The easiest (or at least, cheapest) way to get here would be to take a train from Central Station to the International Terminal and catch the free shuttle bus to the car park. Alternatively you could drive, and park there for $24.

People

  • Middlerun - I got there at about 3:50 pm. As far as I know I was the only person to make it. I went to the long term car park, where I thought the hash was, only to discover that there was a fence I hadn't noticed when I looked it up in Google Earth, and the gates were locked. Luckily there was a gash in the fence which had been closed up with a few bits of wire. I removed some of the wires and got through, took the photos, and then went back to wait for other geohashers. A security guy asked to see my parking ticket, and I told him I didn't have one because I was meeting someone. He asked me to wait by the office at the entrance to the car park, so I just left. When I got back to the terminal I met Gormster who recognised my Sudo shirt.
  • Gormster - Arrived too late, after Middlerun had already been kicked out by security.
