Decided to not renew this cache. The circumstances are not suitable. Thank you one and all for your visits to this micro when it was available. Happy Caching

We did not have the palm pilot with us so did not realise it was missing until later. However, there appears to be a few good hiding places so Scoop81 and TreMichlan hope it is reinstated soon.

Had already left home and no computer access so did not know it was not there. However, the location was pretty well destroyed so we guessed the cache was no longer present.

Another one bites the dust...!!!!! [:(!] We went to check on this cache this evening, and could not find it ourselves. The area was in complete disarray. Looked like someone had used the hidey hole for a step to clamber up the Wattle Tree. Oh well..... we will have to re-think this one and place another cache soon within the same vicinity as it proved to be a popular 'passing-by' cache.

Had a good look, dislodged a few sticks etc, to no avail : (

went to the rest area and looked around but couldn't find it.

Thought this one would be easy going by the previous logs, but not to be. Referred to the clue and looked around in the obvious spots but couldn’t find it, was on a mission to get some accommodation in Masterton before the Motels closed up for the night. Will be back to try again later.

1617. This was a quick find as it was raining and very cold with a stiff wind.

Thanks

Gee that was an easy one. So, thought I'd make it a Miki Miki duo. Ha! No such luck.

[Almost didn't get this one (had forgotten what ]wattle[ looks like, especially when ]not in flower[!), but was rescued again by my sharp-eyed 7 year old!

Had intended to leave a travel bug here, but that was before I realised it was a micro-cache!]

First visit of the day found too many muggles. Returned later for an easy find

Was planning on finding this one last night but as i pulled up in the rest area at about 10.30pm ish muggles had parked up for the night,so as not to arouse suspision I did the same,When i woke in the morning at 7.15am with a helecopter flying over head ,the other car had gone and I had free rain again to find the cache.nice and easy
Nice sunny summers morning in the country side ,what could be better;)
Another piece of history;)thanks for the stop

Good find. A reason to stop at a place you normally speed pass.

Quick find. Pretty good hide I thought. Many thanks.

Easy find in a muggle infested spot. Much stealth required. TNLN SL TFTC.

Out with two geo-muggles for the day on a motorbike trip through the Wairarapa - introducing them to geo-caching. Easy find. TNLNSL. Hello again Early Rizers!

Always love to stop when we are traveling to learn more about the area. These kinds of caches are great - easy finds, historical and interesting.

Another quick find...after we'd taken a wrong turning, the navigator was just trying to lead us up the garden path! Nice little rest area but didn't have time to rest today!
TNLN. Thanks.

VERY TRICKEY LITTLE ONE! Thanks

Number 103. Getting the time to log all my South Island caches. TNLN. This cache was found almost by accident --we decided to pull over to the rest area to actually take a rest (what a concept) and then it turns out there is a cache here! The cache was a bit exposed so we covered it up with some "geo sticks" (you know the kind you see covering caches all over the world)

0Paco0, Red and their dogs found it.

Well Crispy Twitch and Boots, this time WE were the people taking their dogs for a walk. Muggle decided to stay and have lunch just after we found the cache. So before we could return it, we walked the dogs up and down until it was safe to put the cache away again. It's great to see how well our dogs behave so close to the road!

Did some cleaning up around the rubbish bin - wouldn't sign any of the motorist who stopped here up for a basketball team: 2 items in the bin, about 20 around it!

As long as you drive fast enough, New Zealand looks quite clean - but when you stop...

- nothing
+ 5 cent coin (if you're lucky, it'll be worth a lot in a while.)

Thanks Pipi and Kina

Another History lesson for us.
Good one guys!

Weather was closing in a bit as we got to this one, but that didn't stop a muggle from hanging around to air his dogs.
Our patented Muggle Distraction Technique eventually paid off however, and we were free to find the cache in the first spot we looked
Managed to add a hairpin to the goodies (took nothing though)

7th cache of the day.
Quick and easy, after visiting Pipi and Kina themselves!

Cheers,
Blarghster.

Stopped to do this cache on our way from Rotorua to Napier. A nice little stop and an easy find. Had to take the balloon so I could close the container.

Another good hide.
