Go ther, find a way inside or at least walk up the funny ramp once more.

Expedition

I know this building! - from the outside... I found there at least two GeoCaches already. I was not sure however if I can enter the building but it is a interesting area to take some pictures. It was once Europe's largest yoghurt factory, but now a art school took it over and drove all the yoghurts out. And now the Geohash, also some kind or art (rightht?), is here and inside "the" city. :-)

First I checked the back entrances which are very close to the hash. But one needs a batch to open the doors and I didn't want to sneak inside. I went up the ramp which was once used by the trucks delivering the cow juice. On the top I took a picture through the gate of the large board which once displayed the train departure times at the main station - before they replaced it with one who also can display advertisements...

On two levels the doors are down a hallway a bit inside the building so I actually could enter the building her for some meters. I reached close enough to be inside the error level of the GPS (under some tons of concrete). But that didn't feel like I reached the hash. So I decided to walk all the way back to the main entrance and give it a shot.

At the main entrance I expected to need to convince some one to let me in. But the door opened for me automatically and no one cared when I walked in. No guard or reception to see - just lots of students. And huge signs promoting to wear masks and clan your hands. But only about 50% of the people actually seam to care.

A long corridor lead to the back of the building where I soon stood on the other side of one of the doors which would not let me in before. And it opened automatically when I approached. As if it would say: "Go out! You'r not belonging here!". I gave it a cold shoulder and just peeked outside to get some orientation on how close I where to the hashpoint. The second lantern from west was a good guidance. Unfortunately, the hashpoint was inside of a classroom where it seams they held some classes.

I went up a level. Maybe even two. The building is quit confusing inside with lots of twisting passages and not a single stair house from the bottom to the top.
