#1: There it is !

(visited by A. Dimopulos)

06-Nov-2000 -- When I included the visit to this confluence in my travel plans to an art fair I expected it to be in the middle of some residential area. I was soon proven wrong: it turned out to be a freshly harvested field, quite unpleasant to walk on without boots, because it had rained the night before. However, getting there was no problem, since there is a small agricultural road only 30 meters away.

The confluence point is located close to a rather busy railway line. Behind that there is a Bayer chemical plant, you can see an office building on one of the photos. (Yes, it´s the company that makes Asp***n.)
