Participants

Location

An official alternate has been established at Academie Duello 412 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, BC (south side of Hastings just west of Homer). Meet up time is 6:50 am. Swords will be provided. You must be on the floor in workout clothes (like what you'd wear for yoga) by seven a.m. or there will be punishment.

If the day's location is good, we can leap there later.

Note that parking is free until 9 a.m., you can bring your bike inside, and it is very close to the Waterfront Skytrain station. No excuses!

Actual Location

Discovered after sword class: in the water off Ambleside beach. A bit farther from shore than a previous epic Vancouver hashpoint

Expedition

Six geohashers and one xkcd reader who wondered about all the xkcd t-shirts but didn't know about geohashing played with swords for an hour. (Along with the rest of the class who had been invited by other people.) Wade had the only camera, on his blackberry, and will post the group shot later.
