The amazing Weinstrasse trip! (inkluding the jungle-Hash)

Pictures and Comments by Chris.
The crowd is assembling in front of the Graz opera. 50 thirsty people are eager to sample some Sturm!
 
Rhys is warming up the crowd. Thanks to Rhys and Kay for organizing this amazing event!
 
Finally, the bus arrived at the first Buschenschank. Andreas can't wait for his first glass of Sturm!
 
The beautiful Südsteirische Weinstrasse! Is there a more scenic place to get drunk? If so, i'd like to know!
 
The crowd is settling in. Don't get too comfortable, there's still a whole Hash to do!
 
Ulli has discovered the playground and is about to get killed on the swing.
 
The Hash starts. Due to a lack of roads in the Weinstrasse area, Rhys has set the trail through the woods. I hope you guys have good shoes! (Hedi certainly has. She used to work in a shoe shop.)
 
City slicker Max needs help from Kay to overcome the forest's deadly obstacles.
 
Is that really a Hash? Seems more like a group of people looking for mushrooms.
 
Apart from delicious wine, the Weinstrasse also produces pumpkins. Kay looks hungry anyway...
 
Rosie in action. This Hash is for experienced Boy/Girlscouts only!
 
Ulli has found a safer part of the playground.
 
After an hour of chasing through the woods fighting bears and squirrels, Maria and Max enjoy a well earned glass of Sturm. Maria's plan is to actually drink all of those pitchers!
 
The second part of the Hash consists of the notorious circle. If you don't obey Kay's strict rules, you'll have to drink!
 
Never ever wear your brand new shoes to a Hash, because THAT's what's going to happen! Cheers guys!
 
wow! no comment necessary!
 
Ulli really likes the playground. Could this be connected with the fact that he's earned the prestigious 'Most pissed person' award in the meantime?
Keith doesn't look very happy yet. Maybe a few more glasses of Sturm will do the trick.
 
Mahlzeit Rhys! And could you please wake up Dee?
 
Off to the next Buschenschank! Maria is confused because all of a sudden she is seeing two cameras.
 
Judging from Kaska's face, the menu seems to be pretty good.
 
This highly intellectual game is called 'Ripl Dipl'. It requires the players to paint each other's faces black!
 
Chris and Rosie have obviously had their share of Sturm.
 
The next game is called 'who am I'. It also requires putting stuff onto one another's faces.
 
Hehe, he's never going to guess THAT.
 
Angie and Alban. You guys don't look drunk yet!
Neil certainly does!
 
People really shouldn't look that sober at 10pm at the Weinstrasse trip...
 
Dee has woken up again. But now Sonja seems a bit tired.
 
Irena and Nathan are studying the menu. What for? It's called STURM!
 
The 'most pissed person' award has moved on to Chris.
 
This is what i call 'advanced drinking'. After a Hash and 8 hours in a Buschenschank Kay is still able to give us a (half) hearty smile!
The most pissed person is drinking water!? Shame on you!!
