I only found out about geohashing a couple of weeks ago - sometime during May 2010.

Expeditions

1. My first ever expedition was for a Saturday meetup, on 2010-06-05. I ended up being the only one. The geohash was on a field belonging to the former concentration camp Neuengamme.
2. My second expedition was to Kiel-Meimersdorf, on 2010-07-04. I wanted to drag along my family but they insisted on staying in the car rather than joining me on the (very short and pleasant) walk across the field to the hashpoint.
3. My third expedition was to a small road in Ellerau, on 2010-11-19. I drove past the hashpoint in order to get the speed racer achievement (and it was dark anyway). I actually passed 8.5 m north of the hashpoint since it wasn't quite on the road.
4. My fourth expedition was... to my daughter's school! This was on 2011-02-10. I just had to go about 100 m out of my way, to the corner of a building at the edge of the campus.
