Happy grin

Location

Between Gernsheim and Allmendfeld in the upper Rhine valley;
located on a concreted rural road between an asparagus field and a strawberry field.

Participants

Q-Owl

Plan

After work: Drive near the hashpoint between Gernsheim and Allmendfeld, walk to the hp, reach it about 17:00, walk back to the car and drive home.

Expedition

I drove near the hashpoint after work, walked to it, marked it and took a few photos. :-)

The speed racer achievement was not possible, because the road was for residents only.

There was no geocache near the hashpoint. :-(

-<!-- We found a road, which led us near the the hashpoint and was not prohibited. To reach the hp we had to walk straight through a litte valley in the wood. Good to wear rainboots!
-After a short dance Q-Owl reached the hp, marked it with a few sticks and took a few photos. Next to the hp Q-Owl found a nice little [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smooth_newt newt]. We photografed it, and left it there.
