Ferry from Mantoudi port to Skiathos
The
14.30 ferry arrived late at Mantoudi and by the time it reached Skiathos it
was running very late
- and by then the weather had changed to rain.
The Proteus
Looks difficult to use - and a bit public
Marco, it says "No Entry"
Stopping at the island of Alonnisos

Loading all the trucks took a long time as they all had to back-in up the ship's ramp.
What better way to pass the time on board than to drink Gin and Tonic
Doormat kindly supplied the drinks
Good stuff!
- ARRIVAL AT THE PORT OF SKIATHOS -

The Run
Scheduled start at 17.30 - so those on the ferry missed the run
The trail as recorded by Pussy Basher on his Garmin watch
Drinks on Strawberry Foreskin's boat
(He, leanover and two family members had sailed to Skiathos from Aegina to join in the hash weekend)
The Circle
The Taverna
Nice food, presentation and service but a bit pricy at 19 euros each
Fair Cop's card game for the weekend
Nasal Ninja and Queen Of Farts invented a game of matching parts of hash names to create new ones -
- with the best one receiving the prize of a bottle of Champagne at dinner on Saturday evening.
(The above is just an example and was not the winner)

The Programme
Unfortunately the ferry from Mantoudi was very late in arriving in Skiathos so the hashers
arriving by ferry missed joining the hash at 18.30 and had to go directly to the taverna.
(However, considering the amount of booze consumed at Mantoudi and on the ferry they would not have been in a state to run)
