Great event to see some of the local geocachers! Thanks for organising Blondie & Baldie. Unfortunately my camera died so I only managed to get one blurry photo!

great idea, great fun, we should do it again!Thanks to Gencuster for jacking up the entertainment.

Great to meet everyone ,see you all when i get back from the states.Thanks for all the travel bugs,
i'll bring some different ones back with me
From Roaming Kiwi

Thanks blondie-n-baldie and GenCuster for organising the event - great idea. Good to know that if I ever see someone lurking around strange places looking completely dodgy...... its probably just another fellow Wellington Geocacher (although I will always look for the trademark GPS before introducing myself - just in case!!)

2.00pm. Great to meet some new Wellytown cachers, great venue. M tried all the beers on tap, all were great. Nice to see some different geocoins & plenty of tb's.
Thanks for all the effort to organise the event, and the placing of the temp caches, we had a ball.
Hope to see some of you guys & girls up our way sometime soon.

A truly excellent way to spend the afternoon. Well done BnB and special GenC for the great effort that went into organising it.
Great to meet some of the Welly fraternity and the Puds.
We must do this again :-}

What an awesome way to spend an afternoon! Thanks to everyone who turned up and made this such a great event! So nice to put a face to the alias' - reading the logs will never be the same!

A special thanks to GenCuster for the effort in organising the caches and also to The.Pud for bringing his fabulous geocoins for us to log! Thanks also to The.Pud and XMuggle for their extreme efforts given how far they travelled for the event - amazing!!!

Bon Voyage Roaming Kiwi - go well, enjoy the USA! Look forward to catching up on your return. Hope the bugs don't raise too many eyebrows at US customs!

Keep on caching everyone - heres to the next one!

Brilliant afternoon; beer, food, caching talk and a great bunch of cachers! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and look forward to the next one!

Thanks heaps to Blondie and Baldie, and GenCuster - awesome guys!!

Thanks for a great geocaching event and the friendliness shown by Wgtn geocachers . Nice to meet everyone. The puzzle caches were a challenge and thorougly enjoyable. What a great day, thanks to Blondie and Baldie and Gencuster for the event it was well worth the trip.

Well done B-n-B.

This was a great afternoon. Excellent delegation, by the way. LOL. I throughly enjoyed myself. Only sad bit? - I could not find my own caches... Was lots of fun making them and seeing people enjoy them tho.

And it was cool to meet some of the Wellington fraternity... Now I can place a name to a cache and/or a log.

Farewell Andy - 4 months is not long. You'll probably hit 200 before you return... And then how will we catch up?

Cheers, GenCuster

I dropped off [url=http://www.travelertags.com/index.php?option=com_travelview&func=details&tid=109531]GenCuster's 2006 Micro-Mini Geocoin (Traveler Tag #T1ABDB)[/url] here. Please log it and drop it back again afterwards. Email me if you don't have the tracking number.

Cheers,
GenCuster.

Dropping more geocoins

Dropping off TB: Mustang Sally...her first real event!

Dropping off my newest coin.

dropping some more TB's I picked up at the gathering last night.http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=9d89ec65-f392-44bd-b9bb-f8c7adc84c1d

I'd come if I wasn't moving house that day... :/

dropping some more coins

Hey everyone, not long now...looks like there will be a good turnout which is great news!

Just wanted to give those with young families a heads up and advise that the venue is the "Wellington Brewing Company" so it may not appeal to everyone. That said, we believe it to be very family friendly, with far more on offer than just Beer!

See you all next week - we look forward to meeting some new friends!

Dropping in a great new NZ geocoin from Hex-the-Kiwi in North Carolina for you to see and log.

Dropping some more coins.

Dropping off two TB's I picked up on my S.I. foray.

dropping a few geocoins in.

Just dropping off the youthgroup TB for andy to take with him.

Count me in..flights booked, looking forward to putting some more faces to names

We will be there in spirit! Would have loved to have met you all.

A great idea, Blondie n Baldie! Hopefully two of our team will be there. Dropped in Chocky Fish TB (not v big!)for Roaming Kiwi to take to the States, too. Thanks.

Ella & Ty

Just found out (to my utter annoyance) that the day of this meeting is on the very same day I will be at my brother's passing out parade so I will not be able to attend. Bugger.

Very Cool... Looking forward to meeting those who cache and those who are cached...

Count me in for one. And some Coins that people can 'grab' in their logs and Travel Bugs to swap...

Cheers,
Kevin aka GenCuster

Looking forward to meeting some local cachers and put faces to names. Count us in as 2 adults and a micro-cacher!

cheers

Jonno, Dawn and Jorja

I have put this in my diary. I'm looking forward to being there Prob just me, but will see if hubby would like to come too.

One, perhaps two would like to attend, but timing will be an issue. It has to fit between work and an evening commitment. A definite maybe... but here's hoping.

of course i'll be there

We'll try and make it down there from auckland.
Put us down for 2, i'll post a note closer to the date just to comfirm.

Unfortunately I will not be able to meet it as I will be returning from the UK that day Have fun

Put me down for 2 at present - great idea BTW.
