Plans

This one is surprisingly located. I'm used to municipality boundaries drawing improbable shapes, but I didn't expect the southern neighbourhood of my childhood village of Artolsheim (including the hash point) to actually be part of the neighbouring municipality of Hessenheim.

I will cycle there after work. I expect to reach the coordinates around 18:00.

Expedition

I left home at 17:45 and cycled from Sélestat to Hessenheim. I exited the village, crossed the old Rhône–Rhine Canal and entered the urban area of Artolsheim, without technically leaving the boundaries of Hessenheim.

I followed a farm track along the canal and arrived in front of a cornfield. I left my bicycle there and walked to the coordinates, taking care not to trample the sprouts and muddying my cycling shoes.

After recording proof, I cycled back home.
