Staying at the NZMCA park nearby, so grabbed this cache this morning while it wasn't raining. A super cool hide here, did a TB swap before heading off, TFTC
staying very close to this one, so i had do find it, a quick find, even found a path tag, don't see them in the wild often now, tftc
Lovely cache site, and quick find. Added a TB from the US. Travel far little big!
A nice quick find. I took off on my bike while Ms_KR visited the museum/art gallery. Well placed container. Thanks for placing your cache. Ms_KR and I are off on a cruise around the south of the South. Great to be away. The day was fine, though quite overcast, as we travelled around SouthlandOccassionally signed MK+KR on cache logs, and apologies for the generic logs.Thanks to all CO's for publishing and maintaining their caches.
Found - Mrs McMike2012 & I live full-time in our caravan travelling around NZ, visiting the places we want to visit & doing the things we want to do and fitting in a bit of Geocaching here & there we are in Invercargill visiting family & decided to go for a wander out along Stead Street a quick stop off here to snag this cache easy find, log book completed & safely return to its position were pleased to add another 'smiley face' to the tally TFTC ... TN:LN:LS this was #6,136 for us!
Went for a quick cache near the campsite nice hide had to go back to it as I walked off with the pen in my hand safely returned TFtc
Went for a bike ride around these parts this afternoon and rode past quite a few caches. Stopped to look for just three. Didnt spot this one quite as quickly as I should have, but didnt take long. #7283. TFTC.
Love it when caches bring us to interesting places or history. This ticked both. A lovely walk around the estuary too. Thanks for the hide.
Cache 1670 Had been saving this cache for a nice quick grab, and today was that day nice and handy to the Cito, event, and multi cache for todays many cache types on this special geocaching day 29/2 T4TC
First cache of the day while making our way to the airport to pick up family memeber and then heading to Stewart Island.A quick find and on to the next one.TFTC
Found as we waited for a connection flight to Stewart Island, going tramping on the southern circuit
Quick park n grab, I remember finding this a while back with someone else was good to get my iwn smiley on here TFTC
Parked up for the night nearby and wandered down here after dinner to give the dog a stretch looked in the hint area but no luck for me
Nice quick drive cache and dash here, nice boat.. I would rather keep my legs on dry land though, cheers for the smile
#23435. Quick find here. We've found a cache around here before (possibly in exactly the same place). TFTC.
The weather forecast for today was not good, so StreetWalkerNZ and I were out and about at 8 am to take advantage of fine weather.We had found the original cache here, but happy to return and find the reincarnation. SW found it quickly in the on again, off again drizzle. Nicely tucked away. TFTC.
Lunchtime at the Stead St wharf, getting the info for the multi. Then a short detour to see the size of a cutter, before heading towards "Pleasure Lagoon".
After lunch and much searching of signs for info for the multi, we headed off to see the cutter that daywalk had already located. A quick search revealed nothing and then daywalk had a better look which revealed a great hiding place, worth a cache even without the cutter. Worth a fave from me.TNLN. TFTC.
Excellent hiding spot; TFTC. I picked up the 2 TBs that were in the container. The third one logged in this cache appears to have gone missing.Love the boat.
Found one here a few years back when staying in the NZMCA Park next door. Filling in time while waiting for a courier package to arrive at my son's place. Geopup Finn and I dressed up warm to stave off the cold wind and went hunting again. Quick easy find knowing where to look after last find here.
Dropped off a trackable for some Scottish lads, appropriate due to the Scottish heritage around these parts. Good luck with the rest of your journey boys! We enjoyed having you along.

A very pleasant part of town that I didn't know about. I should bring my bicycle to Invercargill one day. Two TB's present in the cache which has a nice dry spot. Thanks for placing.
Another great day, so time for some smilies to start this month's wheel of fortune challenge. Met up with relative newbie MaramaNZ for some adventures.
Trackable drop.
Thanks for the cache Kiscardi

Rain has finally abated so out for a walk before settling in for the night at Nzmca camp. Tftc
I just needed to get one cache today but it had to be a traditional. Did my chores and popped in on the way home. Brrr there is a cold wind today, winter is coming. Thankfully it was there, it had gone walkabout last time I tried. Thanks for replacing.
Another busy day at work, I was reminded mid afternoon via my calendar alerts, that today was a dot day.
Thanks, Pipedream for the original, which I found fourteen days into my caching career; and Kiscardi to continuing his legacy, I refound it two thousand, four hundred and eighty three days later.
I was a man of few words back then, with only three words... today I have eighty eight.
I now have eight dot days left, my next one being twenty one days away.
Thanks for replacing.

We found this cache at the beginning of our cycling adventure from here to Bluff. We all made it - except Ruru_nz, she became support crew once we go to the road.
Nice quick easy find, we found the previous one a few years ago so knew exactly where to go, our girls love playing on the boat! Tftc
No sooner had *Filser1* and I landed in Invercargill than we had found our first cache.T4TC
TEMBO! and I visited Invercargil and arround. This cache was of our list and we managed it.

Déjà vu. Over the years I’ve loved finding Pipedreams caches. Clever man. His hides will be around for a long time. Thanks for keeping this going Kiscardi.
Think I’ve written wrong date on log. A month out. Sorry

Despite injuring myself and getting off the Te Araroa trail back in Queenstown I still had to get down to Invercargill for a family event. Also I remember getting a cache here many years ago so nice to link past and future. Dropped TB I'd picked up in the Richmonds. TFTC
Finished the rest of my do to list in town and just enough time for a smilie before meeting someone for an early tea.
Discovered the trackable, but left for the next cacher.
Thanks for the cache Kiscardi

New log book in hidey hole. Sorry that it was missing for so long. Back in the land of the deep south after a trip to Cape Reinga .
A quick find on a dot day today, we had been saving this one for today as we knew we would be busy and looking for an easy find. It’s great to see this cache reinstated as the original was a good local cache. TFTC
Arrived this evening for a couple of days work. Had found one here before so no problem with the quick find. Thanks for the cache.
I was doing a cache checking trip after a couple of DNF reports. My trusty 2 wheeled horse was the transport to day. As I was going past this boat I dropped in to sign log in a familiar spot...who even needs to get out the GPS or phone app here!!; but at least signal is moving through the maze. TFTC
A quick side trip before we head for shopping and then work .
Quick find
Found with annielin and downsouthinv.
