Location

At the Schlagbaumsweg in Köln.

Participants

Plans

A one day hitchhiking tour. Kassel - Köln and retour.

Expedition

I left home at 9 o'clock, because I calculated seven hours for the whole trip to Köln. But I had short waiting times at four places and I arrived at 13:15 behind an old shoping center in Köln. I walked to the hash and arrived very early. I took the usual photos. Then I asked me: It's Saturday. I want to make a xkcd meetup. I have to wait for two hours. So I made a walk around the motorway interchange Köln-Ost. And arrived again at the hash at hash o'clock. Afterwards I walked to the Mülheimer Zubringer, which is my preferred hitchhiking spot to the northeast, and hitchhiked home, arriving at Kassel at 20:30.
