Plans

Hitchhiking and walking.

Expedition

		I left home at 12, started to hitchhike at 1, and with four cars I arrived at Landau at 14:38. On the way to the hash I took a wrong turn and so I arrived at the hashfield from behind.
		I walked along the street and noticed an electric fence around the field. From the street I got a 25 meter shot and from the field way I got a 43 meter shot.
		Then I looked for a gate in the fence, hoping it was open. While I walked along the field way a man with a tractor came along, drove onto the field, made a turn, and drove away. I saw the gate and I saw the farmers working in the distance and I didn't want to disturb them. I walked back behind the mountain crest, made a big step across the fence and made a quick walk to the hash. I took the usual photos and ran back to the way.

		The geohasher. I took some more photos of the surroundings. Foggy weather, drizzling rain, cold wind. Things like that.
		After hash o'clock I walked to the inner city: Main street and the palace.
		Then I walked back to the national road. High speed, turn to the left and only little place to stop. After 30 minutes a car stopped for Wolfhagen and with a second car I arrived at Kassel at 17:45.
