Plans

The expedition wasn't as planned as it should be, however, it was on my birthday! So I was confident the Universe would conspire for us to get to my first hash EVER.

Expedition

Having a gargantuan breakfast in bed was a very good way to start a birthday, I would say. Second to that, peeping at the iPhone GeoHash app and seeing that today's hash was an achievable one, was pure and unadulterated joy.

SO and me hopped onto the car and swiftly rushed to the road, in a very pleasant and sunny Sunday. Lots of tourists had the very same idea, though. In the end, we got to the point and back, drinking mate in the car and chatting all along.

The hash was located in a high spot, approximately 200 meters over a nearby hill west of the road. I was thrilled, because I got three achievements in one single lucky fluke: My first Land geohash achievement, the Birthday Geohash Achievement and the Virgin Graticule achievement!

I took some pictures of the view from the hash, and one of my national ID booklet ([DNI]) showing my birthdate to claim my Birthday Geohash. I present thee the pictures of my province in their full glory for your viewing pleasure.
