Expedition

		It was Geohashing Day and I was near Hamburg. Google Maps showed a clutch of sand and I thought this would help me to reach the hash. I traveled to Hamburg, and by underground and bus I arrived about a kilometer away. I walked to the hash and the first glance of the area showed me meadows with fences, horses, water on the grass and airport lighting. As coming nearer to the hash I found a new hall, maybe just at the hash.
		But I didn't give up. I walked nearer and at 62 meters away I found the hash at the outside of the hall. But on the yard. And I thought about the construction works: ready or not? And simply walked onto the yard, looking for the hash. And I found there a security guy. I just told him: "I have to go. It's a game." And walked around the containers, looking for the hash. I found steps of someone, who walked there before me.
		At an edge of one of the containers I got a three meter shot, but I didn't want to dance around for a better one.
		Then I walked away to the southeastern corner of the area and took the usual photos: the west, the north,
		the east and the south.
		Because I was north of the northern runway of the airport Hamburg-Fuhlsbüttel, always planes were flying around.
