Atene Picnic Area - Like the men in WWII under deprivation and having to make fast time in difficult circumstances, all I kept thinking about was making it to the picnic shelter because by that time I was half done and surely the last half couldn't be worse than the first half. Anyway when I reached the picnic shelter I was more than half through the alotted time so I had to eat while I walked. You can't say that the walk was not beautiful. Look at the native lowland forest of tree ferns and vines. I kept expecting Tarzan to leap out at me. I never did see the blue duck that birdwatchers are always hoping to spot.
