Plato’s Path: September 2019

Where will Plato go next? It’s up to you! Take Plato along on your treks across the globe. Snap a picture with Plato on a nature trail, at the top of a mountain or working on his tan at the beach. Send us your photos for a chance to be featured!

Thankfully, dinosaurs don’t need passports. To take Plato along for the ride, download and print your own Plato or find a paper Plato in your Publix Communication Center. Then, snap a pic and send it to corporate.communications@publix.com. Be sure to include your name, work location and photo caption.

Week 4

10

Do you hear what I hear? Plato enjoyed the sweet sounds of “Singing Tower,” a 205-foot, 60-bell carillon at Bok Tower Gardens in Lake Wales, Florida.

11

Plato was all about living that “lake life” during his visit to the crystal blue waters of Lake Nottely, nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Georgia.

12

All that glitters is not gold, except in Thailand, where it permeates many facets of Thai culture — from clothing to décor to thousands of distinctive Buddhist temples.  Plato experienced all of them on his trip to the heart of Southeast Asia.

Week 3

7

Compared to 65 million years ago, 17,000 years seems like yesterday for Plato! More than 600 cave paintings date to the Upper Paleolithic period in the Lascaux cave, which Plato visited while touring southwestern France.

8

Taking care of those who take care of us is one of Plato’s favorite ways to serve. He had the pleasure of bringing catered goodies to medical teams in Atlanta, Georgia, for their staff meetings.

9

The Bachalpsee Lake water in the Bernese Oberland in Switzerland is beautiful but chilly, so Plato opted to stay on dry land and take in the stunning views.

September Week 2

4

Plato checked off our nation’s capital from his summer vacation bucket list when he visited the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C., the tallest building in the world upon its completion in 1884.

5

Even though he was in sunny Florida, Plato still had to bundle up when he visited frozen food support associates at our Jacksonville warehouse.

6

Conquering a breathtaking hike up the Niederhorn Mountain in Switzerland led Plato to this spectacular view of the Sigriswiler Rothorn Mountain’s exhilarating peaks.

Week 1

1

Has anyone seen a glass slipper? Plato lost one while running around Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom in Lake Buena Vista, Florida.

2

Why did the dinosaur cross the road? Because the chicken wasn’t around yet! Plato tried his best jokes on the Queen’s Guard at Buckingham Palace in London, England.

3

Sunscreen, summertime and swimming — all staples of coastal living. Plato took a dip in the pool in St. Petersburg, Florida.
