Participants

Plans

Since it is the weekend, I thought I might as well go expeditioning. And since that graticule is still on my list, I don't even have to venture far.

  • Trains to Gol on Saturday: 8:13, 9:38, 12:22, duration 1:30.
  • Walking distance: ca. 15km.
  • Trains back on Sunday: 11:41, 14:23, 19:38, 20:28

Still hoping that the weather gets a bit more interesting than just now.
