Expedition

The weather was very cloudy but dry and I used the lunch break to go outdoors. I reached the meadow at 12:30. I took my boots because of the wet gras. The narrow but long meadow is a little natural reserve between the fields next to it.

The hashpoint is situated near the oldest and biggest tree. After I 'danced' a little, to find the best reading for a screenshot. Then I took some fotos, did a little diabolo juggling (see [homepage]) an hurried back to work.

I had not enough time to get to the final of the geocache [[1]] about 300 m from the hashpoint.

-The field was easy to be found, but fresh sowed barley or rye grew there as little plants. Since I don't like to tramp onto my future  beer or bread (or worse to perform the 'GPS dance' on it), I had to keep on traktor tracks crossing the field. And I also do not need to encounter a blustering German farmer.^^ One muggel who asked me, what I was seeking here was enough for this afternoon.
-I tried three traktor tracks until I found out which would lead   next to the hashpoint. So the GPS device at least displayed about 9.3 m to the point with an accuracy of 4 m. Good that I had rubber boots in the car and best to wear them here!
+I had not enough time to get to the final of the geocache [[http://coord.info/GC27GXQ|GC27GXQ]] about 300 m from the hashpoint.
-About 0.9 km from the hashpoint, but in direct sight (in the west, at the edge of the wood) was the [http://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC36MH4_3-2-1-go GC36MH4] geocache which we could not log in april, because a hunter with gun sat next to it on a little 	raised hide. But now it was to be found without the hunter.

-After this I had some time near the harbour of [[wikipedia:Gernsheim|Gernsheim]], watchng a container ship to be loaded, the ferry sailing across the river and the calm streaming of the Rhine River during sunset.
