Location

At the entrance to the Isle of Capri Casino & Racetrack in Pompano Beach.

Participants

Million zillion

Plans

This hashpoint was about 8 miles north of my office. The plan was to reach it while there was still some sunlight.

Expedition

I left work later than I wanted to, but with enough time to reach the hashpoint before the sun was too low for pictures. It was on the grounds of the casino, near the driveway leading up to the parking lot. I parked on the grass nearby and located the hashpoint just on the far side of a chain link fence. As I seemed to be close enough by the normal geohashing standards (about 8 feet away by GPS), I decided to take it as a success at that point.

I took a few more pictures of the casino itself and the driveway - the latter captured a bit of a nice South Florida sunset.

Notes

This is amazingly close to the past hashpoint 2008-09-07 26 -80, differing only at the fourth decimal place in both the latitude and longitude, and also turning up right by the side of the entrance driveway for the casino/racetrack.

Photos

The hashpoint is a few feet away on the other side of the fence.
The front of the casino.
This way to the Great Egress.
