Farewell Black Mamba (Play the video)

 


Mountain Goat's trail

 

 

The Run

 



We start at the site of the abandoned 120 furniture factories showrooms
(Sadly we discover that the McDonalds nearby is no more)

 

Is this what Mountain Goat calls flat?

 

Great view of Mount Parnitha in the background

 

 

Getting a bit tricky

 

Rim Job scurries down through the earthern channel

 

Rear Entry's turn to cross the stream

 

 

Looking back topwards the ex-factory showrooms & showing the vibrant greenery

 


Hashers veering to the left and avoiding this ramp

 

Avoiding the mud

 

Are you on?

 

Let's get off the rails - there's a train coming!

 

 

Black Mamba doing his thing on the ramp (see video)

 

Spring time flowers everywhere

 

Wide open spaces

 

Rim Job & Mountain Goat

 

Rim Job followed by Mad Dog

 

Great hashing country

 

Helicopter enthusiast prepares his model and then shows us some amazing flying
(including flying backwards upside-down)

 

A bit of short-cutting?

 

We find a tortoise & Rear Entry holds it up for a photo

 

The Tortoise and the Hare (get it?)

 

Into the shiggy

 

Rocket Socket getting the thorn treatment

 

 

Rear Entry returns climbing a steep ramp after missing the trail

 

Not a good time to cross the railyway tracks!

 

On down...

 

...and on up again

 

 


Judas trees in bloom (traditionally at Easter time)

 

 

Back over the stream

 

Mad Dog stretches out to reach the stepping stone

 

 

The Circle

 

 

Mountain Goat - the hare's down-in-one

 

Drinking beer is no punishment after a run on this hot day

 

Bouboulina gets a Flying Club DIO for falling and cutting her elbow

 

The snake was THIS long say's Black Mamba

 

Black Mamba's farewell DIO - he's just returned from Toronto, Canada
and is retiring to Edinburgh, Scotland

 


Thrice has emerged again with the warm weather (has he been hibernating?)

 

 

Mad Dog, Black Mamba and Thrice

 

 

Mad Dog is wearing new trainers so...

 

...he has to drink from one of them. Luckily they are not muddy inside!

The Taverna

 

En Athames taverna

On the National Road sliproad, heading towards Athens from the western side of the Varibobi bridge.

Good value. Lots of meat, etc for 12 euros each
