Plans

To hitchhike from 2014-02-23 49 8 to Dortmund, visiting the hash, and to hitchhike home.

Expedition

After visiting 2014-02-23 49 8 I decided to make another hash and Dortmund is a little bit on the way from Mannheim to Kassel. From Mannheim I got a lift by Mampfred to the service station Pfungstadt, where I waited for 1 1/2 hours. Then I got a lift with a truck to the service station Wetterau, where I had to wait for another hour. Then I got a lift to the service station Lichtendorf. From there I walked to the quarter of Lichtendorf, from where I took two buses to the Rahestraße.

I found the hash as expected to be about two meters in the house. Dancing around the spot didn't lead to a result, because while I was standing near the wall, and the wall made a shadow to the satellites, the marker walked 20 meters away, but away from the wall, not into the house. Only at the edge I could get a result of four meters.

Afterwards I walked to the petrol station at the beginning of the motorway to Kassel. After 20 minutes of waiting I got a car to the service station Soester Börde and after another 20 minutes I got a lift to Kassel.
