Joanna met Psud at the usual meeting place, the Glowing Cube for an attempt on a Canberra geohash. Joanna was driving this time, hooray!

The hash was on the highway that takes you to Sydney. It happened to be on the wrong side of the road, and just on the Sydney side of an exit. The next exit (to turn around and come back) was about 3k down the road. Boo for extra driving.

We drove by the hash, earning ourselves the speed racer achievement, then stopped in the emergency lane for the obligatory tower shot.
