Expedition

This hash was a little bit different than most hash points I've visited. First, it was actually located at a road and not in a forest or on a field as most hash points tend be located. Second, it was very sponteneous. I had had an exam this morning and was sitting at the campus all the rest of the day, preparing for the next exam two days later. Also, my old bike (actually, it had more similarities with a scrap heap than a bike) had expressed some intense death wish on my way to the campus that morning which led me to giving it away to a friend, who (for some indeed unknown reason) wanted it very badly.

So, with a lot to do and no bike, this was definitely not the day to do a lot of hashing. However, at 4 pm, I've grew so weary of studies that I simply went to the computer room, printed a google map of the vicinity of the hash point, went to the closest tram stop and jump on the first tram that came along.

The wheather was nice, and it was interesting to see a new part of the city I probably would never had seen otherwise. The hash point was located in a shrubery right outside a big house along a road and was completely non-problematic to reach. However, some pedestrians passing by looked a little strange on me, when circling a shrubbery outside a house in the middle of the city, trying to get some at least viewable pictures out of the useless device that pretends to be a camera in my mobile phone.

After this I took the bus and tram back to chalmers again. Happy, that I at least got something interesting done that afternoon.
