Expedition

Instead of leaving the train after visiting 2024-01-30 52 7 in Ochtrup, I decided to stay on the train, taking it to Wissingen, and cycled the rest of the distance.

The coordinates were in a back yard. I was feeling lucky and rang the doorbell to ask for permission. The middle-aged man who opened seemed a bit confused by my request, but did not block it off. He even asked how exactly the Algorithm works that placed the coordinates in his garden. While I was going on about the stock index and hash functions, he must have decided that I was harmless and granted me permission, and I thanked him.

Within the back yard, the coordinates were in a hedge. I got within the uncertainty circle outside the hedge and stuck my arm in to be sure to have reached the coordinates, and recorded proof.

Afterwards, I cycled back home to Osnabrück.
