Location

The hash lies at the street Burgweg in Lohne (Oldenburg).

Participants

Plans

I will hitchhike! Today from Kassel via Göttingen, Hannover, Nienburg and Diepholz.

Expedition

I left home at 11:25 and started to hitchhike at the Dresdener Straße at 12:05, after some minutes I got a lift to the service station Göttingen, where I waited about 30 minutes. This lift brought me to the service station Allertal, where I waited again for an hour, but this car brought me to the center of Verden, then I walked through the city, got then a lift to Hassel, where I waited again for an hour. With the next car I reached the national road B6 and I walked a kilometer. At that place I waited 4 hours (twenty years ago and on daylight I usually waited there five minutes for a lift to Bassum). Then at the last possible minute I got a lift to Vechta and this driver brought me to Lohne, where I arrived at 23:42 with 1.36 kilometers away from the hash. I walked to the hash and arrived there at 23:56 and stayed there for midnight.

Then I looked for a shelter to spend there the night. That one which my Garmin showed was three kilometers away, but after 500 meters I have found a small one. The next morning I decided not to go to the wanted hashes at 2013-10-21 50 6 (Lechenich), 2013-10-21 50 7 (Hövels) and 2013-10-21 50 8 (Marburg), but to go home directly. I had to wait at the service station Tecklenburger Land for one hour and at the service station Münsterland for two hours. At the service station Lichtendorf I waited for another two hours, and no driver told me to drive to Kassel. During this waiting time two groups of hitchhikers to Hannover passed, a group of two and a group of three. Then I decided to spend the night there/nearby. I found a nice looking place in a forest.

The second morning (Tuesday) I found me beyond autumn colored leaves. I stayed at this beautiful place until noon. Then I started my jouney home and arrived there at 17:15.
