Expedition

Due to scheduling reasons, I knew that today I would have to be at university about three hours earlier than when my first thing was (9am - 12pm); when I then noticed that today's geohash was conveniently located along a train line with easy access from the city, I knew that I would be able to attempt it.

It wasn't that difficult to get there - simply take a train two stops along the Grange/Outer Harbour line, and walk for 10-15 minutes to the hashpoint. The point *did* land on someone's property, but thankfully it was a multi-unit property and I could just walk along the side driveway to get access to the hash.

Overall, this was a fun, quick hash that worked very well with my schedule for the day - I'm mostly just happy to be able to geohash again finally!
