Location

While we were originally headed for a water hash on Lake Skirmish (Scharmützelsee) in 52,14, our general lateupness, laziness, the ticket prices and the lack of other participants made us head for this hash in Beelitz instead. It's a meadow in a region famous for asparagus.

Today's battleship location is: A 3

Participants

• relet celebrated his second geohashiversary on the water. You're invited!
• lyx

Plans

deprecated

The regional train goes right until the lake. They rent paddle boats, electric boats, other boats, you name it. There is a ferry too, and we will most probably bring our rubber boat.

Feel free to set up some planning if you have the time to do research. We would probably set out some time before noon, try to reach a place where we can set a boat to water, meet at the hash with all the boats you can muster, take a lake tour, and then find another nice place to hang out. And try to do some research about where the boat rentals are, so that we can pass these on the way. We'll be busy this evening however, so if you find something out, feel free to post it as a plan. -- relet 14:28, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Is spiderlyx a weirlyx?  Weir indeed.  Along the way...  Geohash is a - cowpat. Thanks to our extraordinary sincereness, we could refrain from writing xkcd into it. Barely.  Proof of location with feet.  Les grin stupides  In this graticule, at least I can make use of my remaining hashcards  The brook we had to cross was already forded  Weirlunch  Traces of... roe? deer?  Mostly wheat.  Dates of arrival and departure of the first storks of each year.
