Location

Northwest of Berlin, in an area of (housing) allotments.

Participants

Syphonophorae

Expedition

I decided to go to the geohash by bicycle. Somehow it was a pain in the ass, literally, because I haven't been driving for years. :D

So i arrived about quarter before 4pm. I headed through the gate to the allotments and looked up the spot between the fifth and sixth bower. According to Google maps it was supposed to be somewhere right on the border of the adjoining bowers.

Of course, I couldn't meet the exact spot but I was like 10meters away. You can see it on the pictures, where the easter tree is.

So this was my first trip. I enjoyed it very much.

-== Expedition ==
-I arrived at the hashpoint at 17:45 after trying unsuccessfully to find a nearby geocache. The coordinates were on the pavement next to a carpark for the graveyard, on the easterly flightpath to nearby Tegel airport. I didn't leave a poster as it was rather too public and manky.
+Of course, I couldn't meet the exact spot but I was like 10meters away. You can see it on the pictures, where the easter tree is.
-Nothing particularly interesting about this one. After the hash I headed through the graveyard in the vague direction of some geocaches, but was foiled by the fact that it was three separate graveyards in a huge complex and you couldn't walk through. I picked up two caches but the third, on the roof of the shopping mall (from which I took the photo of the plane landing at Tegel) was unreachable due to the fact that there was a pervert loitering at the coordinates in the otherwise empty carpark for at least an hour and a half.
+So this was my first trip. I enjoyed it very much.
