Location
OH NO! My Geohash Droid on Android says, that the coordinates for today are 66d28.827 and 25d45.171. And there I was. But the main page here says 66.1426628, 25.1446581. This is totally different point. Active Geohasher says: Graticule: 66, 25: Rovaniemi, Finland, Coordinates: 66.48045, 25.75286, that is the same as in Droid-application. Where is the problem?? Help me? And why the googlemap here is wrong?? Coordinates reached or not reached?
I was about 1.2 km from my home as measured from the map, on the lake Salmijärvi.

Expedition
Finally the hashpoint was near my house and luckily on the lake to win the Walking on the water achievement. But I was not so sure, if it is very safe to walk now on the ice. At daytime the temperature is now normally +5...+10 degrees. I decided to try. I had to walk about 30 meters from the shore to the hashpoint. And I walked veeeryy sloowlyy and succeeded. Returning I was almost on the shore, when the ice said "Bam", but that was all. I jumped to the shore and my heart said "ba-bam". Very nice hashpoint indeed.
- By car 2 km
- Walking total 400 m
- Expedition took 0.5 h
- Physical effort (1-5): 2
