Location

Today's geo hash lies on a meadow in Kunitz. It can be easily reached and the weather is great.

Expedition: Manu

Manu stood up early and had the plan to visit the hash on her way to work in Leipzig...

As it was a perfect morning nothing could stop her: She arrived in Kunitz and found a large parking area exactly at the point where she wanted to park her car anyway. Then she walked a few hundred metres in the sun and was glad when she saw that there was only low grass on the hash meadow. Soon Manu found the exact coordinates, took some photos, marked the place for other hashers who will certainly visit the hash later and enjoyed the view over Jena. Then she happily walked back to her car and drove to work.

Expedition: Reinhard

Reinhard basically did the same as Manu, but he defered it for after work. He parked at the same parking area, went the 250 m to the hash, was wondering why he didn't see any XKCD mark from Manu, was recognizing the mark when he placed the hashcots right there, took some photos, went back to the car and drove on to Leipzig.

Expedition: Jens, Juja and their numerous drag-alongs

As the hash was only at some 4 km distance to my home, I decided to walk this time, and as the weather was quite nice today, I additionally prepared a picknick and invited J., Jens and Uli to come along. So I started after work from my home with J. and Jens and our hashcots Karl, Tux and Räbe in the backpack. In Kunitz we met Uli, who had come by bike and was already waiting for us. We found the point, but though we were eagerly looking for it, we didn't spot the mark from Manu - maybe the wind had blown it away, since we did see the place where it was... We sat down on the meadow in the sun to have a great picnic, and after all was eaten up, we walked back home.
