Set out for an afternoon at the local playground with the family. Fired up the old Geocache app and snagged me another find. Nice quick find with the help of the hint. Thanks for the cache.
checked on the cache today as two DNFs. In truth , the cache was missing. We have replaced with a new one and it is now good to go.
woolwood9 & I are on a 9 day trip "*up north."*Bit of looking soon had the container found and log signed. We really enjoyed the drive / walk around.Signed logs *tm/ww NZ**Thank you for putting this cache out for us to visit!*
Over in Hamilton this afternoon cruising around picking up a few geocaches. Unfortunately I think there was a case of cache blindness here, but I just couldn't find it! Another time...
Hard to spot, lots of creepy spiky horror vines and spiderwebs. Very Halloween-ey! TFTC, it was actually a great hide.I left a travel bug btw 
Out with Agazo today, this cache didn't like me, tree branch hit my head, good thing it's thick, tftc
I was out today with nufrat finding as many caches as we could around Hamilton. Having a navigator along really sped things up and made driving less stressful. TFTC.
I had to be fairly mindful of some worker muggles nearby, but fortunately they were just out of sight of GZ.It took a few checks of area's that matched the clue before the cache was spotted. Thanks for setting this up
Had the itch for a walk today so grabbed the dog and a fellow cacher, we were heading home from Chartwell and couldn't help but grab a couple more. Since my fellow cacher had already found this they were more than happy to make quips while I searched TFTC
We are back in New Zealand to have the holiday we should have had 4 years ago, Covid-19 put and abrupt end to that holiday. We have got a few places earmarked to visit, Lake Taupo, Napier and then Palmerston North.We are out with our niece in Chartwell who is showing us around. I left the wife and Alaura to do some retail therapy, not my idea of fun, so a spot of caching was in order.Greetings from the UK.Arrived at GZ and initially search at the wrong fence post. Moved a few feet to my right and there was the cache in plain sight.Log signed and cache replaced as found.Thanks to OwlieTeam for placing.Find 3 of 7Total finds 3567
*Spoiler alert*Nicely tucked away behind some ivy but it took me a few minutes to find
Was on my way to a Leap Day 24 Event in Hamilton....but I had time to stop at this newish cache on the way.Was pretty busy here today , with lots of teams of kids playing soccer.And some spectators near GZ.So I had to try and be extra stealthy.Thanks, OwlieTeam, for the placement....all good here.
With Gap (of Fap and Gap)... Our big focus was on attending this months instalment of (February) 18@18. We timed our run into Hamilton to begin in the early afternoon, and we cached along a circuitous corridor into the event.We timed our arrival perfectly. We seemed to have the run of the park and quick access to the cache. On departure, we passed mothers and children who appeared suddenly. Thank OwlieTeam. TFTC.
play ground empty of muggles when we went for this cache.quick find and sign.walked back around corner to car and 3 mums and kids on playground.great timingTFTCj
**#20,690**We contemplated having a play in the park, well, I guess geocaching is playing, and we were doing that in the park so....Quickly found, thank you for the hie.
Short stroll to GZ. Found quickly in the second place we checked. Thanks for bringing us to this nice park,
Was stopping near by and took the 2 block detour to park nearby and claim the find. Didn't even know this park was here as this isn't part of the city I am familiar with. Found exactly where it should be. TFTC
Wow what a cool spot for a new geocache. I love this park and come here often with my son. Thanks for this nice placement, a new favourite for me.
[FTF]What a great start to my weekend. Nice location and a good hide too. Have been so busy with life in the last weeks, it is nice to do a bit of geocaching again. Thank you for the cache and have a lovely weekend.
