Plans
- I was dropping off my girlfriend at the train station and decided to have a look at today's geohash on my phone. When I realized that it was within 10 minutes walking distance, I obviously could not resist.
- Go there on my bull in the morning. DODO (talk)
Expedition
First of all, I needed to get a parking ticket. Originally I intended to drive away right after dropping her off, but with this parking space known for rigorous fines within seconds of parking without a ticket, I had no choice but to buy one.
The hash location itself was easy to find, just a few streets away from the station. The location was reachable from an inner courtyard of a building block.
Now comes the point where I'm not sure whether I can count this as reached. I managed to get a screenshot with green numbers, showing less than three meters distance to the hash. However, the precise location was inside the building. I'm letting it count for now, but if you think different please feel free to edit. Unfortunately I did not see a good a way to leave a mark (didn't have anything to write on me).
