MikroKosmos, do you plan on coming? If yes, tell me when under this message, I'm very flexible. I don't want to miss you for the seventh time.

I checked the daily coordinates just at 18 o'clock. A quick look at the current events page showed a message/question by π π π. I guessed the time to cycle there, wrote a note for him and packed my gear. After a last look for response, I cycled on wet streets towards the airport and reached the area at 18:45, as calculated before.
As the hash lay just 5 meters behind a surrounding ditch on grassland and even directly(!) behind a passage over that ditch, it was quite easy to reach. I found traces of π π π - his usual cross - at the hash. There, my GPSr toggled between 0 and 1 meters distance. At 18:52, after taking some photos, I cycled back home - sure of having missed π π π. :-(
Seems, yesterday evening I didn't check todays coordinates well. The page with the coordinates is already one of my browser's starting pages. I will add the "current events" page, too.

There was no response from MikroKosmos by 3:20 pm and I didn't want to wait too long, so I just went there at meetup time. I took the A1, A2 and U1 trains to Ochsenzoll and then cycled 4.1 km to the hash, which lay on a high-grown meadow right next to the Ohechaussee, a busy street. I passed only 350 m from my grandparents' house, but couldn't visit as they were on holiday. There was an entry to the hashfield with a bridge over the ditch right in front of the hash and I only had to walk a few metres, it hardly could've been any more convenient. I took pictures and went to the nearby Rugenwedelsau creek at the edge of the meadow. Just as I took photos, my phone went black due to low battery (at 5 %!) before I could finish, I had apparently forgotten to charge it the night before.
So I had to discard my plans of visiting the Geohashing Day 2017 retrohash, which I'd considered going for on Geohashing Day a week before if that day's hash had been unreachable and which was only 340 m from today's hash, quite a coincidence. I laid a cross at the hash for MikroKosmos, should he arrive later, and wanted to cycle to Garstedt station. But I had to do so by memory since my phone was dead, and because I didn't want to just follow the main road I, of course, got lost (but I didn't mind that much). On the way, I ate one of the best apples I've ever had. Eventually, I found a bus stop with a map and noticed I was only one street over from the station. As it is located in a shopping centre, I figured I might as well go to the bookstore and look around or read a little – I don't think I'd been to a large shopping centre since the pandemic hit. So I spent some time in the Herold Center and then took the same three trains home.
Someday we'll meet again, MikroKosmos. It would be helpful if you noticed before 6 pm, I'll make sure to always create the wiki page beforehand so we can coordinate.
