Location
In a sort of children's playground on the northern edge of Kibbuz Tzor'a.
Participants
Plans
I have to both drop off and pick up artwork in Tel Aviv. Luckily both this point and 2024-06-18_32_34 are not too far away from bus stops, and I can take trains 90% of the way to each one. So I'll pick up the artwork and then attempt both hashes while lugging it around.
Expedition
Having taken a train from the previous hash, I arrived in Beit Shemesh. Buses to Tzor'a are infrequent, so I spent 45 minutes at the bus station getting some work done before it arrived.
I was a little bit nervous about this - Moovit marks this route as "by invitation", which (I have discovered in previous hashes) may mean that the bus is only run if someone calls up the company two hours in advance and says they need it to run that route. While waiting for the Beit Shemesh train, I had done some research and was fairly sure that only certain towns on the route were considered "by invitation", and that the bus would show up at the very least in Beit Shemesh on its own. But I wasn't certain.
The bus did in fact arrive, but the bus driver gave me a moment's pause when I boarded, asking me what my destination was. But on talking to him, it turns out this was because people apparently get confused often about this particular route and board it in the wrong direction or some such. I confirmed with him that I would not need to do anything special when I took the return bus from Tzor'a.
When I got off in Tzor'a, I discovered that the kibbutz's layout is *extremely* annoying, and I had to take a very roundabout walking route, lugging my wife's artwork the whole way, to get to the playground. In fact, the playground was up a steep dirt path, past the last street in the kibbutz, in a place where it seemed no child had ever been or would ever go. And the point was even farther than that. I took the panorama, and then, exhausted, sat down for a bit on a slide.
The way home went fine. I checked when the next bus from the Kibbutz was, left the playground well in advance so I could be sure to reach the bus stop in time, got off in Beit Shemesh, and switched to a bus to Jerusalem.
