Go there by bull in the morning on my way to the office.

Expedition

I had no successful hash for ... years? No, it was just 45 days. But that's nevertheless the longest time without hashing since I started in 2013. So I got really excited, when I checked the hashes on Saturday morning. All three of them (Sa, Su and Mo) were in a short distance and looked reachable. Well, I was to busy on saturday and wasn't successful yesterday, so I just had to go today. I decided to try it in the morning on my way to the office - that would be just a detour of 10 kilometers. It was still dark when I started, but it became clearer during the ride and so I could take some pictures when I reached the hashfield. I had to walk into the field for 60 meters. It was drizzling all morning and the field was wet and muddy. But I reached the wanted position at 8 o'clock. As you can see here the sun rises at the hash at 8:11 on 2016-12-12 so I think, that even qualifies for a sunrise-achievement, although I wasn't able to see the sun (or even locate it) at all. I quickly continued my way to the office, used the - meanwhile well known - ferry and reached the office at half past eight. As a bonus, I didn't cross my usual way to the office on the way, and so I was able to achieve a tron also.
