Expedition

+30°C, Rare in Finland!

After a good night's sleep in Pastori's childhood scenery, now we're talking about the 1950s, our journey continued towards Turku. We chose this road because it went through the place in which Pastori served his military duty in 1969. Pastori wanted to be a bit of a nostalgic, and drink some coffee with a big doughnut in the canteen of the garrison. The place had kept it's quality level well, it was still cheap and good.

Our parking spot.

Pastori noticed that there was a geohash nearby. When approaching noon, the temperature neared +30°C, and Pastori remembered dreaming in the winter, when doing the juggernaut-achievement in -31°C, that there would sometime be +30! And now it was, so it was a must to go to the forest!

At the hashpoint.

The point seemed easy enough to reach, and we could get by car as close as 30 meters. We left the car in the middle of a small forest road, changed our gear, quickly stepped into the forest, took pictures, and left immediately. Satellites offered a glimpse of a 0,? reading, but Pastori, although being swift, managed to get only a 3 meter screenshot. Our gear in the pictures tell something about feelings in the Finnish forests in the middle of a summer when it's hot weather. The report we wrote in the amazing coolness of an air-conditioned service station, before heading for new adventures.
