Plans

To cure insomnia by a long walk.

Expedition

~7h walk home-hash-home. ~35km.

GPS refused to behave at the hash, probably because of the nearby Shuhov tower (TV/radio transmission), so categorising it as no GPS expedition.

The hash turned out to be not on the sidewalk but just at the side of the street, since sidewalt separated from the street by some meters of trees an what would be grass in summer.
