I would definitely like to meet you there. Unfortunately, I caught the flu and won't go anywhere the next days. --Hermann 13:58, 9 February 2011 (EST)

Pne

I can hardly avoid the geohash: since I'll be taking my daughter to that school tomorrow and picking her up again at noon, I'll have to pass within at most ~100 m of the hashpoint. If I'm lucky, I can do it when I pick her up and take her with me, making it a drag-along achievement.

It's also nearly a déjà vu geohash achievement since I walked around the other of the two bungalows just this morning while waiting for school to finish ("nearly" because I didn't go around *that* building and, not least, because I have no proof).

Expedition

Scouting expedition - Pne

This morning, after I dropped off my daughter at school, I had a look around that building to see whether I could find the hashpoint.

The last digit kept wavering, but at one point I managed to get it displayed to within 5 decimal places (the display accuracy on my device) - outside the building, fortunately!

I didn't take my camera along since I planned to taking a picture of my daughter at the hashpoint when I pick her up at noon.

I do have a tracklog for this expedition, which I'll upload in case I can't follow through with my plan for a "proper"(ly documented) visit.

Second expedition - Pne

After picking up my daughter, we went back to the same corner of the building and took some pictures.

My satnav wouldn't display exactly the right coordinates this time, but I didn't want to stick around too long and so I called it "good enough".

I'll upload the pictures later.
