Expedition

2014-04-05 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 7807.jpg I started to hitchhike at Kaufungen-Papierfabrik at 12:30. After one minute a car stopped and I got a lift to Großalmerode. As many times I wanted to explain my quest to the driver. But soon as I used the word geohashing, the driver said he know about the game. As always I understood that the driver is thinking about geocashing and I wanted to correct him. But he stayed at his statement, that he knows about geohashing. And he told me, that he has a friend in Hamburg, who does sometimes geohashing. Then he told me, that his sons do geocashing and I understood, that he knew the difference. This driver brought me to Epterode to the former railway station, where I arrived and started to walk at 12:53.
2014-04-05 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 7823.jpg Then I walked through Epterode. The road itself was signed as a county road, but at the end of the village the county road ended too.
2014-04-05 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 7845.jpg 2014-04-05 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 7850.jpg Behind the hill I had a first look to Laudenbach. As I passed Laudenbach I had a first look to the railway (here on the bridge).
2014-04-05 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 7872.jpg Then I walked along the track and at least I was able to reach the hash by five meters.
