I had planned a walk from Alcalali to Jalon for this week
However Jan went down with a
particularly nasty tummy bug
It started on Friday night and by
Saturday it was obvious she would not be able to do the walk
By Sunday she was still in bed all
day, and it was not clear that I would have to miss the walk
Fortunately Pierre offered to lead a
walk from Alcalali
So I did not have to cancel the walk
It was a lovely day, and I wondered
which walk he had done
Tina sent me a load of photographs on
Monday evening
I recognised the walk as one we
normally do from Jalon via the picnic site/play area
We normally class it as one of our “more
challenging” walks
This is because there is a more ascent
than normal
And even from Jalon it usually takes
about 4 hours
From Alcalali it would take another hour
I have no idea how long it took today
I recognised most of the route from
the photos, but not where they cross a chain barrier
Apparently this was due to an
unexpected “extension”
Also on Monday evening I received a
link to the photographs Jim had taken
So I had enough to start work on the
group Facebook
Just as I was about to post, a link
arrived from David
So I ended up with more photographs
than if I had actually done the walk
In fact I had too many, and had to choose from the three collection
I am assured that everyone enjoyed the
walk
And indeed they seem to have had a
great time judging from the photographs
I am hoping that Jan and I will be able to walk next week
Providing I do not catch the bug from
her before then
