Geohashing on our wedding anniversary.
Location
On the bank of an artificial lake in Dąbrowa Górnicza, Poland.
Participants
Malgond and his wife.
Plans
Since I started geohashing, I review the achievement list quite often - just to see if I can have some extra fun with little effort and it came to my mind that a Wedding Anniversary one would be nice, specifically that the date was coming... Since I don't have a GPS device still, I had little hope while keying in the date and location in the Eupeodes' page, but... hooray! It's an easy one - and a marvelously pleasant one as well. The hash for our wedding day and graticule lies on a sandy bank of an artificial lake! Perfect place!
Luckily, it was also easy to reach without GPS - just count these bushes and at the eighth one go straight towards the forest line up to about three-thirds distance.
There's also one peculiar thing on this map - the locality to the west of the dike between the reservoirs is called PIEKŁO (Polish for Hell), while the one to the south-west is named NIEPIEKŁO (Not-hell). I have no idea why these neighbourhoods are named so strangely, but our wedding-day geohash lies exactly between them. It evokes some philosophical thoughts...
