Expedition

RecentlyChanged telling his Intro

I started going out of the house at 4.45 pm, taking the tram to Karlsruhe. The tram was surprisingly fast at the mainstation of Karlsruhe, because it was the only fast Express train of the day (no proof) so I thought I'd walk the rest of it, because I didn't want to be early at the home of Deuded. I walked into a mean row of streets. on every crossroads I thought something like "going left or straight is a little bit to far west, but right is way to far east, so I walked a totally idiotic way and ended up at the first tram station I found, called "Karlstor". There I called Deuded that he can tell me where I have to go. He looked for a tram to his home and called me back a minute or so later. He asked: is there a line number 6 arriving? I told him yes, because on both sides of the station, a tram with this number was arriving, and after having changed the sides really fast, I finally made it. Five minutes or so later I was back at the main station and another three or four I was at his home. There he awaited me and we had to bike really fast back again to the mainstation. There we needed lot of time to find the right platform, because it's number was 101 (all the others have numbers from 1 to 12). It was well hidden, but we made it about 1 minute before departure. Now we were ready to hash :)
