When I was at the #BuzzParty2024 in Hamburg last March, there was a Cleanplanet contest where attendees could create content and be rewarded for cleaning this beautiful beach, but also, upvoted on their posts! Of course, I have completely missed that as I suck... lol... I have a problem with being unable to focus on content creation on a trip, excursion, or vacation. So, during the event, I did take a few photos here and there, but I didn't create posts... When I came back, I was too hyped with the meetups that I had there, and this "photo material" was just accumulating on my laptop...
Something similar is happening on this vacation... Collecting photos and memories, but have no time to sort them and publish them... So, I decided to go step back and share with you this great walk by the river in Hamburg, where we collected rubbish and cleaned the beach! When I was picking up the photos, I realized that I didn't take any photos of cleaning, so you have to believe me that we actually did it... π Luckily, some other people posted about it and showed Hivians in action, so it DID HAPPEN... π
My main focus was on the river and friends... As I lived most of my life around the water, firstly on the river, and now at the sea, I can't resist taking photos on the water...
To get to the beach, we had to change two ferries and you can check them out from the inside, and from the outside in the next few photos... Also, you can maybe recognize some of the Hivians from the photos... Speaking of that, let's play a small game.., If you recognize some of them, tag them in the comments and I will upvote your comment with a bigger upvote than usual! To prevent cheating, only those who comment the first will get the upvote... Every UNIQUE mentioned Hivian, will bring additional upvotes...
Huh... Long story short, mention those who you recognize and I will try to reward as many people as possible... π Username and photo where you spotted him/her! HINT: There are at least 9-10 Hivians in these photos... :)
Back to the photos... This is probably one of my favorite photos... I took it when we offboarded one ferry and we were waiting for the next one... This place is actually a small island if I remember well!
This was a dock where our ferry left us as we reached our destination...
We took our tools for picking up rubbish and spread them all around the beach... At the beginning, we were in "organized" small teams, but at the end, we were mixed...
Another good photo to spot the Hivians! π
At the end of the #cleanplanet adventure, we took another ferry back to the city... The weather has changed, but luckily, it didn't rain!
If I remember well, the same day we had the "last dinner"... Some of the Hivians left before it as they had to catch the plane or their ride, but the majority was present in this Portuguese restaurant...
The night was still early... When we finished the dinner, I took this photo, and in the company of a few more Hivians, we hit the next stop, the bar where we spent a few more hours!
Thank you for your time,
--ph--
Don't forget to follow, reblog, and browse my Hivepage to stay connected with all the great stuff!
Great memories! Cant believe it was back in March already?! I could name most of the Hivians there, but I saw @tibfox was not tagged yet! He organised the great meetup and big thanks for the great events there! The Hive Buzz Party in Austria sounds like it could be a good event too!
Yeah, can't agree more with your statement! Normsi did a great job with this year's BuzzParty!!! It's not an easy job, especially since I try to organize just one small Hive meetup in a week, and it is already tons of preparations... and he did a HUGE event!
Can't wait for that one! When HF finishes, I will begin searching for flights and accommodation for Graz! π
If I was not so swamped with stuff, I would for sure come to your small meetup! I am sure it will be a blast like in Hamburg!
I would wait with the accommodation part - we will probably have a goooood spot right next/inside of the venue :) it will be 100% easier for you in the mornings and evenings ;) we assume to have the announcement in like October π

I see the reflection of @ninaeatshere on your sunglasses!! π€ I enjoy a lot with meet-up posts, I feel like Iβm there just for a little, sharing with you.
I have to admit that I didn't take that shot on purpose... I mean, to have her and another great Hivian in the reflection of my sunglasses, but I'm glad that they appeared! They are awesome! π
I hope that our small Balkan meetup will go well and you will have more photos of Hivians to enjoy!
When Zaragoza Hive meetup? Or should we create a Valencia Hive meetup this autumn? π€
Valencia sounds great, it would be a perfect excuse to travel again and make tons of new photos. π
I don't know if I could do an active post of what I'm doing at the moment. Usually it's no sooner than the following day. Take a picture than immediately edit it, haha. I've done that but not on multiples.
Great shots of the river front. I like the idea of collectively engaging in cleaning up the environment, it's really cool doing with other Hivians. For a good cause and just another way to engage!
I'll say the nearest person in the photo with shades is @ph1102. I bet you didn't think someone would mention you π π€£ π Hey if you don't count no worries, man π
Hahahaha... nice move... π I did expect that some wise guy would do it, but I didn't expect it from you... π Anyway, nice catch! It is indeed him... π
Haha I had nothing on the rest. I do wonder if any I do know that haven't seen face. Maybe a list of reveals to come, no?
Take care I go on vacation next week but will probably turn into a staycation..

Here in our country, we have one day a year, sometime in April, Earth Day, on which everyone from the local community cleans up the city.
That's a great initiative!
When we were cleaning the beach, I was pleasantly surprised that we had to search and look well to find some trash! It was relatively clean, so not too much work for us... π
What a great initiative while having a Hive meetup! I don't know any of the faces.
We've not had a meetup here in South Africa, a bit difficult as the country is so vast. It must be really nice meeting the person behind the name!
Lovely photos @ph1102
Thank you!
It's great to hear that you attended a meetup in South Africa and I hope you will have many more in the future too! It is indeed great to meet the person behind the username!
Love the idea of combining a fun meetup with a cleanup; a way to make a difference while having a great time. Great photos, too!
Thanks! We were weirdos on the beach cleaning it without anyone telling us to do so... It was great to hear some positive comments from people who were passing by, appreciating our work!
It sounds like a nice trip and a nice dinner. I think it's common to just focus on the moment. It's nice to know that you still have the pictures so you can organize it all later.
That's true... Some people can move focus fast from one thing to another, but I'm usually stuck in one thing for a longer period... π
Oh you had a whole crew on a mission. Woopass man!
Hehehehe... cool gif... π
Having the whole crew was the best thing as we were cleaning the beach while having fun talking (and competing about who would collect the most rubbish... π)
It was an amazing moment of many unforgettable moments of this weekend :) Thanks for bringing them back my friend <3 It was a blast to meet you and I can't wait to meet you in Graz next year :))) and then with more time to chat - I promise :D
Hehehehe... The pleasure was ours! You did a great job, despite being anxious during the event, I really enjoyed it! In your company, and the company of all other Hivians!
See you in Graz! Or who knows, maybe somewhere else earlier!
I always write after my trips, by recalling the memories and organizing the photos ;)
Yeah, me too... But, it would be best to do it ASAP, while the memories are fresh... Getting older makes it more difficult to remember after some time without writing things down... hahahahah... π
Nice share! Looks like a fun day! I don't recognise anyone except you haha!
