AND ANOTHER THREE FROM KATERINA

1. The 1896 Olympics Marle Stadium, Athens,

I ran in this Stadium (in 1986, not 1896). Compared to modern track and field stadia (?) it has an unconventional shape  - 2 very long straights, and two very short bends. I saw a group of athletes traing there and joned in. After running a few laps, I was getting used to the long straights and short bends, but then I was asked to leave as I was not a member of the training group. So I went and ran elsewhere

2. Partial view of Carystos, Greece

Michael, row the boat ashore.

I wondet what the full view of Carystos is like?

3. Paleocastritsa, Greece

No sign of Michael

INTERESTING POSTCARDS IF YOU ARE A SHEEP OR A SHEPHERD, BUT BORING POSTCARDS IF YOU ARE NEITHER

1; 'The shepherd ad his sheep', France

2. Transhumance: Arrival at Bonperrier

'Transhumance' is not some sheep re-gendering programme butis when the sheep are moved up to the mountains, and back down, again to graze.

'Bonperrier' is not some sort of special Perrier bottled water

I have counted 589 sheep here: please can one of you verify that number? Thank you.

HELLO PMH. Sorry about that.

AND HERE BOYS AND GIRLS IS THE BORING CLEVLAND AIRPORT POSTCARD FROM PETER

"Located 6 miles east of Zanesville with modern facilities offers to the SE Ohio area --passengers, freight and charter services as provided by Lake Central Airlines and SE Ohio Air Service, Inc"

Comment by P. M. Wilson on June 9, 2023 at 8:45pm

Hello VMH,  You posted the Zanesville Airport postcard twice, and skipped the Cleveland Airport postcard.  (Not that the Zanesville postcard isn't worth posting twice!)  PMW in beautiful Ohio, USA.
