A remote meadow near Münsingen-Magolsheim

Expedition by Ekorren

So this was Geohashing Day. A day so much overloaded by expectations of "do your best expedition ever", "celebrate with everything you have" etc. that it could only not meet the expectations. And when the coordinates came out, they were totally disappointing. Nothing special, just a selection of remote fields and forests in reachable distance.

Ok, I chose a place. I reached it. It was one of my good expeditions. I took an historic train, explored an interesting area, found a triangulation tower, went through a beautiful landscape for hours, found shelter in the middle of nowhere when thunderstorms passed. Under normal circumstances I would probably gladly start writing now, telling you something about the Schwäbische Alb mountains, about the huge abandoned military training ground I circled. But it wasn't any exceptionally special expedition. There was nothing to really celebrate. And right now, I don't feel at all like writing it up. Maybe later. Sorry. Will post pictures soon, anyway.
