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

 

Doggy Style relaxing on board

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 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)
