Geocache Description:


Well Pengi has shown you many photos of the places he has travelled to around the world, but we forgot about our home country New Zealand. So here we go again with some photos. Since we have so many we decided to split into two, North and South Islands. So here is the South Island sample.

This time the six photos are locations you need to identify to obtain the co-ordinates. I would hope any true Kiwi would know these quite easily, but we may have some visitors so if you need help it is available. Just click on the image and guess what? You get to solve the Jigsaw. I know some love and some hate these, but we love them so that is the way to do it.

 

Hold that building up in ????A? Pengi.

A nice white limestone Penguin. Must be ??B???

Fish for tea! But which one is this? ??C???

A nice bunch of fruit in this interesting town. ????D???

A Fanfare for Pengi in ?????E??????

A nice easy beach art one in ??????F?

 

GPS coverage at GZ was very poor, about 12m at best and not repeatable. So if you work out the letters ABCDEF from the above photos and put into certitude you will get the co-ordinates and a very good hint. And no - ABCDEF does not spell a word. At least not in any language that I know.

 

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
