Location

In the Malwowa street within Wola Duchacka district in Cracow.

Participants

Malgond alone.


Plans

Malgond plans to go. It's just 230 meters off his daily commute to work!

Expedition

I haven't ventured for a geohashing expedition for a long time already, therefore I could not miss such an opportunity. According to Google Maps, the hash was located on a residential street very close to the road I drive to work every day.


The expedition itself was trivial. On my way to work I had turned right on an intersection I usually travel straight through and after negotiating another few turns and driving along narrow residential streets I have arrived at the spot. Because it was on the pavement, I wanted to drive right through it to get a rather mediocre version of speed racer achievement - the legal speed there is only 30 km/h. I was alone in the car this time snd had no tripod or holder therefore documenting that feat proved difficult and not particularly safe: I was trying to hold the camera straight while steering with the other hand. A few attempts to drive along the hashpoint failed or produced unsatisfactory results. I have parked the car nearby and get out to get some still shots.

After that I got back in the car and made another couple of circles around the neighbourhood trying to get a more or less steady recording. The sun was shining right into my windscreen making the attempts still more difficult. Finally I got a good shot and drove off to work.
