Last weekend, I ended up parking here as I was test driving a possible new car and this was a handy spot to stop and view it. I didn't even think about looking to see if there was a geocache here! I only realised last night when I was looking at caches for an upcoming trip past here.Fast forward to today and after a week of watching my potential new car on the website to make sure it was still available, I arrived back here as the owner of a shiny new red toy. So it was only fitting my first find in my new toy had to be back here! Easily located and collected the travel bug.As a side note, I had to empty out my old car before buying the new one. I'm sure it was down to my geocaching hobby and not my actual job (teaching) that I managed to retrieve 42 pens from my old car!! I took said pens to my classroom and no doubt by the end of the week that 42 would be down to 2, where are the rest?! I am 'sure' my kids are eating them!!
I have moved the cache abit further on, hopefully not a toilet stop, cache is all good to go, also dropped off a tb

#12,953. I have been at a conference in New Plymouth over the weekend and it was time to head back home today. The plan was to stop along the way and pick up some caches if they were along the route south. I picked up a work colleague at Bell Block then we headed down this road. Parked nearby and headed over to GZ. Took a bit of circumspect hunting due to the human waste in the area. My colleague got down lower and made the find as per the hint. Signed the logsheet and returned the cache as found. Thanks MIOW4 for hiding it here.
Found G Z ok but at that spot there was used toilet tissue and a washed out deposit so my search was very confined and brief so it is a dnf for me here . .

Whilst on a mission to the Naki with ABCDF4, Squirrel Nutcase and Fap ( Fap & Gap), found this cache, i think the others have said it all.TFTC.
With ABCDF4, eyespyben, and Gap (of Fap and Gap)... A planned expedition into the Taranaki region. All logs were signed with our individual handles, or Team HRP (Huntly, Rotorua, Papamoa) depending on who accessed the logbook first...
King's Birthday Sunday: It rained heavily overnight, and today was marginally better… Pushing on with the Kiwiana trail today - Reminding myself about how grossed out we were at this location! Finding 5h1t so close to a cache is not ideal. We decided that if we didn’t look at it, or smell it, we could soldier on. Approached from around the corner and reached (retched) in… Thanks MIOW4. TFTC.

A quick find here and then a chance to water and run the dogs before it was back in the van and off to the next one. TFTC
