Geohash! Again? Really? Where? Wow!

Who's keen? Felix busy? Lachie then. 5 minutes? Let's go.

On the bike. Pedal very slowly. Leg pretty tender. But only 3 k's. Take it easy.

Is Lachie already there? Now I see him. Nice to catch up. We cruise on in. No need to dismount.

Suprise golfers are out practising. We ride to the hash. Obligatory socially distanced hash selfie. We cruise back homewards, satisfied. They don't get much easier!

Expedition 2: Felix

Very little to report here, what a fortuitous hash!

Today was the day I was moving house so I had too much going on to get to the hash with Stevage and tAlex. Once most of the gear was moved over, and just as the sun was setting, I set out on my bike from the new place.

Luckily, by waiting until the afternoon, rather than the distance to the hash being 3.5 kms it was instead only 2.6 kms. Even more ideal would have been to have done the crucial house move during the hash (which I would define as being when the bed is moved). That would make it one of the few geohashes to have been a non-return journey that nevertheless both started and finished at home. Ah well.

The trip itself was uneventful, although I have to learn the new local streets a bit more. I got to the hash and took some photos. Unbelievably easy and convenient there. And it was a great sunset on the way back to new home.

The hypothetical route had I hashed mid-move. (I used to live at 25 Ormond St, Kensington and I now live at 18 Temple St, Brunswick West fyi).

Expedition 3: Adelaide

It was mentioned that tAlex got the puppetmaster geohash achievement by directing his sister Adelaide to the hash. Here is a photo from that endeavour:
