Chris_47_8

Plans

Go there by bike.

Expedition

On such a beautiful sunny sunday, i decided to go for today's hash by bike. It was about 25km from home, which is no distance. I biked there and immediately found the place. No big deal. :) The hash was in a vegetable field, but i have no idea what sort of vegatable it was. Has anyone an idea?

While standing at the hashplace, i saw a small plane landing not far away. I knew that there was a small airstrip (with restaurant) somewhere here, so I decided to go there and have an ice cream. The airfield was just on the other side of the town. While is was sitting there and enjoying my ice cream, i checked Google Maps and realized that the graticule border to 47, 9 goes right thru the airfield. After i was refilled with sugar from the ice cream and a soda i biked back home.
