Plans

I didn't want to go hashing this weekend, but then Ekorren wrote that he is in Heidelberg this weekend, and I wondered if we could meet somewhere. The only possibility was the hash on Sunday, but Ekorren was to busy on Sunday. Nevertheless, some plans has been made and the weather was fine (very windy, quite cold, but sunny at least), and so I decided to do some bull-riding today.

Expedition

Not so much to tell: on my way to the hash the wind came from rear and made riding very easy and fast. Soon I reached Malsch, where I see a sign to a crib with living animals. Of course I had to see this, and so a little detour was made. Soon I found a little zoo with no fee and so I entered and found some birds, some more small animals and a crib with two donkeys and some goats. I took some photos and continued my ride. After a while I came near the hashpoint and could ride up to 100m to it. I tethered my mount and walked for a short while. Soon I saw a very muddy fresh ploughed field. I walked along it but couldn't get nearer than 25 m without going into it. I hesitated for a while but then I went into it. It was not as bad as it looked like. Without any dancing I reached a 0. Happy about that I took some photos and quickly walked back. The good luck from the way to the hash turned now, as the wind came from the front for the way home, but with the help of my bull I made it anyway (although we are both very exhausted now).
