Expedition

I took the train to Bad Pyrmont, and walked the rest of the distance to the coordinates, which was 13 kilometers. Since it was cold, I brought a thermometer to prove a freezing temperature.

First, I walked through the city of Bad Pyrmont. I've been here previously to visit 2018-09-11 51 9. After that, I walked towards Sonneborn, which belongs to Barntrup. Sonneborn of course also is the name of the best politician.

The border between the counties of Hameln-Pyrmont and Lippe, which also is the border between the states of Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia, was somewhere between Bad Pyrmont and Sonneborn, but I did not see any marks.

After leaving the Sonneborn behind me, I alwas already getting close, and eventually reached the site. The coordinates were on a meadow next to a forest. The meadow had a fence around it to keep the animals inside from escaping. However, there were no animals inside, just horse feces. I figured it was okay for me to enter since I was not going to break anything, so I did.

As I expected, the thermometer showed a subzero temperature. After recording proof, I went back to the train station. I experienced the sunset, but this time it was not the sun disappearing behind the horizon, it was me going over a hill.
