The Place

On the footpath of a road near Fountain Gate Shopping Centre

Who Went

Stephen

Remembered to look up the location in the early afternoon. The location fell at the very top of the graticule which wasn't practical for the two 'official' graticules for Melbourne. Decided to create the new 'south east' graticule.

Arrived a minute or so after 4PM and had a look around and took a couple of photos. Then noticed two people walking towards me as if they were following directions from a handheld device. They were also here for the meetup.

Their names have completely slipped my mind. I hope they update this page.

We hung around for about half an hour. Collected some rubbish in an abandoned shopping trolley, they were going to return the trolley to the shopping centre where they had parked.

It would have been possible to get a bicycle achievement for this location as it isn't far from the path along the freeway that meets the Dandenong Creek Trail in the west. Considered it, but didn't have enough time.
