Location

Near the train station in Monselice

Participants

XXOs’ family (father, mother, sibling)

Plans

I’m in Europe on a family holiday, and it just so happens that I’m going to be travelling from Padova to Bologna today!

This hash looks pretty easy to get, too - it’s on a road next to a train station! All I need to do is convince my parents to let me stop there to get the hash. Fingers crossed.

Expedition

Success! Like I expected, it was pretty easy - given that it was near the train station, we were able to park just a few metres away and then taking a few steps.

Unfortunately I didn’t have my hashscot with me this time, but I did have a new geohashing marker that I was able to stick on a nearby drain pipe.

Monselice is quite a pretty town, but unfortunately we weren’t able to stay for much longer because it was a relatively impromptu stop along the way to Bologna.

Photos

Achievements

XXOs earned the Globetrotter achievement

by visiting hashpoints on 2 continents.
