Yeah, well, 'expedition' is a big word for having to walk 6 minutes from my front door. It threatened to rain rain, so my preparations consisted of getting a jacket. And putting on my shoes.

Location

In a district of the Dutch city of Nijmegen, just somewhere in a street next to someones garden shed.

Participants

SomeDutchman (talk)

Plans

I got a notification that today's location was 0 km from my house. Zero! Could it be the Couch Potato Geohash for me? No :( But hey, at least it's on a street, not in someone else's house, so I can visit it.

Oh, and I see that there is a place for a Honorable Mention on the Couch Potato Geohash page! I'll add myself there, whoohoo!

Expedition

Yeah, well, 'expedition' is a big word for having to walk 6 minutes from my front door. It threatened to rain rain, so my preparations consisted of getting a jacket. And putting on my shoes. Oh, and starting my GPS. That was the most exciting part of this expedition: would there be enough time for it to get a fix? (Spoilers: just!)

Walking to the spot I recognized the location. It could also have been a Déjà vu geohash achievement... 50m further down the street there was the final location of the really nifty multi-cache GC9PCRQ Geocache that I've done earlier. Unfortunately no line of sight, so not even a Hash collision achievement for me :'( but hey! At least I've gotten myself a Walk geohash achievement!

Photos

  • Looking North-East. The roof of the shed has seen better days...

  • Looking North-West. My photo-taking qualities are as inspiring as the weather was.

  • Looking south-east. Note: South-West would be taking a photo directly into someones home, so I didn't do that.

  • Proof!

  • Panorama of the waterway directly next to the neighborhood. Also roughly the starting location of the PERREPLU geocache.
