Location

In Prinsenpark, Rotterdam.

Participants

FelixTheCat (talk)
Kat the Awesome

Expedition

Today's hash was in a park in the northern part of Rotterdam. We drove the hashmobile there and walked the final bit inside the park. The point was right on the edge of the water, and it was hard to get a low enough reading to count this as a win. We decided to hang the GPS unit over the water using a selfie stick to get a closer reading. It was very tight, but I'm counting it as "reached" since we got within the circle of uncertainty. After this we went shopping nearby, and then went home again.

Photos

The southern edge of Prinsenpark. It's a beautiful sunny day.
The hashpath (and a shadow selfie).
The point is near that tree up ahead.
This is the hashtree.
The ground around it is not very solid.
We managed to get the GPS a bit closer by improvising with a selfie stick.
Just about close enough.
Lloyd celebrating.
