Location

Tübingen, inside a biotechnology building

Participants

Ekorren didn't seriously try to get in there.

Expedition

Well, it was too close to not go although the expedition was doomed to fail from the beginning. I didn't see any chances for an ambassador geohash since this is a building with rather high security, also I didn't really even want to try. So I just went in the afternoon when it was most convenient for me. Took the bike and sneaked up the mountain.

Of course the door was closed. Of course the building was just an ugly concrete cube. Being that, it obviously got a prize for setting an example at building. Must have been for setting a bad example.

There was that space between the two wings which would be the closest reachable point to the hash, so I went there. GPS reception was, as expected, just ugly down there, the GPS dance sent me back and forth, and I couldn't really tell at which point in the building the hash should be... heck, it might even have been possible to capture a 0m distance if I had seriously tried. Or even cared.
