We got icecreams at the local store, and came to eat them sitting in the sun here, enjoying the view. My
GPS kept jumping around at first (wondered if it was the local Defence Area jamming us?). The clue helped. Cache was a bit damp, so dried it out & added some gold coins to the stash! Tftc

Master 5 thrilled with this cache, full of toys but no travel bugs. Cache is damp, log wet and plastics bags full of condensation. Laminated page completely unreadable. Dried out as much as possible. Tftc
Out enjoying a bike ride on a nice quiet day. Not many muggles in sight on Christmas. 
Nice big cache, so added to the stash. Really wet in there though, so the next finder may want to take a towel to dry it out. Really, really great to have a nice big cache! [^]
Right round the corner from me so a good start to my caching experience, tftc

Following a few days work in Auckland, I stayed on to spend a couple of days caching (and to cache up with my kids at uni). My phone ran out of power again as I neared GZ. Did the last 50m without GPS and relied on the hint. Easily found. Left TB. TFTC.

Interesting architecture in this area. Spanish theme is popular and loved the bell. This cache was a quick find but the log was damp.
Took longer than I'd like to admit to. Appreciate the container. Enjoyed looking for this, thanks.
Done tonight on a long meandering drive back from doing Route66 to the North Shore - not very directly lol - Stretch0 had already searched this area when I decided to go back and have a proper look - and guess what - there it was - how could he have missed that signed the log - thanks for the cache

A good find, lots of goodies been left here, very damp inside, make sure you screw the lid on properly
The large container was well hidden, should have been easy to find, I didn't look properly so it took me awhile.
Nice quick find from the youngest CODEhill member who we are caching with today. Nice view on this sunny day. TFTC
We zijn op vakantie in New Zealand en hebben een paar dagen rust in Auckland voordat we on tour gaan. En wat is dan een leukere besteding dan cashen. En je ziet natuurlijk hele leuke plekken.
Hierbij willen we alle CO's bedanken voor het leggen van de caches.
We are on holiday in New Zealand and we have a couple of day off in Auckland before we go on tour. So we went caching. We found several nice caches on beautiful places. We want to thanks all the CO's for placing this nice caches.

Out and about for a spot of caching in the hot afternoon sun. Nice quick find here. Cheers for the cache placement!
Nice to find a decent sized container. That area could do with having the lawn mowed though! TFTC
Beatifull spot, visited because I bought something of trademe and had to pick it up in the area, will do a few more now, TFTC
Back out to Whenuapai for another cache on a new day, and a lovely sunny day after all the rain yesterday. We made quite hard work of this, totally missing the most obvious hiding place for quite a while. TFTC
thank god for biggins.... camo needs a bit of a touch up/.. out using caches to dictate my walking route... this one does seem to be suffering from the common endoauqaosis however...?
Enjoyed today a long and exiting caching day out in Hobsonville with KiwifruitsNZ and Vamber.
Nice camo job on the container. TFTC

This cache formed part of a joint attack on the Hobsonville area by KiwifruitsNZ, Vamber and alpenmilch80.
An interesting cache container but a nice easy find.

Good little Cache, very quiet and nice views. Was a little water inside,which with all the rain we have had in AKL is no surprise. Dried it out best as I could and replaced back from where found.
This was a quick find and I've no idea why my previous attempt (many months back) resulted in a DNF. The only issues were the muggle repairing his wall to one side, and the builders on the other but neither of them were interested in my activity.
Dropped off the No Name Travel Bug Dog Tag. TFTC

This being another quick stop for an easy find. No no muggle around the search was easy enough.

An easy find on our morning walk. Kids liked the light sabre! Nice to find a bigger cache for a change.
A nice easy find in a secluded little reserve. Its always a bonus to find a good sized cache that has been well placed. Liked the camo design. TFTC.
Found orginally as part of phasevisitor team, now created own account, re-logging as yorkshirekiwi83.
In Whenuapai today, so took the opportunity to grab a couple of caches we haven't previously found.
Quick easy find of a nice big cache, although smacked my head on the back of a tree branch retrieving the cache! TFTC!

A number of years ago i did a stint at Number 5 SQN up the road, so brought back a few memories for me the area, TFTC
Got it juuust as the light was running out - The camp works well with the location , TFTC
Having a great day hunting. Much better session than the last time i went hunting
We were out for a little drive today, not the best caching weather, but we managed to jump out of the wagon and grab this one between showers. TFTC, Nice big cache, yeah....
Out for a few caches this afternoon with Mr Furbies despite the on and off showers. A nice easy start, TFTC
Crossed the very wet and muddy grass to GZ and searched the area as best I could without trying to get too muddy. However, I was unable to find the cache in the low light this evening. Will return when I'm next in the area.
