Plans

At 10am, while in class, I checked the hash for today and (again) got surprised (still able to keep low). There were two reasons:

1. After some months, it points to an area "in my reach" (1km north of a commuter train station) while I can have some time to venture out.
2. On the satellite image, the point is right in the middle of a street, on a crossroad, at its pedestrian crossing. Now that is a hash to get.

Expedition

At 1:45pm, I set off, again, from my college, Faculty of Computer Science, University of Indonesia, while it was about to rain. And just when I reached the train station, it rained.

After two train ride, 1 angkot ride, and a little walk (took the wrong line of the two available in front of the station; it made a U-turn 150m before the hash), I arrived at the crossroad at 3:10pm. After some minutes prepping my phone at the sidewalk (including taking some preview pics), I crossed the road while taking video from my phone to ensure I can get a shot of my feet on the hash. Walk-by! Since I think I can't take any more pics, I headed back right away, with the right angkot.
