Location

In a park 'Louisa' in the middle of Frankfurt.

Participants

Plans

Mampfred and LadyBB

We need to go to Frankfurt anyway so we'll go early and visit the hash around 4 pm. Update: we'll pick up QuarterCacher and his wife on the way, meetup on the way :)

Expedition

Mampfred and LadyBB

Worked out as expected. After talking to QuarterCacher got a call from Rincewind as well, he turned up about 5 minutes before us. The hash was only about 40 meters off a track in the park so we left a marker and took a group shot (which reminds me: can somebody send me the shot so I can upload it please?).

This was probably the biggest meetup in 50,8 yet so congrats to everyone :)

A couple of us picked up some trash (photo to come) and we then proceeded to do the GC2G320 geocache at the nearby racetrack and actually had a coffee together at the restaurant before we went our seperate ways again.
