The Xacobeo.es website - displaying the new logo - has a useful link for
checking the weather along the routes.

I went back and looked at my photos and gleaned a few with the Flecha in

evidence. Most are primitive applications on surfaces which would not
lend 
themselves to the application of a High-Tech-Hoof. The subdued grays and

blues of the new iconery would absolutely disappear into the scenery.
You'd 
have lots of lost Peregrinos wandering the Spanish countryside. Ever
walked 
in the rain? How about in the dark? Dark and rain together? I think many
of 
us have. Navigating by lamplight in the early morning hours, looking for
the 
next clue that you're on track. But I digress ...

Here is a little slideshow of a few arrows along the Way. Click on the
link, 
and wait until the music loads, then click on the top left picture. When
you 
see the Cathedral (the ultimate arrow), you've arrived. The slideshow
loops 
and will start over from the beginning.

Hello you all,
A new Camino DVD ('no bed of roses') was mentioned in this venue a few
weeks ago.  I received it in Seville via Postal COD at a total cost of
32 Euros (About 40 U.S. Dlls).
The DVD I received is in  PAL format only; its contents are nice and
somewhat different.  The first part consists of about 50 minutes of
fairly frank and fairly in-depth interviews of some pilgrims. This part
contains subtitles in English. There is another part composed of about
150 still photographs, including some of the bull run in Pamplona (?).
There is an additional part with further interviews of the same
pilgrims. This part, however, does not include English subtitles, which
is unfortunate because I found some of the statements more informative
and open than in the first part. One of the pilgrims is a young
philosopher from Argentina and his knowledge of the symbology and
history of many Camino things is quite impressive. 
Another rather indulgent part of the DVD contains earlier video efforts
from the author-producer of the disc who spent some years in England
studying visual arts.
The DVD is not, and cannot be, as spectacular and complete as the 2 1/2
hour one made by the Brits and sponsored and narrated by Richard
Attenborough. That one is in a class of its own. I ordered it through
the net from the Saint James Confraternity and, astonishingly, I
received it in New York City in five days!. The amount charged for it
and postage was about 26 U.S. Dollars.
Also, the "no bed of roses" DVD does not, per se, follow the Camino.  As
mentioned before, the TV Spanish network (red es) produced a lovely DVD
in 2004 that does follow the route. Its name is "Camino de Santiago"
Paso a paso por la ruta Jacobea (Step by step on the Xacobean Route). It
sells for 10 Euros in the bookstores in Spain and it can also be ordered
through the net. It is quite lovely, and, step-by-step, through the
French Way.
For those of us who are avid collectors of things Camino the "bed of
roses" DVD is a nice addition, particularly, for me, because it contains
an astounding interview with the Brasilian poet and photographer, Lady
Foppa.  I have admired her greatly since her poem on the death of the
late Pope ("What now, John?"), and the stunning photograph of the Cruz
de Ferro illuminated by lightening that won her first prize in the
newspapers' photography contest.
Warm regards,

Rosina
I may still have Lady Foppa's poem somewhere, if you'd like to read it.
