Location

Tivolistraat in Heverlee (Leuven), a small road next to the railway.

Participants

Lemming

Plans

Trying to get there before sunset, for a nice photo. 18:45 is the earliest possible for Lemming.

Expedition

As Wednesday's geohash was rather close to my home, I picked this one as my very first geohashing trip. I took my camera to work, so I could walk to the target directly from the train station after my evening commute. In the end I needed about 25 minutes to get there, as I took time to take pictures. Afterwards I walked 150 m more to visit a friends house :-) No drag-along achievement because the friend was home alone with his child... So my first geohash expedition was a short one, but it was a fun thing to do. I'll certainly will try this again in the future.

Photos

Walking away from the dead trees
Towards the blossoming ones
Abdij van 't Park (abbey)
Someone left an iPhone
Sunset
Sunset railroad

Achievements

Lemming earned the Land geohash achievement

by reaching the (50, 4) geohash on 2011-03-23.
