Expedition
Danatar
I was in Potsdam to buy a Flügelhorn, then I visited Sanssouci before starting back towards Dresden. After driving on the A10 Autobahn for a while, I didn't use the interchange to the A12 at Lübbenau but instead took the exit after that, then the state road to Mlode, where I parked the car on the track leading towards the hashpoint and started walking. When I had walked just a few meters, I saw a wild boar step on the track about 100-150 meters in front of me and stop there. I didn't have my camera out yet, so I tried to do that slowly. By the time the camera was ready a few seconds later the boar had already resumed its way. I walked towards where it had been slowly and (rather) silently with my camera ready but I didn't see it again. Shortly after I reached an intersection where the way straight ahead was forbidden due to danger from an old mining site (I think sand mining) and I took the track to the left. Not much later another track branched off of that, becoming smaller over time until I reached the area near the hashpoint. On the northern side was a huge meadow and on the southern side a forest. The hashpoint was at the second line of trees and I found it easily some minutes before 4 pm.
After taking pictures I played a bit on my new Flügelhorn, letting the sound echo through nature and being happy about how it sounded better than my old one. Then I climbed on the raised stand that overlooked the meadow. In the distance I saw big birds that after intense zooming with my camera turned out to be cranes. Then I walked back to the car and continued my journey to Dresden.
