The hike of 17 May, at Platys, was a marvelous experience, viewed on several grounds: for the landscape, in a thick forest along the banks of a river; for the dry weather, under the canopy of the trees; for the lively singing of the birds, a consolation for the failure of the ‘Jalla’ and ‘Ferto’ songs at the Eurovision contest; for the calibre of participants and the joyful conversations. Compliments to Martin for co-leading the activity and to Elena and Petros for the photos.

Kryos Potamos had a larger than usual flow on 9 May, and Strollers were assisting one another in crossing it at several points.

There was beauty all around at Gerakies and Moutoullas on 4 April. In the attitude of all participants, in the smiling face of Eleana, on her first hike, an inspiration for all, and in the landscape.
