24 February 2022 – Tour of Jalon

We spent a very enjoyable afternoon exploring Jalon

You would think there was nothing new after living here 16 years

But in fact we discovered quite a few new and interesting facts

The afternoon was arranged by Tina

And the group was led by Betty

Betty has a wealth of knowledge about the surrounding area

With a group of friends she has started a new group

The aim is to offer a series of walks around villages in the Jalon Valley

Each group is limited to eight people

Today’s group were all from our Monday Ramblers group

It was strange to see them all in “civilian” clothes

Not a pair of walking boots in sight

It was interesting to discover new information about familiar sights

And also to learn more about the history of the valley

Betty is a retired teacher

And she delivered the information in an interesting and easy to follow manner

The tour was about two hours long

And we were fortunate to have a warm and sunny afternoon

We ended with a drink in the main square

Thanks to Tina and Betty for an enjoyable and informative afternoon
