When we got to the venue Sunday morning, there were
notes everywhere stating that nudity was not allowed and if witnessed by park staff, taps would be turned off and would not resume for the rest of the day. Apparently people are finding that
hashers and the general public don't mix and this is probably something that should have been covered when the organizers first approached the
venue. Sunday is the last full day of the
Interhash and last day of trails. today we decided to do one of the beach hashes as we heard good things about the end location and circle on the beach. Trail was OK with a fair mix of urban and suburban running and started at the Mt. Flora Lookout in Stirling.
The trail ended at a small park by the beach and the circle was a lot of fun with various accusations and humor (but still no songs). I was able to take a swim in the Indian Ocean. After we were done we headed back to the venue to party a bit more. There was more food and beer (of course) along with street entertainment and a fireworks conclusion. There was talk about doing an 11:50 PM nude hash run to spite the listed rules, however after a long weekend, people were exhausted and it got a little chilly the last evening, so nothing really happened.
After the venue shut down, several of us were heading to a room party. When we got to the hotel elevator, several of us piled inside including myself, Mams, Dr. PP,
MataHari, some Japanese tag-along, a security guard, and a few others. Apparently there were too many of us as the elevator actually got stuck between floors. We could open the elevator cab doors, but not the doors for the next floor. I tried for a while to figure out the mechanisms, but it was in vain and the hotel had to call out a technician at 1 o'clock in the morning to get us out.
Sparerib tried to help us out by sticking a
Camelbak full of ..
umm.. water, so that that was helpful. Mams and I both had water bottles in our hands but when someone asked for a drink we advised them that it probably wasn't the best idea as it was very, potent water (about 40 proof). After about 90 minutes of waiting the tech finally arrived and was able to free us. It was all part of the adventure I suppose.
