Location

In the middle of the street in Düsseldorf.

Participants

pah (prev|next)
NB

Expedition

After coming home from work, pah noticed by chance that today's geohash was only 1.6 km away from our home. Darn, narrowly missed the Couch Potato Honorable Mention, but still an Easy Geohash! Dragging NB along, we had a short walk in the ~~park~~ dark towards the hash location right in the middle of the street.

We put up a quickly printed Geohash poster, took some pictures and shortly introduced geohashing to puzzled strangers walking by. Afterwards we went for dinner to a nearby Italian restaurant and enjoyed the rest of the evening after this easy success.
