[at-l] Pilgrimage

[kclaus@earthlink.net (Karin Claus)]

Speaking of pilgrimages:
"The Camino de Santiago de Compostela" is a fascinating pilgrimage in Spain.
It is a medieval trail that goes from France, all the way through Spain to
Brazil.

Now, you hike village to village, and stay in small hostels in the
evening... and eat dinner in town.  It is blazed with yellow arrows.  Even
in the big cities you just follow the arrows, and it will lead you to a
hostel for the night.
There are a few books written about it, Shirley McLain wrote one, and a
Brazilian author made it really popular.

I would recommend either reading about it, or trying it, if you want that
"Monte Python" experience.
