Expedition
Today being the 10th anniversary of Geohashing, of course I wanted to go on an expedition. Alas, no easily reachable points were nearby, the closest candidate being in 50,6 near Aachen. But luckily today was a national holiday and I had no other plans. I managed to convince Kat to go on a day trip, first to do some sightseeing in Maastricht (and eat some vlaai, or pie, the local delicacy), and then to take a walk in a forest just across the border in Germany.
It was quite a long drive (about 2.5 hours each way) but we had a lot of fun both in Maastricht and in the forest. The weather was nice, we found the hashpoint and a good time was had by all :-)
Happy Geohashing Day everyone!
