Norman Darlo
In 2015 while visiting the famed French gardens at Marqueyssac we discovered that a one-kilometre horizontal climb along the cliff-face was freely available for visitors. Of course Josh and I jumped at the opportunity! It sure got the adrenalin pumping, and nobody better for it than me and my lad.
These photos were taken during the relatively easy parts of the climb. As you can imagine, during the hairier sections, I had neither the free hand nor the attention to spare, to be taking pictures with my phone! We enjoyed the climb so much that we returned a couple of days later to repeat the experience 🙂
Josh constantly argued that we limit ourselves unnecessarily, and he was always ready for new experiences. My son, my friend, Joshua Darlington (2000–2017).
Climbing, hiking, etc.. is loved.An enjoyable experience you had there, I suppose.
For sure, Cassy! An opportunity like that, you have to take it 🙂
Such amazing pictures you have here. Thank you for sharing the beautiful experience with us.
I’m happy you enjoyed accompanying us 🙂
youre the type of allocentric ?
i wanna try to do that someday…
Allocentric, qreynald? I had to check the meaning of that 🙂 I hope you get a chance to do this. It is so memorable.
Lovely post dad. Great memories x
Yeah. Really 😀
Wow Norman. What memories you have. That is all we have left and like you, it just does
not seem possible they are gone. Precious memories, what would we do without them.
And a handsome young man he was Norman. Hold onto these times and they will see
you through. I actually noticed your new profile pic and have not taken the time to comment.
Thank you for sharing Josh with us.
Thanks for looking, Carol, and for your kind and comforting (and true) words. I’m going through some particularly bad days just now.
I am so sorry Norman. I do understand. And I am here if you need to talk.
this girl is cute btw……
What is this crap?!? Can you actually read the post and comment respectfully and appropriately please
I have reported this now
I have no courage to do this. Beautiful pictures.
Thank you, Elenka. It was quite exhilarating!
Nice post and nice shots!
Talk about having ice in your veins and the courage of a lion to cliff climbing.
