Great cache!

Well it's ANZAC Day today. Our little Maungatapere Community has been having a service run by the local primary school kids for 20 years now. It's at a reasonable time - you bring a plate to enjoy a cuppa and chat afterwards. We moved away for a few years so it was nice to attend today to commemorate the sacrifices made by our service personal. It was also a good chance to catch up with old friends. My daughter wasn't recognized as she was only 5 when we left the area. Now she's 17 and very tall. Anyway we then went home and watched a movie before I set off for Auckland for a few days geocaching. Only time for a few finds today before I'm off to drop a monarch butterfly chrysalis to the Grandkids. A nice new area and a quick find. Thanks for the cache

**20,767**Managed to find a carpark relatively nearby and a short walk back to the cache hiding spot. Nicely hidden amongst the natural debris. Quickly signed and returned as found and another short walk back to the van. TFTC

Easy find,

Stopped by for a quick find here, after a very pleasant coffee break over the road, with Merlot & Hearo420 & our Geo-pups. Thanx ftc:-)

This is our first one found! Were so happy, thank you

A place I pass on a regular basis. Thank you

This certainly was the spot to be on a sunny Sunday autumn day. We stopped nearby at the cafe after listening to the bird calls here. We felt like we were in a holiday resort. Tftc

Lurking in the area today so whipped in to grab this one. Nice quick find while no one was around. Lovely area. [TFTC]

Driving from Auckland back to northland I just need to stop from here to there to there and here, yay so many caches new to me And my muggle friends are so very much patient with me, Ill feed them with more wine tonight Found wellTftc

After visiting relatives in Orewa, we had time to find a few caches before heading home. We parked closeby and walked the last few metres to gz. A quick find here in a very peaceful location. TFTC

On our journey through New Zealand today a trip from Whitianga to Orewa. Of course we also search in Orewa, but we are overwhelmed by the offer here. Thank you very much to CO for laying this cache. With warm geocache greetings from the Netherlands

Have a spare afternoon so decided to visit several new caches in the area. Quick find here. Tftc

We are out caching around Orewa with Team Welsh this morning. Parked nearby and made our way to GZ where the cache was easily located. Thanks for bringing us here. Now it is time for some lunch.

Picking up a few new caches in Owera.Called in to see Merlot as she lives just down the road from this one.

Yay!{FTF}. Saw this pop up in the morning and Ive struggled to get here all day with two appointments and then lots of phone calls to deal with and even now as Im writing the log up. Beautiful spot to visit and thanks!FO added

What a shame I was working when this cache was published otherwise I would have made the 125m stroll to it from my place. I walk past this spot nearly every day so knew exactly where to look.
