Geocache Description:

SOMETIMES YOU JUST NEED TO TURN LEFT INSTEAD OF RIGHT!


Coming home from the 2016 Mega in Turangi, I needed a rest for a traditional cuppa. This seemed a likely spot, as the prior rest area was occupied by muggles who were, well, doing muggle stuff.

Sometimes I turn right at this intersection, if visiting Orakei Korako, from the North. Or, I stay on the main road, to Taupo. I realised I've never turned left into the picnic area. Which led me onto thinking about choice, choosing, habits and other late night ramblings through my brain. Usually, heading home, I'm doing exactly that - heading home. But why? Why not stop? But to break a habit, an inducement is needed. What to do, I mused, not everyone will want a cuppa...

To confuse things, if heading North, turn right, instead of left (or instead of continuing on the main road).

A TOTT will be needed to extract the waterproof log... It's a traditional cache, but is also a very tiny nano.

*** Cache cannot hold anything apart from the included log sheet. ***
Please bring a pen for the waterproof paper log. Initials only, thanks.
