Plans

I wanted to hitchhike to Höxter, for doing some special things, and returning home. Due to the early darkness I didn't want a xkcd-meetup, because with a later return it seemed to me, that I could nor reach Kassel in time.

Expedition

2014-01-11 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 5039.jpg I left home at 10:20, took the tram 3 and the bus 100 to Espenau-Schäferberg. From there I started to hitchhike. After 15 minutes I got a lift direct to Bad Karlshafen.

2014-01-11 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 5068.jpg I arrived at 13:10 at Höxter. Ten minutes later I was 860 meters away from the hash.

2014-01-11 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 5111.jpg 2014-01-11 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 5091.jpg So I walked back, around the place, across the meadows and I arrived at the hash.

2014-01-11 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 5174.jpg Just at the moment when I started to return, it began to rain. So I didn't care of the target of the first car and I arrived at a wrong place. So I needed to the hash 3 1/2 hours and for the way home I needed 6 hours. I arrived at a parking site of the motorway with this view to Kassel.
