Participants
Plans
- Gaboversta is considering attempting this geohash, though this does hinge on getting up somewhat early and trains running sort of on time. If everything works out, I should be there at around 15:15 local time.
- This would also net me a nice 4-in-a-row achievement, if I am not mistaken.
- GeorgDerReisende will be there around 15:15, too.
Expedition
Gaboversta
After announcing my plans I was at first not sure whether I would actually attempt this, but once Fippe briefly indicated interest the plans solidified, further reinforced by GeorgDerReisende announcing similar plans.
My journey to the hash was rather unremarkable, everything worked out. Two odd things stood out to me: The volume of the announcements on the RE2 that took me from Osnabrück to Wanne-Eickel was turned to what I truly hope is the maximum, and things where going on in Osnabrück main station.
Upon timely arrival from Oldenburg to Osnabrück, I observed federal police folks erecting barriers at various places throughout the station, with no obvious indication as to why. On my return trip, the barriers had moved, mostly out of the way, but the presence of the police was drastically increased. I debated asking them what was going on, but figured it was probably just preparations due to some high stakes football game and moved on.
GeorgDerReisende was already waiting for me at the rather unremarkable location of the hash when I got there. Some pictures where taken and we left for the train station, just narrowly missing one of the rare Sunday busses. While waiting for the next one friendly conversation was made.
- I myself have not taken a picture of the two of us, but GeorgDerReisende did. Once that is uploaded I intend on claiming the meet-up achievement, in addition to 4-in-a-row.
