A Shelter of Humanitarian Values – Platres 21 Oct.

There was a very large turnout for the activity at the two waterfalls at Platres on 21 October, and the mood was vibrant. All participants made the most of their time, in the shelter of their favourite Club, in a week that humanitarian values were strongly tarnished, with the bombardment of one hospital and one church. Compliments to Anna for the photos. Join us next here https://cyprus-strollers.org/activities-description/pedoulas-xylogefyro-29-oct/  

P. Nigra, but not quite Black – Prodromos 7 Oct.

Humour characterizes the interactions between members of this Club regularly, and sets us apart. The hike of 7 Oct. traversed the northern side of the mountains of Prodromos, and reached a dense forest of majestic black pine, causing the commentary by some members that these trees may be officially named Pinus Nigra, but entirely black they are not; something like the second full moon of August, which even though referred to as blue moon, it is anything but blue, another participant quipped. The day was completed with such sparkle while hiking and also at the table. Compliments to Eleni, Anna and Antonis for the photos.

Exuberance all around – Persephone 1 Oct.

A very large number of members participated in the 1st hike of Season 19 on Troodos on 1st Oct. There was exuberance all around, both while hiking and especially over lunch; something remarkable, considering the gathering consisted of people of 12 different nationalities, Club regulars and also newcomers. No matter what everyone’s summer was, it felt as if everybody was relieved to be hiking in cool weather. Compliments to Nicos for leading this event.
