This one is a gonner - while working out where the cache could be hidden, I spotted a smashed film cannister and nearby, the logbook absolutely sodden and covered with mud.

#2245 Last time I was here I was on a potter around Seaview on my bike but there was a truckie right on GZ so I decided to leave it. Was on a reccy to see if this cache was here, after a conversation with another cacher and couldn't walk away without logging it. TFTC! Interesting spot!

#2244 I'm very appreciative of having some nearby traditionals for my dot day calendar gaps. Nipped up here after work to complete another hole in the grid. TFTC. Will return to complete the circuit on a day I'm not in jandals!

#2243 Haven't been out much lately but I have marked all my dot days in my diary in an attempt to fill up the grid and today happened to be one. Grateful for a new, easy find as it was getting close to bed time and the wind was making the experience quite wild. Carpark was open until 11 so I had a 25 min window to drive to the far end and make the find before getting locked in for the night. That would've sucked! Plenty of time to complete formalities and in bed before 11. Yus! TFTC!

#2238 Popped over the hill with Nic-jay for some Ingress and swung by a couple of caches that were unfound. Quick find here today, TFTC!
#2240 What *ow!* a *ow!* mission *ow!* to *ow!* access *ow!* this *ow!* cache!! Very *ow!* overgrown *ow!* here *ow!* which *ow!* added *ow!* to *ow!* the *ow!* challenge. GZ *ow!* itself *ow!* was *ow!* clear. TFTC!
#2241 Nabbed this on the way back from a trip over the hill with Nic-jay on our way past. Quick find. Will be back to explore the rest of the track another day. TFTC!
#2239 Popped over the hill with Nic-jay for some Ingress and swung by a couple of caches that were unfound. After meeting a locked gate at the listed entry, we decided to pop by the other way and despite the French Fair being on, we had no trouble accessing the cache in peace. Met a few horses as we walked past the stables, lovely. Amazing spot. TFTC!
No luck here although there is a new fence at GZ. Perhaps AWOL?

#2230 Out and about knocking off a few more Wellington caches while the weather is playing nice. Lyall Bay looked incredible today! Was happy to sit and watch the world go by for quite a few minutes after finding this cache. These spots are why I love caching so much! TFTC!
#2237 Out and about knocking off a few more Wellington caches while the weather is playing nice. One last cache before my battery died on the way to visit a friend. No hanky panky going on here today, just a cache waiting to be found. I had been here recently when I took a wrong turn (however not on the 24th and I don't drive a BMW!) and thought to myself it would be a good place for a cache although I didn't think to look. TFTC!
#2226 Out and about knocking off a few more Wellington caches while the weather is playing nice. Cute wee container and nice to see something a bit different. TFTC!
#2222 Think I logged this as the 27th, whoops. Pretty quiet here this morning. Muggles must be out of town for Easter. Makes for perfect caching adventures! Out and about knocking off a few more Wellington caches while the weather is playing nice. All safely tucked away. TFTC!
#2224 Out and about knocking off a few more Wellington caches while the weather is playing nice. The hill didn't bother me much at all thanks to taking up MTBing which has got me fitter! Cache found in good condition, nice camo. Enjoyed sitting in the sun enjoying the peaceful spot. TFTC!
#2235 Out and about knocking off a few more Wellington caches while the weather is playing nice. A nice stroll over from the SPCA to collect this one. Didn't take too long to find the cache even though I'm not entirely sure what the hint meant... I have my theories though TFTC!
#2232 Out and about knocking off a few more Wellington caches while the weather is playing nice. Glad to have finally got around to exploring this area- it's been on my to-do list for years and I just haven't got around to it. Lovely walk around the gardens collecting info and a quick find at the final. Thanks for pointing out a slice of NZ history and highlighting their incredible legacy. TFTC!
#2236 Out and about knocking off a few more Wellington caches while the weather is playing nice. Was signing the log when two 'muggles' walked past, however he then asked if I was geocaching so turns out they are ONE OF US! ONE OF US! I handed over the logbook and we had a chat next to GZ. Unfortunately the logbook was sodden. What a neat spot. TFTC!
#2231 Out and about knocking off a few more Wellington caches while the weather is playing nice. I'm getting better at facing my fears and trying things that challenge me so I was more than happy to clamber up to collect this cache. Was fun Quick find at the top and nobody about today. TFTC!
