WYD Toledo - Goodbye Toledo!

The days in the dioceses activities here in Toledo have provided us with a perfect way in which to sample the Spanish culture in a very special way. We've shared in all of the things set up by the Parish of San José Obrero, had a taste of family life with our hosts and met some amazing people.

This morning it was time to say goodbye to them all and many of us were sad to be leaving them behind. We have all been accepted into the parish here as if it were our own and this morning there were even some tears from the surrogate Mam's and Dad's who had been looking after us for the last few days.

Father Alberto was there to say goodbye to everyone along with his very cute altar boys and even some of the parishioners who hadn't acted as hosts turned up to wish us well as we set off for Madrid.

We may meet some of our fellow pilgrims during our time in Madrid but with an anticipated 2million young people in attendance the chances are slim so all that was left was to say goodbye and wish everyone the very best for what is still to come in our pilgrimage. Thank you Toledo for a wonderful 5 days in your parish, you have made us all so welcome and we won't forget our experiences we shared with you.
