Cafe Mezedopolio Sevasti

Meeting point on Saturday, 1st of February at 10am at the Cafe Mezedopolio Sevasti in Kalamaki.
In case of bad weather, the memory walk in honour of Manfred will be postponed to another day, either before or after Saturday.
From the meeting point, we will cross the main road and walk up the mountain towards Achladochori.
At the oil mill, we cross the road and continue along the road, passing the goats where we will spread Manfred's ashes and plant an olive tree on the land of Karin's daughter Dominique.
Our banana break will also take place there.
Afterwards, we will walk down the mountain towards Kalamaki where we will toast Manfred in the Cafe Mezedopolio Sevasti.

The chronicle of today
Today was a very special walk.
Our Karin organised a wonderful walk, halfway through where we gathered to plant an olive tree and toasted with background music in memory of her dead husband and our dear friend Manfred.
31 Freewalkers met for the walk and three more dear friends of Karin and Manfred joined in at his new special place.
The weather was perfect, a beautiful, sunny day.

Karin wished to add a few words of thanks to this text:
It was a very nice farewell party.
34 friends of us, champagne, sun, music and lunch afterwards in Manfred's favorite tavern.
In this moment I felt that he liked it too, it was exactly what he wanted.
Lots of dear friends around him.
Lots of fond memories of him.
Very touching for everyone.
Many thanks to all of you for sharing this memorable moment.
