Expedition

Fippe

Day 36 of the Geohashing Wiki being offline.

From Hannover, I took the train to Hengelo via Rheine early in the morning, and walked the rest of the distance from there.

In Hengelo I saw the Lambertus Church and some bear statues. I also saw many flags of Hengelo, and comparatively few flags of the Netherlands.

Eventually I arrived at the Weideweg/Bankastraat street corner. The coordinates were on an edge of the bike path, but there were not many people there (probably since it was a Sunday morning), so I did not have any problems locating the coordinates.

After recording proof, I walked back to the train station, and took the train back to Hannover.

I left Kassel with the train at 8:02 and again there was no connection from Warburg to Paderborn. I traveled further to Schwerte and changed there for Münster and Rheine. I arrived at Hengelo at 12:30 and made a walk around the city and to the hash. Afterhash I walked back into the city and to the railway station and traveled home.
