Expedition

Today's point was reasonably close by, so Kat and I decided to go there around noon. We drove the hashmobile to Hoogvliet and parked in a car park on the edge of town. We then walked through a forest/park towards the point. It was located on the edge of the water, but it wasn't clear from satellite images whether it would be reachable. Turns out, it wasn't. Oh well. Kat and I then walked around a bit more and drove on to Barendrecht, where we had lunch at IKEA.
