Location

Voorburg, South Holland province.

Participants

Expedition

It was a nice sunny Friday, and this hash was within easy cycling distance from my home. So that's what I did: it took about 30 minutes to cover the 9.5 km to the hash, which was located in a park in Voorburg (a leafy suburb of The Hague). The exact point was right next to a little bridge. I took a few pictures, then rode around the area a little. I'm very familiar with this area, as the secondary school I attended is nearby. I then went to do some shopping before riding home again.

Photos

Parked my bike near the hash. The sign says "no dogs allowed", but that didn't stop one gentleman from walking his dog right there about one minute later.
The hash is right there, next to the bridge.
Made it!
Lloyd posing at the hash.
An interesting type of birdhouse nearby.
A bit further on, there is an artificial hill. We're looking right at the hash from the top.

Achievements
