Day 50 - 22/06/2007 Friday


Day 50 - 22/06/2007     Friday 

 

 

We never thought it would happen: 50 days without Madeleine. Solidarity the world over has been expressed today with the launch of balloons in every continent to remember Madeleine and other missing children. The event in Praia da Luz had considerable media interest as did many other releases the world over. Sean and Amelie released their balloons shortly after kate and I let go our 50 and we were pleased the media respected our wish for the twins not to be photographed any longer. Please send digital images and video of your local event to images@bringmadeleinehome.com 

 

We were not planning to say anything at the launch but there was such a large turnout from Portuguese TV who we have not spoken

to for some time that we decided to answer their questions. The beauty of the launch was the local and international dimension with media coverage spreading Madeleines image far and wide.

 

We have seen the video of the Ullapool (home of the website and my sister Phil) launch, Glasgow and extensive pictures from

 

Amsterdam. We very much look forward to seeing pictures from all the other venues. One of these balloons may just be found by someone who recognises Madeleine and alerts the authorities.
