Expedition

It's been ages since last time I had a weekend with nothing planned, nice weather, and a nearby geohash. But this week I'm lucky, because there isn't one but two geohashes nearby.

I cycled from Sélestat to Bergheim, forgot to stop, continued for a couple of kilometres before realising my mistakes and heading back to the coordinates. I still managed to arrive in time for the Saturday meetup.

I left my bicycle at the end of a short farm track, jumped over a narrow stream, walked along the railway, then trod carefully up to the coordinates. After recording proof and waiting a few minutes for some latecomer to arrive, I visited Bergheim, then continued toward Ostheim to have a look a tomorrow's coordinates.
