Plans

I have to drive to Seckenheim after work tomorrow and so it's a detour of less than 5 KM. That's far to easy not to go. ETA at 5 pm (or a quarter of an hour later).

Expedition

If things seem to easy you instinctively put pepper in them by getting careless. And so I forgot every geohashing-equipement when I left home for work this morning. But todays hashpoint in my beloved graticule was so easy to reach that my ten years old mobile could do (at least it already has a gps-receptor). So I left work at 17:06 and arrived at the hashpoint ten minutes later. Just parked the car, walked to the corner, took some pictures and left again five minutes later. I arrived at Seckenheim at 17:28 but nevertheless came 10 minutes late to my date due to road works and the correspondent deviation, but thats already another story.

I switched on the gps-receptor in my mobile when I have reached the hp, to proof that I've been there, but I did not use it to get there, so I think I've earned my first no batteries-achievement.
