My brother wasnt really excited about the "long, hard" walk he had to do... but he was happy for about 5 minutes when he was looking for the cache
TFTC unlike him I really enjoyed this walk

Designed by an Austrian ... of course the Austrians needed to go there!
Zenon vK honestly planned to do this cache about a year ago... and now finally we found it

Kind of obvious where it would be. Nice park here, we passed this memorial during quite a few runs we went for during our short stay here

We were about to give up as it was getting dark and mum was getting impatient. But as we were walking off Zenon suddenly held it in his hands.
Pretty well hidden, TFTC

Grr... I so regret not taking my camera! Not because the resurgence is so beautiful, no I've been here before and I just love jumping into the nice warm crystal pools. But today after heaps of rain the clear, still, blue waters have tunred into a whitewater waterfall and everything was flooded. I prefer it the other way, but it was amazing to see ...
TFTC, found it all alone in the pouring rain in this dark forest next to the flooded whitewater river ... quite scary actually, but I survived
I love this place, it's amazing!

Found after a short jog along the beach in the rain... probably my last walk in NZ's now officially most beautiful town
I love you Mot

Well.... I should probably get my eyes checked.
I spent ages looking here twice, without any succes. Must be a really hard one. But then why do all these people keep finding the cache easily? Hmm.
Then I got Clemrock and Zenon to come with me and as soon as they came close to gz they held it in their hands. Yup, I'm definitely blind.

Last time we couldn't find the numbers on the Doc sign and quickly gave up without even thinking about it. This time we just skipped the first stage and voila - there it was!
TFTC it's an awesome place, but why is the clearest freshwater called "pupu" ?

We were about to give up, jandals are clearly not the best type of clothing for this area and also the GPS pointed in the completetly wrong direction. Then finally, however, we gave it a last go on the other side - and there it was

When I unsuccessfully searched here some time ago I checked out this spot. So why wasting time checking it again this time?
Hmm ... after a long search I thought I might as well just have another look and there it was. How could I have been that blind?? [?]

Hmm ... at first the GPS pointed to a different spot with heaps of muggles right there. Bugger! But then the hints made us look somewhere else and it was exactly the right spot!

(when you speak German the cache name makes way more sense ... that's one good thing about being foreign )

Well, approaching from the non-beach-side would have been way easier and would have involved way less prickles ... but would it have been just as fun?

Another quick find on our way out of Nelson.
Poor mum had to impatiently wait in the car .. must be a hard life as the only family member who's not interested in random box searching

To be honest, we just turned up, quickly trespassed on private land to find the cache and drove off again. Maybe we should have read the information board... hmm ... nah

And Zenon v K of course had to visit the church for ages after we found the box within seconds. We really shouldn't take him to caches like that if we want to leave reasonably soon ...

I do not know wherefore thou art Horatio, but thou cache was right there ... I think my Shakespeare-language-attempt failed ...

This one turned out to be a race between Clemrock and Zenon v K to find the cache first. I just generously stood there with my GPS, pointed in the right direction and let them do all the hard, dirty work. Ah, life can be so easy ... (finding it yourself is way more fun though)

We couldn't wait for low tide so just went through the water ... and got quite a few prickles [B)]

One of the most awesome huts ever .. old and so home-like hehe.
TFTC, it was an amazing tramp!
And we even survived Whariwharangi's scary ghost

Great tramp and caching made it even better
And yes, we were the retarded people in the hut who put marmite all over their face, played scrabble and carried a random 2kg rock all through the park in their packs... TFTC

The start of the most amazing tramping trip ever, and caching made it even better.
And yes, we were the retarded people in the hut who put marmite in their faces, played scrabble and carried a 2kg rock all through the Abel Tasman in their packs... I think we're amazing =D

Nice place for a rest, since the random rock we took with us kind of got heavy ... hehe

I must have been blind all these other times I tried to find this one. Honestly, how could I have missed it?!

I could see the cache from miles away and tried to hide it a bit better ... Nice park

Well, we would have been way faster if we started searching on the other side ... Maybe the compass on my GPS is slightly wrong ... ^^

And another cemetery ... is there no cemetery without a cache on it these days? ...
Easy to find, thank you

Awesome location and hiding place, we had fun with this one. The swing kept making really scary noises though ...

At first I thought I made some mistake with the numbers (as I usually do) because the final was quite a bit away ... but then .. wow this area is really amazing ... and the name of the cache pretty much proved that we were right anyways ...
Thank you so much for showing us this awesome place, otherwise we would have never come here

I'm not sure where the answers for the last two questions are meant to be found, we couldn't find them, neither at the signs there nor in the Internet. But searching for the leading angle of these dunes taught me pretty much everything else about the spit ...
It was an awesome day here, thanks for the fast logging permission
