Location

Vienna, 14th district (Penzing) - in a backyard of a housing estate

Participants

Micsnare -- flying solo!!

Plans

There were no plans really, this was a rather spontaneous hash. It was early Saturday afternoon (around 4pm) when Micsnare was idling on her couch, when all of the sudden the notification of a near-by hash came in. Google Maps quickly revealed that the hash was located next to some military barracks, so this could prove to be difficult. But Micsnare wanted to try this nonetheless. Since hashing solo is most of the time boring, she quickly pinged B2c, but he seemed still convalescent, that's why Micsnare decided to this one on her own.

Expedition

Yay, it was possible!! -- Micsnare (talk) @48.2014,16.2971 17:29, 20 August 2016 (GMT+02:00)

As mentioned earlier the hashpoint was next to a military barracks, but after having checked Google Maps (Satellite view) it seemed to be in some backyard/garden. Micsnare got on her red Vespa GTS and drove to the closest point possible. Arriving at the hashsite she could see that the hashpoint was still 2 kilometers away, and decided to walk the rest of it on a pavement that led to a housing area. After having passed that military barracks she knew that the hashpoint must be directly behind the housing area, accessible by the public. Yipeeee! The housing area was quiet and not busy at all, which is obviously the best condition for hashing. The hashsite was beautiful, probably one of the nicest locations to enjoy the nice weather. The weather was sunny and almost 30° Celcius, which is quite warm.

After doing the little hashdance and taking some pictures and posting them to the wiki, Micsnare happily made her way back to the hashbike.

It's better to let the pictures speak for themselves.... enjoy!

Tracklog

No tracklog this time, because Micsnare forgot to start the tracking when she left the house -- sorry :(
