In Chch for a break, hadn't seen the memorial. Sobering but glad to pause here for a quiet moment. Thanks for bringing me here, and placing the cache.
Fun sitting on all corners Good hiding spot, we were lucky to pick a quiet day! Thanks for the hide!
Nice hide, and ended up explaining Geocaching to a different kind of explorer in the area - one with a metal detector, who often comes across geocachers in his travels. Fun times! Tftc!

Had to come back and try again, since others had located after we had previously DNF'd. Am sure we looked here last time, haha! Always happy to visit a lighthouse! Tftc, favourite awarded
15-Oct-22
Unfortunately have to agree with the last log, couldn't find the cache but found the obvious hiding spot. Also checked next step down as we weren't exactly sure we had the right number!
Was well worth the stop though, as we went out to the tunnel.

Interesting history. Had to tie shoelaces when neighbours drove past. Tftc
Lovely spot, wandered around a few times before locating a rather obvious spot! Then a conversation about what was minutes... Then winning when the other option had us swimming quite a way out!
Lovely view from the seat. Tftc and nice memory of June Opie!

Wow, what an amazing place! Could get right up to explore. Gorgeous little stream, and yes very picturesque. Had a chat with a few cows, but they ran away in the end (our conversation skills were obviously lacking). Thanks so much for bringing us here!
What a gorgeous little church, beautiful stained glass windows. Never knew this was here. Woke up the dog over the road (oops). Tftc

Interesting spot, it's a fascinating history around here. Perfectly created cache, lovely and dry. Thanks for putting it here.
Wow, what an awesome Walkway! We spent about an hour going through the displays! Thanks heaps for bringing us here!. Giving an FP
Nixe spot. Log a little damp. Now to shop at the general store. Love this area. Tftc

Sorry to add that we couldn't find the cache either. But this attempt was far nicer than last time,as it wasn't raining so we were able to explore more.
12-Oct-22
Lovely little spot. Never knew the history of the river. Really like the concept of barging the planes too. Tftc
05-Oct-22
I love all the gardens here, and they change each time I get up here. But my favourite is always the Italian one.
(forgot it was school holidays when I came, but luckily most of the kids preferred other gardens, so I could still sit here peacefully and listen to the water and birds)
Thanks for placing a virtual here.

Did the same circles that others seem to have done. Was getting nervous because I'm never sure around pipes (and what is real and what isn't!). Put geocaching senses on, and it became easy. Dropped off a TB.
Very cool tower!

Nice Park! Great idea on the cache holder. As earlier log said, lid is missing. Surprisingly the log was only a little damp considering the rain we've had. Thanks for bringing us here.

What a gorgeous little church! I'm here at the wrong time of day as I bet the stained glass windows look fabulous in the sun! Tftc

Fascinating history and a lovely cemetery to wander around. Retrieved the cache successfully (tip one side of the board has larger print ) then spent another good hour wandering around. Tftc

Had to drive around town as it was pouring with rain. Hard to pick a favourite, and found even more delightful ones on our way out!
But we voted and picked the jigsaw.
Thanks for bringing us here, was a great giggle shouting out whenever we saw one!

So glad to turn this into a smiley. Love this bridge. Lots of fantails flitting about this morning
Incredibly high waters have come through here, we couldn't find the cache either. Might be time for a quick check by CO?
Awesome history with this bridge though, so thanks heaps for bringing us here!

Thought we may have seen more water here after yesterday's downpour. Had to stop hunting a couple of times as muggles rolled in for a look. Then it was like the sun shone right onto it!
Love this place, thanks for placing one here
