Grant...I am so sad....horrible Christmas Day news! to even imagine  that 
in our life time we will slowly see the evaporation of the paths of  our 
Camino.....and that my great great grandchildren will read about something  that 
once was and is no longer there due to 'modern times.'
 
Anyway, all the best to all of you in 2011

Spain has surpassed France as the country with  the most kilometers of 
high-speed rail. The Camino has been knocked about in  the process.

I forgot to mention the embalsas. The Yesa reservoir will  eventually 
inundate some of the traditional pathways in Aragon, .. see

On final approach on Camino Frances, look  to your right. That clear-cut 
eucalyptus forest is about to become a Poligono  Industrial (Industrial Tract).

Buen Camino,
