Day 347




















I caught these lovely ladies having a nap in the middle of the day propped up against their painting. Great work by the Tanka artists guess it was all too much for these Ladies.

Day 168 Marathon






Ladies Crossing

The name Marathon comes from the legend of Pheidippides, a Greek messenger. The legend states that he was sent from the battlefield of Marathon to Athens to announce that the Persians had been defeated in the Battle of Marathon (in which he had just fought),which took place in August or September, 490 BC.

It is said that he ran the entire distance without stopping and burst into the assembly, exclaiming "Νενικήκαμεν" (Nenikékamen, 'We have won.') before collapsing and dying.
