Pre-planning a route when driving in Malmö is virtually impossible. There is always some unforeseen roadwork going on that requires annoying diversions. No exceptions to this "natural law" today, but fortunately it was before rush-hour so I got to the general geohash area without to much cursing.

Location

Agnesfridsvägen, Malmö.

Participants

Fasanen

Plans

Original plan was not to go.

Expedition

Today's location was an urban one which is (as far as I have experienced) quite uncommon for this graticule. In order to fit this expedition in today's tight schedule, I left work in Lund about 20 minutes earlier than usual.

Pre-planning a route when driving in Malmö is virtually impossible. There is always some unforeseen roadwork going on that requires annoying diversions. No exceptions to this "natural law" today, but fortunately it was before rush-hour so I got to the general geohash area without to much cursing.

The location was in a housing area and the GPS readings were fluttering. The Google maps satellite view was not to any help in determining whether the spot was inside or outside one of the buildings because of its angle. I finally decided it to be in a sloe bush (Prunus spinosa) next to the house wall.
