This is really an old and very big box ! It's great to visit an old cache on our way to the beaches. We made some swaps : we took a GC and a pathtags and put a GC in (chaosmanor's Puffin' my way to the next cache - nickel). Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France ! 
 
I tapped, I tapped but I couldn't find it !

For a french guy who likes rugby, this cache must be done! Even it's the stadium of two losses in world cup final! But I likes the All Blacks, so it's OK!

# 1st of 11 of my today run'n cache !

We are in a hotel nearby for our last 3 days in New Zeland to visit Auckland and I spent the early morning for a cache'n run part of the power trail ! 1st impression : you're right ! It's not the best part of Auckland and what a smell (hope I won't keep it in mind as a souvenir !). The 1st one was the most difficult to find (and the 9th which ended up in a DNF) and after the container are the same in different location.

We spend three days in Auckland for the end of our trip in NZ. The Moutain of Eden is a very nice place and we can see a very nice view of the center of town! 
 
Found while our three days in Auckland.

What a welcoming in Auckland ! The weather was clear although we had heavy rains all our way from Rotorua ! We enjoyed the views all around. Thank you for the cache / merci pour la cache ! Greetings from France ! 
 
Coming from Rotorua under heavy rains, the sun welcomed us in Auckland so we aimed to One Tree Hill to have a look around ! This cache was great and we loved the words written with stones ! Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France !

It was a bad day today : we didn't find this one as well ! 
 
Found it today but the information board wasn't accessible today : the pool was smoking too much I think. So strange to be in town and to see and smell that. Really great ! Thank you for the cache / merci pour la cache. Greetings from France ! 
 
We went there on our way to Rotorua. Very quiet around with not many tourists but very loudy in the river. It was impressive ! Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France ! 
 
What a shame we have already enjoyed a bath and we were running of time ! But it was great place to discover ! Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France ! 
 
 
On our way on the Thermal Explorer Highway, we stopped for this cache ! Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France ! 
 
A lot of trees cutting have been done around GZ. Could'nt find it ! Maybe a check is needed ! 
 
Didn't spot the cache ! 
 
We did this cache in the hurry not to miss the dam's gates opening scheduled at 12.00 and we were finally on time ! And guess what ? No water came through the damned dam Wink. Anyway, it's worth the effort because the stroll was nice. Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France ! 
 
No luck today : no find and the view was not available due to very cloudy lake ! 
 
I learned stuff today with this earth. It was great the research on the web. Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France ! It's a favourite for me. 
 
First of all : this Earth gets a favourite for me. So nice to have a bath there : we tried so you can say ! Without geocaching we won't have enjoyed this place : it wasn't on our tourist guide ! It was great ! Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France !

Found it on our way to the ski station to have some fun with our son with a ledge ! Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France ! 
 
We were glad to stop there : seeing all the geothermal effects. But we had great difficulties with coordinates. We also saw on our way some ashes going out from a volcano : so impressive. OUr son was comparing the bubbling mud with hot chocolate sauce... Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France !

A quick stop on our way to Tongariro National Park. We nearly missed the road to go down. A lake is taking form under the bridge. The cache is in good condition even if everything is wet around ! We made the most of this stop by having a quick snack there. Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France ! 
 
We needed fuel on our way to Tongariro National Park and this cache was just on the other side. We splitted tasks and we found it quickly with wetness all around in the bush ! Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France ! 
 
How funny this carrot ! My son wanted a pic there... We had – strangely – a hard time to find it... But there it is.... We swapped a Spider TB with an Geocoin “A cache a day keeps the doctor away” – Forget about apple and carrot ! Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France. 
 
A quick stop on our way to Tongariro National Park where occured a tragedy in 1953. We had a lot of work there to find the answers (the panels are so long to read...) but we nearly did it. Strange to think about all the people that are skiing on a volcano that it’s awake. Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France.
Please note that due to poor internet connexion, pics will be uploaded later. 
 
A nice stop on our way to Tongariro National Park with great views behind. Easy to spot as well. Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France. 
 
On our way down from the skiing station, we found quickly this cache. A bit exposed by the bar on the other side of the road, we didn’t stay too long there ! Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France. 
 
We had some difficulties to find as the GPS sent us on the wrong side of the path. Hoefully, the cache’s description was helpful ! This cache is at that moment the highest we’ve ever done. Cool ! Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France.

We had some difficulties to find the way down but we got in the end ! The coordinates led me down the path. Hopefully the hint helped a lot ! Thank you for the cache / Merci pour la cache. Greetings from France !
