Expedition

RecentlyChanged telling his Intro

I started at 4:45 pm with going out of the house, taking the tram to Karlsruhe. The tram was surprisingly fast at the mainstation of Karlsruhe, because it was the only fast Express train of the day (no proof) so I thought I walk the rest of it, because I don't wanted to be early at the home of Deuded. I walked into a mean row of streets, on every cross I thought something like left (or going on) is a little bit to far west, but right is way to far east, so I walked a totally idiotic way and ended up at the first tram station I found "Karlstor". There I called Deuded to say me where I have to go. He looked for a way and called me back a minute or so later. He asked: is there a line number 6? I've told him yes, because on both sides of the station one tram was arriving from this line, and after really fast changing the sides I made it. Five minutes or so later I was back at the main station and another three or four I was at his home. There he awaited me and we had to go really fast back again to the mainstation. There we needed lot of time to find the right rail track, but the made it about 1 minute before departure.
