A Greek bachelor party
My last night out in Athens was to a rebetiko place called Pinelopi & Mnistires, the restaurant is a fairly small one, the tables were very close to each other and it felt like its one big table and everybody is sitting next to each other like one big party family.
There was a round 60 people in the restaurant, we were 8, and next to us around 20 Athenian women throwing a bachelor party for one of them – well it started that way but after some time the whole restaurant was part of that party-.
Back to reality
Watching all these bikers in Athens riding made miss riding a lot, and wanting to go back to Kuwait to ride my bike…the way motorcyclists ride in Athens is as if they are running away from a volcano, it doesn’t matter if they are ridding a 1300cc bike or just the 50cc delivery scooter…they all ride with an attitude.
Am back in Kuwait now and can’t wait to ride the beast, but unfortunately 2 of my friends crashed a couple of days ago, believe it or not they collided into each other…nothing serious just a couple of cracked rips, a broken arm, and a scare.
The above photo is for a used Desmosedici at a Ducati dealer in Athens with only 600km, they are asking 60000 Euros for it.

This one is for you Ruby Woo, sorry for the video quality but we were sitting a bit far up.
Men At Work
I shot this photo in Athens, two Policemen writing a ticket for double parked car.
The nice thing about the Police there is that they use motorcycles a lot, and can get to you in no time, the lady you see in the photo wanted to leave but couldn’t because someone blocked her so she called them and it took around 5 minutes for them to be there.
The driver of the double parked car came running -a lady too-, but it was too late so she got the ticket and a nice shower.
The Greek Paraolimpics Team
This is the Greek Paraolimpics team, i was leaving Athens to Kuwait yesterday when i met them at the airport they were leaving to China to represent Greece at the Paraolimpics.
It was quite a scene.. almost everyone at the airport gathered around them to greet and cheer them, and of course like any Arab i heard the noise and rushed to find out what’s happing.
A Double
After last night, I had to make my Cuppa Freddo a double.
