Expedition

2014-05-17 51 7 GeorgDerReisende 0674.jpg 2014-05-17 51 7 GeorgDerReisende 0675.jpg I left my home at 1015, went by tram and bus to the Wilhelmshöhe junction of the A44 and started there to hitchhike. With five cars I arrived at the place of the hash. I started with the tarred way and ended at a blocked car parking.

2014-05-17 51 7 GeorgDerReisende 0704.jpg 2014-05-17 51 7 GeorgDerReisende 0705.jpg To go for Idstein to visit 2014-05-18 50 8, I started to hitchhike just at this place. At first I got a car to the motorway junction Lavesum at the A43. There, latest, I found out, that there was a service station nearby and while walking to it, I had a view to the landscape, from which I seemed that it looks like the forest where the hash was in. At home I found out that it was another forest, but think about it.
