Fw: [Iago] Sellos

[Felipe Sanchez]

The Spanish group, camino-de-santiagoayahoogroups.com, supplied two answers
to my query concerning the requirement of obtaining two "sellos" each day in
order to qualify for the "Compostela."

Michel of Pamplona writes it is generally understood that one "sello" per
day from the albergue where one spends the night is sufficient but has not
read this norm anywhere although is sure it exists.  A source of information
in regard to norms can be accessed in English with this URL:

The moderator, ALES, of the Spanish newsgroup adds the following:  During
the last part of 2001 the idea of two "sellos" was mentioned in the
Archicofradia but such was never required because in some cases it was
impossible to obtain two.  Unfortunately the idea has persisted without
being officially denied.

The main web page from which the above link was taken is as follows:

My gratitude to Michel and ALES.  Sanchez
