End of the line for Princess Moonlight (Nelson) Brooklands, South Island, New Zealand
By radarsparkie on 25-May-05. Waypoint GCP0J5

Thanks to the previous finder for proving this one is still out there! It's actually not too hard to find at GZ but it turns out my GZ was slightly off, argh! Back today and could claim the find, finally, tftc!Happy to help others who are stuck with this one.

To reviewer: looks like this one has popped up after all! Will give it another try myself as well soon. No need to archive yet, thanks!

Harder find but found it!! Thanks for the great geocache!

No cache in place anymore. No owner maintenance done. This oldie unfortunately has to go...

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Fun puzzle but the final is quite far away. Finally had the time today to search for this one but unfortunately also a DNF for us. Could the CO check up on this one please? Thanks!

I feel like it's the right area but not a no dogs sign and people walking their dogs through cemetery. Second time looking for this

Even though there were two possibilities for one of the numbers, I'm sure I got to the right final coords based on it fitting the hint so well. I found a very likely spot for the cache along with a SPOR, but no cache.
I'm going to watch this one in case someone else finds it, or if the CO verifies it is there.

Interesting multi that has taken ages to complete. While finding and signing a couple of puzzled muggles passed by. Tftc

enjoyed the lovely walk from Nelson Central to and around the Moonlights final resting place. Had to return later with the car to collect the last clue and the final. TFTC

Nice find

Had a lovely late afternoon at cable bay while paddle chick and sir belsc went for a swim and got a few caches .Tftc radarsparkie

Great end for a multi good find shellsadventure. tftc we left a swap.. had to time it right between wandering muggles.

Such Fun out doing this one with missnboyz. The search for the Waypoints took us a while until we had likely co - ordinates. Out today to find the last bits of information and the Cache. Excellent clues, well placed and a delight to complete. TFTC

SJT_NZ was flying in early afternoon and had some lieu owing so I joined him for an afternoon of tackling some caches at the outer regions. We'd solved this some time ago and had several visits out to GZ with no luck. Thanks to some superb help from a recent finder we got to where we needed to. Just one little typo can have you going round in circles. Thanks radarsparki for a really interesting jolly around the waypoints to provide some interesting local history. Cache all in good order.

Tregearp and I solved this yonks ago but had some difficulty which we later corrected but had not been back to the GZ. Today we had a couple of hours between getting off a flight and attending an Event cache in town and so used the time to come out and complete the logging of this cache and find a couple of others out East of Nelson. Thanks radarsparkie for the cache.

Found while caching with ABL973. Thanks radarsparkie

This has been a bit of a mission but with the resolved GZ completed it was just a matter of time of when to go find the cache. That was a few weeks ago and unfortunately it was a zero for a find so I tried a PAF and confirmed I was in the right place. Fast forward to today and it's round 2 with Princess Moonlight but again no luck. Despondent I collected by stuff and turned to leave. It was at this moment that I spotted something with the sunlight hitting it at this perfect angle some metres away. I thought I've searched there ... obviously not well enough! Covered by half a metre length grass I found the cache tucked into its hidey hole but it was the unnaturally piled rocks that gave it away. Am I happy? Hell yeah! Thanks radarsparkie, beautiful day out here.

Had the first stage son this multi sorted a few years ago but only today at the required final waypoint and put things together and cache quickly in hand. Nice bit of CO maintenance also. Fills another of my D/T list. Thanks for the cache.

We are heading home but time enough to try for Princess Moonlight at Cable bay. We meet up with Ricardino at Hira and head to Cable Bay having already checked out the cemetery for Princess Moonlight. Get toCable bay and discover I have left said notebook in Toby. Bugger. The guys start to crunch numbers with a likely place. But we head back to Hira to confirm. But the figures still dont match up. Recrunch the numbers and come up with a likely place and head back to Cable Bay. Park up and head up the hill for Ricardino to make quick work of snagging this one. Cheers
The Seagnoid, Zara, Toby and I are off on another geotrip to Nelson. We are on the hunt for points for the Carnival season so targeting the best caches Nelson has to offer. Zara is keeping the neighbours company while we zip around with Toby.

This cache was not on my radar this weekend (excuse the pun sorry CO ) until the Seagnoid mentioned he had done some groundwork and would I be interested in helping with the endgame? Yep, up for that, so we planned to meet up before leaving Nelson for Blenheim. This is where things went a bit strange.
We convened then carpooled to the final waypoint to find we had left all the previous info back in a notebook on the main road. Ok, at least we will get the figures here, let’s do another day.
Reconvening back on the main road we did the sums to find out there were still errors. Ok, if we change this one number we move from the sea to a very promising spot - so let’s go for it. A total backtrack, but the hunch was correct and it was a quick find, and if it still went pear-shaped at least a good story. TFTC radarsparkie, the cache is in good shape.

This weekend was a planned trip to Nelson that we organised a couple of months back.
My niece was competing in the S.I secondary schools athletics meet at Saxton, (quite successfully as it turned out), and as my brother had organised a house in Tahunanui for 4 days I had a base for a good weekend.
So I took the Friday off work, getting into Nelson while it was still dark in the morning to start a big day targeting highly favoured caches and anything else that took my fancy. Once reaching most of my goals and catching up with the tribe later that afternoon the weekend took a different slant, and it was all about the athletics, catching up and chilling out for most of the next two days.
Jo popped over on Sunday, and after the relays finished we just had time to make the Mapua event in the afternoon, then I grabbed a few more caches on the way home. A great weekend in so many ways, with Nelson turning on some great weather.
Thanks to all the COs, found some good ones

I have been eyeing up this cache for a while now. And this weekend seemed to be a good time, so we came to explore the graveyard.
Fairly straightforward. That was Friday night, I think. And then it... sort of went to custard.Sunday, heading home. Taybeedragon Ricardinho and I parked up at the weigh bridge on the main road to change cars. Lets take Ricardinho's car, rather than all squeeze into Toby. I know Taybeedragon changed noteboooks over the weekend, so I send her into Zara to pick up the notebook with the graveyard figures, and then we pile into Ricardinho's car and drive down. At the waypoint we find... the dragon had grabbed the wrong notebook!! Oh well. WE get the figure anyway, and plan to come back later sometime. Back at Zara we work out the final location. In the sea. But Ricardinho works out that if we change one digit by a couple he gets a sensible place. I take a look - yeah, that's a goer. So the heck with it - we pile into the car again and head back down there. An easy find at GZ.

I don't get this cache. There are six elements to this cache - the four waypoints, the final location, and the cache itself, and there is nothing that ties them all together. It just seems to be random bits. I don't understand.

With the latest Groundspeak promotion, Cache Carnival, I loaded my GPS with a pocket query containing all caches with 10 favourites or more between Nelson and Motueka. Over 1000 carnival points, should be enough to get me to 500 and the Grand Poobah souvenir; Rio de Janeiro. Except that I forgot the other aspect of the game, and I started this trip with 350 points, achieved while sitting on my arse, doing nothing. Taybeedragon has bet that I can get to 500 without finding a single cache, simply due to others placing favourites on my caches.
So anyway here we are, Taybeedragon and I, targeting better-than-average caches.
Took only 8 cache finds to get to 500 points. Yet to see if I could have done it with no finds at all...

In town for the weekend for a family wedding, and not much time for caching, so I focused on a few specific D/T combinations. I started with this one on Sunday morning, and did the few close way points. This afternoon, I headed out to the far WP, and then GZ. Quickly found. TFTC.

Dancing Queen 25252 and myself are on a 4-weeks-geocaching-tour in New Zealand with additional 4 stopovers. Many thanks for the cache and best regards from two German geocachers. Very interesting, therefore I leave a star here.

We made a short break today on our tour from Havelock to Nelson at the Cable Bay. A very nice place. We used the break to check what caches we want to do in Nelson. This Multi was on the short list. After reading the Listing we were happy to have one WP in walking distance. As we read the logs, we decided to take the opportunity to find the box. After a short search we had the logbook in hands . We were very happy about that. We visited also the cemetery in Nelson for a quick look. Thanks for the cache!

This is a cache we require for our D/T grid so we headed off today to get the required information to make the find.

A few clues on the cache page helped us in some places as we recognised local names, but I didn't realise we had a prince and princess buried at this cemetary. Made our way past all the dog walkers to WP1 and got our answers easily. Made our way further around the road to WP2 and spotted the headstone easily as this was a familiar name. I think my great-grandfather is buried nearby, but didn't see anything today. We carried on round to WP3 and I almost got caught out by the wording until Andy pointed something out and I realised what it actually said. The headstones seem to have gotten a lot more dilapidated since my last visit (over 20 years ago).

Anyway, with the answers gained from WP3 we headed off to the final WP and quickly grabbed the required answers from there before parking up and working out the final co-ords. A short walk to GZ and the cache was found and log signed. tftc

Triumph !
I never feel confident that the numbers will align & the cache will appear - today, to my surprise, everything worked out.
I started at the Cemetery a few days ago and today was a great day to be out at the beach to get the last lot of info.
Thanks for this Multi, radarsparkle.

Started the day here getting some of the info and a recent photo held more useful information. After working out where the final was to be we headed there before returning home. Took me a few minutes of searching before the got it moment and success. T F T M and C radarsparkie

mrs capperz has headed across the Cook Strait to visit our North Island family and I don't have enough leave to be able to go along too, stink. So, for this 3 day long weekend it's just me and (former) nightowl19 keeping up the Marlborough end of the deal. I decided a three prong attack would be the deal for this weekend; 'Nelson' (and surrounds) on Saturday, French Pass/Bulwer on Sunday and Northbank on Monday. And so it was. I managed a respectful 31 caches on the Saturday and headed over the hill at a decent time (much to miss 15's disgust) but we had a couple of nice walks in the Nelson sunshine and found some cool caches, including a mighty 6 Multi caches.

Came to do this one today, we have never visited the area before, did have to wonder how they would get on if there was a large group of people wanting to attend a burial with the skinny little roads with limited parking opportunities - we are sure they managed but it did have us wondering how. Gathered the required info then headed out towards the final GZ. On the way we stopped to see some vintage cars that were doing some off roading courses - it had been raining so their courses were pretty slippery. Anyway we were soon at GZ and a quick find then time to sit and have a cuppa and watch a couple of kayaks out in the bay. Really enjoyed this experience tftc

Have been aiming to do this one for awhile so today was the day. Enjoyed the cache

On a previous trip in 2013, we had done the Cemetery waypoints, and got as far as unsuccessfully looking for the cache at GZ. Unfortunately we had not kept GSAK notes of any of that information, so had to restart from the beginning this morning. Walked through the Cemetery finding the relevant people and getting a refresher on how all the elements of this interesting multi come together. Drove out to Cable Bay, and walked to GZ. This time one of us took a slightly different approach to looking for the cache, and almost immediately spied the container. Very pleased to be able to sign this one off. Thanks.

A wonderful way to find interesting snippets of information about the area. As visitors from UK we would not have visited Cable Bay but it's a lovely spot with a delightful cafe and a walk with views (and caches).

Nice dive out to that final location of the Cache and found a few on the way. TFTC

Started this one ages ago, but it took an afternoon outing with StickmanNZ to finally complete it, TFTC.

I finally reached the end of the line with this multi today, having got the details from the first couple of WPs several months ago, I made the effort to head off to the third WP and get the final missing numbers.

Sitting in the sun to plot the final coordinates I was pleased to see that the final location was quite close and also quite close to another cache on my hit list today.

Although there was no one around to spoil my search I needed the hint to confirm I was looking in the right direction and once I confirmed I was I then spotted a couple of objects that looked a little out of place and sure enough, having moved them to one side I had the cache grabbed.

Despite my taking to long to solve it, it was a really enjoyable multi - partly because I enjoy nosing around graveyards, partly because it fills a gap in our D/T table and partly because it takes you to a favourite part of Nelson of mine.

Thanks to the CO for taking the time to get this set up way back when.

First trip away for the year and it had to be down to Wellington & Nelson to see customers and do a spot of Rep training. Arrived first thing this morning and it was straight over to Blenheim and back to this side of the hill for client meetings with the rep (and lots of coffee).

As I am working on my DT Grid this came up as one that I needed and so while in the area it was high on the importance to find stakes. So as soon as I could escape from work for the day it was to collect this one and then head further afield to collect others. Not a lot of caches collected but some very interesting DT Combinations

I very much enjoyed this cache and the history lesson that went along with it

Thanks for the placement

#8515. This one has been a bit of a marathon (hampered by poor record keeping). Good to complete our quest today. Nice views from GZ. TFTC.

We had found the initial information at the cemetery quite some time ago when we were visiting Nelson, but had no time for the final WP and lost the information.
Returned earlier this year after shifting into the area and retrieved the info, but this time, recorded it more carefully. Today we decided to make our first visit to Cable Bay, and finally complete the multi. Didn't take long to work out the final co-ords and and soon we were at GZ, and had found the cache. Great spot for the final. Had to tip water out of the container, and rescued the TB which has languished there for several months. It was a little worse for wear, as the chain has rusted through.
Thanks for a very interesting multi, most enjoyable and great to get the smiley at last. TFTC.

This was one of the most epic weeks ever, and definitely my most epic caching week ever.

Me and mum headed up on a holiday north to Nelson and very wider surrounds. In total during the trip, we found almost 500 caches! (470 odd I think, but final results are yet to be in! ) We covered about 3000 odd km I think too. Crazy! And had our absolute best caching day ever too at 160 found. Spend 9 days travelling, caching, and having the best time ever!!

So sorry about not so epic logs, as otherwise this would probably take me the rest of my life to log, especially with two big events to organise coming up! Eeek!!

Almost every single log we signed as 'Team Polak' to avoid needing to write out both usernames taking up space on logsheet - as well as precious caching time!! Haha.

Spent almost the whole day doing this cache! - As well as a few others on the way.
Waypoints were mostly found easily enough, and turns out I managed to work everything out correct first time tooo!! Yay!

Consec caching day # 705

TFTC!!

For the sake of sanity we set off with sonia26642 for a crazy geocaching trip, aiming to cache until we drop. The main destination was Nelson and the ‘surrounding’ area, but then we ended up covering a few miles in three northernmost regions, plus a few in Canterbury. We were signing/stamping the log as 'Team Polak' or ‘TP’ for the two of us on this trip to save logbook space. We found a lot of different caches, city ones, road side, park side, up a hill and on an island, and we enjoyed every single one of them. It was good to be a professional thingfinder for a few days!

It was amazing to find this cache!!! We had a lot of fun going around the waypoints.

We had great fun and are grateful to all CO’s who placed caches for us to find, and help restore our sanity before returning to our other non-geocaching lives!!

Come and join us the next New Zealand geocaching MEGA event!! Register your interest now at www.nzmega2015.com to receive newsletter updates and be the first to know. It will be a great event, come and be a part of it!!

What fun! I kept getting side-tracked by interesting headstones, but eventually we found our way around the clues. We got waylaid by some Aussies looking for a great grandfather's grave before we completed the search and that was when the mosquitoes attacked! So glad to get away and complete the search. We topped off the morning with a lovely lunch out and a scenic walk, TFTC

We found ourselves in Nelson rather unexpectedly this morning and having completed the errand said "what now" - - - why, coffee of course - - - and maybe lunch. I did some really quick thinking and next thing we were scrambling round in the cemetery searching for answers. Thence followed a really nice lunch and a visit to GZ. All really interesting. TFTC

Easily found on a day out caching in the region with Waiiti20. Enjoyed completing this one, and the drive to an area I had not been before. TFTC

Was keen to collect this one given it's age and historical information. Enjoyed collecting the required info in a very old historic area, as well as completing the paperwork at GZ, another area I had not been to. TFTC, #6117

Started back in August 2012 but never got around to making a trip to Cable Bay to complete the job. Camping out here for a club xmas get together and far to windy to go kayaking so went for a "walk" instead. Quick find. I can't remember the finer details of the first part but do remember i enjoyed it. TFTC for an enjoyable and interesting cache

We came over from our holiday home in Motueka to do this cache and loved it! We could have spent all day in the cemetary and the final location was awesome! Thanks you so much for all the effort in making this multi.
Greetings from Greece!

After a wonderful time meeting local cachers at the Winter Waffle event we headed off to do Zig Zag (GC206RE) which we were told was a clever hide .. However, one look at the hill our waffle & coffee/juice filled bodies would have to get up and we quickly agreed we'd save it for another day lol .. So then my mind switched to cemetery caches as that too had come up in conversation, and I'm so glad it did as I Absolutely Love this cemetery!

Still a bit of a slog to get all the info needed for the final co-ordinates, but done at a leisurely pace with lots of pausing to read tomb stones or just take in the view, and it was simply a gorgeous place to spend time on a sunny Sunday afternoon .. Honestly I could spend a whole day exploring this place!

Definitely deserving of a fav .. Thanks for bringing me up here radarsparkie

It's a gorgeous winter day in Nelson (15ºC) so Daughter, Friend and I set out to learn the story of Princess Moonlight and how she met her fate. Absolutely brilliant multi and a couple of spectacular vistas. That's now 2 favourites that are multi-caches originating in Wakapuaka Cemetery.

Dropped off some well overdue TBs as well.

Well I gathered all the info and entered the coordinates into the GPS which said I was to head out into the middle of the bay!! No, something's wrong here, hmmm. Recalculated and checked my numbers and after a few fails and many metres walked, I gave up. Came back today and used the hint instead of the coordinates and there it was. Somehow I had Cecil's Date of Death wrong.. oh dear how one wrong number can wreak havoc!! Great to get this one done, it has been on the to-do list for nearly 2 years now!! And great to have a D4.5 checked off the list, TFTC!!!!

First part of the puzzle completed a few days ago and today we made the trip to solve the second part and find the cache. A bit trickier than expected. We had to wander on a bit further while some muggles passed, sit and enjoy the view and return for another search. Got it!! Nice hide.
A favourite for me. I enjoyed the walk through the cemetery and it was our first visit to Cable Bay. TFTC

Heading out of Nelson this morning and couldn't resist stopping here for a wander around the cemetery. You could spend a long time in here looking at the historical graves. Hadn't realised that the final waypoint was out of town but we were heading north anyway so finished it off. Hadn't been out there before so that was an added bonus.
Most enjoyable multi.
Many thanks

Finally got round to doing this multi. Thanks for taking me to a peaceful, historic place. The final cache location also serves as a reminder that we live in a beautiful part of the world. I really enjoyed solving this one and am going to award a well deserved favourite. TFTC!!

We pushed our bikes up the old access road and enjoyed wandering around looking for the required information before cycling out the present road. At the other location the find was quickly made.
+ a marble, - nothing.

What an awesome Multi. I have so enjoyed doing this one and am pleased to now get the final sign off on a cache raid to Cable Bay. Thanks so much for settingf this one up and certainly deserves a Favourite . TFTC

We guessed where this multi was going to finish so decided to make the most of the day and pack a thermos and snacks as well as the GPS It was an enjoyable wander getting the required info then a nice drive to the final. Plenty of people enjoying the day with various activities but cache was found without any muggles in sight. TFTC.

Today was earmarked to wind down after celebrating graduating for MGSc yesterday What better way than to do a multi and see where it takes you. So thermos and goodie bag were fully loaded. I never visited this cemetery and was pleasantly surprised by its expanse and the huge chunk of Nelson history to be found here. After gathering the required info away we went to gather yet some more. Then it was time to relax a while with coffee and snacks while enjoying the day becoming brighter and more pleasant. Plenty of peeps having a picnic and more than just a few paddlers. With the walk closed because of lambing some apprehension crept in. There was no need for that as the cache was soon in hand and log signed. A great caching experience! Thanks

Great sense of achievement to complete this. We stopped on our first visit when we realised the final was so far out of town. Came back today to complete it. We really enjoyed the construction and the final was great - sunshine - people having picnics on the beach - and us with a cache in hand . TNLN. TFTC.

Enjoyed gathering info about 18mths ago, finally remembered to take the coords with me on way for a paddle. Always enjoy visiting older caches.

Great fun on a sunny Sunday afternoon. TFTC

I did the trip around the first three waypoints about three years ago. The time finally came on a perfect day to do it again followed by the second half.
Great classic multi thank you. 2005. It's lasted well, from a time when all caches were well thought out and challenging. Cache and log still in good condition.
TFTC

I feel like this is the second or third time that I have gathered the required information for this cache, but never logging it. Finally got out to cable bay and cleaned up all the caches out that way.

Found over two days. A beautiful morning in the bay.
TFTC

Worked out the final for this yesterday, then took the drive today to collect.

Don't remember ever being to cable bay before....thanks for bringing us here. The cemetery was cool too...Easy find when we got there. Wee dudes enjoyed searching for crabs on the beach...

Printed this and gathered all the info at Nelson ages ago. trundled out to CB to complete, ended with funny coords, and too many people around for a random search. I see now, the cache page is some what different to what I had ! I will return.!

Spotted this one and thought it would be great for our 4.5d challenge cache. Lucky we didnt take 4-5 years to do it other wise we couldnt use it.End point was nice only been there once before.Will bring a pinic out here next time and do some of the other caches in the area tftc

This is another cache we started ages ago but then lost all the information so had to redo. Sat on our bugbear list for too long so today we solved it by doing the cache finally. Enjoyed the views each time we did this cache so it was good to finally completing the cache today TFTC

It is said that good things come to those that wait - lol am not sure they mean 4-5 years to complete a cache !!!! Finally we had several to do in this area and as luck would have several to do at this caches end point Love the views from the first waypoint so it was no chore to revisit to redo the clues - great views and nice warm day at the end point too thanks for taking us on this journey but am glad to finally cross this off our to do list signed log thanks for the cache

picked this one up 8:30am. no one else in sight. tftc

Thanks to comments from Dafran have edited the clues and corrected some errors in the text. All should be well now.

Second bike ride out here, at least it wasn't so windy. Gave up on my final coord's and went off the clue. Easy find then.

Entertaining way to kill a few hours. TFTC

Fantastic cache hunting expedition, great afternoon out!!!

Really intriguing and enjoyable, very adventurous Thanks

This is a must do for a bit of history and an icecream towards the end TFTC

Quick find using the clue.

Took us a fair bit of time to find the clues, but really enjoyed finding them, observed by the periodic detention boys whom we passed several times! Were a bit "off" with our final coordinates (feeling especially thick, as a 7 year old found it on the last log with no problem ) and were hampered by torrential rain, so will have to try again another day.

We really enjoyed this one. It was a great history lesson, and a lesson in carefully reading instructions and interpreting them correctly. Miss Beanso(7) found the cache which made it 4 our of 4 to her for the day !!! TFTC

I tried this one a while ago and ended up with coordinates that sent me out to sea. Tried collecting the clues again yesterday and finished it off this morning. I seem to have managed to get the same result?? Anyway, using the clue rather than the coordinates managed to find the cache OK. Really wonder what I did wrong with this one. TFTC, Anyway, Biggles.

Found today despite muggles best efforts to prevent me!

Picked up coin that has been inactive for so long!
Cache in great condition.

What a fantastic multi. I enjoyed every step of the way. Collected the first lot of info a few weeks ago then finished it off today on my way to Cable Bay to do the caches there. TFTC + breast cancer coin

Been meaning to knock this one off for quite a while now. Since I was driving home in this direction I decided to make the effort to do it. For some reason I really stuffed up the final coords, went for a bit of a walk, discovered they were wrong, but in conjunction with the hint was able to find the cache on the way back to the car. The bay looked very nice today. Cheers Gav [3417]

Wow! I am glad to be able to finally log this one!!!!!

Almost a month since I started this one with frank.fencepost, finished it off myself today.

Thanks for sharing some of the history of the area with me, certainly things I wouldn't have discovered if not for undertaking this multi.

I am really glad I have finished it before leaving Nelson!!!!

TNLNSL TFTC

our last big one for the year 2008 we had a lot of fun finding the clues and absorbing the info. loved the challenge TFTC

Due to a change in the nearby landscape, continual damage from the sea and increased popularity of the site I have changed the cache location. The new location should be free from sea damage now, and not quite so public.

The Cache was apparently washed away in the recent storm and there have also been excavations near the site by DOC (building a public toilet). Have decided to relocate and reconstruct the cache over the next month. watch this space!

I liked like every waypoint revealed a little where the cache get its name.
When I came to last waypoint I continued a little further just in time to take some interesting photos of sunset. Then I went back to waypoint and found out that I was taking pictures few metres from the cache [:o)]
TFTC

Started this one a few months ago, nice to finish it. There are some big waves today.

I started this cache about 2 years ago but realised I had made a mistake as co-ords didn't look right. Took me all that time to recheck wps. Found the problem quickly and the cache. dried and cleaned out small amount of moisture and dirt from container. All good. Finally.

Good to finally be out near the final spot to finish this one that we started a month or two ago. TFTC.

Nice multi after a walk around a huge Cemetery. I was horrified to watch periodic detention workers(?) scraping lichen off tombstones with plasters tools. They were tidying up. Sweeping was good, but the scraping was a worry.

Enjoyed doing this one, we both like the historical aspects that some of these caches bring up. We gathered the necessary information at the first location, and on returning to the car read the information board that happened to point out that Thomas Brunner was buried in the cemetary. With our links to the West Coast, we thought that was worth checking out. We then proceeded back to where we'd been to find the gave site! We then headed out to the final location later on, and completed the cache. It was an interesting area to visit, somewhere new for both of us. TNLN, TFTC.

Find No. 200 for Beltfamily! We started this some weeks ago, but didn't do the drive to finish - saved it for our 200th in honour of the history that went with the cache - an easy find but unfortunately cache was open & contents wet, although the log book was nice & dry. Dried as best we could, and rehid carefully so hopefully will stay muggle free. TFTC

Started this one last weekend but luckily didnt try to finish it. Didnt realise it had been removed for maintenance.
First find with new container and log book. Great spot. Lots of surfers out today.
TNLN

Back in service again with new container and logbook about 3.30pm 30/6/07 just in time for kwaka40 to find. Well done mate.

Removed for maintenance, should be back by next week end 30th June.

A thoroughly interesting cache! Spent quite a while in this place to have a good look around. Read the information board first and this helped! Did get one digit wrong however and ended right on the beach, heaps of big stones, but no bushes. Write down all the dates fortunately when collecting clues and new coörds indicated the bush. Like ADV mentioned, the logbook is soaked and cannot be used anymore; also used a piece of paper like they did. Will post some photographs soon.
Thanks very much for this delighful historical cache.
