Expedition Two (BarbaraTables)
For all the other Wiki editors trying to work out the correct order to put these expeditions in, I got there at 2:16pm. I said I was going to get there at 12:00pm, but my sleepiness said no.
I got there, as usual, by public transport. As soon as I got off the last bus, I Pythagorased to the coffee as any Melburnian would, then went to the Hash.
I actually saw the homeowner of the nearby house when I got there; they were exiting the driveway in their car, waiting for an opening in the traffic. Kinda decided to keep walking on until they had driven off to avoid looking insane and/or suspicious, then just took a selfie nearby. I wanted to do a pano of the street, but I kept getting interrupted by cars driving by and didn't want to look like I was trying to video them (or have a messed up pano).
Headed to Chadstone afterwards since I was in the area; got some stationary for the upcoming uni semester and some food.
Expedition Three
The Leap Day Hash must be done. Plans were made, people were summoned, bikes were lubricated, and work commitments were... not skipped.
We met at Federation Square. Somehow Patrick arrived first and enjoyed watching pedestrians wandering down the FOOTPATH CLOSED. DO NOT ENTER BIKE LANE. USE OTHER FOOTPATH lane, while waiting for Cam and Lachie to arrive.
We proceeded suavely to the geohash, down the Gardiner’s Creek Trail before diverting along the Suburban Rail LoopOuter Circle Trail, crossing Dandenong Road a.k.a. the Princes Highway a.k.a. Highway 1 (Alternative) a.k.a. another impressive entry in the worst connected bicycle paths in Melbourne. Patrick was in the lead, meaning that we got lost many times, but eventually made it to the hash.
Upon hash arrival, we bumbled around to get a good distance measure, and had traditional at-hash beers. As we were doing this, the resident of the property directly adjacent to the hash returned so we awkwardly wandered away trying to ensure our faces were not visible.
The intense stress of avoiding being seen at the hash meant beers were needed. So we headed on to Kaiju Brewing, ensuring we narrowly missed meeting Expedition Four ;( However, beers were had. John and Cam stayed for dinner at Kaiju and returned home uneventfully (???????) while Patrick went to his parents’ place for dinner and returned uneventfully.
Expedition Four (Wizdude)
Arrived there at 7:04pm by car.
Expedition Five
Patrick's friend successfully achieved a first hash experience — on a leap day!!! — and described the experience as “I love it” and “Wonder how many people took a selfie outside these people's place hah” (wiki reports: at least 9), and will definitely become a committed geohasher.
Photo and proof to come subject to consents etc.
Expedition Six
Lachie sent pictures to the chat with a bottle of cab sauv and baked ziti. Unsure if he survived, but sure he made it to the hash with minutes to spare.
