when it gets put back in place......In the area today with the SEAC group of cachers for a cycle along this newly cache populated cycle way......I had managed to pick the odd on off on previous visits to the area, so today we were going to do the trail in its entirety.....A good variation of cache hides here as expected from this CO, meaning an enjoyable day was had....plus they were all there and in good condition.....Signed in as 'SEAC' to save logbook space as I was joined by Keylev, UncleSamNZ, NurseDr, Laval to name a few.TFTC.

Found this one with flossie (clearly before it was archived!). Nice to grab a bit of shopping and a cache at the same time! Thanks G_2.

**20,839**I am not sure why this cache took me quite so long to locate, other than I must have directional issues. I was pretty sure what I was looking for and where it should be but it took me several minutes to lay my hands on it. A sigh of relief at the end!! TFTC

After walking the Northern Pathway picking up the new series of caches along the way we realised we needed a few supplies so headed over to the supermarket. We had seen this cache was here as we walked the pathway so were keen to look for it as well.The supermarket has now been converted into Woolworths making the cache name a lot more cryptic and also nostalgic and the hint item has been removed also. But geosenses were all that was needed to make a nice quick find.In a very similar situation to the previous finder the temptation to visit the nearby Shine One store was too strong for Mrs Coblet to resist so she headed in to have a look while Mr Coblet waited in the car.As it was a hot day the car started to heat up quite quickly so he was soon panting and dripping with sweat as he constantly checked his watch and wondered what on earth could be taking her so long.A muggle was outside the store pacing and looking at his watch and it was obvious he was in a similar predicament, but at least he had fresh air. Looking in the window a less fortunate muggle who had made the mistake of entering could be seen walking a few steps behind his wife holding an ever growing pile of garments with a glazed look on his face.It's a trap, take heed and visit this cache at your own risk.But the unexpected bonus of Mr Coblet's prolonged incarceration was that he had a chance to check the Northern Pathway caches and realised one had been published a bit later than the others and had been missed. So the anticipation of finding that got him through the ordeal and when Mrs Coblet finally emerged with her purchases it was off in search of it, with the air conditioning at full blast.

My wife went to Shine On and I got bored so I was stoked to discover a cache near by. Simple and effective camo. Quick find thanks to the hint. Now what am I going to do for another 30 minutes?

I eventually got the meaning of the cache title not feeling really smart right now . Quick find though at gz and no one around. TFTC

#370. Went to Countdown for some veges. While my wife went inside, I wondered if there were any caches in the area. Fancy that... one just across the way in the car park itself! Niiice. I did as the instructions said and signed it discreetly. TTFC.

Always a G2 cache nearby even when the groceries need to be done on a busy Saturday. Tftc

Picking up my sis from work and grabbed this! TFTC!

As SN navigated to gz, MrsJAG thought she was navigating her to the supermarket to get supplies instead. After finding a car park near gz, MrsJAG climbed up to get this cache, and soo had it in hand. Thanks for the smilie

Quick grocery stop on a busy day tftc

Found this one a while ago but only just realized the log hadn't logged! Was a nice sneaky find and a bit of fun for the kids after doing a boring old grocery shop. TFTC

Out and about giving the elder future finder some more driving practice. Of course, there was no reason not to navigate to a cache or three along the way. This was our first stop. The future finder parked up and I walked over to GZ. A clear hint meant I was able to execute a super quick find here. Cheers for the cache placement!

Last find for today, and I was not sure what to expect here from the cache title. All did indeed become clear as I drove nearer. Hard to be discrete in this situation, but I managed to retrieve and replace the container without too much fuss. TFTC

Nice quick find after a trip to the store. TFTC

Great cache - great day to be out - many thanks

Tftc

Really easy find tftc

Easy find after doing some shopping today. TFTC

Enough light remaining for one more, this was it. A brave New World of finds I guess, cheers G, nice and easy here as per hint.

I have a week away at Auckland this week, getting there on Monday evening and leaving to come home on Friday arvo. I'm here with a work colleague, Carl, who has cached with his daughters a few years ago so is aware of my affliction and was keen to come along and accompany me when I headed out. We had a hire car to assist us in our duties, and it was good to have options after hours as well as during the week when the weather was often decidedly 'average'. Not a huge amount of finds but a few more G_2 ones to push me ever closer to 15000 total finds. Thanks to the COs for their hides which have appeared since I left at the end of January.

M24: went shopping for a snack, then came back to retrieve this cache. A nice and risky find with drivers all around. But log is signed and all is good. TFTC.

Almost parked next to it but not quite. Good job Daddypig was with me to reach it. Then remembered the pen was in the car so did some shopping then went back to sign it.

Thanks G2, now I've got that song by the 80's band Europe stuck in my head... Nice easy hint, and very quiet here tonight so an easy find, cheers

Heading towards a significant milestone so slowly collecting caches. Love the title which makes complete sense and a nice easy find. TFTC

Out with Supernannny.
Nice quick find. Thanks for the good hint.

Out caching with Nette1234 today...happy to have some new ones to find - a cool Monday morning Adventure .
I still don't understand the name....but guessed straightaway where the cache was hiding.
Good one thanks.
Not too busy here today.

Published

I was able to park up close to this cache and it was surprisingly quiet at gz despite the car park being very full so I was able to sneak in and make the find easily. I took the cache away to sign the log for my 3rd {FTF} on the Shore and my 4th one for the day as I had managed to get ftf on a new Onehunga puzzle. Once the log was signed it was still quiet so an easy return was made. As my purpose for heading out was to go to the supermarket I made the most of the location, got what I needed and headed home just as a few spits of rain came down.
