This week’s run # 945 was on Long Hai Mountain at Minh Dam, with the down down at the Minh Dam base. Sixty-eight excited hashers rolled up at the home of the Hash the “Pacific Bia Tuoi”. After registrations were complete and the hash buses, two of them were jam packed with Sagota beer, softies and food, we all set off for Minh Dam. With dark overcast skies we reached Ba Ria just as the heavens opened and the rain poured down in buckets. But undeterred we reached Minh Dam, luckily the weather had cleared, after a short chalk talk, we set off up the trail. Up we went, up the steps higher and higher, then after a sharp left turn, down we went. With speed we slid down the mountain side, coated in mud we reached the bottom of the mountain. With excitement we turned right and up we went to the lookout on the top of the mountain. After the usual selfies were taken, we raced along the path down heading down the mountain. With pungent aroma of Sagota beer in the air. we raced down the path down the steps along the path to the down down spot. With great excitement we ripped into the icy cold Sagota beer, chomped on the fresh banh mi, enjoyed the tasty sandwiches, and finished off with Fruit platters. But time went so fast, the group photo was taken, the circle ensued, with 68 hashers rounded up in a circle, Samson delivered a magnificent rendition of circle songs and frivolity prevailed, Sagota beers were swilled. Suitably lubricated it was time for the hashers to return home on the two hash buses in the late afternoon – On On
