Where's the hare?

 

There he is...

 

 

Clitoria has a word - but he's been preparing the meal for us

 

OK, just follow the trail (white flour blobs) - if it hasn't been all eradicated by the dog strollers

 

And it's all flat and downhill with no shiggy

Going southwards on Kifisias Avenue.
Go through/past Kifisia.
Get into the left-hand traffic lane & then turn left at the KAT traffic lights - directly into the Syngrou Park car park entrance.

NOTE: If you reach the Nova Odeon Cinema complex on you right-hand side you have gone too far. Turn round here, as there are traffic lights, else you may

Take the Piraeus - Kifisia line and get off at the KAT (hospital) station. Once out of the station, walk up the road at right angles to the railway tracks in the
direction of the KAT hospital. You will immediately pass the Venetis store on your right. Keep straight and in 450 metres you reach Kifisias Ave.
Immediately across the road is the Syngrou car park entrance. Remember, this line is slow so leave plenty of time.
