Plans

I am hitchhiking to Eisenach and Wilhelmsthal. Wait for 16:00 as to become a xkcd meetup.

Expedition

	I left home at 10:00. Shortly before I started to hitchhike I found a second use for thickets and index pages of road maps after a wrong breakfast. At Hessisch Lichtenau I had to wait for 1 3/4 hours for the next lift. After two more lifts I arrived at Hohe Sonne. At this place the hiking trail Rennsteig crosses the national road B19 and I thought, this would be a good place for starting my walk to Wilhelmsthal. But in the forest I got lost. Several times I took the wrong branches. At least I arrived back at Hohe Sonne at 16:10. Then I started to hurry to Wilhelmsthal. At 16:32 I had the first view to the lake.
		Some minutes later I arrived at a shelter above Wilhelmsthal. I had a view to the hash.
		I found a geocache at the shelter.
		Then I walked further and I found the hash. Because I was an hour too late, this is no xkcd meetup.
		The hash lied at the hedge south of the gate.
		The geohasher and the proof. Today no proof for the dance but for the detours in the forest.
		View to the geocache. Do you see the small blue box?
		View to the educational center with the hash at the left side.
		View to the houses besides the castle.
		Because of the anger I got from the detours I took all the waste I found in the forest out of it.
