Paris to Luxembourg to Cologne - 14th to 22 August 2005
The pilgrims travelled from Paris to Luxembourg and then onto Cologne. Accommodation was located and the beginning of the World Youth Week began. The highlights of the week included the opening mass and joining with thousands of people in welcoming Pope Benedict XVI . Some of our pilgrims were on the 'Oceania' boat to welcome the Pope to Cologne.
