Location

The hash lies on the parking place of a shopping area in Bremen.

Participants

Plans

To hitchhike from Kassel to Bremen, to meet some friends at 16:00. A xkcd-meetup.

Expedition

I failed again in hitchhiking. I left home at 8:50, started to hitchhike, but then I had to wait for a lift at the service station for three hours and then I got a truck to the service station Allertal, where I arrived at 16:00. I arrived at 17:00 in Bremen, by bus I went to the hash and I arrived there at 17:45.

Then I walked to the hash, made a dance, found the coordinates and took some photos.

Afterwards I tried to hitchhike to Köln, but I ended in Verden.
