Expedition

After drinking two beer and eating a little bit we made our way home to Deuded to take his camera and a thermometer (about 4°C near the Hash, forgot the proof). Then we walked to the next tram station at about 11:35 pm. Okay we ran, but it was senseless because the tram was late for about 5 minutes. From the tramstation we headed directly into the graveyard. Main gate closed, but smaller ones where open as we had hoped. Then we walked a little bit through the Graveyard but it seemed to be impossible to came more near than 75 meters. We searched a while for a way because there had to be one, on Gmaps we had seen that the Hash lays between graves. After a while we saw a little church behind the walls of the graveyard and we decided to go there. A gate blocked our way, after thinking about walking around or just climb over it (around was legal) RC tried to open it: "Hey it s open !"-:D-feeling. After we were on this separated yard, we thought it was an older or newer part of the main graveyard, the Hash was really easy to find. We were there at about three or four minutes after we heard the bells, but we totally forgot to take a proof, hoping you trust us this far :). We took our proof and the proof for the coffin-potatoes. After the second picture we realized that the letters on the gravestones were partly hebrew. Until that we weren't aware that it was an Jewish graveyard. We took the last photos and walked straight back to the tramstation RC needed to come home.

This was a Geohashing night, wow!
