Expedition
Another day of sun in The Netherlands, spring has finally arrived. What better way to celebrate than to go geohashing. At the hash coordinate were also a handful geocaches so plenty of reasons to take the 20 min. drive from 's Hertogenbosch.
Upon arrival, the batteries of my GPS broke down 50 m from the hash. Darn, is the coordinate on this side of the ditch or the other side? I did not want to jump over the water since the far side had some barbed wire quite near the landing zone...
I realized there may be some nice app for geohashing that could help me here. After downloading Geohash Droid i was able to reach the coordinates, hurrah. There was even a feature to directly make a wiki entry, how convenient! Since I did not completely trust the app I made some photos of the screen just in case. That was surely the right decision because upon arriving home, the app did not seem to have worked (if you know what I did wrong, please tell me). The photos are not very legible due to the very bright sunlight but hopefully it suffices for proof of my successful expedition...
