Embracing Elba

It's been a long time since the last time we fought for a cycle at the very end of the period, and that's how 2016.06 went.

A late-night operation encompassing Elba was completed in time for the checkpoint of 2 AM, securing the victory for us.

6 layers, for a total of 650+ kMU.
My part was destroying blue blockers, and the smell of burned resonator has never been sooo good.
The solid green view in front of my eyes when they closed was priceless:

Little new frogs grow...

Night action in Cecina to help new frogs @Viscido2000, @waltor02 and @hamza482 grow; @Viscido2000 also reached level 6!

Conquering Cecina to welcome a new frog

It's always a pleasure to welcome new Enlightened players. 

This time we're speaking about a frog from Cecina introduced to me by @DeathKillerITA, so, again, we thought we could welcome him by involving him in his first op in Cecina.

Welcome @Viscido2000!

The operation itself was nothing huge, but it was special in that it was actually something planned from scratch by our newcomer and, above all, he and @DeathKillerITA rode their bycicles up and down throughout Cecina at -2°C (28.4 °F) and without gloves!

This is dedication!

My part was some cleaning and creating the outer triangle: I was in my car and willing to drive them around, but at some point we needed to act simultaneously in different locations so they had to take their bikes.

Towns involved: Cecina (southmost area), San Pietro in Palazzi (suburb of Cecina), Marina di Cecina (suburb of Cecina)

Right side: 2.68 Km (1.67 mi)

Left side:  2.9 Km (1.81 mi)

Bottom side: 2.75 Km (1.71 mi)

M.U.: 957 + 1301 + 195 + 149 = 2602

Congratulations @DeathKillerITA and @Viscido2000!
