Location

The hash is located in a little wooded area on the edges of Ålstorp, Sweden.

Participants

Erik, going solo this time

Plans

I'm on vacation here in Sweden, staying with family, and checked the hash coordinates the night of the seventeenth. I found they were just a few kilometers away from our place in Löddeköpinge, so I figured I'd bike there in the morning and be back in time for a late morning fika with the family.

Expedition

This one went without a hitch! Obviously I didn't bring my trusty Trek bike to Sweden (not so trusty given my first hash attempt but hey) so, Johan Johansson being home (what your bike doesn't have a name?) I used my grandfather's old cruiser. It was an easy ride up through Lödde, past a friend's plant nursery, and through a few little towns to the hash point. It was a beautiful late summer's day, and a nice morning ride. Quite windy though, which was a bit tough on the return trip. Anyway, I got there around 10:35, having left a bit after 10:00, and followed my phone to a little wooded area near a track where some people were on morning jogs or walks. As usual I haven't got a GPS device, rather expensive as they are, so Google Maps on the phone had to do but I'm pleased enough that I reached the spot. Anyway, at that point I took my photos, had a nice (windy) ride back, and that was it!
