Mr Snail #1 was enjoying his slide on a cool evening after the first autumn rain.....
Ο κ. Σαλίγκαρος #1 απολάμβανε το γλίστρημά του ένα βράδυ μετά την πρώτη φθινοπωτινή βροχή..
When he met his friend Mr Snail #2. They had not met since last rain.
...όταν συθνάντησε τον φίλο του κ. Σαλίγκαρο #2. Είχαν να συναντηθούν από την προηγούμενη βροχή.
...They decided to slide together, or rather race each other to the end of the path....
..Αποφάσισαν να γλιστρήσουν μαζύ ή μάλλον να παραβγούν, μέχρι το τέλος του μονοπατιού...
When Mr Snail #2 veered off the path...
..Όταν ο κ. Σαλίγκαρος #2 ξέφυγε λίγο από το μονοπάτι...
..But eventually, they finished the race together and by unanimous decision of the judges, there was no clear winner. But they all agreed it was a good race.
..Αλλά τελικά τέλειωσαν τον αγώνα μαζύ, και ύστερα από ομόφωνη απάφαση των κριτών, δεν υπήρξε σαφής νικητής. Πάντως, όλοι συμφώνησαν πως ήταν ένας ωραίος αγώνας.

very nice shots :)
What glorious images and what a creative tale you gave these two beauties. I once had a pet snail that lived for 18 months as a friend~
Funny Snails story!! They're cute!!
Nice closeups. I was shooting one this last week and hard to keep a good focus , even at snails pace, going through the grass.
Haha that's cute!
I must admit that you managed to make snails look cute! I would have never thought! :D
Adorable! My kids like to pick up tons of snails and let them "race" through tiny lanes they've made with rocks. A wonderful pastime!
Δρομέας της ταχύτητας
και αθλητής σωστός
μα είναι και πανέμορφος
και σαν μπουμπουριστός.
Την καλησπέρα μου

This reminds me of when I was little and my cousin and I would each choose a snail and race them. Such fun.

To say it honestly...: I hoped the "blacky-snail" would win....he was my favourite..!!!!!!!
