From Pallerols to Andorra in 7 days

Jean Clément gives us his point of view on the passage of the Pyrenees

For me it was a beautiful and very special stay, since I did not expect to repeat this trip with such good weather; much better than 2 years ago, when I did it for the first time.

Wonderful stay, because the landscapes are breathtaking.

Reading the story of Saint Josemaria while contemplating the landscape, it was for me to be able to relive the desire to follow Christ, as Saint Josemaría did, and to give thanks to the Mother of Heaven.

On the other hand, this trip was special because everyone in the group have been extraordinary, for their courage to overcome difficulties:

Pierre-Emile, who overlapped to leave Paris and come to breathe and see the beauty of southern France and Spain …

Aldric, who thanks to his light weight and his great illusion, led the walk every day …

Joseph, the youngest of his family will in the future be a great researcher of blue and yellow marks and spiders …

Gabriel, who during all the crossing has been able to not have ramps, due to his Corsican blood …

Matthew, of Irish origin, almost managed to keep his skin white throughout his stay …

Emmanuel, could stay every day, except the last day that had to go …

Nacho, could support all this French cosmopolitan group while teaching them to play football …

Luis María and César, they managed not to get lost or hurt, as well as finding a way to communicate with each other … Hein, Igor !!!

Daniel, has achieved despite having a 3 cm sore on the sole of the foot thanks to an adaptation of the footwear and mud baths he did along the way …

Samuel, came to the end by a special grace …

And to conclude, Jean-Baptiste who simply managed not to kill anyone, break only three walking sticks, and be a good means of sanctification for all, he managed to overcome every morning the temptation to climb the 4×4 (though He arrived some afternoon with 1 hour of delay, but he finally always arrived …). All in all it was too intense !!!

It is for all this that it was very beautiful and special
