Expedition

Fippe

In the early morning, I cycled to Osnabrück Central, took the train via Bremen and Hamburg-Harburg to Hamburg-Eidelstedt and walked the rest of the distance.

Before taking the most obvious approach from the south, I wanted to check if an approach from the north or the east was possible, so I entered the Hornbach's parking lot. After realizing that there was no connection to the building's southern wall from there, I tried circumcenting the store counter-clockwise, but ran into a gate north of the building. Fine, I'll approach from the south.

The street leading up to the building from the south ends in a cul-de-sac, which is where the coordinates were located. There was a fence to the east, but I was able to locate the coordinates west of it, and recorded proof.

Not long after, π π π arrived, and he located the coordinates and recorded proof too. He also has a photo of both of our feet on site.

We figured that nobody else was going to join us, so we walked to the Hamburg-Elbgaustraße station and took the train to Hamburg Central. There, we had a good time exploring the Harry Potter store, and also discussed Geohashing Day 2024 in Germany before our ways separated. I took the train via Bremen to Osnabrück Central and cycled back home.
