#13,881. After spending the morning geocaching around Cambridge it was time to head towards Hamilton and rather than get there at 110 km/hr I decided to drive the slower path picking up the Te Awa trail caches. Nice quick find here although had to wait for a speeding bike to roar past. Signed the logsheet and replaced the cache as found. Thanks elwyn1948 for hiding it here.

A nice quick find. Thanks for placing your cache. Ms_KR and I are on the road again, up "North" to visit family an friends. Today was a bike ride around the block. Nice and flat and successful! Occassionally signed MK+KR on cache logs, and apologies for the generic logs.Thanks to all CO's for publishing and maintaining their caches.

No problems here, TFTC

The promise of a fine, warm day had us out and about on our bikes for a long overdue caching trip on some of Waikato's great bike trails. Plenty of families out on their bikes as well. Cache is all good. TFTC

Another one ticked off, tftc

Out for a walk today so decided to park here and after signing the log walk to the next and back. Spotted quickly and signed. Thank you for the placement.

Out and about hunting down smilies to complete the final souvenier challenge.Staying at Mystery Creek to attend the moho show but time out today for caching. Unfortunately we don't have the bikes with us so driveby caching required. No problems with the cache TFTC

In Cambridge for the daffodil show, had time to find some more caches this afternoon. Thanks elwyn1948 for the cache.

OK, got the helpful hint and soon spotted. Tftc.

School holidays so time for a road trip and some caching. Stayed the night on Duncan road near the end of the trail. Woke ridiculously early and walked the whole trail collecting all 14 caches. Was very grateful that the finds were straight forward and a phone torch sufficed. Did have a full moon show itself intermittently which helped. Lots of straining here but got there in the end. Thanks for a fun time.

Out today to get our points for The Solstice souvenir
Bit wet day this way
Nice wee hide Thanks

Out and about with ABCDF4 picking up points for the solastic souvenir,
nice quick finds with not to many mugglers Thanks Elwyn.

Had to watch out for the farmer working near by.

Another easy find while down in Hamilton .

A fun bike ride along the trail this afternoon. Nice quick find and helpful hint here, TFTC

A nice little find on a very foggy day. TFTC

Smell the country air! Easy find...TFTC

It was good to get out of Rotorua today and over the hill into the Waikato area for a bit of geocaching. The weather was a lot nicer than in Rotorua. We went via Matamata, Morrinsville and on to Hamilton then home through Cambridge. Thanks to the CO for hiding.

no straining here today.
cache soon in hand.

With (Mr) Davidson Clan and Gap (of Fap and Gap)… The continuing bad weather and the Rotorua Marathon weren’t enough of a deterrent from caching. Another mini road trip across the Waikato.

A quick find before an inundation of cyclists (a collective noun)… Thanks elwyn1948. TFTC.

Cache was a quick find, took longer to twist the log to come out of the unusual cache container than it did to find it. TFTC

Didn’t take long to find thanks to the hint. Tftc

Had to be quick as kids were riding along the path. Another quick find thanks to the hint. Tftc

Back on the trail, easy find, on to the next one

Sunday morning ride and caching on the way tftc

Very busy this morning

Our second to last find of the day and a nice quick one.
This seems to be a much less busy section of the trail with less walkers, cyclists and traffic and we enjoyed the peace and quiet.

Number two for the day. Was found out in the open so tucked it away where I think it's meant to be.TFTC.

Saw this published whilst I was at work tonight. Wasn't found log so why not a midnight drive. Took my very bright lamp for an easy find at 0020. Tftc. [FTF]#440

A quick find here with FMZ in the dark, and I learnt what "strain" means in geocaching! TYFTC!

After a nearby FTF with Jagersmum, we decided it would be rude not to visit this one as well. A very quick find here and then off home. TFTC!!!
