weeks to get from Va. to Philadelphia. No cell phones, no phones, no
nothin'. But............it gave him time to think up some of the words for
the Declaration of Independence.</FONT></DIV>

Americans seem to worry more than pilgrims from other places is understandable
considering that there is an ocean between them and Spain and that there is
the ever present threat of a 9/11 on their mind.<BR>After reading all the pros
and cons I decided I would not take a phone, but to let the Camino unfold and
deal with situations as they arise. After all, people did the pilgrimage way
before there were phones, GPS or whatever and did survive and those who did
not make it would probably have dropped dead whether they had a phone or
not.<BR>With that I wish everybody a safe and memorable
pilgrimage.<BR>Leonie</FONT> </FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
