Expedition

In the morning, I took the train via Herford, Altenbeken and Kassel-Wilhelmshöhe to Kirchhain. Originally, I would have arrived with a huge time window, but the last train was delayed by almost an hour, which meant that I would just barely make it to the coordinates and back to catch the train I wanted to go back on.

In Kirchhain, now in the early afternoon, the sun was shining mercilessly, but I had enough water. As I approached the coordinates, I noticed some construction work going on, but luckily it was on the other side of the street. It looked like they were digging a new ditch.

The coordinates were easily accessable on a meadow. After recording proof, I walked back to the station and was able to catch my train to Kassel-Wilhelmshöhe. Switching trains there, in Altenbeken and in Herford, I arrived back home in Osnabrück.
