Expedition

Usually it would be rude to go geohasing on my hashiversary, but Dana was working late, and I could go geohashing today. I took the train to Hessisch Oldendorf.

The distance between the train station and the Geohash is less than a kilometer, but since the river Weser being inbetween multiplies it. I crossed the Weser at a bridge leading over it, and afterwards turned right walking between fields. The navigation told me to go though the town, but there was only a small stream in my way, so I thought maybe there would be a small bridge or perhaps I could even jump over the stream.

It turns out I could not jump over the stream, and there also was no bridge, at least not a conventional one. However, it seems that Sabine knocked over a tree, which fell right over the stream. I could walk over the tree to the other side.

After walking over some more fields, including one with dead sunflowers, I eventually reached the Geohash. I located the coordinates and recorded proof. Afterwards, I took the same way back to the train station and took the train back to Hannover.
