Geocache Description:

This is one of a series of caches we have placed on a route from Tauranga to Auckland return (T2A-R). The traditional caches contain information needed for two bonus caches, one at either end of the trip.


From time to time we travel this route between Tauranga and Auckland, sometimes returning the same day. We have got into the habit of stopping to find a cache or two as a good excuse to take a break from driving, and decided to place a few ourselves.

The cache title is a well-known quote from the movie ET (the Extraterrestrial), released in 1982. Perhaps the structure near GZ would have helped, but these days many prefer to use the latest cell phone technology.

Please park well off the road and take care with fast-moving traffic. You are looking for a camoed screw-top container which contains a pencil and waterproof log sheet. There is room for swaps and TB's. It also contains a clue to help you find the Tauranga Bonus cache. Watch out for the prickly hedge. To retrieve the cache, unscrew the top and lift out carefully. Please be stealthy and replace as found.

FIRST TO FIND: jazzmo. Congratulations!
