Expedition

2016-04-12 51 8 GeorgDerReisende 0493.jpg 2016-04-12 51 8 GeorgDerReisende 0515.jpg I left home at 10:20 and started to hitchhike at 11:30. I arrived at Detmold at 13:50.
2016-04-12 51 8 GeorgDerReisende 0533.jpg 2016-04-12 51 8 GeorgDerReisende 0541.jpg In the past I visited Detmold several times. All these times I got lifts to some arrival points, walked to the railway station, the tourist information or the bus company, bought a timetable and traveled further. Seldom I took photos. Now I have the possibilty to take a photo for every step. So I do. Nearly. Today I walked along the Hornsche Straße from Remmighausen to the city.

2016-04-12 51 8 GeorgDerReisende 0737.jpg To hitchhike home I took the road along Hameln and Hildesheim. At the service station Hildesheimer Börde I had to wait for 2 1/2 hours. One reason could be the high petrol prices there or an important football game on tv. On the whole it was a tron, but I don't have a proof of it.
