I had planned to row from Mannheim-Rheinau to Speyer and back today with some friends of mine. We started to early (or I got out of bed to late) so I couldn't go to the hash before. At 10:30 we started rowing. The rhine is very low at the moment and when we just have left our harbor a big ship came along and made big waves. Usually these waves don't harm rowing boats but the water was so shallow that the waves broke and so we all got wet. Not very comfortable at this season although the weather was unusual warm. 4 kilometers later the same thing happened again and we had to stop in the Otterstädter Altrhein to empty our boat. But the rest of the tour to Speyer was pleasant and we arrived at 1 pm. We walked to the restaurant and to my surprise this was only 200 m away from todays hashpoint. So after dinner I told my companions about geohashing and that I had to go for a little walk. Dinner did last longer than expected and we had to hurry to come home before it was getting dark. Because of that my comrades couldn't come along with me.

So I quickly walked the 200m to the hash, took some pictures and hurried back to the place where we left our boat. We put it back into the water and rowed the way back to our club where we arrived at a quarter to five, one hour after we had left Speyer again.

Plans

Maybe I have some time during a rowing expedition from Mannheim-Rheinau to Speyer.

Expedition

As gracious the geohash god had been yesterday as cruel has (s)he been today. (S)he had chosen a place so close to my home like never before in the last two years. And I had hardly any time.

I had planned to row from Mannheim-Rheinau to Speyer and back today with some friends of mine. We started to early (or I got out of bed to late) so I couldn't go to the hash before. At 10:30 we started rowing. The rhine is very low at the moment and when we just have left our harbor a big ship came along and made big waves. Usually these waves don't harm rowing boats but the water was so shallow that the waves broke and so we all got wet. Not very comfortable at this season although the weather was unusual warm. 4 kilometers later the same thing happened again and we had to stop in the Otterstädter Altrhein to empty our boat. But the rest of the tour to Speyer was pleasant and we arrived at 1 pm. We walked to the restaurant and to my surprise this was only 200 m away from todays hashpoint. So after dinner I told my companions about geohashing and that I had to go for a little walk. Dinner did last longer than expected and we had to hurry to come home before it was getting dark. Because of that my comrades couldn't come along with me.

So I quickly walked the 200m to the hash, took some pictures and hurried back to the place where we left our boat. We put it back into the water and rowed the way back to our club where we arrived at a quarter to five, one hour after we had left Speyer again.

Achievements

Landgeohash.png
 DODO earned the Land geohash achievement
by reaching the (49, 8) geohash on 2015-12-27.


Consecutivegeohash.jpg
 DODO earned the Consecutive geohash achievement
by reaching 2 consecutive hash points starting on 2015-12-26.

There is no achievement for rowing to a hashpoint (if you don't reach the hp on the boat), and of course I had to drive to the rowing club by car so that that wouldn't have counted anyway.
