Corinda & Oxley

I took the morning off (because I have that kind of responsible work ethic thing going... And I freelance,) to put my feet where my words were, and get back into some serious mapping. It was pretty good, too. I managed to cover a fair bit of the sparse spots in Corinda and Oxley.

I woke up at a little before seven, had a banana for breakfast, and read some feeds before lathering myself with sunscreen and setting out. It was about half past nine before I set off.

I got to Chelmer station and set off, and I'd hardly got down the street before I realised I'd way overestimated my ability to cover ground -- It wasn't just street names I was collecting, it was landmarks (like crossing, benches, bus stops [although I've no idea how much the new QROTI data has changed this,]) as well as buildings (like churches and halls,) and I even took a fair few street numbers to plug into the database as well. I took none of this into account, so by the time I was a quarter of the way through my scheduled journey, I was ready to pack it in.

I ended up taking a revised route that got the immediate area around Corinda done. It was a good (I mean really good) walk, and I picked up a lot of meta that had been missed in the areas that had been done before me. I'm particularly interested in getting the cycleways down, because that's been one of the most useful maps for me to date.

I just got through the door, filled up my water bottle, and finally collapsed on the couch. I haven't downloaded any of my waypoints yet, but that's the next task.
