Location

Sint Martinuslaan in Voorburg, South Holland province.

Participants

Expedition

Today's hash was in a residential area in Voorburg. The exact point was about 6 km as the crow flies from my workplace, so I decided to go there on my bike after work. Our last meeting of the week finished at about 17:10 and I set off soon after. The weather was fine and the ride was uneventful. I reached the point, which was in a kind of park next to some apartment buildings, took some photos and then got back on the road. I was quite familiar with the area, since it was pretty much on the route I rode to school. For old times' sake I re-visited that route, had a look at my old school (the building of which has been modernized almost to the point that it isn't recognizable anymore), then got lost and spent about ten minutes finding my way home again.

Photos

The bit of Sint Martinuslaan where the hash was located.
The point is near the second tree, on the right side of the skip.
